The staff at Dr. Petersen is the best. I never have to wait when I come in, and the procedures are always thorough but fast. They’re a pretty busy place, but they keep things moving, which is nice. I’ve been a patient here since they opened, and I’ve always had an enjoyable experience. I’ve recommended them to all my friends, they’re the best dental office in Leawood, Kansas. A lot of my friends love this place too. The entire staff is kind and really cares about their patients. I’ve had cleanings, new caps, new white fillings, and root canals done here, and everything has always looked great. Thank you, Dr. Petersen.

Periodontitis is a common oral health issue. In fact, studies from the Centers for Disease Control reveal that about 50% of adults over the age of thirty require treatment for periodontal concerns. Without treatment, gum disease could reach an advanced stage. Known as periodontal disease, this is actually one of the most common causes of missing teeth. All that to say, when you develop changes in your gums, you need to see a professional as soon as you can. Red and bloody gums are common indicators that you need to consult a Kansas City restorative dentist.


Doctor Network’s search tool can streamline searching for cosmetic dentists in Kansas City KS that accept new patients and can offer a diagnosis after examining your smile. If there is any sign of gingivitis or gum disease, then a treatment can be planned. For mild or moderate periodontitis, a deep cleaning followed by traditional cleanings every three to four months could prevent symptoms. For the later stages of the disease, there are options like pocket reduction surgery, laser dentistry, and more to restore your smile!

According to the research by the CDC, over half of adults older than the age of thirty suffer from poor periodontal health. Without treatment, this disease could lead to painful symptoms, including bleeding gums. The advanced stage, known as periodontitis, could also cause the loss of your teeth. This is why care from a Kansas City periodontist is necessary when you begin to exhibit the common warning signs. We can help by connecting you to one that accepts new patients. After all, we all benefit from routine dental care!


How does the poor gum health come about? The changes to your gum tissue could occur due to lack of proper brushing and flossing. Some could develop it due to infrequent dental cleanings, or due to gingivitis, tobacco use, certain medications, or even gum disease in other family members. As we touched on above, tell-tell signs include sore, red, and bleeding gums. By seeing a dentist in Kansas City, KS you can receive gum treatments like deep cleaning to bring relief and improve your oral health. These treatment options could be at least partially covered by insurance plans.


If you feel concerned, or if you simply haven’t been to a dentist in the last six months, you should book an online appointment. At Doctors Network, we can connect you to dentists in Kansas City who accept new patients. A healthy and whole smile is always possible, and we can help connect you to your new dentist!

It is important for kids to visit a pediatric dentist bi-yearly for dental visits and cleanings. By teaching your children how to take care of their teeth, you are ensuring that they have the tools to have healthy smiles for many years. If you are looking for a dental office in Kansas City who takes patients with no dental coverge, you are on the right website.


In addition to offering exams and cleanings, dentists on Doctors Network also provide your child with protective sealants. Sealants are thin layers of film that go on top of their back teeth. They work as a protective film that forms a protective layer between their back teeth and germs. This ultimately prevents the risk of infection by up to 80 percent. It is a simple treatment that is very effective at preventing cavities in the future.


Fluoride treatments are another proven tool that your pediatric dental professionals provide. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps bolster your child’s enamel. While enamel is one of the most protective substances our bodies produce, it can still weaken over time. When this occurs, your little one’s teeth become more susceptible to damage. Fluoride treatment prevents this from happening. Using fluoride toothpaste can also help. For more information, please schedule an appointment with one of our dental practices in Kansas City.

Many people would be elated to have a whiter smile. When you venture down the aisles of any pharmacy, you see myriad products that promote their teeth whitening abilities. If you have purchased any of these, you know that they almost always provide disappointing results. However, professional teeth whitening can actually provide a brighter smile. If you are looking for a dentist in Kansas City, KS that accepts patients with no dental coverage, we can help you find one that offers professional teeth whitening.

When you visit your Kansas City dental care provider, they can provide you with either an in-office or even at-home treatment option. If you choose the in-office treatment, you will have brighter teeth within about an hour. When you visit the office for whitening, your dentist will apply a special bleaching gel that, when activated by a special light, will get rid of stains.

If you would prefer to go with an at-home treatment, your dentist will give you a set of custom trays that you can use along with a safe peroxide solution. You will put these on for a few hours each day for approximately 2 weeks. Once this treatment is done, you will have a more radiant smile. If you would like to request an appointment with a Kansas City dentist that takes patients with no dental coverage, we can help you find the best ones.

If it has been at least half a year since you last visited a dentist, you should schedule a consultation soon. When you go in for bi-yearly dental checkups, your dentist can closely examine your teeth to make sure nothing is awry. This helps prevent decay from occurring, minimizing the chance of needing more expensive procedures at a later time. If you are looking for a dentist in Kansas City, KS that accepts patients without dental insurance we can help you find a great practice.

To begin your visit, a hygienist will clean your teeth thoroughly. This will remove tartar and plaque that is difficult to remove at home — even with terrific brushing and flossing habits. The dental prophylaxis will leave your teeth feeling rejuvenated.

Once your cleaning is over, your Kansas City dentist will begin his examination. During this portion of your appointment, the dentist will thoroughly look at your dentition to identify any potential complications. If they find anything amiss, they can provide treatment options. The Kansas City dental practice we set you up with will offer a wide range of services to address a variety of dental needs. If you visit the dentist regularly they can monitor the health of your mouth. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a consultation with a dentist that works with patients without dental insurance, we can help you find a great one.

KKansas residents proudly boast that the state (specifically, Smith County) is literally the center of the contiguous United States. It was also the jurisdiction of what would become Wild West legends Wyatt Earp, James Butler "Wild Bill" Hickok, and William B. "Bat" Masterson. Today, it is one of the epicenters of America’s agricultural industry, as well as the home of over 2.9 million residents of all ages. With Doctors Network, residents can focus more on what the Sunflower State has to offer and less on how much their family’s dental health care costs. With direct dental plans offered directly through your primary dentist, membership in Doctors Network gives you and your family access to substantial discounts on high-quality dental care.

Everyone deserves the best care that their dentists have to offer, but unfortunately, not everyone can afford the out-of-pocket expenses that dental insurance often leaves them with. This is especially impactful for the 10.6% of Kansas families that do not have insurance coverage at all. To help ensure that everyone receives the level of care that they deserve at reasonable costs, Doctors Network and dentists across Kansas offer a direct dental plan that works separately from dental insurance. For a low monthly fee that is determined by your dentist, membership in Doctors Network means that you can attend checkup and cleaning appointments for only $25 per visit. It also means that you can enjoy discounts of up to 90% on every dental treatment you require, including fillings, crowns, teeth-whitening, porcelain veneers, dental implants, and more.

It was so easy to find a doctor and make an appointment. I didn't have to take hours to call different offices and find out who takes my insurance and who doesn't.

I'm a freelancer, so I can't buy insurance easily, so I always ended up paying a lot for doctors' visits. I signed up for a Doctors Network dental plan, and my dental cleanings cost only $25 now. If you don't have dental insurance I highly recommend it.
