Peru Illinois Orthodontist Joseph Kunnel, DDS., MS., PhD

Our Orthodontic practice offers Chicago area patients two convenient office locations. Whether your appointment brings you to our Peru, Illinois orthodontic office, we promise to provide you personal service and attention and treatment that includes only the most advanced materials, equipment and techniques in orthodontics. 

High Standards

A standard of excellence in personalized dental care enables us to provide the quality dental services our patients deserve.  We provide comprehensive treatment planning and use the most up to date orthodontic treatments and materials to help you achieve a beautiful new smile. Should a dental emergency occur, Dr. Kunnel will make every effort to see and care for you as soon as possible.

Education & Prevention

As a practice, we are true believers that preventative care and education are the keys to optimal dental health.  We strive to provide “dental health care” vs. “disease care”.  That’s why we focus on thorough exams – checking the overall health of your teeth and gums before and during your orthodontic treatment. We know that routine cleanings, flossing, sealants, and fluoride are all helpful in preventing dental disease in the course of your orthodontic treatment. Not only are we focused on the beauty of your smile, we’re also concerned about your health.  A review of your medical history can help us stay informed of your overall health, any new medications, and any illnesses that may impact your dental health.

Uncompromising Safety

Infection control in our Peru, Illinois orthodontic offices is also very important to us.  To protect our patients and ourselves, we strictly maintain sterilization and cross contamination processes using standards recommended by the American Dental Association (ADA), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the Center for Disease Control (CDC).

Training & Expertise

As your orthodontic specialists, we want you to be confident knowing that we are a team of highly trained and skilled orthodontic clinicians.  We pride ourselves in providing the care you need to keep your smile beautiful. To give you the best possible service and results, we are committed to continual education and learning.  We attend orthodontic lectures, meetings, and dental conventions to stay informed of new techniques, the latest products, and the newest equipment that a modern orthodontic office can utilize to provide state-of-the-art orthodontic dental care.  Also, being members of various professional orthodontic & dental associations helps us to stay abreast of the changes and recommendations for our profession.
