Different types of dentists

Posted on 4/24/2023 by Shiv Sharma, DDS
When you come to our dental practice, you will find different dental experts each specializing in a specific field that they had extensive education in. It is always important to find effective solutions, and this starts with getting treatment from a specialist. We have different specialists at our dental clinic including general dentists, pediatric dentists, orthodontists, periodontists, endodontists, oral surgeons, and prosthodontists. You can receive treatment from several specialists to ensure that you get an effective and lasting solution for your unique condition. General Dentists During your regular dental visits, you are likely to receive care from a general dentist. They deal with regular dental cleanings and exams. 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. A general dentist can prevent gum disease from starting, but a periodontist will offer treatment caused by advanced 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. Visit our clinic to receive treatment from our team of well-trained experts. Call us to book an appointment or talk to one of our specialists to find an effective solution and treatment....
