You are playing as a guest. Sign in to save your progress & unlock rewards!The dentist is a doctor who is specially trained to care for teeth. He or she diagnoses and treats problems with teeth and tissues in the mouth, along with giving advice and administering care to help prevent future problems. Dentists repair fractured teeth, fill cavities, remove tooth decay, straighten teeth, place sealants, whiten patient's teeth, and educate on proper oral hygiene.
Dentists use different equipment and technologies to do their job, such as laser and digital scanners, x-ray machines, drills, mouth mirrors, probes, forceps, brushes, and scalpels. They also must diagnose what is going on with a patient's mouth so they read x-rays as well and look for potential jaw problems, gum disease, or cavities.
Needless to say, to be a dentist you will need to possess a vast amount of knowledge to handle a variety of dental needs for your patients. Do you think you have what it takes to become a dentist? Take this quiz and see just how much you know about oral health and dentistry. Fret not if you have trouble with some of the questions, as only a dentist will score high on this one.

Just one issue: on the question concerning the enamel, the correct answer was off the top of the photo making the enamel invisible.

Wow, you did great! Are you a dentist or a dental student by any chance? Because if you weren’t then you should seriously consider the orthodontist career path.
Did it again!!!

Great work! You passed and should be proud of yourself, although you are still a ways away from being a dentist. For now, smile and show off your pearly whites because you did well.

Oh dear, you did not pass but that’s okay. This quiz was really tough, and we expect only dentists to do well in it. Take a break, schedule your next dental appointment and try this quiz again!
