Dr. Edward Herremans - Retired
Edward Herremans, DDS, MS
Orthodontics has given me the opportunity to meet great people and help provide healthy and beautiful smiles for my community for over 35 years.
Education and Continuing Education
Having grown up in Walkerville, I was a Walkerville High School 1956 graduate before I went on to Western Michigan University Pre-Dental School, where I attained my DDS in 1963. I then attended the University of Michigan School of Public Health, where I graduated with my MPH in 1972. Finally, I earned my MS in Orthodontics from the University of Michigan School of Dentistry in 1974. Since that time, I have attended courses and seminars in order to always stay abreast of emerging methods in my field.
As a part of my continuing education, I have become a Diplomate of the College of Orthodontics as well as a member of the American Board of Orthodontics. I have been taking continuing education courses since 1975, and have enjoyed being a part of an ever-changing profession. I have also been honored to be a lecturer for the Western Michigan Dental Society and the American Board of Orthodontics.
In the Practice
I can feel the trust in the children who come to see us and can see it in the look on a teenager when they smile at themselves in the mirror right after treatment. In adults, their confidence grows as their smiles change. In seeing these wondrous changes each day, my job and my passion are one in the same.
My team always strives to make our patients feel completely at ease here. We want our patients to look forward to their visits with us! We can often be heard joking and laughing with visitors during their appointments. It makes everything fun, and our patients really appreciate it!
Family Life
I am originally from Walkerville, Michigan, and have lived in Belmont since 1974. My beautiful wife and I have four children, two girls and two boys. My son, Tom, is a working orthodontist in this practice. I am also blessed with eleven grandchildren! In my spare time, I enjoy outdoor activities such as fishing, hunting, and hiking. I also enjoy reading, especially science and biology. I also love watching high school sports of all kinds.
