Cosmetic dentistry is generally used to refer to any dental work that improves the appearance (though not necessarily the function) of a person's teeth, gums and/or bite. It primarily focuses on improvement dental aesthetics in color, position, shape, size, alignment and overall smile appearance. Many dentists refer to themselves as "cosmetic dentists" regardless of their specific education, specialty, training, and experience in this field. This has been considered unethical with a predominant objective of marketing to patients. The American Dental Association does not recognize cosmetic dentistry as a formal specialty area of dentistry.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Specialty Definitions )〕 However, there are still dentists that promote themselves as cosmetic dentists. ==Fields== There are primarily two dental specialties that predominantly focus on dental esthetics. They are: # Prosthodontics〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Home - American College of Prosthodontists )〕 and # Orthodontics Cosmetic dentistry includes endodontics and also periodontics. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「cosmetic dentistry」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
