All about Dentist
Dentists look after teeth and gums. They clean teeth, check for cavities and gum disease, fill holes, take X-rays and perform treatments such as extractions. Dentists also teach patients how to brush and floss well.
Dentistry requires precision and a steady hand, as well as good communication, since many people feel nervous about dental visits. Dental hygienists often work alongside dentists, focusing on cleaning and prevention.
