This is a great place to get your work done! They take their time to do the job right. Very low key and low pressure! You are given options, which is seldom done anymore. All procedures are reviewed by someone else and you are given the opportunity to chose the option that suites you. Any concerns are address quickly when you call, getting you in asap to take care of them. I highly recommend getting your work done here! The lower cost helps too!

The staff is friendly and courteous. I have never had to wait past the time scheduled. All procedures are explained well and they take very good care of you once you are in the chair. I would highly recommend them to anyone especially those who have a "dental" fear issue.

I was going in to have a tooth pulled and knew that they might have some difficulty accomplishing this as my tooth had some cracks in it. The student and his assistant was amazing. They were very caring and when my tooth did not come out liked plan, he knew exactly what to do. Even though he was confident, he still would ask the instructor before moving forward. I would recommend the University of Iowa College Dentistry to anyone. Thank you for taking very good care of me.

I went in on an emergency basis, they were very accommodating to get me in as quickly as possible. I ended up having two extractions. The staff were respectful and helped put me at ease, everyone from the receptionist to the dental students to the doctors themselves. I will be going back for any other work I need done.

I was having issues with my gums for a while and Everytime I was able to get in the problem would have been gone by that time. Luckily someone cancelled and I was able to come in and actually show them what's been going on with my mouth and they told what was happening... After all this time I finally get answers. Thank you so much Drs, y'all did an amazing job with the solution to my problem.

I have had only positive experiences at the College. Two different occasions I've had to have teeth extracted, and both times I've been treated well. Professional, pleasant, and empathetic people both times. I'm glad to say I've made the College of Dentistry my go-to place for dental care.

Came here for my tooth pain. The student took a look and told me they gonna put a crown on my tooth. Then the doctor came over and got told with everything. All he said was “ok, I trust you” The dentist who was suppose to supervise the students didn’t even took a look at me! I felt very uncomfortable and went to an actual dentist and found out my tooth was actually fine. I was lucky and made the right decision. Otherwise I would have had a crown on my perfectly normal tooth! Avoid this place kid you wanna do any advanced teeth work other than cleaning.

I think they are very professional and even if they are students they enjoy what they do because they learn as they go. There's always an instructor watching them to make sure they do things correctly. They called me and booked my daughter for a surgery when someone else cancelled. They even called days after the surgery to make sure my little one was doing okay! I highly recommend them!

I called the hospital of dentistry after my extraction was done wrong i needed stitches to fully close my suture but the new dentist i had did not put them in here it is 3 months later & its still open you’d think they have a seasoned dentist check their work or something ? and the nurse manager Elizabeth was rude & disturbed that i called lol like i want to call professionals about their work? and drive another 45 minutes away to fix their mistake the place is a mess.
