Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology focus on the study of oral health conditions and their distribution, determinants, and prevention at the population level. Oral diseases such as dental caries, periodontal disease, and oral cancers are among the most common health problems worldwide and have strong links to overall health. Oral epidemiology examines risk factors including diet, hygiene practices, tobacco use, socioeconomic status, and access to dental care. In public health, this field supports the design of preventive programs, such as fluoridation, school-based dental services, and oral health education. It also informs policy development and resource allocation to reduce oral health disparities. By emphasizing prevention and early intervention, dentistry and oral epidemiology improve quality of life, reduce healthcare costs, and contribute to better population health outcomes.
