Dr. Cassill, or “Dr. Deb”, as she is known to her patients, offers quality dental care with exceptional service at Dental Arts in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. She is passionate about her work and loves combining the latest technology with genuine care to help patients improve their smiles.

“I am not here to judge you. My job is to help you. I have been a dentist for some time, and I have seen it before and can fix it.”

Growing up in the Marion / Cedar Rapids area, Dr. Deb followed in her father’s footsteps to become one of the best local dentists. She graduated with her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of Iowa College of Dentistry in 1992. 

Her commitment to excellence in dentistry is evident through her dedication to continuing education. She sought advanced training in smile makeovers at the renowned Pacific Aesthetic Continuum, offered by the University of the Pacific.

Among her professional affiliations, Dr. Deb is an active member of the American Dental Association, the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, the Linn County Dental Association, the Academy of General Dentistry, the Academy Iowa Dental Association, the International Dental Implant Association, and the Institute of Laser Dentistry.

Dentistry, also known as Dental and Oral Medicine, is a branch of medicine that consists of the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders, and conditions of the oral cavity. Dentists diagnose and treat dental issues and help patients develop better oral hygiene regimens. They clean teeth, correct bite issues, perform surgeries and extractions, and perform other duties to ensure that the teeth and mouth are healthy.

In her free time, Dr. Deb enjoys spending time with her kids, cooking for the family, being outdoors, and watching volleyball.
