Orthodontists and dentists are working in the same profession, but they have different ways to look at things.
.
First of all, an orthodontist is a dentist who undertakes an additional 2 to 3 years of university full-time training and studies in orthodontics. Only an orthodontist has the post-graduate training to practice orthodontics.
.
Only a specialist orthodontist has the experience and knowledge to deliver safe and effective treatment. Orthodontists dedicate their lives to continuously updating their knowledge in the field of orthodontics. This is why seeing an NZ registered specialist orthodontist for your orthodontic treatment will ensure you can have absolute confidence in the level of care you will receive.
Orthodontics is what they do best. In fact, it’s what they do all day, every day.
.
You don’t need a referral from your dentist or dental therapist to make an appointment with a specialist orthodontist.
