no, because dentist and orthodontist are two diffrent fields. dentist clean teeeth, and orthadontist work on moving teeth. You will need to be examed by a orthodontist to find out what plan is for you. Dentist may however suggest braces, but most are not qualified to give you them.
And if you pay your orthodontist and he says it is safe for your mouth and wont mess anything up, then of course they will help you!

Why does Miley Cyrus have a lysp?
She doesn't have a lisp anymore. She did have a lisp because she used a retainer (which she calls a flipper - which she reveals in her book). She had braces for a short while but got then removed and switched for a retainer because she couldn't have braces on Hannah Montana. She doesn't use braces or a retainer now.
Do you have to have braces or can you just have a retainer?
Braces are designed to move your teeth into better alignment. A retainer is designed to keep your teeth in their current position following braces. If your teeth are where you want them to be, you do not need braces or a retainer. If they are not, you will need to have them moved with braces followed by a retainer to hold them in place.
If your teeth moved do you you need braces again?
no you don't because just getting a retainer will put your teeth back because you've already had braces.
