Voted Best Orthodontist 2021, Dr. Chris Freeman has been in the orthodontic industry since 1997. He went to some of the top schools in the dental and orthodontic field. He went to the University of Kentucky dental program and graduated valedictorian. While there he became an expert in restorative dentistry and TMJ issues which has proved invaluable in safely designing beautiful smiles. Because of his performance at the university of Kentucky, he was admitted to the prestigious University of Michigan where he spent 3 years in an intensive residency in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics. Dr. Freeman has also been fortunate enough to have been asked to teach both dental and orthodontic students, is also a published author, and received many academic and professional awards.
Not only is Dr. Freeman a twice accomplished board-certified Orthodontist, he is also a speaker on the topics of orthodontic technology, multidisciplinary treatment, improving care via teledentistry, as well as children's orthodontics. He is a current member and past President of the Broward Dental Association, Florida Dental Association, American Dental Association, American Association of Orthodontics, and past president of the local Spear Study Club.
Dr. Freeman is always striving to be the best at what he does. We stay up to date with all modern technologies along with cad-cam design, to minimize discomfort, increase esthetics and get you out of treatment faster. Our ceramic braces (tooth colored) will not stain and our metal braces are tiny to help keep cleaning easy. All this technology and attention to detail allows us to comfortably give you a beautiful simile in the shortest time possible, without cutting any corners.
Dr. Freemans ability to treatment plan and commanding knowledge of both dentistry and orthodontics have saved many patients from requiring surgery, which helped turn bad situations into good ones. When you choose Freeman Orthodontic Specialists, you receive expert orthodontics in every way, led by a doctor with a demonstrated history of working in and innovating the dental and orthodontic industry. He is skilled in clinical orthodontics, clear aligner treatment, dental management, teledentistry, emerging technologies, systems set up and implementation, 3-D printing, Clear Aligner manufacturing and all supported by a professional team.
After much frustration with existing companies not modernizing or allowing the orthodontistthemselvesto design aligners for their own patients in a way that eliminates many of these short comings, Dr. Freeman took it upon himself to start his own aligner manufacturing company. This allows him to design all of his own Clear Aligners right here in the United States, using materials that he feels are far better than the ones currently offered, providing him better control over the design and manufacturing process. This also allows him to eliminate many of the glued-on attachments and interproximal reduction (shaving of teeth) that is required for tooth movement using the other clear aligner systems. It also allows Dr. Freeman to be more efficient, as almost all other clear aligner systems are manufactured outside of the United States by non-dentists, and are not Board Certified Orthodontists.
Dr. Freeman was also able to eliminate much of the error introduced into the method by other aligner companies foreign technicians, by no longer having the foreign technicians try to interpret what Dr. Freeman wants done in the aligner prescription. Now, Dr. Freeman can simply move teeth exactly how it needs to be done, utilizing his 16 years of being an orthodontic clinician, and the 8,000+ Clear Aligner cases he's done right here in the United States. Dr. Freeman now has the ability to directly move patients teeth utilizing his own computer program, and allowing the patient cases to go right into manufacturing in our Fort Lauderdale, Florida 3D Manufacturing Lab.
At your first visit you will see there is no comparison between the comfort, clarity and efficiency of Dr. Freeman's Clear Aligners. In fact, his aligners are so well designed and comfortable, he has been asked to and is now selling a Pro version of his aligners directly to dentists to use on their patients around the country. Our Clear Aligners are the ONLY Clear Aligner treatments being done by an actual United States, Board Certified Orthodontist and 100% Made In The USA!
