What's the difference between an orthodontist and a dentist who does braces?

An orthodontist is a dentist who completed an additional accredited residency (usually 2, 3 years) exclusively in orthodontics. General dentists can legally provide braces and aligners, and many do simple cases well, but complex bite correction, surgical cases and growing children are generally better served by a specialist.

Am I too old for braces?

No, roughly one in four orthodontic patients today is an adult. Teeth move at any age as long as gums and bone are healthy; adult treatment sometimes takes modestly longer and options like ceramic brackets, lingual braces or aligners keep it discreet.
