Why Choose Luddington Orthodontics? Did you know?.....

An orthodontist receives 24 – 36 months of additional training to specialize in orthodontics? During those 2-3 years of training they are taught how to properly realign crooked teeth into a fabulous smile. Orthodontists not only straighten the teeth, but bring them into proper alignment as well. To become an orthodontist you must first complete four years of dental school, then continue on to specialize. Make sure to put your future smile into the hands of a trained orthodontist. Just because it is advertised “orthodontics” doesn’t make them an “orthodontist!” Always check to see if they are members of the AAO (American Association of Orthodontists) as only orthodontists are members of this society.
