Kottemann Orthodontics - Orono

Kottemann Orthodontics - Orono handles braces, aligners, and other orthodontic treatments in the western suburbs. This isn’t a general dental office; it specializes in bite correction, jaw alignment, and the kind of precision work that keeps teenagers—and adults—from grimacing in school photos. The practice sits along Kelley Parkway, a stretch of Orono that’s equal parts residential and light commercial, with the kind of low-key accessibility that makes after-school appointments feasible.

Orthodontics often gets reduced to metal brackets and retention checks, but the reality involves more: palatal expanders for kids with crowded teeth, clear aligner systems for those who refuse to smile with wires, and the occasional surgical coordination for complex cases. None of this happens in a vacuum, so the location—2765 Kelley Pkwy—puts it within reasonable distance of both Wayzata and Long Lake, sparing families the Twin Cities traffic slog. Orono’s layout means you’re never far from a lake view, even if you’re just there to get your elastics replaced.

A quick call to (763) 420-6834 covers the practicalities: scheduling, insurance questions, or figuring out if that lingering jaw click actually needs attention. For first-time visits or anyone mapping the route, the directions are straightforward—no highway exits required. Some places make orthodontics feel like a production; this one just handles the work.
