Dr. JV Kracke graduated from the University of Pennsylvania and is a proud Villanova alumnus who loves to watch college basketball. GO CATS! He is a former varsity college swimmer, but he refuses to give up wearing his floaties. When he’s not swimming or having fun at Innovative Orthodontics, he’s trying to make any excuse he can to watch Friends!

He is a proud New Jersey native who loves spending the summers at the Jersey shore. Now that he’s finally convinced his beautiful wife, Kristianne, and their golden retriever, Penny, that New Jersey is the best state, he has moved back to join the Innovative Orthodontics team.

Braces helped give him confidence as a child, and he is excited to give all of his patients the same confidence with their smiles.

Dr. JV is a proud alumnus of Villanova University where he received his Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and graduated with honors. He went on to complete his dental training at the University of Pennsylvania where he again graduated with honors and was accepted into the Omicron Kappa Upsilon dental honors society. He loved Philadelphia and decided to continue his education and training in Orthodontics at the University of Pennsylvania.

He is passionate about education and served as an adjunct professor in the Villanova Department of Biology. He taught Human Anatomy and Physiology to many aspiring health professional undergraduate students. He has since been asked to come back as a guest lecturer to teach new orthodontic residents at the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. JV is a dedicated member of dental study clubs where he continues his education and shares his experience and expertise about the dental profession so he can ensure that he is providing the most innovative and exceptional care to all of his patients.
