Orthodontics

Orthodontists are dentists who focus on the practice of orthodontics. An orthodontist is typically required to complete an additional two to three years of post-dental school education before becoming a certified practitioner of orthodontics.

An orthodontist reviews your dental records, performs a clinical assessment, takes X-rays of your mouth and head, and makes models of the teeth by creating an accurate impression of them. The results of this evaluation are studied in order to formulate the best orthodontic treatment plan.
