What is an Odontist?
An odontist, also known as a dentist, is a medical professional who specializes in the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases and conditions affecting the teeth and mouth. Odontists are trained to perform a wide range of procedures, including routine cleanings and fillings, extractions, crowns and bridges, dentures, and oral surgery. They may also provide guidance on proper oral hygiene and nutrition to help their patients maintain good oral health. In some countries, odontists may be referred to as "dentists" or "dental surgeons."
