Who provides treatment for orthodontic needs?
Most general practicing dentists have the training to treat minor orthodontic problems. However, few dentists and orthodontists are trained to provide the more advanced form of orthodontic treatment necessary to tackle complex neuromuscular orthodontic problems that can correct not just crooked teeth, but a misaligned jaw that can cause a host of problems from the face to the neck and even to the fingers. Neuromuscular orthodontics can even improve the appearance of your face, if its shape has been adversely affected by misaligned teeth.
