First off let me say I am not the easiest of patients to deal with being as fussy as what I am…read more Over time I have seen quite a few dentists who each boast that they are the best at what they do...sadly this is not always the case or at least that is what I have found during some of my experiences. Experience being the key word... Dr. Knewtson was tasked with placing 4 implants and making a horseshoe implant supported denture for me after I had some poorly fitted crowns with a well known nationwide dentistry that had failed. He was direct and he was very patient with my needs which to me was massively important !!! No matter what frustration I had (and believe me I had issues) Dr. Knewtson remained patient and professional until my final procedure was completed successfully. Simply he did his job and he did his job well. The end result is what matters the most. Would I recommend him? ...absolutely!!! I have never had any issues since the whole procedure was done. The only sad thing I can actually say is that Dr. Knewtson is no longer in the Springfield MO area. I think however a 4hr drive for his services would be well worth it. If you want direct...if you want patient...If you want experience...if you want professional...if you want the job doing right ... Dr. Knewtson quietly wears each one of these descriptions very well !!! Don't let his reasonable and competitive cost interfere with your decision...seriously that is just a BIG BONUS !!! A really nice genuine guy ! I wish him all the luck in the world with his new practice in Lenexa KS. Clive Sanderson

She went back to her old dentist in Pasadena CA he told her it was not true they just wanted her money. She referred me to that dentist he was fair never asked for anything extra and was Always upfront with all cost. I needed an alignment after moving to KC was referred to Dentures plus. The staff gave alignment had me sign no warranty or money back right before getting alignment. I asked about regular cleaning I was told they absolutely could not do a cleaning without my dental records from CA I paid to have them sent . It turns out they meant scaling which I had not decided I wanted yet. I feel they wanted money. I may need the scaling but I didn't wish to be pushed into it and the regular cleaning wasn't even an option. Now I need to have a tooth looked at but I'm afraid to go back to them. Are there any dentists out there that are fair and not only interested in money?

I used…read moreto go here but the dentist there had blood shot eyes twice and seemed like he was high....I commented on that at the desk. Well then he moved to Texas and this clinic got new dentists. It's not a local dentist office. It's a chain that rotates people through. Lately the dentists have been the same but you never know who your hygienist will be. I quit and went to another office, but Covid hit and that office closed. When I had a crown break off and needed emergency dental care no one would take me as a non patient. Summit Fair took me back in after pleading my desperation. After looking in my mouth the dentist told me how important I be seen and do something right away. She and her hygienist that day were very kind and helpful. Open and honest. She did a great job. Her name is still on the door but I've never been able to get an appointment with her since, and I've never seen her there. Today not only did they never call and cancel, they also didn't have a hygienist in the office. The last cleaning I had was pretty rough and I have had a lot better people do the 6 month cleaning. They also tried to push two more crowns. I might need one, but why does it always seen that they are selling crowns?? Oh and magically after I put it off, they sent me a card saying they were having a sale on discount crowns. Today they wanted me to reschedule, but I already took off work to be here, why would I risk a 3rd time with them but having me on the schedule??

Went to Summit Fair. Needed extractions & partials. Paid out of pocket. 4 visits & $4500 later,…read morelies & shoody dentistry sent me to another dentist due to extreme pain with my remaining front tooth, upper rt. After extensive x-rays & review by Dr. K, he advised there is a large infection around the entire front, upper rt. tooth & the upper front left front tooth shows signs of hair-line fractures. His recommendations were for them to be removed & a New Upper Partial. The x-rays are Obvious. The Dr. at Summit Fair, did Not see or diagnose this or advise me of this. This Should have been recommended & done the first time I saw them. 4 visits & $4500 later, here I am. in pain & looking at more than an additional $4000 to Correct the Summit Fair Doctor's work. At the time of my last extraction, cavities were to be filled. The Dr. even stated the visit before my last, "Since you will be numbed up, we might as well do that at that time". Their Office Staff did Not schedule that. Now I am in pain, suffering. This was Not the first time their Office Staff or (I assume the Doctor), had failed in there job responsibilities. Examples follow: *Lower partial was manufactured incorrectly first time. *Office Staff Not following up for appointments. *Office Staff Not Scheduling needed care. *Office Staff stating 2 different amounts of cavities. First they stated 6, then 5, then told it would. cost me an additional $1500 to fill them. *Not seeing the Infection & cracks in the 2 front upper teeth. *Not recommending &/or removing the 2 front upper teeth & manufacturing the New Appropiate upper partial. * Not seeing that 2 of the 5 cavities are Not in need of attention since they are minimal stains on top of the enamel. Thus there are only 3 cavities that need attention. I am a Veteran without dental insurance. I am retired on limited income. I paid my bills in Full each visit. $4500 later I have a partial that will be no good, pain from frt. upper gum and painful bone spurs from extractions. I asked they consider refunding me the cost of the Upper Partial or contact me and arrange to make the necessary corrections to the 2 front, upper teeth and New Upper Partial by performing the work yourself WITHOUT Cost to me after the Infection has cleared. Three Weeks later No Response. Be Warned. Shoddy dentistry. Unprofessional Office Staff.

They called me at 7 am the next morning and got me in at 11am that day (keep in mind- I am not even a patient of theirs). The dentist was great and re attached my veneer after numbing my mouth. He educated me on future complications/what to avoid/what to watch for. His assistant was wonderful. I have had no problems since (knock on wood). The next day (so Saturday), the same gal who called me at 7am called to check on me. The best customer service I think I have ever had in my life. Again, I will be switching to this office. I cannot recommend them enough.

My second appt was a cleaning also with Dr. Jessup, I was happy with that as well, they were nice and informative. And I had zero pain during the cleaning. My third appt was to get some cavities filled by Dr Jessup, I had no issues with pain before the fillings but now am in a lot of pain and it's been 4 months since then. So I was not happy with that. I went in today for a cleaning from Dr Hutchinson, she was super kind and helpful on a plan to get my tooth to no longer hurt, she said that the filling I was given needed to be fixed and that should solve the pain. Overall I would definitely reccomend the office as the desk gals and hygienists are wonderful and so is Dr Hutchinson but I wouldn't reccomend seeing Dr Jessup. Also the location is kind of interesting to get to but once you've gone once it'll be a breeze to get to again. They do have a parking lot which I appreciate, and the office is very cozy and clean inside as well!

I went into this office with a confirmed price -- written, verified, and repeated back to me. I did everything right on my end so there would be no surprises. Unfortunately, the surprise came anyway, and it came in the form of a completely different, significantly higher bill. When I reached out for clarification, Christy Loudermill, who I was told was the "billing manager" (which already confused me, considering her title is practice administrator), handled the situation in a way that was honestly shocking to me. Her response came off cold, dismissive, and completely uninterested in the fact that their mistake had real consequences for me. Instead of taking ownership or offering real help, the explanation was basically a quick brush-off labeled as "human error," as if that magically excused everything. What made it worse was the tone -- like I was the inconvenience for asking why I was suddenly expected to pay far more than what Christy herself had confirmed. There was no sense of accountability, no recognition of the office's own miscommunication, and absolutely zero acknowledgment of the impact this caused. The entire situation left me feeling like accuracy and transparency simply weren't priorities for her. And the fact that someone in the office even referred to her as the "billing manager" just added to the mess. When the people working there can't even get titles straight, it says a lot about how disorganized things are behind the scenes. My opinion? If this is how the practice administrator handles problems -- with confusion, deflection, and an attitude that the patient should just swallow the difference -- then the rest of the office is likely following the same example. This review is based entirely on my experience, but I feel strongly enough about it to warn others. You deserve a medical office that honors its own quotes, communicates clearly, and treats patients with respect -- especially when the mistake is on their end. I won't be returning. And I hope this helps someone else avoid the headache, the runaround, and the dismissiveness I dealt with from Christy Loudermill at Oral & Facial Associates

Fearful (grown man), chose the root canal, no gas. I felt nothing, not even the shot. My next visit was a cleaning. The last time (5 days ago) a tooth extraction, and again felt nothing. Each visit I was kept informed of what to expect while they were working on my teeth, sometimes in stereo :). After each visit I was informed of care, what to expect, and what to avoid. I have at least four more visits to correct issues, but not as extreme. Then it will be routine visits after that! I think their receptionist does all of the insurance footwork and has it on paper for you. Check in and phone calls, she is a warm receptionist. The hygienists are energetic, talkative, and some times sing with the background music. Dr. Motaref is not only professional but displays a bedside manner we would hope for from our own primary care physicians. They all make the visit stress free, almost enjoyable... come on now, we are talking about the dentist. LOL

While I've primarily seen Dr. Busch, I've had the pleasure of working with several hygienists over the years. Currently, Joyce is my hygienist, and she truly stands out as the best of the best.

She provides detailed instructions about the specific areas of my mouth that need focus and sets clear expectations for improvement by my next appointment. There's nothing more satisfying than hearing her mention the progress I've made in brushing and flossing since my last visit. The entire team at North Kansas City Dental Group exemplifies professionalism and care, from the skilled dentists to the welcoming front desk staff.

Trust me; this is truly the best dental care provider.
