Dr. Kurt T. Bowers, DDS, MS, is a board-certified orthodontist and the founder of Bowers Orthodontic Specialists in Bloomington, Illinois, where he has been in private practice since 1993. A Bloomington-Normal native and Bloomington High School graduate, Dr. Bowers completed all of his academic and clinical training at the University of Iowa, earning a Bachelor's degree, a Doctor of Dental Surgery, a Master's degree, and a Specialty Certificate in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics.

He practices alongside his wife, Dr. Stephanie Hanneman Bowers, who is also an orthodontist and serves as a consultant to the practice.
