A dentist doesn't pull teeth right..that's an orthodontist?
An Orthodontist deals with braces. A Dentist does everything else including pulling the teeth.
Reply:A dentist pulled mine, not the orthodontist. Or an oral surgeon.
Reply:No, it's a dentist. An orthodontist puts on and maintains your braces, braces only.
