Dr. Matthew Bednar has been providing family dental care in Polk City from 1982 to 2001 and in Johnston, IA, from 2000 till the present. We have many of our original patients. Dr. Bednar is located in Foxboro Square at the corner of 86th Street and 62nd Avenue for the past 12 years. He and his staff strive to provide a comfortable atmosphere for adults and children. We offer a state of the art facility and provide excellent patient care. Dr. Bednar will explain all of your treatment options so you can make an informed treatment decision. We offer: • Cosmetic dentistry • All glass crowns and metal based crowns • Implants and veneers • Composite restorations that help reinforce your teeth after they need to be restored • Silver fillings may help you split teeth since it does not bond to tooth structure • Tooth extraction and periodontal (gum) surgery • Dentures and implant crown construction We love to see kids and we can start when they are two. It is best to be cavity-free and prevention starts at home. If you limit sugar, brush thoroughly for two minutes three times a day, floss or water pick and use a little extra fluoride, you will never experience new decay. Many of the medications people take may dry your mouth, making it easier for the bacteria to stick to teeth, leading to rampant decay. Simple water intake many times a day and custom fluoride trays will improve avoiding these conditions immensely. Call us today for an appointment.

They explain and good results

I had many old liver fillings from when I was a kid. I'm 54 now. My teeth have always been sensitive to fold for years. I've replaced all for quadrants of old fillings because after the first area, my sensitivity was almost eliminated in my whole mouth. Thanks Dr. Bednar. My mouth has never felt or looked so well.

Great service

Dr Bednar has akways taken care of our family for close to thirty years. He is the most thorough and educating dentist I have ever known. Dr Bednars Goals are that you are the most important person that take care of your teeth and he want you to be cavity free. Many of my neighbors see him also. Some have needed little care some their smiles have been transformed with veneers and he has great expertise with routine and complicated treatments.
While some clients don't like owing monies after services rendered every effort is given to explain the financials but insurance carriers are making that more difficult.
Some patients may have treatments and having neglected their teeth my not have a successful outcome but that doesn't mean or indicate that every treatment is suucessful.
I would recommend Dr. Bednar for anyone seeking a caring gentle pain free talented dentist.

good dentist

I have had excellent dental care and so have my children and grandchildren. Dr. Bednar explains everything in detail and speaks to the parents when my grandchildren are done with there appointments. He answers any questions they might have.

i come from boston

All my experiences from Dr. Bednar have been great. All ofthe staff try to explain costs involved with changing insurance situations, the doctor has provided me excellent care and advice for twenty years, most of my friends see dr. Bednar also. He has been understanding, explains procedures well and I have never had a problem or a complication with any of his treatment. He tries to be the best and make his patients comfortable. he care about patients and their dental health

Great family and general dentist

Dr Bednar spends a lot of the appointment explaining what he is doing and what he sees. I wanted to post a comment because my experience was has always been pleasant and very much contrary to some previous reviews. It seems more likely that those with negative reviews have are angry because of the cost of dental care (or any medical care) than the quality of service. I always get laughing gas, but I know my insurance doesn't cover it. Maybe we should be reviewing our insurance companies instead!

Do NOT go there if there is any other dentist in town.

This is the worst dentist ever. The whole experience at Bednar's office was unhappy. Do NOT go there if there is any other dentist in town.Bednar may seem to be very nice when you first meet him, however, if you have any complain, he will be a different person.Bednar tries to get as much money as he could, he really doesn't care about his patients. We were charge $350+ for a cavity filling treatment and laughing gas for my kid. He had a similar treatment last year, and we only paid ~$70 for that. I don't know why Bednar charged so much.The worst thing was, my kid had a fever after the treatment and his lips swelled a lot. We didn't know why, but when I called Bednar the next day, he told he didn't know why that happend! He was the dentist who provided the treatment, and he didn't have any idea why?The other thing was, they asked us to pay in front of the desk before we left his office. I called our insurane company, and I was told that it was really weired. An in-net provider s

I would not recommend to take the dental appointment with him if you are new patient. He charged me extra dollars for the unnecessary checkup in my bill.

Bednar has his own agenda

Bednar gave me the incorrect filling, poor root canal (repeating problems), tries to get as much money as possible from customer, does not consult with parents during and after child visits.
