How do you become a cleft lip/ palate researcher?

For example to develop treatments etc and how they came to be and stuff. What do you need to study and to become? My tutor was saying that you can go into research into cleft lip and stuff through by studying dentistry and then doing further research. Is this true?
yes, all researchers have degrees in general disciplines like a bachelors degree in dentistry and will then do postgraduate education and research in more specific fields until they can become veritable experts in things like this

if you want to learn more, look for a specific research and read their cv (most publicise their cvs and it'll have education, employment and research info on it)
Oh my gosh you don’t know How much this will
Help me!!! Thank you so much!!!!
Hi again, would you need a phd and stuff? Or after completing a dentistry degree and have ong a few years of experience is enough?
