If your idea of the dental experience is uncomfortable, cold, and confusing, it’s time to give Leawood Dental a try.
“From the front desk to the treatment chair, we put patient comfort as the foremost priority, while accepting nothing less than excellent outcomes,” says Dr. Luke Joliff of Leawood Dental.
Leawood Dental has been privately owned and serving the Leawood community for more than 35 years. Since 2019, Dr. Joliff has been leading the 12-member team that also includes dentist Dr. Meghan Hamilton.
“Patients can always expect us to put them at the center of everything we do,” Dr. Joliff says. “We don’t just tell you but show you what we’re seeing with your oral health, explaining the pros and cons of all treatment options. Using the most up-to-date technology, patients can see every aspect of their oral health that we can observe clinically.”
With general treatments, cosmetic treatments, orthodontics and children’s dental care as well as emergency services, Leawood Dental offers full services, including tooth-colored fillings, periodontal treatment, root canals, fluoridation, crowns/bridges, dental implants, whitening and more.
“We give each patient individual attention and uncompromising care surrounded by an environment of honesty and professionalism,” Dr. Joliff says. “Our patients feel comfortable, cared for and welcome. We offer noise-cancelling headphones, impression-free scanning, televisions and the most comfortable oral sedation techniques. We utilize 3-D X-Rays, Smile Scans, and Intra-Oral Photography to explain everything that we see and all treatment options, including a comprehensive array of specialty procedures.”
Advanced treatments include:
-
Dental implants – the new standard care for missing teeth with creative options to restore dentition with more comfort and longevity, including “New Teeth In a Day” solutions, avoiding or converting from wearing dentures.
-
Clear aligners - through reinforced and more discrete aligner material, more movement is accomplished in shorter time without uncomfortable, full-bracket braces.
-
Impression-free 3D scanners - give more accurate clinical results without the outdated goopy impression material.
-
CT Imaging - 3D scans through teeth result in more accurate diagnoses and safer treatments.
-
Zirconia-infused porcelain - provide clinically stronger crowns with better esthetic results.
-
Zoom! In-office whitening deliver dazzling results in patients’ smiles.
As the links between oral health and overall health continue to be documented, good dental care equals good self-care. “Restoring function and esthetics can dramatically improve a patient’s nutrition, self-confidence and longevity,” he says.
Dr. Joliff is a graduate of UMKC School of Dentistry. He received his Bachelor of Arts in Human Biology from the University of Kansas. Before joining Leawood Dental, Dr. Joliff practiced dentistry in Oklahoma. Having grown up in Topeka, he is excited to be back in Kansas serving the Leawood community. He enjoys spending time with his wife Taylor, daughters Margot and Louise, and golden retriever Mac. When not focusing on dentistry, Dr. Joliff enjoys cycling, golf and cheering on his beloved Chiefs, Royals and Jayhawks.
Dr. Joliff is passionate about building beautiful smiles and great relationships with his patients. As a member of the American Dental Association, the Kansas Dental Association, and the Academy of General Dentistry, he regularly pursues continuing education so he can offer the most up-to-date procedures and techniques in dentistry.
“Truly, the most rewarding aspect of my job is developing relationships with our patients. I love getting to know each patient, hearing about their background and life. I care for my patients on a personal level and find so much enjoyment in helping to improve their health and confidence.”
