About This Provider
Dr. David Cortopassi, DDS, MS, has practiced orthodontics at Associated Orthodontists in Joliet, Illinois, since 1989, bringing more than 35 years of clinical experience to patients across Will County. His path into orthodontics was personal: he wore braces in junior high and decided he wanted to be the professional who helped others build confidence through a new smile. That motivation has guided his career for over three decades. Dr. Cortopassi completed his undergraduate studies at Loyola University Chicago, earned his DDS from Loyola University School of Dentistry in 1987, and finished both his Master's degree and orthodontic residency at the University of Illinois-Chicago in 1989. He holds active membership in the American Association of Orthodontists, the Illinois Society of Orthodontists, the Midwestern Society of Orthodontists, the American Dental Association, and the Will County Dental Society. He offers Invisalign, the Damon System, Smile Express accelerated treatment, and traditional braces, and he stays current with advances in orthodontic technology. He is conversant in Italian and Spanish.
