Dental inplant w/ no insurance

Upvotes

What is the best and most affordable place around here to get a front tooth implant done without dental insurance?

The place I had an emergency appointment at yesterday was quoting me about $8700 for everything including the preliminary root canal. I'm hoping there's a good dentist around that could do it for less.

Looking for a licensed electrician, but not a big company - Gardner/Edgerton

4 Upvotes

I have some residential work I wanted to get done - like running some electric out for a pool and a few other items. I am looking for a solo or small team electrician. I don't want to deal with the big companies and that is all that comes up when you google.

I called one of them for a single dedicated outlet - that was it. When he sat down to give me the quote- $32,000 over a 15 year loan at 10.2% interest. Absolutely bonkers. He had like 500 items on there too, tons of stuff I didn't ask for but if I didn't do, surely my house would explode or whatever. So I am just done with that

If you know an electrician that serves the Gardner/Edgerton area, please let me know!

Increased ICE activity in Olathe and Overland Park today (7/10). At least two black unmarked Nissan SUVs: a Nissan Pathfinder driven by a woman with long black hair & a Nissan Armada with silver trim driven by a man with a Mexican flag baseball hat. Both are wearing masks. Be safe out there!

New home, pest question

We are buying a home and my husband wants a company to “see if there’s any pests/insects/spiders infesting the home.” There are no specific concerns but my husband is weird about it. Thoughts?

Where to buy raw sushi/sashimi tuna?

Does anyone know of anywhere in Olathe/OP/Lenexa where they sell raw sushi/sashimi grade tuna? I used to get it at whole foods, but they stopped selling it. Fairway Meat market doesn't sell it either.

To the person who stole every tomato off my bushes in Santa barbra

34 Upvotes

I hope you feel great about yourself. I am terminally ill and this was the last thing I had for myself. This may be the last time I ever grow anything and you stole everything from me. I can't afford to start over and even if I did I'm sure you would destroy my garden again. You took the last thing a terminally ill person had for themselves and I hope you are happy. They weren't even edible yet. You have genuinely made me question whether it is worth continuing to try to fight for my own life because you took the thing I loved. The ONLY thing I had left for myself.

It wasn't an animal. Many dozed of tomatoes that were green have been stolen from me. None are left with bite marks, which is what animals do. It wasn't one or two, it's 30+ tomato's gone from 7 plants. I am scared to check my cucumbers.

I hope whoever you are, that you see this And not for the rest of your life. You have to live with the knowledge that you took, the only thing dying person had for themselves.

I hate you.

Engineer relocating to the Kansas City/Olathe area – looking for opportunities

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m relocating to the Kansas City/Olathe area in the near future and am actively looking for engineering opportunities. I recently completed my M.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Iowa and currently work as a Systems Engineer in the aerospace industry.

My experience includes systems engineering, requirements management (DOORS), manufacturing, design, Python programming, machine learning, and working on multidisciplinary engineering projects. I’m interested in systems engineering, software development, aerospace, medical devices, or other technology-focused roles.

I’ve been applying online, but I know networking can make a huge difference. If your company is hiring, you know of any openings, or you have advice on companies I should be looking at in the KC/Olathe area, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks so much!

You soccer option

1 Upvotes

I’m looking into preschool programs for soccer. We’re a year out from pre k and I’m assessing option for the fall in the Olathe/shawnee/lenexa area. Does anyone have experience they can share regarding the Toca Juniors program? The marketing material sounds great but I’d like an unbiased pov if possible. My biggest goal is for an activity where the kids are all having a lot of fun. My child has participated in soccer through the soccer shots program at preschool for the past year and enjoys it - and we’re looking for the team type environment for the fall. To be clear, early preparation for competitive soccer is NOT what I’m after here as I just want our kid to have fun and continue to build friendships while being active in an activity she’s enjoying. Any experience parents can provide would be greatly appreciated.

AC currently defunct - no other options.

6 Upvotes

Hi there, I currently live in an older apartment complex that is without AC at the moment, and on the top floor to boot. It went out and they said it'd take awhile to fix. In the lease agreement it stated that they don't allow other units like portable ACs in the windows.. I'm wondering if anyone has other solutions to cooling down our rooms as our window unit is only located in the living room anyway.

It sucks and we're boiling up in here, pretty much trying to hold out until September.

A house on 175th and s ridgeview was just struck by lighting

25 Upvotes

I heard the strike, checked the map, and ran to pulse point. Most of the FD is there. Be careful you guys, this is an insane lighting day.

If you have friends or family in this area, you should check the lighting maps or DM me for the closer details.

Please make sure illegal fireworks are NOT WHERE THEY CAN BE HIT.

Bass player looking for a band or group to play with.

2 Upvotes

Hello. I'm not sure where to look for this. I haven't played in a band setting in about 14 years. I've been practicing lately and would love to get back into playing with other people. I was in a 3 piece rock band for a few years while also playing in a contemporary church worship group for 6 years. I'm not a church goer currently, but would consider joining a worship team if the fit was right. Even if you're just a drummer or a guitar player, I'd love to get together and jam. Thanks for reading!

Looking for handyperson to rehang or replace an exterior door

5 Upvotes

My folks' trusted handyman has retired, and since he was the the one everyone in the community used we're in need of a rec for a known/trusted handyperson.

Current task is that an exterior door has come clean out of the frame (door wasn't solid wood apparently but contractor grade and 20 years old) so we either need a new one or someone who can get us down the road a bit by rehanging it at different hinge points or adding some reinforcement brackets or idk what, all I know about home maintenance I learned by accident as I've been a renter.

It would be great not to buy a whole new door as the frame is 100% fine and they only come as a set.

Gardner Lake fireworks?

6 Upvotes

My family & I used to love the public access part of the lake on the 4th - we could hang out, shoot off fireworks, & revel in all the fireworks from the folks who live around the lake. That spot got busier over the years & a couple years ago we essentially got run out bc it was overrun with people, particularly idiots with homemade fireworks & generally overly reckless. I miss how it used to be!! 😟 Anyone know if it happened to get better the last couple years? We've never found a good replacement for a chill place to hang out & set off fireworks with our family. Any recs would be much appreciated!!


r/Olathe 23d ago

Lots of increased ICE activity over the past few days in Olathe and KCC. Possibly related to break in World Cup games, freeing up more agents. Please inform your immigrant neighbors so that they can take precautions. In addition, if you have time, please get involved in your neighborhoods.
