What Makes Our Practice Unique?
Dr. Karen is not just another dentist in Kansas City, she is also an engineer, receiving her engineering degree from the University of Missouri Kansas City (UMKC). How does this make her unique? Karen says, "My engineering knowledge helps me when dealing with unusual situations with patients and their teeth."

Professional Dental Services with a Personal Touch
Along with providing a personal touch, we also strive to provide comprehensive dental care to every one of our patients. It's helpful to have a dentist who can provide many dental services in a single practice. With this in mind, Dr. Rethmeyer makes sure she has the equipment and training necessary to provide dental services in a variety of areas.
