About DK Orthodontics

Opened in January 2017, DK Orthodontics is Bismarck’s newest orthodontic practice. With a focus on high-quality treatment geared towards the individual needs of each patient, it is our goal to treat you in an environment predicated upon customer service to ensure your comfort and well-being. To have an opportunity every day not only to be part of a profession that truly can transform someone’s life, but also build lifelong friendships with the ones we serve is the driving force within our office. That was the reason each of us chose to be a part of this team and we take great pride in establishing that connectivity, both while you are in treatment and beyond.

We are excited to help create the smile you have always wanted, in an environment that values honesty, trust, and commitment. We are here to serve you, every day, and that is something we do not take lightly. Orthodontics is an exciting and life-changing journey and we look forward to taking this ride with you!
