Orthodontics is a distinct and specialized branch of dentistry. According to the GDC and Royal Colleges, the terms "Orthodontist" and "Specialist in Orthodontics" are synonymous, representing professionals with:
- Advanced knowledge and skills to diagnose, treat, and prevent irregularities of the teeth, bite, and facial growth in children and adults.
- The ability to deliver evidence-based orthodontic care that improves dental health, function, self-confidence, and self-esteem.
As specialists, orthodontists manage conditions such as:
- Impacted teeth, crowded teeth, and rotated teeth.
- Overjet (protruding upper front teeth) or reverse bite.
- Crossbites, deep bites, and open bites.
- Missing teeth requires adjunctive pediatric, restorative, or periodontal care.
- Complex interdisciplinary cases involving cleft lip/palate, craniofacial anomalies, or orthognathic surgery.
This program equips trainees with these essential competencies, ensuring they meet the highest professional standards for specialist orthodontic practice.
