“Welcome to our practice! I’m Dr. James Frugé, known around our office as Dr. Jim. I attended Louisiana State University School of Dentistry, where I graduated with honors and attained both my DDS and specialty certificate in orthodontics. Orthodontics has grown into a family practice where I have the pleasure of working daily with my brother, André, and my son, Bradley. I am very proud of our practice and all of the changes and transformations we have seen in our patients over the years. Having the ability to improve a person’s health and watch them gain self-confidence truly gives you a special feeling.”

“Orthodontics has given me the opportunity to work with and learn from people in all walks of life.

It takes all different kinds of people and personalities to make the world work!”

Education & Continuing Education

“Prior to becoming a Board Certified orthodontist, I attended the Louisiana State University School of Dentistry for both my DDS and Certificate in Orthodontics. After practicing orthodontics for more than 20 years, a lot has changed in my profession! I always strive to provide our patients with the latest methods and the most up-to-date technology.”

“In our practice, I’m passionate about trying to exceed people’s expectations. I want them to say ‘wow!’ at how great their smiles look when we’re done with treatment. A beautiful smile can truly change a life for the better, and that’s what we’re here to do!”

“A native of Baton Rouge, I graduated from Episcopal High School in 1997. I have practically grown up in the practice of orthodontics. As a high school student, I spent my afternoons and summers serving as a sterilization technician and have always been a part of the Frugé Orthodontics family.”
