Naperville Orthodontist

Your Naperville orthodontist

Dr. Dwight Frey graduated cum laude from the University of Michigan and from Northwestern University Dental School. He went on to receive an advanced degree in General Dentistry from the University of Colorado Health Science Center before completing his specialty training in Orthodontics at Children's National Medical Center in Washington, DC.

Dr. Frey is a member of the Invisalign Innovation Leadership Panel and a contributing author to the TAD Clinical Reference Guide, a nationally distributed manual for advanced orthodontic techniques. He is an active member of the American Association of Orthodontists and has been recognized as one of "America's Top Dentists" three times by the Consumer Research Council of America. With decades of hands-on experience, Dr. Frey brings the kind of skill and attention to detail that families across Naperville, IL have come to trust.

Why see an orthodontist instead of a dentist?

An orthodontist is a dentist, but a dentist is not an orthodontist. Every orthodontist starts in dental school, then completes two to three additional years of specialty training focused solely on how and why teeth move. Dr. Frey has spent years studying nothing but diagnosis, planning, and the treatment that guides teeth and jaws into healthy alignment.

Seeing a specialist as your Naperville orthodontist can change your treatment experience by giving you more options across braces and aligners, planning built on experience with cases like yours, more efficient visits since orthodontics is our sole focus, and confidence in the outcome even when the bite needs serious correction. You will only stop by every six to eight weeks, and Frey Orthodontics is proud to keep treatment affordable for Naperville families.

Naperville Braces

Traditional braces remain one of the most reliable ways to straighten teeth and correct bite issues, and at Frey Orthodontics we offer the Pitts 21 self-ligating system along with clear ceramic brackets for a more subtle look.

At what age should a child first see an orthodontist?

Teen patients at Frey Orthodontics can choose from traditional metal braces, Pitts 21 self-ligating braces, clear ceramic braces, and Invisalign Teen. Dr. Frey recommends the option that fits each teen's case, lifestyle, and goals during a free consultation.
