Mark Dake, DDS, MSD

Orthodontic care in Joplin’s south side includes Mark Dake, DDS, MSD, a practice that fits into the area’s mix of professional offices and retail spots along Rangeline Road. The stretch near 24th Street has long been a hub for healthcare providers, making it a convenient stop for families coordinating appointments or errands. While the corridor sees steady traffic, the location keeps things accessible without venturing far from residential neighborhoods or the commercial stretch toward I-44.

Specialized orthodontic services here cover the usual spectrum, from early evaluations for children to Invisalign and traditional braces for teens and adults. Retention planning and corrective treatments round out the offerings, all within a category that often overlaps with pediatric dentistry but focuses solely on alignment and bite. Questions about treatment timelines or initial consultations can be directed to (417) 248-2153, where the front desk handles scheduling and general inquiries.

The office sits at 2330 S Rangeline Rd Ste E, a few minutes’ drive from both downtown Joplin and the shopping centers near Northpark Mall. For those mapping out a first visit, the directions place it just south of the intersection with 24th Street, where Rangeline’s commercial stretch begins to taper into quieter blocks. It’s a practical spot for anyone coming from the Missouri Southern campus or the residential areas east of Main Street.
