Stomatology is the clinical department for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the teeth, periodontal tissues, oral mucosa and maxillofacial region, primarily involving dental caries, periodontal disease, pulp disease, oral and maxillofacial infections and tumors, as well as orthodontics and restoration. Oral health is closely related to overall health; the department emphasizes a comprehensive oral care philosophy integrating prevention, treatment, restoration and orthodontics. Scope of Services and Common Conditions The department's main clinical scope includes: dental caries (tooth decay), pulpitis and periapical periodontitis; periodontitis, gingivitis and gingival bleeding; pericoronitis and extraction of complex wisdom teeth; restoration of missing teeth (dental implants, porcelain crowns and removable dentures); orthodontic correction of malaligned teeth; oral ulcers and oral mucosal diseases; and maxillofacial trauma, infections, cysts and tumors. For symptoms including toothache, gingival bleeding, tooth sensitivity, difficulty chewing and halitosis, the department provides systematic diagnosis and treatment. Specialized Diagnostic and Therapeutic Techniques Stomatology routinely performs root canal therapy, systematic periodontal treatment, resin restoration, pit and fissure sealing and dental cleaning. For missing teeth, it provides restoration options including dental implants, fixed bridges and removable dentures. The orthodontics division offers traditional bracket orthodontics and invisible aligners to improve dental aesthetics and occlusal function. The oral and maxillofacial surgery division manages complex wisdom teeth, jaw cysts and maxillofacial trauma; minimally invasive extraction techniques reduce postoperative discomfort. Who Should Visit and Clinic Guide Individuals with toothache, gingival bleeding, loose teeth, missing teeth or malaligned teeth, and children requiring regular oral examinations and fluoride application for caries prevention, are advised to visit Stomatology. It is recommended to undergo an oral examination and dental cleaning every six months to one year for early detection and management of oral problems. Children should receive regular fluoride application and pit and fissure sealing to prevent dental caries. Clinic Notes Seek timely medical care for severe toothache, facial swelling, limited mouth opening or maxillofacial trauma. For toothache, do not self-medicate with antibiotics for prolonged periods; seek early medical attention to identify the cause. Oral ulcers that do not heal for more than two weeks should prompt evaluation for oral mucosal lesions. Department Features and Advantages.

Root canal therapy, systematic periodontal treatment and implant restoration are at an advanced technical level, and the orthodontics division offers traditional and invisible correction options.
