What we love about treating Gardner patients

Gardner families tend to plan ahead and value a practice that respects their time, and we love being the place they can count on for the whole household. Many of our Gardner patients are already making the I-35 commute toward Overland Park and the wider metro for work, so folding a dental visit into that same direction just makes sense. We appreciate the small-town, know-your-neighbor spirit that Gardner carries, and we try to bring that same personal, unhurried feeling to every appointment.

The top tier Invisalign awards

Diamond+ is awarded to providers who have successfully completed hundreds of Invisalign cases. It correlates with shorter treatment times, fewer refinements, and more predictable outcomes, because experience compounds. Most Gardner Invisalign providers are Bronze or Silver.

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., Sarah M.

Patient stories

What our patients actually say

Hundreds of 5-star reviews from real Gardner, 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 Gardner 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.”
