Abstract
The American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) strives to support members in all
practice modalities, promote the orthodontic specialty, and support patient and public
health and safety. The business of orthodontics is changing. Nonetheless, the goals,
initiatives and values of the AAO serve to advocate for every AAO member, whether
they practice in an orthodontist-owned solo practice, a group practice, dental support
organizations (DSOs), orthodontic support organizations (OSOs), a military health
care facility or a hospital.
