From there, Dr. Tewes went on to earn his Doctor of Dental Surgery from Creighton University School of Dentistry, graduating summa cum laude and first in his class.

He completed his orthodontic specialty training at Mayo Clinic. Dr. Tewes continued to take his training and education to the next level to provide the best care possible to his patients by becoming board certified by the American Board of Orthodontics.Ā  All orthodontists must be licensed to practice, but at this time only 61% orthodontists have continued on to become a board certified orthodontist in the US.

He has since become a member of the American Association of Orthodontics, American Dental Association, and Midwestern Society of Orthodontics.

Dr. Tewes is a proud husband to Shelby, and together, they’re raising their beautiful daughters, Naomi and Evelyn.Ā Ā
