Do orthodontist tell you parents smoke?

In the United States, orthodontists are not legally required to inform your parents if they suspect you of being exposed to secondhand smoke. However, some orthodontists may choose to do so as part of their commitment to providing comprehensive dental care and promoting good health for their patients.

If you are concerned about your orthodontist discussing your parents' smoking habits with you or your parents, it is important to have an open and honest conversation with them. You can express your concerns and ask them to respect your privacy. It may also be helpful to talk to your parents directly about their smoking habits and how they may be impacting your health.
