What the record tells you
Westown Pediatric Dentistry, the trading name of Applewhite Dental Iowa PC, is an NPI registry record for a dental organization at 4090 Westown Pkwy Ste B1 in West Des Moines, Iowa 50266. CMS issued NPI 1467948174 on 5 July 2018, and the practice last updated its own entry on 29 July 2019. That was 7 years ago, so treat the phone number and the suite number as unconfirmed until someone answers. CMS records it as a subpart of a larger organization, so billing and pricing may follow the parent's policies.
It is registered under 3 dental taxonomy codes: Dentist (122300000X), General practice dentistry (1223G0001X), Pediatric dentistry (1223P0221X). That puts it in 2 categories on this site, led by pediatric dentistry. A practice that registers more than one category is telling CMS it does more than one kind of dental work at this address, which is why it has a page here rather than a row. No other address in the registry carries this name, though a practice trading under a chain brand often registers each office under its own legal name, so check the brand as well. One other dental record shares the street address: Iowa Periodontics, P.C..
West Des Moines holds 45 registered dental practices inside the Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA area, which has 235 in total on the Iowa side and ranks 1st in the state. 7 of the West Des Moines records also register pediatric dentistry, so this is one of several local options in that category. Across the metro the mix runs general dentistry 70.2%, dental clinic or center 16.2%, pediatric dentistry 7.2%. The closest other registered practices are Iowa Periodontics, P.C. (0 miles, West Des Moines), Parkway Periodontal Group PC (0 miles, West Des Moines) and Sharpe Family Dentistry, P. C. (0.1 miles, West Des Moines), with 2 more inside 0.1 miles.
On our figures a routine adult cleaning in Iowa runs $90 to $130 cash and scaling and root planing $160 to $250 per quadrant, against a US average of $125. This practice's own prices are not in the registry and never will be: NPPES holds identifiers, not fees. Call (563) 582-1448 and ask for the cash price on code D1110, whether the exam and X-rays are included, and whether they run a membership plan if you have no insurance.

What to ask when you call
- The cash price for D1110, a routine adult cleaning, and whether the exam (D0120) and X-rays (D0274) are inside or outside that number.
- Whether you need scaling and root planing before a routine clean, and the per-quadrant price for D4341 or D4342 if so.
- Whether they run an in-house membership plan, and what it covers against what it costs a year.
- Whether they are taking new patients and how far out the next hygiene appointment is.
- The practice license, with your state dental board. An NPI is a billing identifier and proves nothing about licensing.
CMS NPPES NPI data file, August 2026, snapshot 10 August 2026. US federal public data (FOIA-disclosable, no charge). CMS NPI files. NPI registry records, status as reported by CMS in the August 2026 data dissemination file. NPPES is an identifier registry, not a license register: an NPI does not validate that a practice is licensed, accredited or currently open. Practices maintain their own NPPES entries. Every page shows the date the record was last updated; addresses and phone numbers are as self-reported and are not verified by us. This page describes a registry record. It is not a review, an endorsement or a check on Westown Pediatric Dentistry.
Price figures are our own, last verified April 2026. State averages are our estimates compiled from FAIR Health regional cost data and CMS Medicare fee schedules; the ADA discontinued its national Survey of Dental Fees in 2023, so no national fee survey exists. Treat them as a starting point and call two or three offices for an actual quote.
