Gateway Dental is a rare gem. It's not often that one can say that they look forward to a dentist appointment, but I actually do! So does my son, so it's not just me.
Both Dr. Burds and Dr. Roszhart are professional, knowledgeable, and friendly, and have excellent communication skills. The entire staff are very capable and experienced in their field, and I have never had anything less than a pleasant experience with them.
I just can't recommend this office enough. ♥️

Fantastic. Great patient care from the chair to front desk staff. I have been going to Gateway dental since 2008. All visits have been handled with attention, professionalism, care and kindness. Although some procedures are not too fun, the team is truly top notch!

Excellent care! Professional and thoughtful! Best cleanings we’ve ever had and the dentist’s we had were outstanding! The front desk administrators were very pleasant, friendly and interactive. We didn’t feel like just another patient or client.

Who can say they look forward to going to the dentist but that’s how the entire team at Gateway Dental make you feel. They are personable and efficient throughout the visit. Dr. Burds has saved me thousands in orthodontics by addressing my daughters’ dental health early and preventing the need for braces. That’s very helpful. Thank you!

I have a wonderful dentist; Dr Burds, who really seems to love his job, and understands great customer service. I have the best dental hygienist, & she has taught me the sea-salt trick that will forever make my dental experience less stressful. So grateful to have found a place where my experience is positive, the employees really like each other, and are very helpful . The front desk employees are also really great, as well. Forever client. Thank you for a great smile.

About Gateway Dental Group
Gateway Dental Group is a family and restorative dental practice in downtown Des Moines, Iowa, located at 1540 High Street, Suite 201. The office provides dental implant placement and dental implant restorations along with preventive care, cosmetic dentistry, clear aligner treatment, emergency dentistry, periodontal gum disease treatment, and dental prosthetics such as crowns, bridges, and dentures. For patients replacing missing teeth, the practice guides the implant process from placement through the final restoration, and temporary crowns can be placed while the implant heals and bonds with the jawbone.
Beyond tooth replacement, the practice personalizes care for chronic teeth grinding, jaw joint disorders sometimes called TMJ disorders, and snoring or obstructive sleep apnea, including custom oral appliances. Patients can schedule appointments online, and the office works with each patient on payment and financing options to fit their budget.
