What is an Orthodontist? An Orthodontist Tulsa is a highly trained specialist who has completed two to three years of advanced training in his specialty in an accredited, full time orthodontic program after graduating from dental school. This training enables the orthodontist to be expert not only in straightening teeth but also in bite alignment, growth guidance, facial development and management of joint disorders.
What makes an orthodontist different from a dentist?
Orthodontists are dentists first but they have undergone at least two years of post doctoral advanced specialty training in orthodontics in an accredited program. An orthodontist is a specialist, uniquely qualified to move teeth safely, help jaws develop properly, manage changing facial growth patterns, and correct bad bites. He does this all day, every day.
Why should you choose an orthodontic specialist?
Teeth and sometimes entire facial structures are permanently changed by orthodontic treatment. It is very important that the treatment be appropriate and properly completed. Dr. Wyatt and Dr. Flint graduated from dental school and elected to complete two additional years of specialty training following dental school to become orthodontists. They is certified by the American Association of Orthodontists, the only certifying organization recognized by The American Dental Association.
