Is the Orthodontist a Dentist? Is the Dentist an Orthodontist?



Did you know that your orthodontist became a dentist prior to
Being an orthodontist?
After receiving their degree in general dentistry some dentists
begin their practice in that field. Some further their education
to specialize in the field of their passion.
Dr. Statler went to school to become a general dentist, and practiced
Dentistry in the military for 6.5 years. She was a commander over
50 dentists in her assigned unit. Her passion for orthodontics took
her back to school  to further her knowledge/education  to be able to diagnose
and treat as an orthodontic specialist.
When you go to your general dentist, they specialize in general dentistry.
 When you are interested or need any other aspect of dental specialization,
you should ask your general dentist or the people around you who they trust
to take care of your special need such as Orthodontics.

The team at Statler Orthodontics support the many general dentists in our community and their wonderful efforts. As an important member of your dental team, we are here to serve you in any way we can.
