About
Welcome to King & Knowlton Orthodontics - a full-service orthodontic clinic that offers comprehensive treatment for the entire family. We're pleased to have you consider our office to provide you with information about what orthodontics can do for you!
Today, more than 30% of orthodontic patients are over 18 years old. New dental technology has made the process easier and more effective than ever: better nonding techniques; lighter, less conspicuous wire; miniturized or clear appliances; and "clear" braces. All these developments have encouraged children as well as adults to seek orthodontic treatment.
Dr. King completed his dental degree at the University of Saskatchewan in 1993. During his dental education he won numerous awards, including The Gold Medal in Dentistry for graduating first in his class, and The W.A. Cotter Award for demonstrating the most caring attention to his patients during the program. Upon graduating with Great Distinction, Dr. King relocated his family to Medicine Hat and was a founding partner of Courtyard Dental Centre. He practiced general dentistry there for close to ten years. In 2002, Dr. King was one of three dentists in Alberta accepted to the graduate orthodontic program at the University of Alberta. His thesis involved extensive research on the use of low dose computerized tomography in orthondontic diagnosis. In 2005, Dr. King returned to Medicine Hat to provide increased access to orthodontic treatment for Southern Alberta.
