Understanding the Role of an Orthodontist
Orthodontists are specialists in the field of dental care, focusing primarily on the alignment of teeth and jaws. Unlike general dentists, orthodontists undergo additional years of specialized training to master the complexities of tooth movement and facial development. Choosing an orthodontist like Dr. Vo for teeth straightening is advantageous because of this specialized expertise. Orthodontists are equipped to use a variety of treatments, from traditional braces to innovative clear aligners, to correct misalignments and bite issues, ensuring not just aesthetic improvement but also long-term oral health benefits.

Orthodontic treatment offers a multitude of benefits that go beyond just a straighter smile:
