Extensive experience and skills in orthodontics are required to get accepted into the programme. The 3-year programme includes service in a university hospital and a public health care unit. The training is focused on facial and masticatory anatomy, function, physiology, development and growth and especially on treating malocclusion.<\/p>\n<p><b>2.<\/b> The masticatory organ is a delicate entity. Even small changes and movements of teeth affect occlusion. It is very important to have a comprehensive understanding of occlusion and orthodontic outcomes so that the treatment can be made safely and predictably to avoid unwanted complications.<\/p>\n<p><b>3.<\/b> Orthodontics is difficult and requires a lot of special knowledge and skills. Sometimes teeth do not move like planned. At a specialist clinic you can be at ease of mind since usually even in these cases solutions can be found to reach a good result even with alternative methods if needed.<\/p>\n<p><b>4.<\/b> Specialist orthodontists have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of different kinds of treatment methods and options. This allows the use of different methods best suited for your case. Orthodontists also have the access to all of Invisalign&#8217;s features and functionalities. General dentists are most often limited to only very minor tooth movements.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>5.<\/strong> Specialist training covers also facial growth and development and orthodontics for growing children.
