About Prescott Orthodontics - Dr Frederick A Fenderson, Dr Allen J Sara

Dr. Fenderson, described as the area's only state board certified orthodontist, gets credit for correcting a severe underbite without jaw surgery and for quick fixes on broken retainers.

Reviews at this practice center on Dr. Fenderson's judgment and Dr. Sara's more recent addition to the team, with several accounts of the doctor advising families to wait rather than start treatment early. Results mentioned include a severe underbite corrected without jaw surgery and cases where crowded teeth straightened out in a matter of weeks. Reviewers also point to responsiveness during emergencies, such as a broken retainer wire repaired quickly or a child fit in fast when a bracket came loose. Adults doing Invisalign alongside their kids in braces and teens finishing treatment ahead of schedule both come up often.

We love Prescott Ortho! Everyone in the office is so kind and friendly. I bring my youngest 2 who are always running around the office despite me trying to keep them contained and they are all so sweet! They’ll make glove balloons to keep them occupied and just talk to them :) We have kids in braces and wouldn’t go anywhere else!

This office has been great for our family. Two of my kids go here, and every visit has been a positive experience. The staff is always friendly, helpful, and great with kids. We see both Dr. Fenderson and Dr. Sara, and they are both knowledgeable and great at explaining everything clearly. The whole process has felt easy and stress-free!

All 3 of my children saw Dr Fenderson in the last 10-15 years and it was great experience! Very accommodating and everyone was friendly! I decided it was finally my turn and I’ve come back to this office to be treated for my turn at orthodontics. There are several of the same employees that still work there which is nice and must mean it’s a good place to work! The office contributes to the community as well. The staff is helpful and friendly and with years of experience Dr Fenderson and Dr Sara are able to help with a new smile at any stage of life!

We’ve had such a great experience with this orthodontic office! The entire staff is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and welcoming from the moment you walk in. They really take the time to explain every step of the process so you always feel informed and comfortable with your child’s treatment. My son is currently getting treatment here, and it’s been such a smooth and positive experience for him. You can tell they truly care about their patients and go above and beyond to make everyone feel at ease. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an orthodontic team that’s professional, kind, and genuinely invested in great results!

All of the staff at Dr. Fenderson’s office are very friendly and professional. We feel very happy with our decision to bring our two children here for their orthodontics and would recommend this practice to other families just starting out. The treatment and payment plans and options are laid out clearly to families at the beginning and the kids are involved in that discussion, which we appreciate. They are also flexible and responsive to schedule changes. Kudos!
