As invested members of our community, we believe that our reputation speaks for itself. We uphold it every day by treating patients with honesty, integrity, and in the way we would want our own families to be treated.

We welcome every member of your family to become part of our family at Young General Dental. We follow the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommendation that children have their first dental visit early—between six months and one year of age. While this may seem early for kids since they just got their first teeth, our goal is to create a positive experience for kids right from the start.
Early childhood dental visits allow Dr. Trung Phan to monitor your child’s development, share helpful tips to keep little smiles healthy, and take the fear out of the dental office.
Your child’s “happy visit” will include child-friendly language and a fun ride in the chair. We will try to get a peek at your child’s teeth if they cooperate. Otherwise, we will let your little one hold a toothbrush and show them their teeth in the mirror.
Kids’ dental visits are also a great time to discuss dental development, including:
We welcome you to bring your child into your routine dental visit as well. Dr. Phan is a father himself, and he has a special gift for putting kids at ease.
At Young General Dental, we understand that emergencies sometimes pop up, which is why we reserve time in our daily schedules to take care of patients in pain or who have an accident.
Sometimes, it’s tough to know if your dental emergency requires an immediate trip to our Des Moines dental office or if it can wait until the next business day. Our team will guide you through the dental emergency process every step of the way.
Common dental emergencies we treat include:
Dr. Trung Phan even provides advanced emergency dentistry services, including root canals and extractions when necessary. Our entire team prioritizes comfort and will never make you feel guilty about outstanding treatment or a dental issue that got out of hand.
It is best to contact our team as soon as you notice a change to your oral health even if you have never been to our dental office before. We welcome new patients. Dental pain rarely resolves on its own and tends to worsen when left untreated. Putting off necessary treatment can lead to tooth loss or more complex procedures than if you came in right away.
We use the latest technologies like digital x-rays, and our intraoral cameras help you see what Dr. Phan sees when he examines your teeth. With intraoral cameras, Dr. Phan can share images with you on a monitor. This helps you make decisions, have a better understanding of treatment plans, and allows for better communication between you and your Des Moines dentist.
We believe knowledge is power, and showing you what’s happening in your mouth can help you make the best decision for yourself.
We love how Des Moines has grown and includes so many diverse cultures. Our dental practice is committed to treating each patient with respect and genuine kindness. You deserve a dental team that will help you achieve a beautiful, healthy smile without judgment or bias. Everyone is welcome at Young General Dental is Des Moines.
Our dental office is centrally located. You will find us on the north side of Douglas Avenue between 49th and 50th Streets—near Java Joe's and Donut Hut. We also offer on-site parking.
While we accept many insurance plans, Dr. Phan wants your dentistry to be a decision that is unhampered by the restrictions imposed by many insurance companies. He will always be honest and respect your choice. We will maximize your insurance benefits and help you fit your dentistry into your budget with our in-house financing and membership plan.
