Compassionate Orthodontic Experience for Every Smile
With over two decades of orthodontic experience, Dr. Jared C. Jesperson—affectionately known to his patients as “Dr. J”—offers thoughtful, individualized orthodontic care to patients in Orem and the surrounding Utah County communities. His passion for helping people transform their smiles is matched by a deep commitment to patient comfort, education, and trust.
Dr. J brings a unique blend of clinical excellence and real-life compassion to every patient interaction. Licensed in California, Arizona, and Utah, he has a long-standing track record of providing advanced orthodontic treatment to patients of all ages. As a member of both national and state dental organizations, including the American Dental Association, California Dental Association, Utah Dental Association, International Association of Orthodontics, and the American Orthodontic Society, he stays current with the latest innovations in orthodontics.
At Utah Orthodontic Care’s Orem location, Dr. J provides comprehensive services that include:
- Braces for children, teens, and adults tailored to each stage of development
- Invisalign treatment for discreet and effective alignment
- Functional orthodontic care including space maintenance and bite correction
- Supportive retainer plans for long-term smile retention
Dr. J is especially known for his calm approach and ability to explain treatment options in an easy-to-understand way. Whether you’re just beginning your smile journey or exploring alternatives to traditional braces, his goal is to help you feel confident from consultation to completion.
A Life Rooted in Family, Sports, and Advocacy
Originally from San Diego, California, Dr. J and his wife, Serena, made Utah their home after their oldest daughter began playing college basketball at Snow College. A father of four—three daughters and one son—he has spent 15 years coaching girls’ basketball and remains active in youth and community programs.
One of Dr. J’s deepest passions is his involvement in adaptive sports through the Special Olympics. His son, Jayson, is a nationally recognized adaptive golfer and multi-time tournament winner, including first-place finishes at Torrey Pines in 2024 and 2025. As Jayson’s dedicated caddie, Dr. J travels to support him across the country and internationally—including the 2025 Special Olympics World Games in Berlin, Germany.
In his downtime, Dr. J enjoys:
- Surfing the California coast
- Golfing Utah’s mountain courses
- Hiking throughout the Wasatch Range
- Volunteering with adaptive athletic programs
His perspective as both a healthcare provider and parent brings a layer of empathy and motivation that truly resonates with the families he serves.
