What is an Orthodontist and How Can They Help You?

An orthodontist specializes in correcting misaligned teeth and jaws through therapeutic techniques that improve both oral function and aesthetic appearance. This dental subspecialty addresses issues related to tooth positioning and bite alignment.

Following completion of a DDS or DMD degree from dental school, orthodontists undertake an additional two- to three-year specialized residency program. This advanced training emphasizes facial growth patterns, dental biomechanics, and therapeutic approaches to correcting malocclusions.

An Orthodontist's clinical responsibilities include:

  • Specializes in correcting dental misalignments and jaw relationship problems
  • Conducts comprehensive evaluations including radiographic imaging, photographic documentation, and dental impressions to formulate treatment strategies
  • Manages various malocclusion types such as spacing issues, crossbites, overjet conditions, and jaw discrepancies
  • Employs orthodontic devices including fixed braces, transparent aligners, retention appliances, and expansion devices
  • Alternative titles: orthodontic practitioner, dental alignment specialist, DDS, DMD

Ensuring Data Transparency and Trust: A Guide to Vitals Doctor Listings and Reviews

Our provider data is gathered directly from physicians and publicly available databases. Providers who verify their profiles gain the ability to update information, offering additional details about their specialties,education, treated conditions, performed procedures, and accepted insurances.

Reviews on Vitals are submitted by users only. Recognizing the valuable insights these reviews offer into a doctor's reputation, we maintain internal policies and protocols to ensure the quality and accuracy of all reviews.
