Orthodontist
Duties and responsibilities: Orthodontics, a specialty within the dental profession,
involves straightening teeth and correcting bites. As an orthodontist, you are
responsible for locating problems with the positioning of patients' teeth and with
their oral development. You might use x-rays or plaster molds of your patients'
teeth to do this. You will then use dental appliances, such as braces,
retainers and space maintainers, to correct these problems for the purpose of
providing better function, appearance and facial development.
Salary: the average United States orthodontist makes 196,270
per year
Education: the education required would be an Undergraduate
degree; Doctor of Dental Science degree via the completion of four years of
study at an accredited dental school; orthodontics residency
Reflection: I would care to be one because it seems to be an
interesting job to have. You may get discussed at times but in the end that’s
what makes the job fun and entertaining .this job would be fun because you will
get to learn about the mouth witch seems to be a complex but interesting
subject.
