| Description | Dentists play an important role in the field of healthcare, and a career as a dentist offers rewarding opportunities and great income potential. You can start your dentistry studies at Medicine Hat College, and then apply to transfer to the University of Alberta, or the University of Saskatchewan.
Dentistry is the treatment and care of the teeth and associated oral structures. Dentistry is mainly concerned with tooth decay, disease of the supportive structures, such as the gums, and faulty positioning of the teeth. Like medicine and surgery, it is practiced in specialized fields: oral surgery, orthodontics (corrective dentistry), periodontics (diseases of the gums), prosthodontics (partial or total tooth replacement), endodontics (treatment of dental pulp chamber and canals), and pedodontics (dental problems of children).
