Wednesday Winter Uniforms



Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, what day is it?   Mike is KO’s Lab. Tech. & erstwhile Clinical Assistant who is also a great rock guitarist.  So, he chose to pose in front of our Van Halen/Sammy Hagar wall wearing the KO Rockers Winter Wednesday Uniform selection.   “It’s Braces Day . . . just like everyday at Kalamazoo Orthodontics. 

Winter Storm Surprise



Sherry Bowman provided a special “Winter Storm Surprise” cake from MacKenzies Bakery for Team KO today.  It’s certainly appropriate considering the surprising Michigan winter we are experiencing.  Our bracing team can’t wait to cut into the Bavarian Crème surprise!

The Confidence to Smile (+playlist)



Ximena Davis was once not confident in her smile and she used to hide her teeth. After she completed two years of orthodontic treatment with Kalamazoo Orthodontics, it’s obvious now that her new smile has helped her delightful personality shine through. 


If you don't like your smile - let us give you one of ours.  For a complimentary evaluation with Dr. Bowman, call us at 269-344-2466.  We would love to see you to help get you the confidence to really smile!

Orthodontic History

Dr. Bowman just stumbled upon and acquired a copy of (Dental) Items of Interest, published in 1887.  This book contains a copy of Edward Angle's (the father of modern orthodontics) first publication.  Angle read this paper at the 9th Int'l Medical Congress when he was a professor in Minneapolis.  It describes his first of hundreds of orthodontic inventions, leading up in later years to "edgewise" braces (that are not that different in many aspects to what we use today).  Orthodontics is the oldest specialty in all of dentistry, thanks to Angle, and it is fascinating to learn where we came from.

Reason to Smile

Reason to smile?  Connor Richmond has one, he just finished his orthodontic care at Kalamazoo Orthodontics.  (apparently, under the watchful eye of some jaundiced looking character seen there in the background)
