ABOUT US
MEET DR. CONWAY
I’m an Omaha native and have been practicing dentistry for more than 35 years. Over that time, I’ve been fortunate enough to have had the chance to learn a great deal from a variety of exceptional teachers, professors, and mentors from across the country.
Since starting my private practice in Omaha in 1994, I’ve had the opportunity to forge deep, lasting relationships with his patients, their families, and the surrounding community.
My relentless pursuit of systemic oral health through biologically based orthodontics is the reason that I continue to not only further my own formal education but offer education to other dental professionals through iCON Articulation as well.
The difference that patients tell me I make in each one of their lives is what keeps me smiling every single day I step into my office. I enjoy every single moment of it so much, I can honestly say I’ve never worked a day in my life!

Our Story
MEET THE DOC
MEET THE STAFF
Superior quality patient care first. Everything else second.
"Establishing healthy, beautiful smiles that last a lifetime”
Focus:
1.) Health
2.) Beauty
3.) Happiness
“This man is the most intelligent man I've ever known. Complete genius. I give all my respect to this man for fixing my teeth. I was a patient of this man for over 6 years and it was the best decision I've made. If you ever need an orthodontist to do the job get Dr. Conway. He's professional, caring, and serious about his work. I myself, a Pre Dental student in college, strive to have even a fraction of this man's intelligence someday. Of all the doctors I've known, he's still the best!”

Born and raised in Omaha, Joanie’s favorite aspect of her job as a Treatment Coordinator is getting to know new and returning patients. “It’s so nice to see returning patients grow and improve because so many families stay with us as patients across generations,” she says. “We tell every new patient, welcome to the family!” Outside of work, Joanie enjoys exploring Omaha with her husband, Dr. Conway.
