Convenient Access from Downtown Davenport
From the riverfront blocks around City Hall, Anderson Dental is about 8 minutes north by car, which makes it an easy choice when you want a dentist near Downtown Davenport without fighting for a spot on a crowded schedule. Our single office sits in north-central Davenport, still in Scott County, two dentists practice there together, and the first appointments of the day begin at 7:00 AM Monday through Thursday.
Leave Davenport City Hall at 226 W 4th St, jog onto Main Street, and take West 5th Street one block east to Brady Street (US 61 Business). Turn left and ride Brady north for about three miles, through the Kimberly Road crossing, then turn left onto East 46th Street. You will be at 141 E 46th St, Davenport, IA 52806 after 3.4 miles, just off the Brady Street and Welcome Way one-way pair. NorthPark Mall, a quarter mile to the south-southwest, is the landmark most drivers recognize.
Brady Street begins at the edge of downtown, so almost the whole drive is one long street. If you live closer to the park or farther east, see our pages for the Village of East Davenport and Vander Veer Park.
Why Downtown Davenport Workers and Loft Residents Choose Us
Downtown Davenport keeps a full calendar. The River Bandits play at Modern Woodmen Park beside the Centennial Bridge, the Figge Art Museum anchors 2nd Street, and the Skybridge links LeClaire Park to 2nd Street. Between work, ballgames and the riverfront, a dental visit has to fit into the cracks of the day.
That is why the 7:00 AM start matters so much here. A cleaning booked for the first chair of the morning can be done before most downtown offices open, and the drive back down Brady Street takes only minutes. People who work in downtown offices, shops and restaurants can keep their schedules intact.
The district carries a lot of history for its size. Davenport was founded on May 14, 1836, and City Hall, a Richardsonian Romanesque landmark built in 1895, still faces 4th Street. Nearby, the Main Library at 321 Main Street is part of the Davenport Public Library, and the Figge Art Museum holds Grant Wood's only self-portrait. Downtown Davenport is a place people come back to, and we hope our patients feel the same about us.
Downtown also has a growing number of people who live where they work. Renovation work and new loft housing have brought residents back into the district, alongside commercial blocks dating from the 1880s and 1890s and the two tallest buildings in the Quad Cities. For loft residents, a practice that handles routine care, orthodontics and urgent repairs under one roof means fewer offices to keep track of.
What Downtown Davenport Schedules Mean for Your Teeth
Busy schedules tend to push prevention down the list. A skipped cleaning becomes a skipped year, and small cavities grow while nobody is watching. Booking the next checkup before you leave the office is the simplest fix, and early slots make it realistic for Downtown Davenport professionals.
Coffee on the walk to work and a glass of wine at a riverfront patio both leave their mark on enamel. Whitening and cosmetic touch-ups make sense for people who meet clients all day. Clear aligners appeal to the same crowd because they come out for meetings and meals.
Accidents happen downtown too. A foul ball, a slip on the sidewalk or a bite into something hard at lunch can crack a tooth without warning. The office offers same-day emergency exams, evaluation and diagnosis, so a painful problem gets looked at quickly rather than after days of worry.
Nerves keep plenty of busy adults away from the dentist longer than they would like to admit. The practice offers conscious sedation for anxious patients, and sedation for anxious patients is one of Dr. Anderson's stated areas of focus. If a past experience has made you put off care, a calm first visit is a good way to restart without committing to anything on the spot.
When a cracked tooth needs a crown, CEREC same-day crowns can often finish the job in one visit. That saves a second morning away from your desk, which counts for a lot when your calendar is already full.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Anderson Dental from Downtown Davenport, and how do I get there?

Can I get a cleaning done before my downtown workday begins?

Can I see what a smile makeover would look like before starting?
Yes. The practice offers digital smile simulation and treatment planning, which shows a projected result before any cosmetic work begins. A smile makeover can combine treatments such as whitening, bonding or porcelain veneers, planned around your own goals. That preview helps downtown professionals decide with confidence before they commit time or money to a new smile.
What should I do if I crack a tooth?
Call the office as soon as you can and save any broken piece in a clean container. Rinse gently with warm water and avoid chewing on that side until you are seen.

Yes. The team walks you through costs before treatment begins, so you can weigh your options without guessing.
