Welcome to our office,
Welcome to DuPlessis Orthodontics! The specialist at DuPlessis Orthodontics has been providing superior orthodontic care to greater Elizabethtown for over 21 years.
Dr John DuPlessis, Jr. grew up in Elizabethtown graduating from the University of Kentucky College of Dentistry. He completed orthodontic residency at St. Louis University Department of Orthodontics, one of the leading orthodontic programs globally. Dr DuPlessis is Board Certified by the American Board of Orthodontics and regularly attends continuing education courses beyond the requirements.
His devoted and skilled staff of eleven has worked with him alone for over one hundred combined years of experience.
Specializing in non-intrusive braces for children and adults, nearly all braces are small and painlessly applied without the need for spacers or bands. About fifteen percent of younger children need early treatment to avoid tooth and gum damage or to prevent the need for jaw surgery later.
The only way to find out if your child needs treatment now is to have a complimentary consultation at the age of 7 to 8. Most patients are surprised that orthodontic treatment is surprisingly affordable here. We are pleased to offer a special payment plan to honor military families from Fort Knox. We accept most insurance plans and file the forms on your behalf.
To get that perfect, healthy smile in a fun and professional atmosphere, contact DuPlessis Orthodontics, where research based treatment is performed with a payment plan you can afford!
