They refer you to more specialized dentists when they feel it is necessary. Pediatric Dentists These specialize in dental care and treatment for youth and children. Children usually see them until they are 16. Orthodontists These are specialized dentists who treat jaw and teeth alignment issues. They use devices such as retainers, braces, and wires. Periodontists Periodontists are dentists who specialize in the treatment of gum disease.

Endodontists These are specialized in the treatment of conditions affecting the root of your teeth. They perform procedures such as root canal treatment. Oral Surgeons These are highly specialized experts who can perform surgery to treat issues related to jaws and teeth. They can also work closely with Ear, Nose, and Throat specialists (ENTs). Prosthodontists They repair jaw bones and teeth. They are also skilled in providing cosmetic dentistry which improves the appearance of teeth such as veneers and teeth whitening.
