Dr. Chad Johnson’s presence in dentistry is profoundly shaped by an innate compassion for his patients and a boundless passion for his craft. A native of Des Moines, Iowa, Chad’s voyage into dentistry was chosen not for academic reasons but from a personal revelation he experienced after a basketball accident in eighth grade. It was a moment that illuminated the profound impact of dental health and aesthetics on a person’s well-being.
The Art and Science of Smile Design
At the heart of Chad’s professional ethos is a belief in dentistry as a blend of art and science, a perspective he embraced early on and which continues to guide his approach to patient care. This ethos is palpable in every restored smile and renewed confidence his work brings forth, embodying a dedication to not merely treating teeth but nurturing the human spirit.
Enhancing Lives Through Dental Excellence
With every implant placed, Dr. Johnson offers his patients more than a dental solution; he gifts them a renewal of life’s simple pleasures-eating, smiling, speaking-with ease and confidence. These moments of transformation, often profound for his patients, mirror the fulfillment Chad finds in his calling-a reflection of a career built not on accolades, but on the sincere love for enhancing lives through dental excellence.
Orthodontic Treatment and Achieving the Perfect Smile
Having a beautiful smile is becoming increasingly important and having straight teeth is high up on the list. You don’t need to have expensive veneers to get the perfect smile. Not only do straight teeth look better, but straight teeth also equal healthier teeth. If your teeth are crooked or over crowded it can make flossing and brushing difficult and can lead to dental problems such as decay and gum disease.
Orthodontic treatment can not only help boost your self-confidence but can give you a healthy new smile. Our practice recognizes that adults and children have different needs, and require a different level of attention and care so we will work with you to ensure that your needs are met with respect and understanding.

Today’s orthodontic treatment options include a wide variety of braces that are not only comfortable but are more aesthetically pleasing. Schedule an appointment for an orthodontic evaluation. The most common time for orthodontic treatment usually begins between the ages of 11 and 15. By the age of 12, most of the permanent teeth have erupted and are settled in place. This means that the orthodontist can now easily identify crooked teeth, gaps and bad bites.
The adolescent age is also a good time for orthodontic treatment as they are often excited to begin orthodontic treatment because they see their friends getting braces or Invisalign as well. Orthodontic treatment is not just for teenagers anymore. A-List celebrities like Tom Cruise and Faith Hill are being photographed on the red carpet with braces, and the negative perception of adults in braces is rapidly disappearing. According to the American Association of Orthodontists, one in five orthodontic patients are actually over the age of 21, showing that it is no longer taboo.

Restorative Options: Fillings and Crowns
There are many types of filling materials available, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. You and your dentist can discuss the best options for restoring your teeth. A crown (or cap) is a covering that encases the entire tooth surface restoring it to its original shape and size. Although there are several types of crowns, porcelain (tooth colored crown) are the most popular, because they resemble your natural teeth.
You will receive care instructions for your teeth and trays, and be encouraged to visit your dentist regularly to help maintain a beautiful, healthy, white smile.
