Meet the Team
Four people, one promise: everyone who walks in is treated like family.
John Klamer, DDS
Originally from St. Louis, Dr. Klamer studied at the University of Missouri–Columbia, earned his DDS at the UMKC School of Dentistry (2017), and completed a General Practice Residency at Truman Medical Center–Lakewood. His continuing education focuses on oral surgery and implant dentistry — including implant surgery and wisdom tooth extractions. Away from the office, John and his wife Brianna welcomed their first baby girl last fall; he’s a passionate outdoorsman, and his two dogs — Cotter and Beau — sometimes hang out at the practice.
