My answer is A ....Am i right?
The assistant in my dentist's office helps the dentist with his/her work.
Do you know what the other people do?
prosthodontist is the one that makes the crowns and dental hygienist is the one that cleans the teeth.
Right.
but the dental laboratory technician makes replacements of natural teeth.So now I'm confused with c and b :(
It is confusing. I think that the technician helps the prosthodontist. I vote for c.
Check your text to be sure.
it was b
No, the correct answer is B. The person who makes dentures, crowns, and other prosthetic devices is a dental laboratory technician. They work in a dental laboratory and follow the instructions provided by the dentist to create custom-made dental prosthetics.
A dental assistant primarily provides support to the dentist during dental procedures, such as preparing equipment and assisting with patient care. A prosthodontist is a dentist who specializes in the restoration and replacement of missing teeth and oral structures. A dental hygienist focuses on preventive oral care, such as cleaning teeth and providing education on maintaining oral hygiene.
