"What is an orthodontist?"
|
| |
An orthodontist is a dentist who has undergone specialized
training to diagnose, prevent, and treat dental and facial
irregularities in patients. Within the U.S., orthodontists are
required to complete a two- to three-year advanced residency program
in orthodontics following the completion of their four-year graduate
dental program. Each of these programs must be accredited by the
American Dental Association's Commission on Dental Accreditation.
