Dental nurse & dental manager as part of the dental team and salutation for dentists

I have added minor edits on the page. Thanks! Lakanmalakas (talk) 02:36, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

They are not what Wikipedia considers minor edits (which are spelling/grammar edits) and are country-specific (which is highly inappropriate for the lead section, which is supposed to be a summary of an article]]. Please stop; see your user talk page. Graham87 07:07, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Dental nurse originated from the US and is practiced in other countries such as Philippines. Dental managers manages the flow in the clinic such as appointments, records, appreciation of cases, handling of bills and acts as dental nurse for the patient. !

Stomatology

Dentistry aka stomatolgy is a medical speciality. Till 2013 in countries like Spain France Italy Portugal and Austria stomatology was a 3 yr specialisation after medical school. It got separated in US and UK in late 19th century and the rest of europe followed especially after joining European Union. Dentists are specialists of oral and maxillofacial region and no other specialty can deal with it. Sagnikds6 (talk) 10:55, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

~~:I don't take requests seriously that come from sock/meatpuppets, but other users can feel free to handle this request. Graham87 12:37, 15 August 2023 (UTC)~~[reply]

I've struck out my above comment because it's untrue. I'm still not quite sure what to do with this request or where stomatology should be mentioned ... perhaps ask at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Medicine or [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Dentistry? Graham87 14:24, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
