Odontology
Dentistry is a branch of medicine whose main function is focused on the advice
and treatment of oral pathologies. He provides his patients with the necessary
services and tools to treat infections and maintain healthy teeth and gums. At
present, multiple careers need a specialization so that the execution and result
of numerous processes is superior to when it is carried out by a person without
sufficient experience in the area. The same happens in dentistry, a treatment
carried out by a specialist obtains a superior and more guaranteed result in the
long term. In the present work the different specialties that are in this branch of
medicine can be shown.

Types of dental specialties

General Dentist: General dentists are primary care providers of oral health
and are one of the most common dental specialties.
Pediatric Dentist or Pediatric Dentist: Pediatric dentists specialize in
dental care and treatment for children and adolescents. Pediatric dental
specialists, also known as pediatric dentists, treat children from toddlers
through their teens.
Orthodontist: Orthodontists specialize in aligning the teeth and jaw through
the use of wires, braces, retainers, and other devices. If you have an overbite,
underbite, crossbite or misaligned teeth, you may be referred to an orthodontist
for correction.
Periodontist or Gum Specialist: Periodontists help treat and cure gum
diseases and problems. While the general dentist is concerned with the
prevention of gum disease, the periodontist is the one who will provide
treatment (including minor surgeries) for the tissue damaged by this
progressive gum disease. You may also be referred to a periodontist for dental
implants.
Endodontist or root canal specialist: Endodontists specifically treat
problems that affect the nerve of the teeth and the associated pain. They are
qualified to do root canals that may be necessary when there is decay around the
nerve of the tooth.

specialize in treating oral diseases of the teeth and jaw. Conditions can include
impacted wisdom teeth, oral reconstruction, a misaligned jaw, and cancers of
the mouth, head, and neck.
Prosthodontist: Prosthodontists repair teeth and jaw bones. They perform
cosmetic dentistry or treatments to improve the appearance of the teeth, such as
whitening and veneers. In addition, they take care of dentures, crowns and
bridges.

Conclusion
I would like to study this specialty because I like to satisfy people, helping them
and seeing beautiful results. I would like to help fix what many people see as
insecurities. Help them to have their treatment process and motivate them not
to be afraid, because it is a bit scary when people talk about something without
living the experience.
