Sachin’s Answer

Hi Emem!

Orthodontics schools are remarkably competitive; many only admit between four and seven new students each year. Furthermore, programs in orthodontics are usually certificate programs paired with either a master's or doctoral degree in oral biology or a related field. The following link provides more information on some top schools:

Robert H.’s Answer

First you would have to get an undergrad from a 4-year university of your choice. Preferable majors exist in the sciences. Such as Biology, Chemistry, and Kinesiology. Then you would apply to Dental School. From that point, the concentration would present itself as a specialty.
