How to Find the Right Orthodontist for You

Do you or your child have issues with misaligned or crooked teeth? If so, it may be time to seek out local orthodontic services. If you don’t know where to find the right orthodontist, a few sources can help. Read on for more insight on finding the right specialist for your teeth.

Check the AAO

The American Association of Orthodontists has helped patients find orthodontists since 1900. They only list professionals who have completed an orthodontic residency program and are accepted for membership in their organization. They not only list orthodontists in the United States but show ones in Canada and other countries. Going through their list is a great way to find orthodontic services as close as possible to your location.

Check Your Primary Dentist

Your primary dentist is always a great source for referrals for specialized dental care. Whether you need orthodontic services, endodontics, or more, your primary dentist can usually point you in the right direction. We’re fortunate enough to offer both dentistry and orthodontic services for kids, so you won’t have to look far!

Ask People You Know

Do many people in your life have straight, beautiful, white teeth? If so, why not have a conversation with them to see if they were just naturally born with a straight smile, or if they had some orthodontic help? Ask family, coworkers, friends, and neighbors who have smiles you’re envious of.
