Your orthodontist offers you oral health – it isn’t just words
Utterance of the endodontist no longer ensures a shiver of fear or sympathetic shudders of discomfort in the jaw bone. The job title formally linked with “tooth extractor”, with accompanying image of tortured patient, mouth levered wide open and industrial strength pliers clamped on one of his molars, now presents as a common title requiring more info. The dentist may do dental surgery, orthodontics, periodontics, prosthodontics, maxillofacial surgery, or (this sounds O.K) cosmetic dentistry. Often, your endodontist will have a variety of abilities from the benign dental check-up through laser cleaning, bridges, crowns and other dental restorations to the more uncomfortable-sounding root canal treatment – and beyond.
