Specialized dentistry

General Dentist

Most people go to a for the majority of their dental needs. A general dentist cares for patients young and old, from "baby teeth" to "wisdom teeth." But there are concerns or dental conditions that arise for which he may want you to see a specialist. In this case your general dentist becomes the "quarterback" of your dental game plan. He will rely on the guidance and recommendations of the specialist to bring your mouth back to health.

Endodontist

This specialist is concerned with the diagnosis and cause of diseases affecting the pulp or nerve of the tooth, or the tissues on tooth. These nerves, arteries and veins inside the tooth help keep the tooth alive. The most common procedure the performs is called root canal therapy. Root canal treatment consists of removing the infected tissue inside the tooth, sterilizing the inside, and filling the entire internal cavity with a special filling material. The tooth is now considered "non-vital."

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon

The diagnoses and surgically treats diseases, defects or injuries of the mouth, head and neck. Most patients think of oral surgeons removing wisdom teeth, and this is one of the most common procedures of oral surgeons. But they are involved with many other treatments besides extracting teeth. In accident cases they are called on to help with broken bones of the face and jaw. Or in working with other specialists, they will be asked to intentionally break and realign bones for a better position of the jaws for improved esthetics or function. Many are now involved with placing dental implants, or the root part of missing teeth. The general dentist will build a new tooth "crown" on the root form of this tooth implant.

Orthodontist

This specialist moves teeth within the jaw bone to correct forms of malocclusion or bite irregularities. Most children are sent to the to correct their "bad bites" while they are still growing. But many adults see this specialist to correct bite problems before they undergo extensive crown or bridge work. The most common method of correcting a "bad bite" is with the use of braces, but at times only a removable tooth positioning guard is needed.

Pediatric Dentistry (Pedodontist)

Having been specially trained to handle the fears of children as well as watch the growth patterns of a child's mouth, the treats children from birth through adolescence, though the most common age for a child to start seeing a pedodontist is age three. Usually the pedodontist also cares for special patients beyond adolescence who demonstrate mental, physical, and/or emotional problems.

Periodontist

The diagnoses and treats diseases of the gum and supporting bone surrounding the teeth. Most people think of this type of dentist treating "pyorrhea" or infections of the gums which causes teeth to become loose. Most times the general dentist will send a patient to the periodontist for an evaluation to check the "foundation" of the teeth before any major reconstruction is started. The periodontist also is involved with the placement of implants for areas of missing teeth and can surgically make changes in the gum tissue for a more natural gum smile line. He works closely with the general dentist to bring a patient's mouth back to full bite function with a full healthy smile.

Prosthodontist

Prosthodontists are specialists dealing with the repairing of natural teeth and/or the replacement of missing teeth on a much larger scale than the general dentist. The uses artificial teeth (dentures), gold crowns (caps), or ceramic crowns to replace the missing or extracted teeth. They work with the general dentist on more complicated dental reconstruction cases. Not everyone needs the extensive care of a prosthodontist.

Public Health Dentist

The concern of this group is with the prevention and controlling of dental diseases dental health to the community group through the use of organized community efforts. While a general dentist is concerned for the care of the individual patient, the is concerned for the dental care of the patients within a community. They organize large effort dental treatment such as dental disease screenings within a school or county.
