We offer care by two types of providers, depending on your preferences and needs.


The UCSF Orthodontics Faculty Clinic includes board-certified or board-eligible orthodontists with years of practice experience. All providers are UCSF faculty members. They are at the forefront of the orthodontics profession, publishing research and teaching the next generation of dentists and orthodontic specialists.


If time is an important factor for you, regular visits in faculty clinic are more efficient than in the residency program. The faculty clinic is most like a private orthodontic practice.


In the UCSF Orthodontics Residency Program, treatment is managed by a UCSF faculty member in concert with a postgraduate resident. Residents are licensed dentists who are in a three-year training program to become orthodontic specialists.

Your treatment plan is developed by your resident, together with an attending faculty member. At each visit you are seen by both the resident and faculty member. Visits can take longer, but fees in the residency program are lower than in the faculty clinic or at other private practices.
