“Upon arrival I was greeted by Lisa at the front desk who is always so cheerful. Next the hygienist Sabrina put me to ease by kindly answering some questions before my cleaning began. Next I met Dr. Jenni who explained why she was there and asked if I had any questions. I left the dentist feeling good with a fresh and clean smile. Thank you Altoona Smiles!”
Originally from Ankeny, Iowa, Dr. Jenni attended the University of Iowa for undergraduate studies followed by graduating from the College of Dentistry in 2015. Dr. Jenni first practiced dentistry in Phoenix, AZ for three years where she established a passion for high quality dentistry and patient comfort.
Dr. Jenni moved back to central Iowa in 2018 to be closer to her heart – family, friends, and home. Since moving back to Iowa, Dr. Jenni married her husband Andrew in May of 2019. Time outside of work is filled with golf, home DIY projects, gardening, volunteering with the Boys & Girls Club of Central Iowa, and hours of entertainment from her two dogs Billie and Rosie.
Dr. Jenni is happy to have found a home as a dentist here at Altoona Smiles since 2020 and be able to continue that high quality of care. She strives to provide patients with comprehensive care including removable dentures, implant restorations, and Invisalign therapy. Dr. Jenni believes in helping people achieve their dental goals in a comfortable, friendly environment.

Dr. Nicole and Emily are simply amazing! They do whatever it takes to make you feel comfortable. They go that extra mile to ensure you have the best care!
From someone who rarely went to the dentist to now going every 6 months, I definitely recommend Altoona Smiles!! My hygienist, Emily makes going to the dentist so easy!
Darcy was so professional and explained things to me the entire time. Just so refreshing to come to Dentist’s office and feel like part of their family. Thank you so much!!!
Very pleased with Altoona Smiles. Going to the dentist is not high on my list of things I enjoy. The staff is very friendly and professional. Sabrina especially is great at putting you at ease.
My experience at Altoona Smiles was very positive. Dr. Eric & Kaylor were thorough & pleasant. I have a great fear of dentists & they made me feel relaxed & comfortable.
I was very afraid to go to the dentist but everyone made me feel welcome and happy. I had some pretty major dental work done and Dr. Jenni and the assistant kept me calm.
