Dentistry

About this course

Dentistry is a clinical healthcare profession concerned with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of diseases and conditions affecting the teeth, mouth and surrounding structures. Dentists perform a wide range of procedures, from routine examinations and restorations to oral surgery, orthodontics and the management of complex dental diseases, and they play a central role in maintaining both the oral health and the overall wellbeing of their patients.
