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!


Got braces here a little over two weeks ago. They were nice and professional. They also listened to me and got me in front of a specialist and now I'm finally on the road to get surgery for my jaw. Really happy to have found them 🙂


Dani R


Absolutely love the staff here! Positive vibes a-plenty, and Miss Amy & Miss Regan (and Miss Cierra, too!) are absolutely fantastic humans whom I look forward to seeing during each visit. Thank you! 🙂


Matt Beckett


They are the most caring individuals. They take their time to explain everything to you and your child and are very patient in showing your child the correct ways to place bands. Great group of people. 🥰 Very calming atmosphere as well.

I had a hreat experience at OSO I had my braces for about 3 1/2 half years And they were always so nice. They always had the best treatments and everything And overall, my experience was amazing and my teeth came out perfect.


Gracie Gardner


This place is amazing! They are very helpful in many ways, made us feel extremely comfortable, and everyone that works there is so sweet. The main doctor came around doing checks was very friendly. I will recommend this place to anyone and everyone. Reagan is the one that help with both my boys and was super sweet and friendly. My boys LOVE HER! When you go ask for her she is the best!
