Patient review quote for Lenexa Smiles and Braces orthodontic practice
I was in a lot of tooth pain before visiting the office. Dr. Zheng and Dr. Patel provided an thorough exam and took a very good care of me. It was amazing to have my root canal treatment and crown done at the same day. I can’t wait to go back and get my teeth cleaned soon.
