1)    Prosthodontia : It’s specialists are known as  “Prosthodontist”  This branch    deals with placing the “ARTIFICIAL TEETH ”  in patient’s  mouth (fixed or removable.) this may be

             Hope   this article  has   increased  our  knowledge   about  different  branches   of  dentistry .  “ oral cavity  is  the  reflection  of  our  body.”  We generally  think ,  we should  rush  to  dentist  only  when  our  tooth  ache  and harass  us  but visiting  a  dentist   every  6  months   for  check-up  always  our  forthcoming   dental   problems   with  proper    treatment  plan.

      Most  of  the  dental disease  does  not   cure  with   mere  medications  it  requires    proper  dental  treatment ;  and  laziness   in reaching   to  dentist   invites  complications.
