What is the difference between an orthodontist and a dentist?
As a practice for modern orthodontics, we plan tooth correction for all ages using modern technology – as invisibly and quickly as possible.
An orthodontist …
… has completed additional specialised training lasting many years that goes beyond the normal dentistry training
… prevents, diagnoses and treats tooth and jaw misalignment
… has practical experience in treating complex malocclusions
… only works with healthy teeth
… has expertise in the area of new orthodontic technologies
… can recommend the best orthodontic treatment to suit the individual needs of the patient
A dentist …
… checks general dental health
… diagnoses disease in the tooth, tooth neck, mouth and oral mucosa
… promotes dental health and prevents dental disease
… recommends treatment plans to help you achieve the best possible dental health
