Dentistry
is a dental science that concentrates on achieving and maintaining good
oral health. In dentistry, you can expect a variety of treatments and
services that help prevent dental problems such as diseases affecting
the teeth, gums and the jaw and face.
There are many specialized fields of dentistry such as orthodontics, periodontics, pedodontics and endodontics.
Speaking
with your family dentist about anything that may require extra
attention and care is the best way to determine if you're a candidate
for a particular field of dentistry.
