Orthodontist

A dental specialist who has completed dental school followed by 2-3 years of residency specifically in moving teeth and guiding facial development (dentofacial orthopedics).

Why It Matters

While general dentists can offer clear aligners, complex skeletal cases or severe crowding are best managed by an orthodontist who understands the physics of tooth movement.
