Most medical dictionaries will use the term "Dental" some also use the term "Odontology".

Dr. Jon may be onto something, but we're not really sure what you mean. A lot of things related to teeth are preceeded by the prefix "odont-," such as "odontalgia," a fancy word used in medical circles for "toothache."
Ortho-dontia = ortho + odontia = straight teeth
Perio-dontia = peri + odontia = "around the teeth" = gums and bone
Endo-dontia = endo + odontia = "inside the teeth" = root canal

What? What is DENTIAL?
Do you mean DENTAL? That IS the term.

I think it's "dental".
Do you have any context where this term would be used? That might make a difference.
