The Specialist Difference
in Central Ohio Orthodontics

Beyond straight teeth, we focus on the functional balance of your smile, jaw, and airway health.

Only 5% of dentists complete the additional 2 to 3 years of specialized residency training required to become board-certified orthodontists. This advanced education focuses exclusively on the complexities of tooth movement and facial development. 

By choosing a specialist, you ensure your care is managed by an expert who has mastered the biological and mechanical nuances of a healthy smile and long-term facial harmony.

Wigal & Kluemper Orthodontics offers a unique advantage through the partnership of Dr. Timothy Wigal and Dr. Alex Kluemper. This collaborative force brings together specialized expertise in craniofacial growth and surgical solutions to benefit every patient. 

Our team is dedicated to providing high-quality orthodontic care for families across Heath, Mt. Vernon, and Columbus.

Rooted in Experience, Focused on You

At Wigal & Kluemper Orthodontics, we are a family-owned, community-centered business where building lasting relationships is just as important as technical precision. 

We reject the “one-size-fits-all” approach of larger corporate dental chains and instead take the time to understand your unique goals. By treating our neighbors in Heath, Mt. Vernon, and Columbus like family, we ensure your journey toward better health is personal, comfortable, and rooted in trust.

Patients benefit from the distinct advantage of having two board-certified specialists collaborating on every case. While Dr. Wigal uses an in-depth approach to personalized treatment mechanics, Dr. Kluemper’s specialty training in craniofacial growth and surgical orthodontics allows us to address even the most complex orthodontic problems. 

This partnership ensures that families seeking Central Ohio orthodontics receive the highest standard of care, with two expert perspectives working together to produce transformational, long-lasting results.

The Advantage of Specialist-Led Care

Choosing a specialist means prioritizing your long-term health over a “quick fix.” At Wigal & Kluemper Orthodontics, we believe that true clinical excellence is found at the intersection of advanced education, modern methodology, and a patient-first philosophy. 

By understanding the science behind your smile, we provide results that support your facial harmony and overall well-being for a lifetime.

A Legacy of Specialist Expertise

While all orthodontists are dentists, only about 5% of dentists have completed the additional two to three years of specialized residency required to become an orthodontist.

As board-certified specialists, Dr. Wigal and Dr. Kluemper have dedicated their careers to mastering the science of tooth movement. This advanced training allows Wigal & Kluemper Orthodontics to provide a level of precision that general dental offices simply cannot match.

Airway-Focused Methodology

Our approach to Central Ohio orthodontics goes beyond just straightening teeth. We look at the "whole person" by focusing on how your bite affects your facial development and airway health. By ensuring proper jaw alignment and functional balance, we help our patients breathe better, speak more clearly, and enjoy a higher quality of life.

Precision Through Technology

Orthodontics has evolved significantly from the crude appliances used in the 18th century. Today, we utilize cutting-edge digital scanners and 3D imaging to map out your treatment with incredible accuracy.

This modern technology eliminates the need for messy traditional impressions, allowing us to create a more comfortable, efficient journey toward your new smile.

Commitment To Our Neighbors

As a family-owned practice, we are deeply rooted in the communities of Heath, Mt. Vernon, and Columbus. We reject the corporate "high-volume" model in favor of a neighborly approach that takes the time to build real relationships.

To us, you are never just a patient on a chart; you are a member of our community who deserves personalized care and honest communication.

Excellence that Fits your Family Budget

Too many people avoid orthodontic care for themselves or their children simply because they believe they can’t afford it. We provide a complimentary exam to help you understand your options and see exactly how affordable braces can be. 

With low down payments and interest-free payment plans, our care fits easily into most monthly budgets. At Wigal & Kluemper Orthodontics, your needs always come first. We work with you to ensure your treatment is of the highest quality while remaining accessible for your family.
