The Importance of Oral Health and Its Relationship with Overall Health Cannot Be Undermined; Open Access Journals Ensure that the General Public is Made Aware of the Same
SINGAPORE, and LONDON (PRWEB) November 05, 2018 -- Dentistry is one of the oldest branches of medicine, dating back to 7000 B.C. with the Indus Valley Civilization. However, it isn’t until 5000 B.C. that descriptions related to tooth decay and dentistry became available. Ancient Mayans were known to practice dental surgery by filling tooth cavities with precious stones, such as hematite, jadite, quartz, and turquoise, among others. By the 1700s, dentistry had come to be defined as a profession. In 1723, Pierre Fauchard, the Father of Modern Dentistry, published ‘The Surgeon Dentist, a Treatise on Teeth’ that presented an extensive system for caring and treating teeth, for the first time. It was Fauchard who first identified that acids from our sugar intake resulted in tooth decay.
One of the most relevant transformations in the dental-care is the significant alteration in the prevalence of hard-tissue disease. The "dentate status" of the population has altered the blend and the focus of care. Dental implants and other related innovations have completely transformed dentistry in recent years. Implant dentistry currently accounts for approximately 15% of the total dentistry market and is a component of the dental specialties segment. These days applications like aesthetic dentistry, digital dentistry, implant dentistry, laser dentistry, and 3D printing are also available. The field is going to continue to change, especially because of the advances in technology and materials.
