Dr. Ron Carmen, a Columbus native, has been serving the city and its surrounding communities since 1978. He received his Bachelor of Science from The Ohio State University in 1969 and his Doctorate of Dental Science from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland in 1973.
After working as a dentist for a few years in Boston, finishing his HEW Fellowship at the University of Minnesota,and earning his Master’s degree and a post doctoral certificate in orthodontics from Case Western, Dr. Carmen established his orthodontic and TMJ (temporomandibular joint dysfunction) treatment practice in Columbus.
Dr. Carmen favors conservative, non-extraction treatments and will do everything he can to save natural teeth. He is an Invisalign®-certified provider and has a special interest in helping patients who suffer from facial pain and headaches.
Dr. Jesse Carmen is also a native of Columbus, and, as you may have guessed, he’s Dr. Ron Carmen’s son! The orthodontic field was a natural choice for Dr. Jesse as a result of watching his father in the profession for his entire life.
He earned his bachelor’s degree from the University of Michigan honors program. He then graduated cum laude from the Ohio State College of Dentistry, where he received his Doctorate of Dental Science. Upon completion of his orthodontic residency at Case Western Reserve University, Dr. Jesse entered our practice!
Dr. Jesse is an Invisalign® Top 1% Diamond provider! His favorite thing about being an orthodontist is the opportunity to take part in increasing the self-esteem and self-confidence of all his patients.
When he’s not perfecting smiles in the community, he loves spending time with his daughter Ava, his son Austin, his wife Alison, and their dog Rosco!

We highly recommend them!Linda Black2023-01-25Dr Jesse and staff are amazing! They are all so friendly and helpful. Our pediatric dentist Dr Leavitt referred us to Carmen Orthodontics because they are known for not pulling teeth to achieve a beautiful smile. If you or anyone in your family needs orthodontics, I would strongly recommend giving Carmen Orthodontics a call for a consultation!! 01/2023 Update: I just finished my Invisalign treatment and couldn’t be happier with the results. Dr Jesse and staff made this a great experience. Note to former braces patients, wearing your retainers is essential, or you might be like me and have Invisalign or braces to correct the shifting of your teeth. Thank hoo Dr Jesse and staff!!!!Liz Bell2023-01-18After being referred by my dentist to Dr. Jesse I started my journey with Carmen Orthodontics. As an adult I was worried it was going to take years and years to get my teeth to where I wanted them to be and that I'd spend several days each month in the office. With the technology that they offer I only had to go into the office a handful of times and was able to get my teeth looking amazing in what felt like no time. Dr. Jesse and all his staff from the hygenists to the front desk people and the financial staff, everyone was so amazing and great to deal with!
