Of, relating to, or characteristic of dentistry or dentists and their practices.
From 'dentist' + '-ic' (suffix forming adjectives). Dentist comes from Latin 'dentis' (tooth) + French '-iste' suffix, making this a doubly derived term.
Calling something 'dentistic' is old-fashioned—you'd say 'dental' today—but it shows how English creates related words by adding different suffixes, and sometimes the older versions stick around in specialized or archaic writing.
