What is the difference between a general dentist and a specialist orthodontist?

A Specialist Orthodontist is initially trained as a general dentist and then undertakes an additional 3 years or more of study to earn a Clinical Doctorate Degree in Orthodontics. This advanced training focuses on the diagnosis, prevention, and correction of mal-positioned teeth and jaws, as well as misaligned bite patterns.
