Dept. of Orthodontics


A smile can make a big statement, but sometimes skeletal and dental differences can make beautiful, healthy teeth feel out of reach. The Department of Orthodontics at UTHealth Houston School of Dentistry teaches students and residents how to resolve these differences—from minor tooth irregularities to serious jaw malformations—and restore patient confidence. Our faculty employ the most advanced diagnostic and treatment techniques available while training tomorrow’s orthodontics leaders to follow in their footsteps. 

Your gift today, no matter the size, will help our experts continue delivering brighter smiles to patients of all ages.
