What Do You Do After You Graduate Dental School To Become An Orthodontist?

By Orthodontics Editor, on June 16th, 2009

When do you take the DAT? When do you take the National Board or do you not have to take it? Also, what should you do after dental school? I read somewhere that you should take a Science of Orthodontics course but I read somewhere else that you should do residency? I don’t know. Also, do you need to take the College of Dentists Board examination? Sorry, a lot of questions but I really need to know. Thank you for reading and answering [:

How Long Does It Take To Go Through Dental School Plus Specialty In Orthodontics?

By Orthodontics Editor, on June 11th, 2009

Here in UK -
5 years minimum at dental school. Then a further 2 years doing general professional training. (1 year practice, 6 months community and 6 months hospital). After that you need a further 2-3 years to do SpR training. You can then apply for your CSST and call yourself a consultant. If you simply wish to be a specialist practitioner, you can do that straight away although you should really do a lot of courses before then.

Do Dental And Orthodontics School Students Offer To Do Jaw Surgery For Free?

By Orthodontics Editor, on May 27th, 2009

Does anybody know if Dental and Orthodontics schools have a program where their student will perform lower jaw surgery for free or a discounted rate?

Orthodontics may be the specialty of dentistry that's concerned using the study and treatment of malocclusion (improper bites), which may be a result of tooth irregularity, disproportionate jaw relationships, or both. Orthodontic therapy can focus on dental displacement only, or can deal using the control and modification of facial growth. In the latter case it is better defined as "dentofacial orthopedics". Orthodontic therapy can be carried out for purely aesthetic reasons with regards to improving the general appearance of patients' teeth. Nevertheless, you will find orthodontists who work on reconstructing the whole face rather than focusing exclusively on teeth. Therapy is also frequently prescribed for practical reasons for example providing the patient having a functionally improved bite (occlusion).
