 Imagine a painting of women
smiling

imagine a picture of famous

painting of women smiling

Was it famous because of the

story of painter or painting in
general or the smile?

Why Dentistry
 Everyone knows Mistry of famous smile

It is one of the most talked about Famous

smile across the world amongst most of
civilizations

What bothers me the most is that in the

world's most famous smile you never
gotta see her teeth

I have been practicing dentistry for more

than 10 years now before getting into
explaining you how dentistry is more
Why Dentistry valuable then you think it is
Why Dentistry
Why Dentistry
Why Dentistry
 So not many people give the due credit to
dentistry before such a moment. This is
aesthetic need some will need the treatment
for get relief of tooth ache. If you think
dentistry stop here and the number of
treatments at the disposal of a dentist are just
limited to fillings and extractions. Then today
you take my word after 4 years you will be a
certified dentist to practice about 300plus
dental procedures.

Why Dentistry
 Dentistry goes back to very old
time and barbers use to yank the
tooth out without using
anesthetic.
This experience along with
absence of teeth in smile that was
seen in art placed a terror in the
minds of patients that has been
passed via generations.

Why Dentistry
 George Washington wore wooden denture
with wires and goes back to ancient times.

Why Dentistry
 But today we have moved far
from the ancient time where
photographs without a smile
showing teeth are not truly
happy. In this day and age
dentistry is very important and
painless dentistry exists

 In general condition Practioners should keep up to

date with the development in materials and use better
material that is easily accessible and capable of solving
the problem effectively.
