Orthodontics for Children in Oro Valley & Marana
Building Healthy Smiles
From the Start
Both the American Association of Orthodontists and Dr. Freytag recommend that Marana and Oro Valley children have their first orthodontic evaluation by age seven.
This early visit allows Dr. Freytag to assess how your child’s teeth and jaw are developing and identify any concerns early on.
Often, this begins a simple observation period with periodic check-ins. However, early orthodontic care can also help guide growth, improve alignment, and prevent more serious issues later.
Early Care for a Lifelong Smile
By age seven, your child’s mouth begins showing the early signs of jaw growth and permanent tooth development. During this stage, Dr. Freytag evaluates how everything is coming together to create a personalized plan for your child’s healthiest, happiest smile.
Early assessments can catch small alignment or spacing issues before they become bigger concerns. With early planning, treatment often becomes simpler, more effective, and even more affordable.
Setting the Smile on the Right Track
After your child’s initial visit, Dr. Freytag may suggest an early treatment phase, often called Phase 1, to gently correct small issues and support natural growth.
This phase typically lasts eight to 12 months and helps guide facial growth for a healthier, more balanced smile.
Afterward, your child will come in for routine checkups so Dr. Freytag can track new teeth as they appear and decide whether Phase 2 treatment is needed.
Finishing Strong With Phase 2
Phase 2 treatment usually begins between ages 11 and 14, after most of your child’s permanent teeth have come in.
If additional adjustments are needed, Dr. Freytag will design a personalized plan to fine-tune alignment for your child’s healthy, confident smile.

a Confident Smile
Helping your teenager get a healthy, confident smile is one of the best gifts you can give. A great smile can help your teen brighten a room and leave a lasting impression, no matter where they are.
At Freytag Orthodontics, we know how important it is to build confidence in the teen years, and we do everything we can to make that happen.
Our personalized treatment plans are designed to bring out your teen’s best smile while fitting comfortably into their busy life. With flexible scheduling, advanced technology, and a supportive team, we make orthodontic care easy, convenient, and empowering.
Treatment That Fits Your Teen’s Life
Your teen’s schedule is full — classes, sports, social events, and everything in between. That’s why Freytag Orthodontics offers treatment options that fit seamlessly into their lifestyle and daily routine.
Whether they want the subtle look of Invisalign or the dependable results of modern braces, Dr. Freytag helps each teen find the best orthodontic plan for their lifestyle and personality.
Invisalign for Teens
For teens who want a confident smile without the look of braces, Invisalign clear aligners are a sleek and nearly invisible option. Each set is custom-designed for your teen’s smile, using smooth plastic trays that gently guide teeth into place.
These aligners include small features that accommodate developing molars and ensure the perfect fit. Helpful wear indicators fade over time to make sure your teen is wearing the aligners as often as needed.
Invisalign is discreet, comfortable, and easy to manage, allowing your teen to stay confident through every stage of treatment.
Braces Made Just for Your Teen
At Freytag Orthodontics, braces are anything but one-size-fits-all. Using a quick digital scan, Dr. Freytag maps out your teen’s ideal tooth movement before placing your teen’s brackets.
Modern braces mean fewer visits, less soreness, and a quicker path to the smile your teen will love.

Why Adults Choose Orthodontic Treatment
Adults find orthodontic treatment worthwhile for many reasons, and our team is here to keep your smile journey simple and enjoyable.
Here are just a few benefits that past adult clients have experienced from braces or clear aligners:
Feel Good About Your Smile
Dr. Freytag uses modern orthodontic treatment to straighten crooked teeth and close gaps that may have affected your confidence for years.
A beautiful, confident smile helps you look and feel your best in every part of your life, from work meetings to family photos.
Your Teeth Can Shift Over Time
Teeth naturally continue to move throughout your life, even after adolescence. This shifting can cause bite misalignment, uneven wear, or jaw discomfort.
Treatment from Dr. Freytag can correct these issues and give you a healthy, confident smile that lasts.
Keeping Your Smile Healthy
When teeth are misaligned, it can be harder to brush and floss effectively, which may lead to plaque buildup, tooth decay, or gum irritation over time.
Proper alignment helps your teeth fit together comfortably, making it easier to maintain good oral hygiene and prevent unnecessary wear.
