About
Dr. Fred Piper has been in practice as a Memphis orthodontist since 1986. With locations in Midtown Memphis and East Memphis, his offices are within easy reach of dozens of schools. Nearby suburbs are East Memphis, Germantown, Cordova, Eads, and Collierville.
With over 30 years of experience in orthodontics, Dr. Piper can correct conditions that interfere with the function of the teeth. Those methods might include traditional braces, retainers, clear aligners, and TMJ therapy.
As a Memphis and Cordova orthodontist, Dr. Piper understands the importance of the after-school appointment and makes every effort to accommodate families on tight schedules. Braces for adults are well within Dr. Piper’s range of specialty too.
There is no substitute for the building blocks of traditional orthodontics: state-of-the-art wires, the child’s own growth, and the doctor’s talent.

Dr. Fred Piper
The “M.S.” in Fred Piper, D.D.S., M.S., P.C., means that Dr. Piper completed dental school, then earned a Master of Science in Orthodontics from the University of Tennessee Center for the Health Sciences. These additional years of residency qualify him as a specialist in craniofacial growth and development. His thesis focused on early care and adolescent growth, which he has continued to stress in his practice since 1986.
