Schedule a Consultation"We had a very positive experience again at Platte Valley Dental Group. Our appointment was scheduled a little later in the day but as soon as the office staff saw that school had been canceled, they called and asked us if we would like to come in earlier. I appreciated this very much as it allowed us to get our appointment out of the way and get back home before temperatures dropped further. The staff was very welcoming and professional and knew us by name on arrival. Dr. Luehrs took the time to explain what he was doing and why throughout my daughter's appointment to help her feel at ease. She enjoyed the ability to watch a movie during her procedure which made the appointment go much faster."

When she showed me before and after pictures I couldn’t believe how much difference there was! Gums look healthier and my smile looks so much better!! I highly recommend them!!"

"I was looking for a new dentist as mine had retired. Ended up needing to see someone before I'd settled on one. They got me in quickly and handled my issue. The staff was friendly, professional and knowledgeable. Pricing was upfront and clear. Dr. Luehrs explained everything thoroughly, was friendly, and personable. I would recommend him and his practice to others."
- Robin K.
"I had such a wonderful experience from the minute I walked in. The ladies at the front desk were all so friendly and welcoming. Diana the dental hygienist was the nicest young lady, told me everything she was going to do before she did it. Gave me a few tricks on brushing my teeth that no one has ever shared with me before. Dr. Samway was very kind and professional. I look forward to continuing getting my dental work done at Platte Valley Dental Group."

They are so good with them, very thankful for this place. Everyone is so kind from the moment you walk in until the moment you leave. I recommend them to everyone!"
