"Dentist" - the word means a wide range of specialists. Someone is engaged in therapy, someone in tooth extraction.

The profession of a dentist covers a fairly wide range of activities: treatment, prevention of diseases of the teeth, periodontal, oral mucosa, surgery in the maxillofacial area, as well as prosthetics and correction of malocclusion with anomalies.
