Orthodontic Therapy
When can I apply for Orthodontic Therapy?
Once you have an agreement with a Specialist Orthodontist who is prepared to train you, and supervise you.
Do I need any qualifications (other than my dental nurse / hygienist / therapist one) in order to apply for Orthodontic Therapy?
It is preferable that you have an orthodontic nurse qualification. Qualifications such as radiography and impression taking are also useful.
I don’t work in an Orthodontic Practice, can I train?
You need to have a Specialist Orthodontist to train you and supervise you, and you need to be working a minimum of 21-hours (clinically) in an Orthodontic practice.
Can you find me a trainer, or be my trainer?
No. We can advise regular trainers of your interest, but most trainers choose to train an individual with whom they have developed a working relationship with, something that it is preferable in our experience.
