My Passion Your Smile

About Dr. Jen Moran-Kobes

I believe that dentistry is the perfect fusion of science and art. My journey began at the University of Illinois, where I realized I could combine my two greatest passions—science and creativity—to build a truly fulfilling career. From that moment, my path toward a life dedicated to crafting beautiful smiles began. In 1997, I founded Water Tower Dental Care, and it has been my privilege to help patients achieve the smiles of their dreams ever since. After taking time to raise my four wonderful children, I’ve returned with a renewed passion for creating undetectable, natural-looking, and beautifully crafted smiles. My commitment is to provide you with unparalleled care in a warm, welcoming environment, using the latest technology to ensure your comfort and stunning results.

Beyond my dental practice, I am a proud mom, wife, and artist. My artistic passion extends into painting with oils and acrylics, as well as my work as a scenic artist for local theaters. This creative background positively influences my approach to cosmetic dentistry, where every smile is a unique work of art.

I believe in the power of education and the importance of preventive care. My mission is not just to fix problems, but to help you maintain a healthy, beautiful smile for life. I use advanced digital tools and the latest techniques to provide precise, comfortable care, whether you’re here for a simple cleaning or a full smile makeover.

My goal is to make every visit a positive experience, leaving you with a smile that you are proud to share with the world.

Top 10 Most Inspirational Thought Leaders in 2025

I’m deeply honored to be featured in TIME ICONIC Magazine’s Top 10 Most Inspirational Thought Leaders in 2025 issue.
This recognition means so much to me — not only as a dentist, but as a woman who has walked through seasons of both challenge and growth.

My journey has been shaped by faith, family, and an unwavering passion for helping others smile with confidence. From building Water Tower Dental Care to taking time away to raise my family and overcome breast cancer, I’ve learned that resilience and compassion are the true cornerstones of leadership.

Dentistry, to me, has always been about more than creating beautiful smiles — it’s about restoring confidence, connection, and joy. I’m incredibly grateful to my patients, team, and community for trusting me with their care and for inspiring me every day to grow and give back.

Thank you, TIME ICONIC, for sharing my story among so many remarkable leaders who are making a difference in their fields.
