Meet Dr. Dan Kratzer – Orthodontist In Shawnee, Midwest City & Norman, OK
I was born and raised in Allentown, Pennsylvania. I am married to Kristin Kratzer, who is a general dentist. Kristin grew up in Green Bay, Wisconsin. We have 3 kids, Eliza, Luke, and Evan. My kids are young, but I can already tell they will all need braces. They are popcorn maniacs, and Luke really loves candy – so I’m no different than you when it comes to some of the future challenges of life with braces!

Orthodontist With A Passion For Orthodontics & Learning

I went to college and dental school in PA before moving to Oklahoma in 2008 to attend an orthodontic residency at the University of Oklahoma. After 11 years of school, my proudest academic achievement came in 2012, when I became board-certified by the American Board of Orthodontics, a designation that only 30% of orthodontic specialists achieve.

At OU, I met Dr. Behrmann and Dr. Kadioglu, who are the best partners anyone could ask for. Our common mission and vision for Orthodontic Specialists of Oklahoma is to improve the quality or orthodontic care and access to orthodontic care in the state of Oklahoma. We love what we do.

Outside The Orthodontics Office

My family and I love to travel, and our favorite place to relax is the Bahamas or the Mountains. I spend most of my free time playing with my kids, taking them fishing, going biking with them, and playing cards and other games. Luke is only 4, but he always tries to stack the deck when we play – but I’ve caught on to him! Recently we have been learning magic tricks and doing artwork. If I ever have any time to myself, I like to ride my bike or visit the YMCA.

Patients Love Us!


My daughter is a patient at OSO. I have been pleased with our experience and service. The staff is friendly and professional. Anytime my daughter has had an issue with her braces or retainer we were able to get in the same day.

Zay is my favorite person to go to! She’s super sweet, gentle, and always makes me feel comfortable. I haven’t had any issues with OSO and any time I’ve needed anything fixed they have been able to schedule me an appointment within the same week. All of their staff are super friendly.


Vivian Checo


Jordan, Madison, and Dr. Romero provided the best service. I immediately felt welcomed when I walked through the door. While I waited for my appointment time, I watched how the remainder of the staff interacted with patients and they were also extremely friendly and professional. I was there to have a permanent retainer fixed so I cannot speak for braces, but if I have any future issues, this office will be my first choice!

I love Orthodontic Specialists of Oklahoma! The team embraces you right when you walk in. When I first came for a consultation, I couldn’t believe how nice they were, specifically Jordan ❤️. I LOVE and admire her customer service. She is always ready to help, no matter the request. If you think you’re annoying, by having to constantly reschedule your appointments, Jordan’s reassuring attitude will put you at ease.All throughout the treatment, the dentists will ask you your goals for your teeth; they strive to ensure patients are satisfied, even once you have your retainers!Thank you so much to all of the kind staff for making my experience worth it! ❤️❤️
