Clinical Cases in Dentistry

The specialized field of healthcare which is focused on diagnosing, preventing, and treating various diseases and conditions that affect the oral cavity is known as dentistry. It plays a crucial role in the maintenance of oral health and treatment of dental issues to ensure overall well-being. There are several common diseases and conditions treated in dentistry such as tooth decay, gum disease and oral cancer. Tooth decay is a medical condition caused by the accumulation of plaque and bacteria on the teeth, leading to cavities and tooth loss if left untreated. Gum disease, such as gingivitis and periodontitis, affects the gums and supporting structures of the teeth, leading to inflammation, bleeding, and ultimately tooth loss. Other dental problems which are dealt with under this field are bad breath, dental abscesses, tooth sensitivity, malocclusion, and temporomandibular joint disorder. This book unravels the recent studies in the field of dentistry. It will help new researchers by foregrounding their knowledge in this branch of medicine.
