Meet Your Dentist in Carthage, MO
Dr. Grant Kirk
Dr. Kirk loves every aspect of dentistry. From the simplest filling to the most complex case, he firmly believes in giving every patient the best care possible.
Dr. Kirk grew up in Grain Valley Missouri where he learned at a young age that hard work is the only way to achieve your goals. He always knew that he wanted to work in a profession that helped people in the community. After a trip to the dentist as a child with a broken tooth, he learned first-hand the confidence of a great smile.
Dr. Conner Paustian
Dr. Paustian has a commitment to accomplishing the optimum results for every person. He recognizes that every person and situation is different and that everyone deserves the attention to detail needed to allow their mouth to be healthy, beautiful, and pain free, with long lasting success.
He has always loved to work with his hands, fixing things, and loves drawing, painting, and sculpting.
