Dr. Christopher Klein is an orthodontist and co-founder of Klein Orthodontics, a multi-location specialty practice serving Southern Illinois from offices in Mount Vernon, Salem, and Marion. He earned his Doctorate of Dental Medicine from Southern Illinois University School of Dental Medicine and completed a two-year orthodontic residency at St. Louis University, earning a Master of Science in Orthodontics. Together with his son, Dr. Brian Klein, he brings more than 60 years of combined clinical experience to the practice. Dr. Klein treats the full range of alignment concerns, from mild crowding to complex jaw and facial structure issues, using both time-tested and advanced techniques. Klein Orthodontics has completed over 1,000 Invisalign cases and uses the iTero digital scanner and DentalMonitoring app to support precise, convenient care. Dr. Klein leads with a patient-first philosophy, placing the whole person at the center of every treatment plan rather than focusing narrowly on teeth alone. His commitment extends into the community: he co-created the Smiles of Hope Scholarship Program, partnering with local Rotary Clubs to provide free orthodontic care to financially disadvantaged children across Southern Illinois.
