History of Chautauqua Hills Dental

Chautauqua Hills Dental has been providing dental care for patients in the Greater Chautauqua County area since 1997. The practice has existed for much longer under solo ownership, but in a different building on Main Street and using a different name.

Built in the picturesque Chautauqua Hills, a rolling countryside in Southern Kansas, our practice provides a relaxing experience we believe you will find a refreshing alternative to the ordinary.
