French term
stomatologiste
The quote appears in a journal article explaining a dental examination programme introduced in France. I have figured out that a stomatologiste is not dental surgeon as this has been listed separately beforehand. However, translating this as stomatologist is not meaningful in the UK as this would be referred to as oral medicine. Also, why would someone working in this field be carrying out paediatric dental examinations? Is there a difference between France and UK for how paediatric dentistry works?

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.
Proposed translations

I found that option on Linguee however when I researched a stomatologist in France, it says that they are specialists in stomatology: https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/cache/metadata/Annexes/hlth_res_esms_an2.pdf I also found that they tend to have studied a medical course but do not have the required academic skills in conservative and prosthetic dentistry: https://educalingo.com/en/dic-fr/stomatologue |
