ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT DIFFERENCE

Education + Experience + Skill = Success!

We have all seen ads for do-it-yourself aligners, and some general dentists offer tooth alignment.  With so many options, it can be confusing!
 
Just as a nice golf club set does not make a great golfer – tools do not create skill.  Orthodontic tools (like braces and Invisalign) do not make an orthodontist.  They team together with education, talent, and experience. 
 
Tooth movement is complex, and involves a variety of factors to achieve success and keep your teeth healthy.

DID YOU KNOW?

After becoming a dentist, an orthodontist must complete a 2 to 3 year residency.  That is 3700+ hours of additional accredited training.  Some take it a step further to become Board Certified.
