Partners In Education

Besides creating smiles, we are also very proud to be Partners in Education with Cedar Creek Elementary School and Longview Farms Elementary School. We enjoy providing classroom education, volunteering to help with various events they have going on and offering educational opportunities in our office. We also speak to many other schools in the Kansas City area about dental education and orthodontic topics.

The Spofford Home

This holiday season, we had the pleasure of making wishes come true for the children at the Spofford Home. The Spofford Home has been in service since 1916 helping area children who suffer from the effects of abuse and mental health disorders. The children gave us a wish list and we hung an ornament on the tree for each gift that was requested. Patients and staff members then chose an ornament from the tree and bought the gift that was on the ornament. Between the wonderful generosity of our patients’ families and our staff we were able to grant many wishes! We also made one of our patients very happy! All of the patients who purchased gifts received one entry per gift for an Ipod Shuffle!!! Congratulations to our lucky winner: Aisha Rehberg!!!
