Kansas prohibits advertising a guaranteed or painless service

What the source requires

Kansas defines it as unprofessional conduct for a licensee to advertise "to guarantee any professional service or to perform any operation painlessly". The same section also names "[a]dvertising professional superiority or the performance of professional services in a superior manner" (b)(7), and solicitation "through the use of fraudulent or false advertisements" (b)(1).

Why this is hard to satisfy

"Painless" and "pain-free" are standard aesthetic marketing vocabulary and read as reassurance rather than as a named prohibition. Kansas names both the guarantee and the painlessness claim explicitly, and a practice writing reassuring copy has no reason to suspect either is listed.

What we do about it

Literal phrase match for guarantee constructions and painless claims across every page, reported with the statute's own words attached.
