Answer: "Ortho" means "straight" or "correct", while "odontos" means "teeth".

Explanation: <u>"Ortho" is a Greek prefix that means "right" or "correct"</u>. It is used to form many words, such as "orthopedic" and "orthodoxy". On the other hand,<u> "odontos", which also comes from Greek, means "teeth"</u>. In that way, words such as "odontology" and "odontophobia" contain the root "odonto". Taking this into account,<u> "orthodontist" is used to refer to a dentist whose job is to correct the position in which a patient's teeth are</u>.
