Cascade Dental Care: Jamie Ritchie DDS, Kurt Glendening DDS, Brent Jones DDS

West Lawrence still feels like a small town wedged between two river valleys; sidewalks give way to quiet blocks where you’ll find everything you didn’t realize you needed within a ten-minute drive. Cascade Dental Care sits one block off Iowa Street at 1425 Wakarusa Drive, Suite A, where three dentists coordinate general, restorative, and cosmetic treatments under one roof. The office handles cleanings and exams as matter-of-factly as crowns and nightguards, so minor issues rarely balloon into bigger ones.

Digital imaging keeps every consultation precise; intraoral cameras let you see the same angles the dentists see, which helps when they sketch out a treatment timeline on the same screen. Routine fluoride varnishes, sealants, and custom athletic mouthguards roll through the schedule, and the team also photographs smiles before and after—handy if you’re weighing orthodontics or veneers down the road. Same-day crowns arrive when the lab next door can confirm the margin fit within two hours, so you’re not left juggling three separate visits.

Parking stalls in front of the strip mall are usually open before 11 a.m.; once you’re inside, the front desk asks for insurance cards then sends everything electronically—no paper claims to file later. They’ll call the back for the dental assistant if the numbing gel needs a minute to catch, but most routine visits wrap before the hour is up.
