Dentists typically work in dental offices or clinics, providing patients with cleanings and more in-depth procedures like root canals and cavity fillings. By performing their job duties successfully, Dentists help patients remain free of pain and allow them to eat a wide range of foods, improving their quality of life. Diagnosing and treating dental problems early may also reduce the risk of tooth loss and even some health conditions connected to oral health, such as heart disease. When they interact with patients and perform procedures properly, Dentists positively impact patient satisfaction to increase business growth and patient retention.
