What does a dentist do and when should you see one
A dentist treats various diseases of the oral cavity. You should see a dentist if you:
- Experience pain in your teeth or gums.
- Notice swelling or inflammation in your oral cavity.
- Observe changes in color or sensitivity of your teeth.
- Need a preventive check-up or aesthetic assistance (whitening, filling).
- Have issues with your bite or mobility of your teeth.
Consultation with a dentist is important for the timely detection and treatment of dental problems.
What diagnostic methods does a dentist use
Dentists utilize various diagnostic methods to assess the condition of teeth and gums. The main diagnostic methods include:
- Medical history and physical examination of the oral cavity.
- X-ray imaging to obtain detailed images of teeth and jaws.
- Visual examination to identify cavities, cracks, and other damage.
These methods assist the dentist in accurately determining the diagnosis and treatment plan.

The treatment methods a dentist may employ can include:
- Filling (restoration) — treatment of cavities by filling tooth defects with specific materials.
- Crowns, implants, and other structures — restoration or replacement of damaged or missing teeth.
- Gum treatment — prevention and treatment of periodontal diseases.
- Tooth extraction — performed when a tooth is deemed irreparable.
