Your Board-certified Orthodontist
Dr. Jacob Bleyer
Dr. Jacob Bleyer has a passion for helping patients to achieve the smile they’ve always wanted and the happiness that comes with it.
“Hello! I'm Dr. Jacob, and I'm thrilled to be your orthodontist here in St Louis. I'm originally from the small town of Marion in Southern Illinois. Some of my earliest memories involved visiting a Cardinals game at Busch with my family.
My family loves to visit the zoo and grab a frozen custard at Ted Drewe's. Sometimes, all in one visit! From these early moments, I've always viewed St Louis as a city of fun and excitement.”— Dr. Jacob
Background & Expertise
After my academic journey into orthodontics, I completed my undergraduate degree at the University of Illinois (GO ILLINI!). I earned my dental degree at Southern Illinois University in Alton (right across town from one of our offices).
Then, I finished my orthodontics specialty residency at Texas A&M University Dental School in Dallas. You may still catch me dropping the occasional "y'all." it was an easy decision to move back to the closest city to my hometown and become a part of this community.
Education & Experience
- University of Illinois – Bachelor’s degree
- Southern Illinois University - Master’s degree in oral biology

Memberships & Fellowships

I Had the Most Beautiful Smile
Dr. Jacob takes time to get to know you as a person and was truly concerned with making sure I had the most beautiful smile when finished. Plus, they made my appointments fun. He and the staff are just great.
Outside of the Office
When I'm not working, you'll often find me exploring new places, either around St Louis or around the world. I love to travel and experience new cultures. I'm a big fan of local restaurants, and you'll often spot me at dining spots around town.
I'm also a faithful supporter of the Cardinals, Blues, and City SC, so keep an eye out for me at Busch, Enterprise, or CityPark, and feel free to say hi.
I look forward to meeting you, working together to create a smile that you'll be proud of, and making your orthodontic journey as enjoyable as possible. I'm a big believer that my patients should always know exactly what's going on with their treatment, so good communication is key.
So whether you have questions about your braces or just want to share your favorite restaurants or thoughts on the Cardinals season, I'm always up for conversation!
