About Me
After double majoring in Biochemistry and Mathematics at Brigham Young University, Dr. Kory McHenry continued his education at the prestigious Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Florida (currently ranked in the top 10 dental schools nationwide). There he served as Student Body President while obtaining both dental and specialty orthodontic degrees and making the Dean’s List each semester. Dr. McHenry graduated summa cum laude, with the additional honor of receiving the NSU College of Dental Medicine Student of the Year Award.
Following his dental training, Dr. McHenry placed in the top 1% on the National Board Exam and began his career at Joe DiMaggio’s Children’s Hospital. In this role, he worked in conjunction with Plastic and Neurosurgeons as part of the Cleft and Craniofacial team repairing congenital anomalies in young children.
Outside of his practice, Dr. McHenry has performed extensive research for his field, much of which has been published in various professional journals. His work has also been presented to numerous organizations, including the International Society of Craniofacial Surgery, the American Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Association, the National Institutes of Health, and the American Association of Orthodontists. The AAO has especially recognized Dr. McHenry’s work and awarded his outstanding research in 2008.
