Dr. Heim is recognized by the American Board of Orthodontics as a board-certified orthodontist.  Dr. Heim was born and raised in Green Bay, Wisconsin. He completed his undergraduate studies at Marquette University in Milwaukee and continued on to dental school at Marquette University School of Dentistry.  Upon deciding to specialize in orthodontics, he chose the University of Oklahoma College of Dentistry to pursue his specialty training.  Ultimately, he loved Oklahoma so much that he chose to stay for his long term career, joining a private practice in 2006.   Dr. Heim has remained at the same northwest Oklahoma City practice ever since.  He also has a practice location in Kingfisher.  Additionally, Dr. Heim worked many years as a Clinical Assistant Professor in the undergraduate orthodontic clinic at the University of Oklahoma College of Dentistry.

When not working, Dr. Heim spends his spare time with his wife, Somer, a pediatric dentist, and their three young children. Dr. Heim is active in his church and neighborhood community and enjoys playing golf, grilling, and collecting vinyl records.
