Oral Health

What is Dentistry?

Dentistry is the branch of medicine that deals with the study, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases and disorders related to the teeth, gums, and oral cavity. It encompasses a wide range of topics, from basic dental hygiene to the complex restoration of damaged teeth and the correction of misaligned jaws.

If you or someone you know is experiencing symptoms associated with dental problems, it may be necessary to consult a dentist. These symptoms can include:

• tooth pain or sensitivity
• gum swelling or bleeding
• loose or broken teeth
• bad breath or taste in the mouth
• jaw pain or popping
• oral sores or lesions
• difficulty chewing or swallowing
• missing teeth or gaps in the smile
