Orthodontists and Dentists DirectoryOrthodontist is a licensed dentist trained in orthodontics. In North America most orthodontic treatment is done by orthodontists, dentists in diagnosis and treatment of malocclusions-malalignments of the teeth, jaws, or both. A dentist must complete 2-3 years of additional post-doctoral training to earn a specialty certificate in orthodontics. There are many general practitioners who also provide orthodontic services.
