Our History
Dr. Aaron McDonough started Granite Peak Orthodontics in June 2017 after practicing throughout the U.S. for 7 years. He envisioned creating a practice in a modern and welcoming facility where he and his team would provide outstanding care. Dr. Aaron dreamt of a team of highly trained professionals loving their job and working at Granite Peak Orthodontics forever. He's still waiting to see if the last part will come true.
Since starting Granite Peak, we have continued to improve every aspect of our practice. We are constantly training and working to improve our processes and patient interactions. We continue to seek out the latest technology and use digital impressions and 3D printing. One of Dr. Aaron's favorite updates was eliminating the dark room used to develop X-rays. It was replaced with the latest CBCT Digital X-ray machine which compared to X-rays, lowers the radiation and improves the imaging. There are countless upgrades and improvements being made every year to ensure that our practice is up-to-date and ready to serve you and your families. It's been an incredible journey and we want you to become a part of our practice.
Why Granite Peak?
Granite Peak is the tallest peak in Montana. It reminds us to continue learning, growing and to never stop exploring the world around us. We are an orthodontic office rooted in the mountains and rivers of this amazing place we call "home."
Our Team
Dr. Aaron believes in having the best-trained orthodontic team in the state. He’s passionate about teaching and learning and he believes continuing education is the key to a team that delivers top of the line patient care.
We keep training every day. We bring in the best local minds, search out the best national practices, and keep looking for better ways to do our work, care for our patients, and connect with our community.
Our training is not just about teeth. Although we train every month to the standards of the American Board of Orthodontics, we also learn about the world around us, the biology of the human body, the psychology of kids and teens, and how to listen and communicate effectively.
Our Mission
Our mission is to create beautiful smiles, continually improve the Granite Peak experience and provide smiling patients a lifetime of good oral health.
