The docs are pretty clear on that:

dired-omit-mode is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `dired-
x.el'.

(dired-omit-mode &optional ARG)

Toggle Dired-Omit mode.
With numeric ARG, enable Dired-Omit mode if ARG is positive, disable
otherwise.  Enabling and disabling is buffer-local.
            ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If enabled, "uninteresting" files are not listed.
Uninteresting files are those whose filenames match regexp `dired-omit-
files', plus those ending with extensions in `dired-omit-extensions'.

Bye,
Tassilo
