About Deer Creek Family Dental Care

Deer Creek Family Dental Care operates on Metcalf Avenue in the Deer Creek area of Overland Park, Kansas. Implants are considered by many dentists the most durable way to replace a missing tooth, since the titanium post fuses with the jaw bone over several months and then supports a crown that functions much like a natural tooth. Enough healthy bone is the main prerequisite, and a graft can build that up first if needed.

Clear aligners straighten teeth through a series of custom, removable trays, each worn for one to two weeks before moving to the next in the sequence. They suit mild to moderate crowding and spacing well, and are worn roughly twenty to twenty-two hours a day for treatment to stay on schedule.

A veneer is a thin custom shell bonded to the front of a tooth to change its shape, length, or colour, most often used to address chips, gaps, or discoloration that whitening alone cannot fix. Traditional veneers require a small amount of enamel to be removed, which makes the change permanent.

Cosmetic dentistry covers treatment aimed primarily at appearance — whitening, veneers, bonding, and reshaping among the more common options — for patients who are less concerned with a problem that hurts than with how their smile looks day to day. The right combination depends on what specifically you would like to change.

Root canal treatment removes infected or inflamed tissue from inside a tooth, cleans and seals the space, and allows the natural tooth to be kept rather than extracted. Its reputation for being painful is largely outdated — carried out under local anaesthetic, it typically relieves pain rather than causing it.

Emergency dental care covers sudden problems that will not wait for a routine appointment — severe pain, a knocked-out or fractured tooth, swelling, or a lost filling that leaves a tooth exposed. Same-day or urgent appointments are the point of an emergency service, rather than the standard multi-week booking window.

The office is very clean, and staff is very friendly. The hygienist I had was very thorough, and I could tell she is passionate about her job, and the services she gives. Dentist was very friendly and professionals, and gave me a great treatment plan going forward.

I have a lot of damaged teeth due years of abuse and trauma. I was at a point where I HAD get them fixed. The entire staff treated me with dignity, empathy, and endless kindness. Through this process they have helped me heal inside and out. If you need dental work done, but have put it off or are super anxious- please please please give them an opportunity to help. You won’t regret it!!

I went in for an exam because I knew I had a cavity. They took an excessive number of x-rays, and then I found out after the fact that they were charging extra for each individual one. There was no clear explanation beforehand about how many would be taken or how much the total cost would be. I only went to their practice because I had received a flyer in the mail from them advertising an offer for $129 that included a cleaning, exam, and x-rays. When I asked about it, they told me it didn’t apply because I wasn’t getting a cleaning that day, which felt misleading and makes no sense, since these x-rays and the exam would've been a normal thing for a new patient. Overall, I left feeling taken advantage of and pressured into unnecessary extra x-rays just so they could make more money off someone without insurance. I would not recommend this office to anyone. They are just trying to make a quick buck off you.

When I tell you this place changed my thinking on Dentist on dentistry on how kind people are how they care and how they go above and beyond to actually hear what you’re dealing with and will be able to see if they can help you that day. this is one of the best places I’ve gone ever I will never go to another dentist. I will continue to go here and let me just say the workers and the hygienist and all of them that they have are incredible super kind. I’m so so glad I found this place.
