Orthodontist for De Soto, KS

De Soto sits almost equidistant from three Hannah Orthodontics offices - Olathe (16.5 mi), Kansas City KS (17.1 mi) and Lenexa/Shawnee (18.1 mi). All three provide our full range of treatment. First exam is free.

For orthodontics, De Soto is an unusual case in a way that works in your favor: three of our five offices are within about eighteen miles, and there is very little to choose between them on distance.

OfficeFrom De Soto
Olathe16.5 miles (~27 min)
Kansas City, KS17.1 miles (~26 min)
Lenexa/Shawnee18.1 miles (~23 min)

So pick on convenience rather than mileage - whichever fits your commute, your school drop-off or your work. Records are shared across all five offices and the same two orthodontists practice at each, so the choice costs you nothing clinically and you can change it later.

Which Should You Choose?

Lenexa/Shawnee is the quickest by the clock despite being furthest by the mile, and it suits families heading east.

Olathe suits families already heading that way.

Kansas City, KS works well for households commuting toward Village West or I-435.

Genuinely - call any of them and we will help you work it out.

We are pleased with how good our daughters’ teeth turned out. A special shout-out to Candy, with whom we really connected. Hannah Orthodontics does a really good job. Thanks!
