Quelle est la différence entre un orthodontiste (Dr. Dt. / Spécialiste Dt.) et un dentiste généraliste ?

Pendant que je recherchais les prix des traitements par corset, certaines cliniques proposaient des prix beaucoup plus abordables. Cependant, lorsque j’ai regardé le titre du médecin, il était uniquement question de dentiste, pas d’orthodontiste. Dois-je faire faire un traitement orthodontique par un spécialiste ?

You should definitely go to an orthodontist! A relative of mine had braces installed by a general dentist, the brace remained in his mouth for 3 years, and eventually he had to go to the university hospital because his tooth roots dissolved. The specialist physician receives only 4-5 years of braces and jaw training after 5 years of dentistry.

Physicians who complete 4 to 5 years of intensive theoretical and clinical orthodontic training with the DUS (Specialization Examination in Dentistry) or doctoral program after graduation from dentistry receive the title of "Orthodontic Specialist". Uncontrolled forces applied in the wrong vector can lead to root resorption and irreversible bone loss. A specialist physician should be preferred in order to preserve chewing function and jaw joint balance.
