What if my general dentist isn aware of whether a bad bite exists or if there is a growth problem?
If you feel that your general dentist is not aware of, or cannot handle, a growth problem that may exist, you should not hesitate to request the advice of an orthodontist. The caring, sophisticated general dentist will understand your needs and be more than willing to assist you in making the first appointment with an orthodontist. However, if you do not receive the desired assistance, you should feel free to contact an orthodontist on your own for he will welcome the opportunity to assist you and give you an orthodontic evaluation.
