Independence’s dental choices run along Highway 40, Highway 24, Noland Road and the streets between them. The Independence dentist list has 86 entries. A convenient trip helps with care that takes several visits, such as braces, a root canal with a crown or new dentures. Reviews about the treatment you need add detail to the rating and review count.
Highway 40 and Lynn Court dental choices
The Williams Smith Hawkins ET AL entry lists 19501 East US Highway 40. Justin Garner Dentistry is on South Lynn Court, with Zachary Meiners also listed on that street. Suchman and Darnall has a South Crackerneck Road entry. All add options around the southern part of Independence.
Don Hite is listed on South Whitney Avenue. Opdahl & Bowen has an East Valley View Parkway entry. For missing teeth, dentures and implants involve different work. Removal, healing and fitting the new teeth can add visits as well as cost.
Highway 24, 23rd Street and the care you need
Priority Dental Clinic has an East US Highway 24 entry, while True Dental Group is listed on West US Highway 24. Peter Gray has an East 23rd Street South entry. A painful tooth needs an urgent dental exam to decide whether repair or removal is needed.
Scott Roberson has a South M-291 Highway entry, and Brianna Wiepen is listed on South Bolger Road. The service you need helps narrow the choice: root-canal care treats the inside of a tooth, gum care treats its supporting tissues, and oral surgery includes removing problem teeth.
Children, braces and changes to a smile
Children’s visits need care suited to the child’s age and teeth. Braces and clear aligners move teeth over time, while cosmetic treatments can change their appearance. For someone mainly concerned about color, whitening is a narrower treatment than changing the teeth’s shape.
Nearby offices beyond the Independence trip
Sugar Creek adds choices north of the center, and Raytown adds offices to the southwest. Blue Springs and Grain Valley extend the options east. For a particular treatment, Lee’s Summit and Kansas City offer more offices within the metro area. The Dental.me Score weighs ratings and review counts; your care needs and insurance help make the final choice.
Independence questions about membership bills and referrals
What is the first-year cost of Garner’s adult membership?
The first year costs $645: the $150 activation fee includes month 1, then 11 monthly payments of $45 add $495. For a later full year, 12 payments total $540. This plan is for adults age 14 and older who have regular cleanings and no gum disease.
Do UMKC’s advanced dental clinics need a referral?
UMKC’s advanced clinics require a referral from your dentist for care such as root canals, braces and gum treatment. Licensed dentists in advanced training provide that care. The first visit is an evaluation with a fee, where the clinic works out the treatment and total cost.
