Looking for Dentist Recommendations I've read through a few dentist recommendation posts on here, but I think most are a bit old. When I called around, the first two said they were closed due to covid. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a good dentist near the Westwood/Fairway area that survived through covid and is still open. Thanks!

Looking for a good dentist Does anyone have a good recommendation for a dentist? I have TONS of dentist-related anxiety and very sensitive teeth so I keep putting off going despite the fact that I really need to. I know I have a couple cavities and probably plaque buildup, but I have never had a dental cleaning not be painful. Anyone else with dental anxiety find a great one who's gentle and kind?

I'm a fan of my dentist, [Dr. Sutton on the plaza](https://www.briansuttondds.com/). They are very good and very sensitive with people who have anxiety about going to the dentist. They also have TVs to watch while you get your teeth cleaned (or during a root canal). In my experience, the cleanings are painful because they have to scrape off plaque that often grows below the gum line, and they have to be at least a little bit aggressive with the floss to also go below the gum line. That said, I don't experience much pain with my tooth cleanings at their office. Definitely give them a look!
I'm looking for a dentist in the nearby area (Waldo/Brookside/East O.P. or Leawood area). Just need an honest dentist that won't try to sell me up on every cosmetic procedure available! Any referrals would be appreciated.

Dr Sutton at Family Dentistry is a bit out if that range, on 46 th and Main, next to Cafe Trio, but as someone with a lifelong dentist phobia I can honestly say that he and his staff are amazing. It's the only place I've been comfortable in 20+ years. Kind, affordable, and fast. 816-931-2342
