I have practiced orthodontics for almost 30 years. It is an exciting specialty and technology has made it even more exciting. Invisalign has been a huge game changer in orthodontics and it is fun to see individuals go through treatment when they did not want braces but wanted to see their teeth straight.
I love all the different age groups andthe energy and excitement that patients bring to the office. Throughout the process, each patients self-esteem and personality grows as they see the change in their appearance. By the time treatment is finished, my patients are happier and healthier, with confident smiles they love, and theyre excited to share those smiles with the world!
My father, Dr. James Kiourtsis, also an orthodontist, started this practice in the late 60s. He loved his career, the patients, and the desire to help others. Seeing his excitement for the profession cemented my desire to become an orthodontist.
I am pleased to have a private practice. I see every patient, create every treatment plan, design all Invisalign cases, position every bracket, and place any other appliance necessary for tooth movement. This personalized, hands-on approach ensures no detail is overlooked and gives patients high-quality, efficient treatment with outstanding results.
I have completed an Invisalign Intensive Fellowship and participate in Invisalign Advanced Education Webinars. I also attend The Ohio State Orthodontic Alumni Association Meetings, and read all the professional journals.
I could not be prouder of our team members. They are highly trained, highly educated, hardworking, dedicated, compassionate, and fun. Our staff of 12 has a combined 152 years of orthodontic experience!
I require my staff to participate in continuing education in order to provide the best patient experience. As a result, Kiourtsis Orthodontics is the only practice in Central Ohio that has clinical staff with the designation of Specialized Orthodontic Assistants from the American Association of Orthodontists.
Additionally, Kiourtsis Orthodontics is the only office in Central Ohio that is an Academy of Orthodontic Assisting Certified (AOAC) Team Certified Gold Practice. This designation is provided by a leading education and training program for the orthodontic profession. Extensive time, study, and testing are required to pass this program and our practice has met the requirements for their team certification.
If Im not creating smiles, chances are Im spending time with my wife, Mary Jo, and three children: Will, Deano, and Zoe. We all love our time outdoors, whether biking, camping, hiking, fishing, or hunting.
We recognize that all our patients are unique and deserve to receive orthodontic care that reflects their individual needs. Our experienced and talented team is committed to working with you and your family to create a comfortable, stress-free, and rewarding orthodontic experience every time you visit our practice.
At Kiourtsis Orthodontics, we are committed to providing the highest quality of clinical care and personalized service in a warm and compassionate atmosphere. Dr. Kiourtsis and our staff enjoy getting to know each patient and the family, and love creating relationships that last multiple generations.

Phenomenal experience today with our daughter, the staff couldn't have been nicer and Dr. Dean is an outstanding communicator, focused on talking directly to my daughter about things - an outstanding experience!

We had our consult recently and the staff was wonderful. Super nice throughout the appointment and made my son feel at ease. I loved that the doctor spoke directly with my son about his teeth and what would be needed. Instead of just speaking only to me. It's not something that most docs are good at. He also answered all my questions. We're looking forward to working with them for my sons future orthodontics.

Dr. Kiourtsis and the team are fantastic. They always have quick check-in/no wait time, detailed explanations about dental options and everyone is so friendly. I wouldn't take my kids anywhere else!

Professional and courteous staff. They treat you like family. I was blown away when the dentist called later in the day to check on my daughter...that type of service does not happen anymore. Very satisfied.

Love the staff! Very friendly overall, and love that Dr. Dean speaks directly to the child about what is going on with their teeth. Makes them feel more involved with the process.

Everyone was so warm and inviting. My daughter can definitely be timid around new people and wasn't at all. She had lots of questions and they were patient with her and answered everything to her understanding at consult. She's excited to go back and have her braces put on in just a couple weeks.

I have brought both of my daughters to Kiourtsis and have always had a great experience. Everyone is so kind. And no matter how minor the issues my daughters may have the front desk are so kind and work great to get them scheduled. I love this place and the staff and the dr.
