There are different types of dentistry some of them are given below:-


1) Cosmetic Dentistry:- Cosmetic dentistry is the field of dentistry related to improving the appearance of one’s mouth through dental procedures.

2) Laser Dentistry:- Laser dentistry eliminates many of the common complaints of traditional dentistry. A laser device replaces the rotary tool and can be used for everything from surgery to tooth bleaching.

3) Dental Implants:- A dental implant is a synthetic “root” which is literally implanted permanently, within the space where the natural tooth once lived. The root resembles a screw or rod. A custom-made artificial tooth is then affixed to the screw, creating a stable and natural-looking replacement for the lost tooth.

4) Dental Veneers:- Dental veneers are also called as Porcelain veneers are wafer-thin shells of porcelain that can be bonded onto the front side of teeth to make a cosmetic improvement in the teeth’s appearance

5) Dental Crowns:- crown is a tooth cap that is placed over a tooth thus covering the tooth to restore its shape, its size and its strength, thus making it look more attractive and ’normal’.

6) Teeth Whitening:-If you are an individual that suffers from tooth discoloration, a change in eating and drinking habits and/or quitting smoking or other tobacco use is recommended then you need teeth whitening treatment.

7) Dental Bonding:- Dental bonding involves the use of composite resin that is specially designed so that it can be color-matched to each patient’s teeth to provide a completely natural-looking result.
