Orthodontist in Lenexa & Shawnee, KS

Hannah Orthodontics on Quivira Road serves both Lenexa and Shawnee, offering braces, ceramic braces and clear aligners for children, teens and adults. Your first exam is free, with no-interest in-house payment plans.

Our Quivira Road office sits on the Lenexa-Shawnee line, which is why we describe it as serving both. If you live in Shawnee, this is your nearest Hannah Orthodontics office - Shawnee Mission Northwest is under two miles away, and we care for many Shawnee families.

Dr. Richard Hannah and Dr. Gretter Hannah both practice from this office. Both are orthodontic specialists who completed a residency in tooth movement and facial growth after dental school - so the person planning your treatment and the person adjusting it are the same specialist, at every visit.

The practice has served Johnson County since 1959. It is family-owned, not part of a group.

We Back Shawnee Mission Northwest

We sponsor Shawnee Mission Northwest boys basketball and football. The school is 1.7 miles from this office, and a number of the students on those teams are our patients. We are proud to support Shawnee Mission Northwest year after year, and many of the players are our patients. We do it because these are our neighbors - the same families who walk through this door on a Tuesday afternoon.

If your teen is starting treatment and plays a contact sport, ask us about a mouthguard fitted over braces at the free exam. It is a five-minute conversation that prevents a genuinely unpleasant injury.
