Private Dental, Orthodontic & Oral Surgery at our Dublin and Galway Clinics
If you are experiencing problems with your teeth or jaw, your GP (general practitioners) or dentist may refer you to a dental or orthodontic consultant. Dental and orthodontic consultants are trained professionals who are experts in diagnosing and treating problems related to the teeth and jaw.
Common reasons for referral to a dental or orthodontic consultants include crooked teeth, bite problems, gum disease, missing teeth, or jaw pain. Dental consultants may include endodontists (specialists in root canals), periodontists (specialists in gum disease), and prosthodontists (specialists in replacing missing teeth). Orthodontic consultants focus on correcting problems with the alignment of the teeth and jaw, such as braces or other orthodontic appliances.
During your appointment with a dental or orthodontic consultant, they will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth and jaw and develop a personalised treatment plan. Treatment may involve procedures such as fillings, root canals, or tooth extractions, or orthodontic appliances such as braces or retainers.
It is important to take care of your dental health and seek medical attention if you are experiencing any problems with your teeth or jaw. With the right care and support, it is possible to maintain healthy teeth and gums and achieve a beautiful, confident smile.
