A specialized dentist who treats jaw and teeth irregularities with braces and retainers

Answer 1

An orthodontist is a specialized dentist who treats jaw and teeth irregularities with braces and retainers. They are experts in diagnosing and correcting malocclusions (misalignment of the teeth and jaws) in order to improve both the aesthetics and functionality of the teeth and bite. Orthodontists typically undergo additional years of training after dental school in order to specialize in orthodontics. They offer a range of treatment options including traditional metal braces, ceramic braces, lingual braces (braces attached to the inside surface of the teeth), and clear aligners (such as Invisalign).
