Steve Kristo, DDS, is passionate about everything he does, whether helping patients improve their lives by having healthier smiles or remodeling his second-generation orthodontic practice to be more efficient and ergonomically friendly.

“I want Kristo Orthodontics to be the best at everything it does from a clinical standpoint and a personal one. Providing the highest quality orthodontic care and taking care of patients throughout each of the communities we serve is the reason we’re here,” Kristo said. “I have an energetic and creative team that puts patients first in everything we do. It’s the key to our success and why so many of our patients leave our office smiling.”

Kristo Orthodontics’ flagship location in Eau Claire, Wis., recently underwent a major remodel, with the assistance of Kristo’s Patterson Dental team. The new practice space exudes an almost spa-like feeling that’s both adult and kid friendly, with state-of-the-art equipment and technology accented by striking design features.

An elegant reception area opens into a large center bay with eight workstations, each illuminated by A-dec LED lights and a wall of windows. Stylish and durable carpet, tasteful artwork and sprigs of greenery in petite glass vases add a special touch, further defining what makes Kristo Orthodontics unique from other orthodontic practices.

“There are notable differences here compared to a typical orthodontics practice, because we are continually looking for ways to deliver exceptional customer service and excellent patient care. This new practice features innovative designs and cutting-edge equipment that helps us achieve our goals,” Kristo said.
