Hey Alisson I have another video on that but basically you take roughly 4 years of undergrad, 4 years of dentistry and 3 years of Orthodontics.

Hi! I am a student in primary school and I want to become an orthodontic, but I have problems. You need to be very smart. High school is more challenging than in America i think. You have to be great - in europe that means you have to have mostly A's. I wonder if it's worth the time. And the cool part is the dental-orthodontist school is FREE. I will go into high school next year and I really wonder if its worth the time to study and than go to college. Love from Europe 🇪🇺

Title: Day in the life of an Orthodontist Me, an Ortho assistant who works for not one but two doctors and does this every day: tell me more

[@wendybeltran4568]

If you don’t mind could you tell me about how much you’d recommend being an ortho assistant? How much school did you have to complete?

[@mishaamina962]

Hey Dr.Nate! I am currently a Highschool student that will be leaving for college very soon. I havetaken all these dual Enrollment classes and Ap classes for a major in bio so I can become a doctor, but I’m unsure if this is really what I want to do. I was told doctors work a lot of barely get to see friends or family and I didn’t want that happening to me. Orthodontist has had good reviews but I’m not sure if I want to become one because I heard it’s a lot of responsibility. You have to open up your own shop and buy all these materials for it, hire the people to work for you and I’m not sure if I’ll be ready to do all that . Is this what you had to do when you fully became an Orthodontist?

[@ThriveDentist]

Hey Misha. Everything depends on how you want your life to become. I want my life to be as fulfilled as possible which means I want to grow, learn, enjoy family/friends etc as much as possible so I constantly work on my business and personal life. I believe there is no better way to have an amazing life then have your own business and yes that's what I did. I love it and would never have it any other way. Also remember if you become a business owner you can have others work for you therefore you can make an income while still going on vacations, enjoying friends and family etc.:)

Hello, my name is mike and I am a junior in high school and I’ve been looking into becoming a orthodontist and I have a few questions for you. How often do you do surgery on a patient and how difficult would you consider most operations. How many years of schooling and on job training did you have to do. And lastly I was wondering, how hard is the competition to become a orthodontist? Thank you, you seem like a really good orthodontist and I hope someday I can be like you.

Hey Mike, we rarely do surgery on patients, it took me 12 years of school to become and Orthodontist and it's very competitive to become and Ortho but absolutely worth all the hard work!

Hi Dr. Nate! Thank you for the informative video. I am currently a dental student considering orthodontics. What do you think is the most difficult aspect of being an orthodontist?

[@ThriveDentist]

@hangluu I think the most difficult aspect of Ortho is managing so many patients. A GP will see roughly 8-15 patients a day whereas at a busy ortho practice you can see sometimes see 100 patients. You need great systems and assistants at those type of practices.

Hi Dr. Nate, I am a junior in high school and thinking about becoming an orthodontist. I have a few questions about it. Do you ever have time to go on vacation or hangout with family and friends? If you started your own business, was it hard to do and is it worth it to do so? Finally, (sorry for all these questions.) Do you enjoy being an orthodontist? I’m not sure if it’s a super stressful job or not. Thank you! have a great day!

Hey Devan. Yes, we love traveling and before COVID hit we would travel nearly every month. Starting your own business is very hard but so are most things in life that are rewarding. Also I love being an orthodontist. I don't think I can think of any career I would love more. It's stressful but I love being around people and helping them achieve the smile they deserve.

Hmmm not sure. I would ask your Orthodontist what's going on but hard to know without seeing you.

[@masteryoda5237]

Hey Nathan! I am thinking about becoming an orthodontist, and I have a question. How many years of schooling do you need to become an orthodontist, what is the starting salary, and if you were to start you own practice, would you be comfortable with actually getting paid? How does that work? And directly after school, can you start your own practice or do you work at another clinic. I know these are a lot of questions, but I saw in another comment that you go in at about 10 and leave at 6.Compared to the other types of doctors I've been looking at, that's pretty good. I was thinking about becoming a surgeon but the 6 am arrival time blew me off. I would not cope with that. So I would really appreciate if you answered my questions, and great video!

[@ThriveDentist]

Hey Jef, it took me 12 years to become an Orthodontist but you could maybe do it in 10 or 11 years. It's definitely a lot of schooling but well worth it. Most people work for another office for a few years (or maybe forever) until they feel comfortable starting their own office. Owning an office is definitely not for everyone but I love it. Surgeons have a great job too because they are typically done earlier and work less hours total but it takes a toll on your body. I'll be honest with you I worked 9-6 as an associate but my office hours are 10-6 yet as an owner I "work" way more than that. I don't really consider what I do work only because I truly love it which sounds corny I know but it's true!

Hey Jeff, I went to school in California but it's probably one of the worst states for business. We live in Texas now and it's been great for us. The midwest states are probably the best for business but you have to balance business with overall life quality and that's more of a personal decision.

Would you recommend I get it now or wait till I go to college and then find a clinic there and do it or what? Thanks in advance New sub btw:)

[@ThriveDentist]

Hey Vlad. We have patients that go to school far away and come back just for the normal college breaks (every 3 months or so). It's definitely not ideal and you will likely prolong treatment a little. If you are planning on attending the same college for 2 years or more I would probably just get them done near the college you are attending. It's really hard to switch Orthodontists mid treatment. Hope that helps!

I am having a problem. I wore a pallate expander when I was 21 for a couple of years and it messed up my palalle. I had a even pallate before I wore it. It caused my pallate to be uneven with the left side wider than the right and the arm of the expander cut into the roof of my mouth and left a permanent knot on the right side where its more narrow. I have been unhappy about this so long. I don`t know what to do or where to go so I can this fixed. Every oral surgeon I go to want to charge me for a consult and never help me and I get nowhere with orthodontic consultations either because they tell me they don`t put expanders on adults or they wont expand it so it will be even on both sides. The issue is the uneveness is really bothering me and I want something done to make my pallate symmetrical again. The places I go to dont listen and want to do anything for me and I hate that I am stuck like this because it was not like this before. I feel like I get the run around everywhere I go and ripped off and charged for nothing. Do you have any suggestions?

Hey that's a tough problem. It's true we don't use expanders on adults unless you do surgery. Sounds like a tough issue that may not have any good answer.

Hello! My left TMJ has degenerated a bit. It doesn’t seem to be getting worse and There isn’t too much pain but it’s quite tense. I had braces on for 3 years and had them taken off to rest my jaw. I’ve switched to a new orthodontist and he is recommending I use a splint to help heal and stop the degeneration from continuing. I have a couple questions. Would Botox replace the need to have a splint? Will exercises help or stress out the muscle? Is EWST an effective option? Is there any way the muscle can regenerate? Will braces make this worse? And finally how do I reduce the uneven appearance in my jaw? Thank you so much for taking time to read this.

What GCSEs would you need and what A levels grades would you need for dentristy

[@romanebady9695]

I’m pretty sure he’s in America or Canada where they don’t have GCSEs or A levels there, pretty sure that’s only in the UK. What I’d recommend is googling the required marks for the dental school you want to go to including the required A levels and GCSEs :). In Canada and US, you go to dental school after your undergrad but I’m sure that in the UK, dentistry is an undergrad degree, as far as specializing in orthodontics, I’m not entirely sure as I live in canada and don’t really know how it works in the UK, best thing for you to do is research (google) :)
