One Trusted Dental Home for All of Johnson County

Johnson County families have a lot of options, but very few practices bring cleanings, cosmetic dentistry, and implant care together in a single, familiar place. That is exactly what we built. Our Overland Park location sits at 10925 Antioch Road, an easy drive from anywhere in the county, so you are never far from a team that already knows your history and your goals.

When you have one dental home, your care stays connected. We are not sending you across town to a specialist who has never met you, then trying to piece the story back together. From a child's first checkup to a parent's full-mouth restoration, our team follows your smile through every stage, and that continuity is what keeps care simple, comfortable, and truly personal.

Master-Level Comprehensive Care Close to Home

Dr. Pedersen earned the MAGD credential through hundreds of hours of advanced, hands-on training well beyond dental school. For you, that depth means you can pursue treatment that many general offices refer out, from cosmetic makeovers and porcelain veneers to dental implants and complex restorations, right here in Overland Park.

Comprehensive also means we look at the whole picture. Instead of treating one tooth at a time, we consider how your bite, gums, and long-term health fit together, then build a plan around what matters most to you. You get thorough, master-level dentistry and the convenience of keeping it all in Johnson County, without the drive downtown or the runaround between multiple clinics.

Who We Help Across Johnson County

We care for the full range of Johnson County smiles. Busy families love scheduling parents and kids together. Professionals who want a confident, camera-ready smile come to us for whitening, Invisalign, and veneers. Adults living with missing or failing teeth turn to us for implants and restorative care that lets them eat and laugh freely again.

Not sure which option is right for you?

Book Your Consult

We also welcome patients who have put off the dentist because of past anxiety or a rough experience somewhere else. Our team moves at your pace, explains every step in plain language, and offers comfort-focused options so treatment feels calm rather than rushed. Whatever brought you to search for a dentist in Johnson County, there is a place for you here.

What to Expect at Your First Visit

Your first appointment starts with a free consultation, so you can meet our team, share your concerns, and get honest answers before committing to anything. We take the time to listen, complete a careful exam, and walk you through your options along with what each one involves.

Booking is simple. You can reserve your visit online through our Modento scheduler at any hour, or call the office and one of our team members will find a time that fits your week. When you arrive at our Overland Park location, you will find a warm, unhurried environment where the goal is a healthy smile you feel good about, backed by a team that treats Johnson County like the neighborhood it is.

Patient stories

What our patients actually say

Hundreds of 5-star reviews from real Overland Park, Johnson County, and Cass County families.

“I avoided the dentist for almost eight years. Dr. Pedersen and her team made me feel completely safe, no judgment, no lecture, just a real plan I could afford. Two years in and I never miss a cleaning.”

“We have four kids ranging from 6 to 17. Having one dental office that handles all of them, including my teenager’s Invisalign, has saved us so many hours of driving.”

“I’d been searching for a ‘natural dentist’ in Overland Park for two years. Finally found one that doesn’t make me feel weird for asking about my fillings.”

“Walked in convinced I needed a root canal. They diagnosed a cracked filling and fixed it the same day for a fraction of what I’d been quoted. Honest, fast, painless.”

“Walked in convinced I needed a root canal. They diagnosed a cracked filling and fixed it the same day for a fraction of what I’d been quoted. Honest, fast, painless.”

“Cracked a molar on a Tuesday morning. Called at 8am, was in the chair by 11 with a same-day temporary crown. They saved my workweek.”

“I’d been hiding my smile for a decade. Now I forget I have implants until someone compliments my teeth.”

“Quoted four veneers somewhere else. Dr. Pedersen showed me a digital preview and we ended up doing bonding on two teeth and whitening, same result, a fraction of the cost.”

“The Smile Club paid for itself in the first six months. As a freelancer with no insurance, this is the only reason I actually get my teeth cleaned twice a year now.”

“Dr. Pedersen finished my Invisalign in eleven months. My old dentist (Bronze tier) had quoted twenty. Experience really does matter.”

“Having a Diamond Invisalign Provider this close to home meant my daughter didn’t have to miss school for every check-in. They explained everything to her like she was the patient, not me.”

“My six-year-old now asks when we get to go back to the dentist. That has never happened in any office before. The team is something else.”

“My implant looks better than the tooth it replaced. Every step explained, every cost in writing up front, zero surprises on the bill.”
