Orthodontics is a specialized field within dentistry. The term "orthodontics" is derived from two Latin words: "artu," meaning "straight," and "udon," meaning "tooth." As one of the most significant dental specialties, orthodontics is primarily concerned with the correction of malocclusions or improper alignment of teeth. This misalignment could be due to the incorrect positioning of the teeth, the relative positioning of the two jaws, or a combination of these factors. Orthodontic treatments aim to correct the position of the teeth and, in some cases, alter the pattern and direction of jaw development through orthopedic treatments. This specialty plays a crucial role in improving oral health and enhancing the aesthetics of one's smile.

Maternal-Fetal Medicine is an rapidly evolving field, with a particular emphasis on fetal care. Current research is exploring treatments involving fetal gene and stem cells, with the aim of providing early interventions for genetic disorders. Additionally, advancements are being made in fetal open surgery to rectify congenital abnormalities, such as congenital heart defects. Efforts are also underway to prevent conditions like preeclampsia, further enhancing the scope of this specialty.

Oral Pathology, a paraclinical branch in dentistry, involves the microscopic examination of oral lesions and diseases affecting the oral and maxillofacial region. These examinations are typically performed on samples obtained by surgeons during procedures. This specialty plays a crucial role in diagnosing various oral conditions, thereby guiding appropriate treatment strategies.

Information Science, often considered a modern iteration of Library Science, is a distinct field of study. Rather than solely concentrating on the organization of digital libraries, Information Science, or LIS, emphasizes the management, analysis, and evolution of information through the lens of computing and technology. This approach allows for a more comprehensive understanding and application of information in various contexts.

Anesthesiology is a specialized branch of medicine dedicated to alleviating patient pain during and after surgical procedures. Often referred to as the practice of anesthesia, it involves rendering the patient unconscious or numbing specific areas of the body to prevent pain and discomfort. Anesthesiologists play a crucial role in ensuring patient comfort and safety during surgical interventions.
