Dentistry

Dentistry is a medical specialty focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of oral health conditions, including those affecting the teeth, gums, and mouth. Dentists provide a wide range of services, from routine cleanings and fillings to more complex procedures like root canals, crowns, and oral surgery. Dentistry also encompasses cosmetic treatments, such as teeth whitening and veneers, to enhance the appearance of a patient's smile. Preventive care, including regular check-ups and education on proper oral hygiene, is a key aspect of dentistry, helping to maintain overall oral health and prevent diseases like cavities and gum disease. This specialty is essential for ensuring a healthy mouth, which is closely linked to overall health and well-being.
