Hi ladies. I recently and expensively found out that neither of the dentists our family sees (pediatric/general) are in network providers. Needless to say, I'm upset that A.) - we paid for a LOT of services that I pay to be covered @ 100% through insurance and B.) - we have to find new dentists. Does anyone their kids to Dr.(s) Lindsey or LeBlanc @ 142nd and Metcalf? Also, any suggestions for general dentists around the 103rd & 69 Hwy area would be greatly appreciated. We have United Concordia Ins. if that means anything to anyone else. : ) Thanks a bunch in advance!!

Hi! I have taken my kids to Jill Jenkins (of Jenkins & LeBlanc) for 7 years and my daughter LOVES LOVES to go to the dentist - she is so awesome with kids. My sister takes my nieces to see Dr. LeBlanc and she says he's great with her girls too. Their staff is extremely friendly and their hygenists are so congenial to my kids that they don't want to leave. They love that they can watch movies on the ceilings, play videogames while we wait and the fact that they get stickers, a prize from the machine, and a balloon and frozen yogurt when they leave!
And when my daughter's baby teeth were coming out and one of them looked like there was some infection starting behind it, they worked us right in to the Shawnee location (since that's where Jill was that day) so she could have a look and prescribe some antibiotics right away. They even let me send them an e-mail with a pic attached so she could see what I was so concerned about before we decided Jill needed to see her. I highly recommend Jenkins & LeBlanc.
Hi J.,
I actually am a dentist and have just moved out of the Kansas City area recently. Jenkins and LeBlanc are great...they do great conservative dentistry and they are great with kids! I would feel very comfortable taking my own kiddos there if needed.
The office that I worked in in Kansas City is at 69 and 103rd street and is also a great practice. Dr. Richard Winburn is the owner and is an excellent dentist and very trustworthy. His wife is Dr.Deb Winburn who is a pediatrician in the area. The address is 10351 Mastin (just west of 69 hwy) ###-###-####. Feel free to contact me with any questions you have!

I am not for sure on insurance, but we take the girls to Dr. Matt- Smiles dentistry for kids apx 146th and Metcalf, and both girls love him. ###-###-#### is the number you could call to see if they take the insurance.
My husband and I go to Dr. Douglas Schultz. 121st or so and Metcalf. ###-###-####. Easy scheduling. Love them both.
Good luck!
We see Dr. LeBlanc at the Shawnee location and it is a great practice. My daughter (4 yo) absolutely LOVES going to the dentist! They are GREAT with her, and have video games, tv's, "prizes", stickers, goody bags, and the best part - ice cream - after their visit! There is also a Starbucks coffee machine and bottled water for parents, a nice, open seating area, etc. They have been great every time we went, and Dr. LeBlanc is very friendly and patient with the kids. I highly recommend them.
I also take my kids to them. We have seen both and like them alot. Their office staff is great and the office is very kid friendly. I wish my childhood dentist was like that. My girls are lucky!
