"What is an orthodontist?"
|
| |
An orthodontist is a dentist who has undergone specialized
training to diagnose, prevent, and treat dental and facial
irregularities in patients. Within the U.S., orthodontists are
required to complete a two- to three-year advanced residency program
in orthodontics following the completion of their four-year graduate
dental program. Each of these programs must be accredited by the
American Dental Association's Commission on Dental Accreditation.

*Minimal sedation, also known as anxiolysis, is the
use of oral and inhalation medications to relieve anxiety before and
during dental procedures that minimally reduce consciousness in an
effort to reduce fear and anxiety,
while still maintaining normal breathing and the ability to respond
appropriately to physical and verbal stimulation.
