Dr. Kess says, “I love giving my patients great smiles! Nothing is more rewarding than taking a person who is embarrassed to smile and making it so they won’t stop smiling!” After graduating from The Ohio State University, Dr. Kess received his Dental Degree and his Orthodontics training from the Ohio State University College of Dentistry. To keep abreast of cutting edge technology, he’s a member of the American Association of Orthodontics. Dr. Kess says, “I am a second generation Orthodontist and I have been interested in being an Orthodontist my whole life!” Dr. Kess says, “I just moved to Arizona from Cleveland, Ohio, and I’m looking forward to not seeing snow anymore! I enjoy golf, jogging and spending time with my kids.”
