About

Dr. Bret Freedman, an Atlanta native, joined a large orthodontic practice as an associate (this is where the few negative reviews came from - and came after he left since the office transitioned and was not run the way it had been). Knowing that he wanted to build his own practice and treat patients the way he wanted to treatment plan and establish a warm and friendly atmosphere, Dr. Bret created Village Orthodontics. Village Orthodontics is a private orthodontic office, not owned by a corporation but by a Dunwoody native who desires to deliver the best care to his patients! Dr. Freedman grew up in Sandy Spring, Georgia. He graduated summa cum laude from Woodward Academy where he attended middle and high school. After spending the majority of his life in the South, Dr. Freedman decided to move north to attend the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. At Michigan, Dr. Freedman received his Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics with a premed focus, because he knew that in his heart he wanted to follow the career path of his father and grandfather in the dental specialty. This decision led him to the Medical College of Georgia School of Dentistry where he earned his Doctorate of Dental Medicine in 2008 and graduated in the top of his class. Throughout the course of his dental training, Dr. Freedman received many awards for his clinical and scholastic achievements including the Omicron Kappa Upsilon Cert. of Recognition, American Academy of Periodontology Award, and the James C Hickey Memorial Scholarship. Dr. Bret went on to receive his Orthodontic Specialty Certificate from Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Vanderbilt's rigorous training provided Dr. Freedman with the highest level of knowledge and clinical expertise in orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics and dental sleep medicine. Dr. Freedman currently serves as a part-time clinical assistant faculty member at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Division of Orthodontics. Dr. Bret has completed the written portion of the American Board of Orthodontics Exam to become board certified by the American Board of Orthodontics and is Invisalign® Certified. He is a member of the American Association of Orthodontists, the Georgia Dental Association, the American Dental Association, and a former member of the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine.

Care Philosophy

Village Orthodontics, was started with a uniquely different model than what patients typically see. To Dr. Bret, a 3rd generation dentist, it was simple, make the patient the focus of the practice. To achieve this goal Village Ortho provides both before and after school appointments and additionally the office is open to patients on Saturday. Some offices also only "see patients" one or two days a week- this is code that the orthodontist is at a different location - limiting the number of days of the week patients can make an appointments. For the patients this leads to super busy days of treating 80 patients and patients and parents often feel like they are in an orthodontic "FACTORY" Dr. Bret believes that the office should not be limited to specific "patient days" and office days. By combining these philosophies along with his love of actually working on the patients himself, he is able to provide ortho treatment and a fair price and provide one on one treatment for patients.

He had me stop by to look at my concerns and immediately remedied the problem where other professionals quoted me thousands of dollars & more invasive prodcedures. He was so helpful and made me feel new again. Can't express how grateful I am to have found him!

My wait time was efficient for a Saturday appt. This and the back office staff were very helpful is where the stars go. However, the front office staff is not efficient. I was told that I would be contacted on Monday for follow-up. No follow up for a week and when I called I was told to send my information over again which makes me think my personal information was not handled properly. I have reported this to my health insurance so they can review this office for reconsideration under my health plan. I have decided to look for another pediatric orthodontist for follow-up care.

When I first visited Dr. Freedman, I was greeted with a smile as soon as I enter the door. The staff and Dr. Freedman were all friendly and would always make me laugh. I felt so good when I took my braces off because I finally had a wonderful smile that I never thought would look so good. I know it's their job to make their patients teeth look good but I still want to say thank you so much for making me smile bright again.
