Dr. Grace Kerr
Helping patients is a natural extension of who I am, and I feel lucky to play this important role in the lives of such wonderful people. It’s rewarding to give someone the gift of improved health and a beautiful smile, and I do everything in my power to make every patient smile when they’re in my office.
As an orthodontist, I recognize that each person has different needs, both clinical and personal. Whether I am working with a child, teen, or adult, I focus on that person and who they are as an individual. By investing time to develop a relationship with each patient, I build the essential connection that will ensure they enjoy their orthodontic experience and their new, incredible smile.
The positive experiences our patients enjoy in our practice encourage them to take an active role in taking good care of their smiles for the rest of their lives.
I’m passionate about continuing education being an essential part of my responsibility as an oral healthcare provider. By remaining current on developing technologies and changes in treatment processes, I deliver the best care experience and the strongest results to my patients. I regularly attend local, regional, and national meetings and conferences; participate in webinar events; and study the latest research findings.
Personal Life
I have a wonderful husband and two terrific children. They are my greatest joy and deepest pride.
When not working or spending time with my family, I enjoy working out, long bike rides and needlepointing. I am an avid reader, and some of my favorite books include Memoirs of a Geisha, Plainsong, and The Book of Eleven. I love to participate in various volunteer projects. I’ve traveled to South Africa and New Orleans for mission trips and have served as a longtime Sunday School teacher. I am involved in my church, the Freestore Foodbank, and 1N5, a mental health advocacy organization. My deepest passion, however, is to build up others so they recognize their intrinsic worth—the way I best contribute to making this world a better one.
