From Lindsay Park at 2205 E 11th St, follow East River Drive (US 67) a short way, turn up Mound Street, and pick up East 11th Street to Jersey Ridge Road. Jersey Ridge carries you north for nearly two miles to East Kimberly Road (US 6), where you turn left and head west about a mile and a half. A right onto Brady Street and a left onto East 46th Street bring you to 141 E 46th St, Davenport, IA 52806, a total of 4.3 miles. The office sits just off the Brady Street and Welcome Way pair, a short distance north of NorthPark Mall.

Restoration Is Something East Davenport Understands
The Village began in 1851 as "Upper Davenport," laid out by founders Hildreth and Witherwax at a river bend known as Stubb's Eddy. Sawmills here processed logs rafted down the Mississippi, and the town joined Davenport in the 1850s. Much of the building stock dates from 1848 to 1910, and the district earned a National Register listing on March 17, 1980, with 145 contributing properties across 72 acres.
Walk along the shops and restaurants of East Davenport today and you see what careful restoration can do. Restored Civil War-era buildings now hold specialty shops, restaurants and taverns. We bring the same mindset to teeth: keep what is sound, rebuild what is damaged, and replace only what cannot be saved.
Lindsay Park ties the neighborhood's past to its present. During the Civil War it served as the parade ground for Union troops at Camp McClellan, established in August 1861, and today it hosts the annual Riverssance Festival of Fine Art. The City of Davenport's Lindsay Park page lists its playgrounds, courts and Channel Cat water taxi landing. For many East Davenport households, the park is the natural place to start any trip north.
A restoration mindset is practical for anyone with fillings or crowns placed many years ago. Old restorations wear, chip and leak at the edges over time. A thorough exam shows which ones are still doing their job and which ones need attention before they fail.
A Dental Checklist for East Davenport Neighbors
Start with the basics. Regular cleanings and exams remain the single most useful habit for keeping natural teeth, and the 7:00 AM start time makes them easier to fit before work. If you have been away from the dentist for a while, a first visit with X-rays and a full exam gives you a clear picture of where things stand.
Next, look at any gaps. A missing back tooth can let the teeth beside it drift and tip, which changes your bite over time. Dental implants and implant-supported options can fill those spaces, and Dr. Anderson handles both the surgical and restorative stages in the same office.
Comfort deserves its own line on the list. Some East Davenport residents have avoided the dentist because of nerves, and that is more common than people think. Conscious sedation is available for anxious patients, so longer appointments can feel far more manageable.
Finally, think about the look of your smile. Porcelain veneers can cover chips, stains or small gaps on front teeth, and they are designed to match the teeth around them. They work well for people who want a refreshed smile without orthodontic treatment.
Getting outdoors helps too. Lindsay Park covers 31 acres, with two playgrounds, a softball diamond, basketball courts and access to the Riverfront Recreation Trail along the Mississippi. A fall on those courts can chip a front tooth, and that is exactly the kind of repair our restorative and cosmetic care is built for.
What a Dentist Near the Village of East Davenport Can Restore
Restorative Dentistry
Fillings and crowns repair teeth worn by time or damaged by decay. For East Davenport homeowners with decades-old dental work, we check each restoration and explain what needs attention first. CEREC crowns can often be finished in one visit.
Dental Implants
An implant replaces a missing tooth root and supports a natural-looking crown. Dr. Anderson provides both implant surgery and the restoration on top. GALILEOS 3D imaging helps plan placement with care.
Sedation Dentistry
Conscious sedation helps nervous patients relax through treatment. It is especially helpful for longer restorative or implant visits. Dr. Anderson belongs to the Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation.
Preventative Dentistry
Cleanings and exams protect your natural teeth and the work already in your mouth. Riverside walkers and Village shop owners alike can book the first chair of the morning. Small problems found early stay small.
If you are interested in a cosmetic upgrade as well, our page on porcelain veneers explains how they are planned and placed.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Anderson Dental from the Village of East Davenport, and how do I get there?
From Lindsay Park, the office is 4.3 miles away, roughly a 10-minute drive. The route runs north on Jersey Ridge Road, west on Kimberly Road, then onto Brady Street and East 46th Street. Neighbors comparing options for a dentist near the Village of East Davenport will find it a simple crosstown trip, with a little extra time at rush hour.
Do the dentists keep up with new techniques?
Yes. Dr. Matthew Anderson travels extensively for continuing education and belongs to groups such as the American Academy of Implant Dentistry and the American Academy of Computerized Dentistry. Dr. Andy Brill, DDS, earned his degree from the University of Iowa College of Dentistry in 2022 and trained in CEREC digital dentistry and Invisalign, so patients from East Davenport get both experience and recent training.
What should I do if a filling or crown comes loose?
Call the office and keep the crown or the broken piece if you have it. Avoid chewing on that side and keep the area clean until you are seen. A loose restoration can leave the tooth sensitive or open to decay, so an exam shows whether it can be cemented back in place or needs to be replaced.
What are my options for replacing a missing tooth?
A dental implant is often the most natural-feeling replacement for a single missing tooth. Dr. Anderson provides both the surgical and restorative parts of implant care, and new patients can begin with a free dental implant consultation. Other restorative options are discussed too, so you can compare before deciding.
Do I need a mouthguard for sports?
Yes, for most contact and ball sports a mouthguard is a smart choice. Elbows, falls and stray balls can chip or loosen teeth, and a guard absorbs much of that force. If a tooth does get hurt, save any broken piece and call the office, which offers same-day emergency exams, evaluation and diagnosis about 10 minutes from Lindsay Park without leaving Scott County.
