Dr. Lamont Jacobs earned his Bachelor's degree from Ohio State University, where he graduated with an Orthodontic degree in 1988. He went on to become a leading provider for clear aligners, achieving Elite Provider status in 2010 and Platinum Provider status in 2018. He has been in orthodontic practice for over 25 years and has attained the highest clinical training and experience with the clear aligner system.
Dr. Jacobs has been recognized by Cincinnati Magazine as one of the Top Orthodontists in the Cincinnati area for the 10th year in a row, as voted on by his peers.

Outside of his professional life, Dr. Jacobs is a man of many interests. He is an avid soccer player, skier, and snowboarder. His love for these sports dates back to his college days when he was the co-captain of the OSU ski team in '84 and '85. He still enjoys playing soccer at least twice a week and competes against the varsity soccer team at the annual alumni game.
Dr. Jacobs is deeply committed to his community. Alongside his wife, Jane, he has been rehabbing homes in Hamilton, demonstrating his dedication to improving the area and the lives of its residents.
An accomplished woodworker, Dr. Jacobs has had some of his furniture exhibited at the Fitton Center for Creative Arts. Patients at his practice can appreciate his craftsmanship firsthand, with beautiful carvings displayed above each chair.
Oxford Orthodontic Treatments
Uptown Orthodontics gives you several awesome ways to straighten your smile. We have metal braces, clear braces, and clear aligners.
Fairfield Braces
Braces at Uptown Orthodontics in Oxford are an excellent choice for correcting complex tooth issues. They can sometimes work faster at aligning teeth and closing gaps than other treatments, potentially reducing overall treatment time.
Braces don’t require some of the more complex technology or expensive equipment that newer treatments can, making them a cost-effective orthodontic option. Traditional metal braces are one of the most efficient orthodontic tools available.
Metal braces are made out of metal brackets affixed to the teeth, then connected by wires and tiny rubber bands or elastics. These brackets, wires, and bands work together to apply gentle pressure that gradually moves the teeth into the desired positions, as long as you have regular adjustments with Dr. Skabelund and Dr. Jacobs.
In addition to metal braces, Uptown Orthodontics also offers clear braces, which function similarly but use translucent ceramic brackets. Clear braces are a fantastic option for those who prefer a more discreet appearance during treatment. Both types of braces provide effective results and can address a wide range of orthodontic issues.
Oxford Clear Aligners
Clear aligners are incredibly popular with both patients and orthodontists in Oxford and is the top alternative to traditional braces. Instead of brackets and bands, the clear aligner system uses a series of clear, removable trays to gradually straighten your teeth.
Our aligners are made of comfortable plastic material and customized to fit snugly over your teeth. To keep your teeth moving in the desired direction, you’ll need to switch your aligners out for the next one in the series every one to two weeks, as directed by Dr. Skabelund.
The clear aligner system can only work if the recommended guidelines are followed exactly! Aligners should be worn 20 – 22 hours per day throughout the treatment. If patients neglect to wear the aligners as directed, it can impede the results and add time to the orthodontic process.
Clear aligners are most efficient when correcting many of the most common orthodontic issues. For some complex cases, aligners may not be a suitable option. A free consultation with our team at Uptown Orthodontics in Oxford will allow us to determine your eligibility for clear aligners.
