Dentist के लिए Medical English: Toothache, Cavity, Cleaning, Filling, Extraction

यह लेख healthcare परिस्थितियों के लिए English communication सिखाता है। यह dental diagnosis या treatment advice नहीं है। चेहरे की गंभीर सूजन, बुख़ार, मुँह न खुल पाना, निगलने में दिक़्क़त, या ऐसे आघात (trauma) के लिए जिससे tooth टूट जाए या निकल जाए — तुरंत emergency dentist से संपर्क करें या emergency room जाएँ।

U.S. dental English उतना मुश्किल नहीं है जितना लोग सोचते हैं, लेकिन कुछ ख़ास शब्द बार-बार आते हैं: cleaning, filling, cavity, root canal, extraction, crown। मुख्य कौशल यह बताना है कि कौन-सा tooth शामिल है — upper या lower, left या right, और दर्द की प्रकृति। यह लेख उसी वर्णन पर केंद्रित है।
