Technology advances daily, the app you download today on your smart phone is likely to receive an upgrade tomorrow. It does not stop there…
Show the world your smile, not your braces.
The HARMONY System attaches to the interior side of your teeth, so no one knows you are wearing braces but you.
For teens and adults of any age seeking invisible orthodontics, HARMONY offers a solution for even the most challenging cases.
HARMONY’s digitally customized system for straightening teeth provides orthodontics with advanced technology to invisibly treat patients of all ages.
Dr. Kennell, Valerie, and Pam worked with 2 new Lakes Region Patients last week, when they outfitted each with their own custom Harmony Braces.
Take a look at photos below that show you the before and after. We are so excited to offer this new application; we will showcase the progress with patient, Jodi S., as she progresses to the smile she has been after for years.
Ask Dr. Kennell about HARMONY’s unique benefits.

Braces…not just for children!
March 22nd, 2013
Did you know one in every five orthodontic patients is an adult? We’re living longer and technology is improving, making orthodontic treatment an appealing and safe option for patients of all ages. As the trend toward treatment later in life grows, we’re seeing braces on parents as well as children – and even adult celebrities such as Tom Cruise, Gwen Stefani, Nicholas Cage, and more recently Faith Hill have shown off their braces. It’s never too late to look and feel your best with Dr. Kennell!
Can Braces Work for Adults?
People of all ages can benefit from orthodontic treatment with Dr. Kennell. The physical process for moving teeth is the same, young or old, which means it’s never too late to address issues such as an overbite or underbite, crooked or crowded teeth, or jaw disorders.
How Do I Get Started?
If you’re considering orthodontic treatment, we’ll make a consultation appointment with you. During this meeting we will perform a general assessment of your oral health, discuss options for treatment, and answer any questions you may have. We will also discuss matters of cost and insurance. The next step is an orthodontic records appointment in which we take x-rays, photos, and an impression of your teeth. This information drives your unique treatment plan.
Straightening your teeth can improve your smile, your self-esteem, and your dental health. Technologically advanced new treatments make it easier to identify the option that best fits your lifestyle. Modern techniques and materials have made braces and aligners more effective, comfortable and unobtrusive than ever.
If you think you might benefit from orthodontic treatment, give Kennell Orthodontics a call, so we may set up a consultation to determine what type of treatment best meets your needs.
A Big Thank You From Dr. Kennell

Thanks to all of our patients, parents and friends for making our Gunstock Tubing Event a huge success!!! This was our very first large-scale patient appreciation event and we are so glad it went without a hitch. Be sure to check out some photos on our Facebook album. And congratulations to our lucky raffle winners – enjoy those prizes!
The orthodontic years can be a tough time for some of our patients and we certainly understand that. Hey, I had braces myself – TWICE! I hope that having office contests and events like these help to lighten the mood a bit and make the “braces years” a little more enjoyable. I have to admit I am very fortunate to have an awesome office community of patients, parents and staff – it makes my job so much more rewarding.
Thanks again – and I’m already looking forward to planning our next event! If you have some cool ideas of events that would interest you, please let us know.
Dr. Kennell
