An orthodontist is a dental specialist who focuses on the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of dental and facial irregularities, particularly those related to the alignment of teeth. They provide a range of treatments, including braces, clear aligners, and retainers, to correct issues such as overcrowding, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. If you're experiencing difficulty chewing, speaking, or cleaning your teeth due to alignment issues, or if you're concerned about the appearance of your smile, you may want to consider consulting an orthodontist. When choosing an orthodontist, look for one who is certified by the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) and has experience working with patients of all ages.
