Meet Dr. Keyser

Dr. Mary Morgan Keyser

Dr. K was a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of UNC-CH, completing her Bachelor of Science degree in psychology while minoring in chemistry and Spanish, with a brief stint studying abroad in Sevilla, Spain. As a member and coach of UNC’s women’s club lacrosse team, she helped the team bring home two national championships.
Dr. Mary Morgan Keyser, trusted dentist in NC

Dr. Keyser’s practice philosophy centers on four guiding values (we call them “skyscrapers” in our practice) — Personalized Care, Clinical Quality and Consistency, a Joy-Filled Environment, and Neighborly Community Connection. This framework drives a commitment to comprehensive, evidence-based orthodontic treatment that achieves not only beautiful smile aesthetics but optimal bite health and whole-patient care.

Areas of Study

Dr. Keyser went on to study orthodontics in Chapel Hill. During dental school, she met her now husband, Dr. Robb, who is a prosthodontist (dental specialist in implants and tooth replacement). During residency, Dr. Keyser conducted research on the relationship of jaw and tooth positions to speech. She was recognized nationally for her research and awarded the Joseph E. Johnson Clinical Award from the American Association of Orthodontics.

Associations

Dr. Keyser loves the world of dentistry and enjoys being involved in organized dentistry on many levels. She is a leader and board member of the North Carolina Association of Orthodontists (NCAO) and serves as a board member for the Invisalign Advisory Board representing orthodontists from all across North America.

She is also a member of the Raleigh-Wake County Dental Society, the North Carolina Dental Society, The Triangle Orthodontist Study Club, the American Dental Association (ADA), and the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO). She has served as a member of the American Association of Orthodontists Foundation (AAOF) Board of Directors. Dr. Keyser is also a board-certified orthodontist, which is a certification that only 60% of all orthodontists have.

Personal Life

When not enraptured by the world of teeth, the Keysers can be found training for various triathlons, playing lacrosse, golf, or tennis, attending any and all Tar Heel sporting events, or spending time with family. Dr. Keyser has two energetic sons—Wells and Cliff—and an equally energetic black Goldendoodle, Porter, who spends most of his days in our office as the therapy dog.

I went in to Keyser Ortho as an adult to treat a problem with my bite, it took a little longer than expected to get everything re-aligned, but I'm super happy with the results. While getting perfectly straight teeth wasn't my goal, it is nice to have a beautiful smile, along with being able to really bite down on food without worrying about damaging my teeth with the misaligned bite! Highly recommend working with Dr. Keyser and her staff, wonderful friendly team. They're also doing my son's orthodontia and his look great too!

Dr. Keyser and the entire staff are very professional, knowledgeable, personable, and overall just wonderful people. This was a fantastic experience from the initial consultation up to the completion of braces/Invisalign. Throughout my journey the doctor and staff answered all questions/emails/texts in a timely manner, fit me into the schedule to repair any unforeseen issues that I had in a timely manner, and made me feel like they cared about me and the experience. The office feels like a tight-knit family who are welcoming to all. Overall, this has to be one of the best orthodontist offices in the state and I fully recommend anyone searching for such services—whether Invisalign or braces to run, not walk to this office. You won’t regret it! A true breath of fresh air! P.S Alice and Allison upfront are just THEE BEST! You will love them.

Dr. Keyser and her team are absolutely wonderful! My daughter was very nervous about orthodontic treatment, but Dr. Keyser took the time to explain everything in a way that made her feel comfortable and even excited about her progress. The staff is always kind, patient, and welcoming, which makes each appointment something my daughter actually looks forward to. The care and attention they provide have made this process so much smoother than I ever expected. I highly recommend Dr. Keyser and her team to any parent looking for an orthodontist who truly goes above and beyond!
