Hi Jayda,

According to Learn.org, you'll usually need to spend 2-4 years in an undergraduate program, 4 years in dental school and 2-3 years in a postgraduate orthodontics program.

You can learn the details about the requirements on this site:

Carol’s Answer

Jayda;

While I have not recruited for Orthodontists, nor have I attended college to become one, I have found that the best way to find out about any career is to go online and ask. I used Google. Here is what I found. Hope it helps. Feel free to reach back out.

<span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34);">It typically takes about </span>10 years<span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34);"> to become an orthodontist. It takes 4 years to obtain a bachelor's degree, another 4 years of dental school, and then 2 more years in a postdoctoral program devoted to the study of orthodontics.</span>
