"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.
