Meet your orthodontist
Dr. Kenneth Edwards
Dr. Edwards was born and raised right here in Hillsboro. After realizing there was a huge unmet need for honest, affordable, top quality orthodontic care in the area, he decided to make it happen. Dr. Edwards received his dental degree from Midwestern University College of Dental Medicine in Arizona before returning to the midwest for his orthodontic residency at Saint Louis University Center for Advanced Dental Education, one of the most prestigious and renowned orthodontic programs in the world.
With nearly a decade of experience and thousands of cases treated, Dr. Edwards brings a wealth of knowledge, training, and experience to his patients in Central Illinois. In addition to years of training and experience, Dr. Edwards stays on top of the latest research and technological innovations in orthodontics.
Edwards Orthodontics uses cutting edge digital technology to deliver the best possible outcomes in a smooth and efficient manner. The philosophy at Edwards Orthodontics is simple: a beautiful smile should be within reach to anyone who wants or needs it. The process should feel easy, welcoming, and fun.
When not in the office perfecting smiles, Dr. Edwards enjoys spending time with his wife and children, traveling, trying new foods, and adding to his ever-growing record collection.





Great Smiles Start Here.
Braces
Whether you go with classic metal or tooth-colored ceramic, braces at Edwards Orthodontics are built around your goals and your lifestyle. Dr. Edwards tailors every treatment plan to the patient, so you get results that are as efficient as they are effective.
Clear aligners
Clear aligners let you straighten your teeth without anyone noticing. They're removable, comfortable, and a great fit for teens and adults who want flexibility built into their treatment. Ask us at your free consultation if aligners are the right option for you.
Early treatment
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends children have their first orthodontic screening at age 7. This does not mean Dr. Edwards is going to suggest braces on your child this early. More often than not, your child is placed on observation to monitor progress as they age. Early screenings can often catch problems before they become bigger down the road.
