Kristo Orthodontics

Kristo Orthodontics is a well-established orthodontic practice with a strong presence across Wisconsin, including its River Falls location. Founded by Dr. Andrew Kristo in 1959, the practice has grown significantly under the leadership of his son, Dr. Steve Kristo, who joined in 1988. It operates as a multi-location clinic, with over 15 offices statewide, demonstrating a broad reach and a team-based approach to orthodontic care. Kristo Orthodontics is dedicated to providing comprehensive orthodontic solutions for patients of all ages, from children as young as seven (with their "Confidence Counts Club" for early evaluations) to teens and adults. Their primary services include traditional braces and Invisalign® clear aligners. They emphasize personalized treatment plans, understanding that each patient has unique needs and lifestyle considerations. A distinguishing feature of Kristo Orthodontics is their patient-centric philosophy. They offer free initial consultations, which include a comprehensive exam, digital X-rays, a 3D iTero® mouth scan, and one-on-one time with an orthodontist to discuss treatment options and develop a customized plan. They are committed to making orthodontic care accessible and affordable, offering $0 down, 0% interest financing options, and a price match guarantee. They also work with all insurance providers, including Wisconsin Medicaid, BadgerCare Plus, and ForwardHealth. The clinic utilizes advanced technology, such as iTero® scanning for precise treatment planning and Invisalign Virtual Care for remote monitoring, enhancing convenience and efficiency for patients. Their orthodontists have specialized training beyond dental school, focusing on the safe and healthy movement of teeth and jaws to ensure optimal function and aesthetics. Beyond clinical care, Kristo Orthodontics is deeply involved in community support, actively participating in and sponsoring local non-profit organizations, youth sports clubs, and schools. They prioritize creating a welcoming, fun, and comfortable environment for patients, with a focus on kindness, honesty, and continuous learning within their team.
