Meet Dr. Dan Kratzer,DMD, MS, ABO-Board Certified
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!


Had my Invisalign done yesterday and I seriously cannot say enough good things about Amy. From start to finish she was so friendly, patient and made the entire process feel easy and not overwhelming at all. She explained everything so clearly, gave me so many helpful tips and genuinely took her time with me, you can tell she truly cares about her patients. Her energy was so comforting and positive, which made a huge difference. Absolute top tier experience. Amy is AMAZING and I’m so thankful for all her hard work 🤍✨

We love Oso and appreciate their hard work to make our boys teeth beautiful.Sometimes we have to wait awhile for our appointments but generally it's a well run place. Nice facility. Wonderful people. Decent prices.

They helped my daughter get her smile back! I highly recommend them as they have fast, friendly service and scheduling is made simple. I really appreciate everyone who helped us over the past couple years in the office!


Lipstick in the Garden


I love this place!🩷 From the front desk to the technicians and the doctors, everyone is so welcoming and kind. The coordinator, Diana, is the sweetest—she took the time to walk me through the entire process in such a detailed and caring way. Britney, the dental technician, is absolutely amazing. She has the gentlest hands, and I honestly don’t feel a thing during my visits. The whole team makes you feel comfortable and cared for every step of the way. Highly recommend!
