About

Frerichs Dwight A DDS in Chula Vista's downtown district holds both a DMD and an MS in orthodontics, practicing dentofacial orthopedics from 345 F Street between Garrett and Landis Avenues. The orthodontic correction of pediatric malocclusion sometimes runs parallel to speech-language pathology at practices such as Stars Therapy Services, where tongue-thrust and articulation disorders overlap with open-bite and crossbite diagnoses. The clinical focus covers traditional metal-bracket systems, ceramic-bracket aesthetics, and clear-aligner therapy for Class I through Class III malocclusion in both adolescent and adult patients. Patients whose skeletal discrepancies require interdisciplinary input may coordinate with holistic craniofacial providers including Urban Sage Acupuncture & Wellness for adjunctive myofascial release during active orthodontic treatment. The highest-complexity cases involve two-phase interceptive treatment beginning with palatal expansion in mixed dentition, followed by full fixed-appliance therapy to achieve final Class I molar and canine relationships after permanent-tooth eruption.
