Hello,

I have some questions about practicing orthodontics in the US. Let's say a dentist, who graduated in the US, attends and does some workshop programs (inside and outside the US) regarding orthodontic treatments without actually being trained by the dental school's orthodontics program. Is it legal for that dentist to practice orthodontics treatment?

Thank you :)

Any dentist can practice traditionally specialty procedures. Just be aware that your standards for liability will also be at the same level
