Cosmetic dentistry is the branch that deals with correcting and improving the appearance of teeth and smile. In general dentistry, there are dental hygienists, oral surgeons<\/a>, periodontists, endodontists and general dentists. Cosmetic dentists specialize in cosmetic procedures. A general dentist cannot perform cosmetic dentistry as they do not have additional training in this area. However, this does not mean that a general dentist cannot provide you with any cosmetic treatments at all. The primary job of a general dentist is to diagnose, prevent and treat conditions related to your teeth and gums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
