Dr. Katherine Bandos is our Kalamazoo dentist with experience in both family dentistry and cosmetic dentistry.
At Kalamazoo Smiles, we want your first visit to our office to be a welcome one where we can establish a lasting relationship.
At your first visit, we will discuss any areas of concern you may have and what your dental goals may be.
We do that in part by obtaining vital information such as your medical and dental histories.

She will also assess how well your jaw joints and muscles are working. This exam process gives you time to get to know, and feel comfortable with, our staff and the doctor. It also gives you the opportunity to ask questions and discuss your dental needs with Dr. Bandos.
