Why should you choose an orthodontic specialist for your care?

July 27, 2009 by David Luk

Every dentist who offers braces is not an orthodontist. A licensed orthodontic specialist is a dentist who has completed an additional 2-3 years of training in orthodontics after dental school. Orthodontists have dedicated their practice exclusively to orthodontics. They are experts at moving teeth, helping jaws develop properly and working with you to help make sure the teeth stay in their new positions. Dr Luk is not only a licensed orthodontist, he is a board certified orthodontist. To become board certified, an orthodontist must successfully pass a rigorous exam and present cases before an exam committee. This is a high level of achievement awarded to only a small percentage of orthodontists.
