INTRODUCTION I was required to complete the relevant folio of Geomatic. I can make this folio is less than a week.

I get the material on this project through the website and the
scientific materials and articles.

I chose my career as Geomatics Engineering because I very interested in subjectsrelated to phys ics, mathematics, and science of geomaticsrelated subjects. Throughthis folio can I find out more information about the prospective of Ge omatics EngineeringLead after my graduation later. I also know about the history of Geomatics Engineering. Without making this folio, I inconvenient to understands what exactly the GeomaticsEngineering

What is Dentisry

Dentistry is the branch of medicine that is involved in the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders and conditions of the oral cavity, maxillofacial area and the adjacent and associated structures and their impact on the human body. Dentistry is widely considered necessary for complete overall health. Doctors who practice dentistry are known as dentists. The dentist's supporting teamaids in providing oral health services, which includes dental assistants, dental hygienists, dental technicians, and dental therapists.

Significant advances have been made in the practice of restorative dentistry. Development of high-speed, air-driven turbines combined with rotary cutting instruments fashioned from diamonds and ultrahard steel permits the rapid removal of tooth structure with little discomfort to the patient. In addition, many new materials for restorations and impression taking have become available. Especially important is the availability of composite resins which have sufficient strength to withstand biting and chewing pressures. Seven branches of specialization are recognized by the American Dental Association: oral surgery, orthodontics, pedodontics, periodontics, prosthodontics, oral pathology, and public health dentistry. Other subspecialties such as oral medicine, dental radiology, and periodontal prosthetics exist but are not recognized. Oral surgery treats diseases and abnormalities of the maxillofa-cial region by surgical means. Oral surgeons treat a wide variety of problems by removing teeth, reducing bone fractures, removing cysts, tumors, and growths, and correcting congenital anomalies and malformation of the structures of the maxillofacial region.

Orthodontists deal with abnormalities in tooth position and jaw relationships that result in facial disharmony and malfunction. The objective of orthodontic treatment is to establish normal occlusion and facial harmony. The teeth are repositioned and the jaws modified through the use of mechanical force applied with fixed or removable appliances. Successful treatment results in normal shape and expression of the mouth and lips, aids in enunciation and the sounding of words, and permits proper mastication. Pedodontics is the branch of dentistry concerned with the detection, prevention, and treatment of oral and dental diseases and abnormalities in children. The deciduous or primary teeth are very small and have shapes which differ from those of adult teeth; special procedures and materials are required for their conservation and restoration.

Periodontics is the branch of dentistry devoted to the study, prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases of the tissues supporting the teeth: gingiva (gum tissue), alveolar bone, periodontal ligament, and cementum. Periodontal diseases include gingivitis, periodontitis (sometimes called pyorrhea), primary and secondary occlusal traumatism, gingivalhyperplasia, and periodontal atrophy. Several types of anaerobic gram-negative microorganisms are thought to be associated with chronic periodontitis. See also Periodontal disease. Prosthodontics is the branch of dentistry devoted to the construction and replacement of oral structures with artificial substitutes. The replacement of teeth and other oral structures is necessitated by congenital abnormalities, loss of teeth from disease or trauma, and destruction of teeth or jaws or other parts of the mouth by surgical management ofneoplasms or trauma. Oral pathology is concerned with the detection and diagnosis of the diseases of the teeth, oral cavity, and jaws, and also with the oral manifestations of systemic diseases. See also Pathology.

Public health dentistry is defined as the science and art of preventing and controlling dental diseases and promoting dental health through organized community efforts. It comprises research, education, prevention, diagnosis, prescription, treatment of problems related to dentistry, and evaluation of community dental care

Environment field Responsibility: 1.The primary thing a dentist does is provide oral care to his patients. This care includes providing preventative care in the form of patient education on tooth, gum, and mouth care. 2.While a dentist typically does not conduct the routine cleanings that their patients receive that is a job typically reserved for the dental hygienist a dentist is responsible for examining the teeth, gums and mouth as well as a performing a variety of dental procedures including, but certainly not limited to, tooth extractions and fillings. 3.Dentists who specialize in oral surgery or cosmetic dental care, can perform additional services for their patients, and along with that comes even more responsibility to ensure proper care for their patients. 4.Dentists are often also responsible for properly training and supervising his or her staff as well. 5.Additionally, like medical doctors (MDs), dentists are required to comply with continuing education requirements imposed by their state. Work environment. Most dentists are solo practitioners, meaning that they own their own businesses and work alone or with a small staff. Some dentists have partners, and a few work for other dentists as associate dentists also some of them work for governments hospital and clinic.

Most dentists work 4 or 5 days a week. Some work evenings and weekends to meet their patients' needs. The number of hours worked varies greatly among dentists. Most fulltime dentists work between 35 and 40 hours a week. However, others, especially those who are trying to establish a new practice, work more. Also, experienced dentists often work fewer hours. It is common for dentists to continue in part-time practice well beyond the usual retirement age. Dentists usually work in the safety of an office environment. However, work-related injuries can occur, such as those resulting from the use of hand-held tools when performing dental work on patients.

Personal Qualities needed Active Listening

y

The ability to truly listen, understand and convey to the patient that you understand is a personal quality called active listening. People trust a dentist who listens, asks questions and does not interrupt when they are trying to explain oral symptoms or difficulties. Active listening also may reduce the time that it takes to diagnose a patient's problem. Dentists who also actively listen to their staff get filled in quickly on what is happening in the office and with patients. Active listening keeps the office and patient appointments moving smoothly.

Empathy
y

Dental patients may not follow routine oral care because of a lack of insurance, money or because they are fearful of visiting the dentist. Empathetic dentists understand why patients don't always take care of their teeth and realize that the resultant necessary procedures can be painful and expensive. They convey this empathy to their patients and teach them about upcoming treatments and future oral care.

Humor
y

Humor helps to soothe nervous dental patients, relaxing them and helping them to focus on pursuing better oral hygiene rather than past failures. Humor also provides a way for a patient to get to know the dentist as another human being and to trust the work that must be done to regain a healthy mouth.

Patience
y

Dentists also must have patience in dealing with their patients and staff. People may be fearful of visiting a dentist and may not want to tell the dentist about problems during the first visit. Dentists who practice patience can develop a rapport with their patients, putting them at ease and making the second visit a much easier one. Staff may be busy and overwhelmed by backlogs and complaints. Dentists should use patience in addressing these issues and training the staff in how to respond when he is not able.

Motivating
y

Dentists play a key role in motivating their patients to achieve and maintain better oral care. Part of motivating patients is educating, instead of chastising, them for poor oral hygiene. A dentist who has the ability to teach about oral health and its benefits in an interesting way can motivate others to take control of their own oral care.

Self-Discipline
y

One of the most difficult aspects of owning a dental practice is to have the self-discipline to see dental patients, to complete paperwork and to refile claims for work that was not covered by dental insurance the first time around. It is tempting for dentists to schedule appointments during normal work hours only, but they often have to work evenings and some weekends so that patients can come in when it's convenient or necessary for them.
