⭐ 500+ five-star reviews · MAGD Master of the Academy of General Dentistry · Diamond+ Invisalign Provider
Master-level dentistry is worth the 8 minutes drive
Most dentists in or near Lenexa are general practitioners — and many do excellent work. But for complex cases — implants, smile makeovers, Invisalign, sedation — the right answer is a Master of the Academy of General Dentistry (MAGD) with hundreds of advanced cases behind her. That’s a designation only ~2% of U.S. dentists hold.
From Lenexa, you can be in our chair in roughly 8 minutes. For routine cleanings as well as the big stuff, it’s worth the drive.
Every age, every service, one team
Most Lenexa families coordinate between a pediatric dentist, an orthodontist, and an oral surgeon — paying separately, scheduling separately, juggling records. At Love To Smile, every service happens in one office: cleanings for the kids, Invisalign for the teen, an implant for grandma, all on one shared calendar.
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.

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.”

“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.”

What we love about treating Lenexa patients
Lenexa is one of our easiest commutes — from Lenexa City Center off 87th and Renner, you’re 8 minutes via I-435 South to College Boulevard. From the 66215 area near the Lenexa Public Market, it’s 10 minutes. From the newer 66220 developments out near Cedar Creek, plan 12.
A big chunk of our Lenexa patient roster comes from the Garmin, Sprint/T-Mobile alumni, and Sonic HQ communities — families that tend to schedule whole-family appointment blocks on Friday afternoons so they can hit the Lenexa Public Market afterward. We don’t mind. We schedule a generous block for the whole crew and have you out in time for happy hour at Brewlab.
Our Lenexa pediatric patients mostly come from the Olathe Public Schools attendance areas covering Lenexa — Bentwood Elementary, Belmont Elementary, Pleasant Ridge Middle, Olathe Northwest. We tailor preventive care recommendations to what their school health office actually checks.
