A dentist is a healthcare professional who specializes in diagnosing, treating, and preventing oral health issues. They focus primarily on the teeth, gums, and mouth. Dentists play a crucial role in maintaining and improving oral hygiene and overall dental health.

Dentists emphasize the importance of preventive dental care to maintain good oral health. They provide guidance on proper brushing and flossing techniques, offer dietary advice to prevent tooth decay, and may apply dental sealants or fluoride treatments to protect teeth. Correcting misaligned teeth and jaws using braces, aligners, or other orthodontic devices.

Dentists educate patients about oral hygiene practices, dental care techniques, and the importance of regular check-ups. They provide information on how lifestyle choices, such as diet and smoking, can affect oral health. Treating infected or inflamed dental pulp by removing the pulp, disinfecting the root canal, and sealing it. Surgically inserting artificial tooth roots into the jawbone to support replacement teeth. Repairing cavities and restoring damaged teeth with materials like amalgam or composite resin.
