The MAO is a non-profit corporation organized under the laws of the State of Minnesota. The purpose of the Association shall be to promote, improve, and elevate the dental specialty of orthodontics in the State of Minnesota.

Orthodontic treatment by specialists help to improve patients dental health, and builds self-esteem by improving their bite and alignment of teeth.
