Best Answer: Technically, India is a part of Asia; however, the land mass south of the Himalays is often referred to as the Indian Sub-continent, a smaller continent-like area with India, both Pakistans, and probably Nepal. I'm not sure what constitutes a sub-continent, rocks-wise, but any way ... Indian sub-continent.
A surgical extraction is a more complex procedure. It is used if a tooth may have broken off at the gum line or has not come into the mouth yet. Surgical extractions commonly are done by oral surgeons. However, they are also done by general dentists.
A general dentist will also provide preventative care such as dental cleaning (the familiar âscale and polishâ), teeth whitening and the correct way to brush and floss the teeth. Your general dentist is your first port of call for any dental issues you may have. If you are interested in cosmetic dentistry such as dental veneers then you may find that he/she is qualified to carry out this treatment. There are general dentists who are trained in specialist procedures such as these.
