What is Dentistry?<\/span><\/h2>\n

By definition, dentistry is the profession devoted to maintaining the health of the teeth, gums, and other tissues in and around the mouth. Good dental health is a combination of brushing and flossing your teeth along with regular visits to the dentist.<\/p>\n

Our dental professionals can help you prevent many dental complications. But do you know what type of dentist you should see? If you aren\u2019t sure what is the difference between an endodontist and an orthodontist, keep reading!<\/p>\n

\"Dentelli<\/p>\n

Here are different types of dental specialties and what they do for your teeth and your health in general:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n

    1.\u00a0\u00a0 Dental Anthropology and Morphology<\/h3>\n

    Dental anthropology and morphology deal with the anatomy, the genetic influence, and inherited changes in teeth and dental tissues.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    2.\u00a0\u00a0 Restorative Dentistry<\/h3>\n

    Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing or restoring damaged teeth structures. For example, it includes procedures like cavity filling or dental implants.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    3.\u00a0\u00a0 Endodontics<\/h3>\n

    Endodontics focuses on the health of the dental pulp and root tissues. You\u2019ve probably heard someone had a root canal treatment – that\u2019s it. Endodontists work to save your natural tooth.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    4.\u00a0\u00a0 Gnathology<\/h3>\n

    Gnathology studies the mechanics of the lower and upper jaw, the functions of sound pronunciation, and chewing. For example, if you grind your teeth, you will see a gnathologist.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    5.\u00a0\u00a0 Pediatric Dentistry<\/h3>\n

    Pediatric dentistry deals with dental care for children from infancy until adulthood. The first visit to the dentist should be between 2 and 3 years old (when all deciduous teeth come out).<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    6.\u00a0\u00a0 Oral Hygiene and Preventive Dentistry<\/h3>\n

    Oral hygiene and preventive dentistry help maintain good oral health. It is a combination of your proper daily dental care (brushing and flossing) along with regular dental check-ups.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    7.\u00a0\u00a0 Orthodontics<\/h3>\n

    Orthodontics treats improper positioning of teeth when the mouth is closed, usually with braces. An orthodontist can help you create a better bite and make teeth fit better.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    8.\u00a0\u00a0 Periodontology<\/h3>\n

    Periodontology treats conditions that affect the gums and the periodontal tissues – the structures that help support the tooth. The first stage of periodontal disease is gingivitis (a less severe condition that affects the gums), and the second stage is periodontitis (a severe condition that affects the supporting structures).<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    9.\u00a0\u00a0 Oral Surgery<\/h3>\n

    Oral surgery refers to the surgical procedure performed on your teeth, gums, jaws, or other oral structures, like removing your wisdom tooth.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    10.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Prosthodontics<\/h3>\n

    Prosthodontics deals with the restoration and replacement of the missing teeth and soft parts of the oral cavity, like the jaw or palate. For example, prostheses are made to help the patient to improve aesthetics, speech, and chewing.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    11.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Oral Medicine<\/h3>\n

    Oral medicine is a dental specialty placed between medicine and dentistry. It diagnoses and treats severe conditions that aren\u2019t responsive to standard dental procedures, like life-threatening medical conditions or complex diagnostic problems.<\/p>\n
