A dentist is a licensed professional in the Muggle world who specialises in oral health and hygiene. The profession apparently does not exist in the wizarding world, as Professor Horace Slughorn did not know what they were.[1]

Mr. and Mrs. Granger, parents of Muggle-born witch Hermione Granger, were both dentists. In the 1993–1994 school year, she considered getting them some Toothflossing Stringmints as a Christmas gift, believing they would enjoy them.

However, in the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, the clock in the Weasley house showing that Fred, George, and Ron are home from rescuing Harry passes over Quidditch, Jail, and Dentist hinting that dentists are known in the wizarding world, or that the profession is just known by the family through Arthur's knowledge of muggles.
