Meet Dr. Davies
Dr. Kirk R. Davies has always known he wanted to make a positive impact in people’s lives. Improving his patients self-esteem and creating beautiful smiles is his passion. It is his genuine compassion towards people and his drive toward excellence in orthodontics that allows him to provide a caring and trusting environment in his office.
Dr. Davies' goal for every patient is to achieve the ideal in tooth, smile, and facial aesthetics, health of the chewing system, and long-term stability. These factors are utilized in development of an optimal comprehensive treatment plan for his patients.
Dr. Davies was born and raised in Waukesha, Wisconsin, graduating from Waukesha South High School in 1992. He is a 1994 graduate of Valparaiso University, and graduated first in his class at Marquette University School of Dentistry in 1998. While at Valparaiso and Marquette, Dr. Davies was team captain of the tennis team, and named a GTE Academic All-American during the 1995-1996 season.
After earning his dental degree, Dr. Davies received his orthodontic training at the University of Iowa Graduate Orthodontic Program, where he obtained his M.S. degree and specialty certificate in orthodontics in 2000. Shortly after becoming an orthodontic specialist, he published the article, “Deciduous Canine and Permanent Lateral Incisor Differential Root Resorption.” in the October 2001 issue of the American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics.
Dr. Davies is a Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics. In February 2009 he completed the recertification examination that included both an oral examination and case presentation in front of the American Board of Orthodontics to maintain his Board Certified status. He also is an Invisalign Certified provider. Dr. Davies stays abreast of the latest advances in orthodontics with memberships in the following organizations: Omicron Kappa Upsilon Honorary Dental Fraternity, Waukesha County Dental Society, Wisconsin Dental Society, American Dental Association, Wisconsin Society of Orthodontists, American Association of Orthodontists, and the Bottom Line Study Group. In 2008-2009 Dr. Davies was the president of the Waukesha County Dental Society. In 2004 he was named the SBA Wisconsin Young Entrepreneur of the Year.
Dr. Davies and his wife, Tracy, have two sons, Kallin and Andrew, a daughter, Taylor, and a Golden Retriever/Australian Cattle Dog mix named Herky and a Golden Retriever named Soka. When he is not creating beautiful smiles, you may find him reading, running, or playing tennis. Dr. Davies also plays the harmonica.
One thing many people may not know about Dr. Davies is that he is a fourth-generation dentist. His great-grandfather, grandmother, and father were all dentists before him. He also has two sisters, a brother, a sister-in-law, and a wife who are all currently dentists. Dentistry runs in Dr. Davies' family, maybe that is where he got his passion for orthodontics!
