Pediatric and adult airway care, orthodontics,
and preventive dentistry — thoughtfully delivered in Ankeny
At Briarwood Dental, everything we do starts with listening. We take the time to understand your concerns, answer your questions, and learn what matters most to you and your family before recommending any care.
We believe great dentistry is about more than treating teeth — it’s about supporting overall health, comfort, and confidence at every stage of life. That’s why our approach focuses on prevention, education, and thoughtful planning, so you always know what’s happening and why.
From your child’s first visit to ongoing care for adults, our goal is to create an experience that feels calm, respectful, and centered around you — not rushed, pressured, or one-size-fits-all.
We take time to understand your concerns, goals, and what matters to you.
Your care plan is personalized, clearly explained, and built around your needs – never a one-size-fits-all.
We focus on thoughtful treatment that supports comfort, confidence, and health
Our goal is lifelong wellness, with guidance, and preventive care at every stage of life.
Meet Doctor Angelina Blass, DDS.
Dr. Angelina Blass is the owner and dentist at Briarwood Dental, where she and her team provide comprehensive, family-centered care with a strong focus on airway health, jaw development, and whole-body wellness. She graduated from the University of Iowa College of Dentistry in 2004 and brings over two decades of experience along with advanced training in dental sleep medicine and airway-focused dentistry.
Dr. Blass takes a whole-person approach to dentistry, focusing on root causes and prevention rather than simply treating symptoms — with a special passion for helping children sleep and breathe better. When she’s not in the office, she enjoys spending time with her four children, traveling, and continuing her education to bring the most current, evidence-based care to her patients.
