Dr. Jennifer Buchanan began her practice in1996 and has been creating winning smiles

and supporting the McKinney community eversince. Dr. Buchanan earned her Bachelor’s De-gree in Secondary Science Education at theUniversity of Texas at Austin, then went on toattain her DDS and Master’s Degree in Ortho-dontics at Baylor College of Dentistry.

Dr. Buchanan’s office is equipped with thelatest state-of-the-art technology, including therevolutionary I-CAT machine, which is an en-hanced 3D imaging system which producesfully-realized 3D images in seconds. She is thefirst orthodontist in the DFW area to have theLythos 3D scanner that can take a digital im-pression thereby eliminating the need for mak-ing impression models! With the digitalimpressions she is able to utilize the DamonSmile Insignia Braces System to create custombraces tailored to each individual patient, put-ting patient comfort and precision of treatmentat a premium. Amazingly, patients are able tosee their end result before starting treatment!

Along with her team’s concern for every pa-tient and their shared commitment to bringing

the latest in orthodontic technology to the prac-tice, Dr. Buchanan’s sense of compassionreaches out beyond her office and into the com-munity as a whole, where she is involved withlocal charities including Community Lifeline,Meals on Wheels, and the American Heart As-sociation. Dr. Buchanan is the founder ofSmiles Charity, which focuses on raising fundsto build homes for severely wounded veterans,and since 2008 she has hosted the annualSmiles Charity Concert, a free outdoor festivalthat has become a McKinney institution. The2013 Smiles Charity Concert drew 12,000 peo-ple and raised $125,000.

Dr. Buchanan is a member of the McKinneyRotary Club, McKinney Ladies Association,and a former board member of the McKinneyEducation Foundation and McKinney Chamberof Commerce. Through both her practice andher deep involvement in civic organizations, Dr.Buchanan is proud to be a part of the thrivingMcKinney community and grateful for the op-portunity to contribute to it. As for her profes-sion, she says, “Being an orthodontist isrewarding in so many ways, but the best thingis creating smiles that last a lifetime!”
