One type of clothing dentists are known to wear is scrubs. This is what you'd usually see a dentist wearing. Scrubs are a shirt and pants - it can be short sleeve or short sleeve, whatever the professional decides to wear. The pants are never shorts, always long. You can find scrubs in a variety of patterns and colors as well. The main colors tend to be blue, white or green. Of course, there are other colors that are worn by dental professionals. You can even find scrubs that have your favorite cartoon characters.
Another piece of clothing that dentists wear is lab coats. Sometimes, you may see the professional's name written on the front of the lab coat.
There are some dentists that don't wear scrubs at all, they wear professional wear. You will see those wearing collared shirts, sweaters, skirts, dress shirts and dress pants. Most wear their lab coats over their regular clothes.
There are shoes that are made just for dental professionals. You can find these shoes listed under nursing shoes on websites that sell medical attire. The shoes resemble rubber clogs. You can find the women's shoes with different colors and designs.
Wearing vinyl and latex gloves is one of the things that dentists wear. They wear them while they're performing procedures on patients. This is to keep germs off of their hands and spreading.
