Which department should I visit for oral health issues?

Generally speaking, common oral problems such as dental calculus, dental caries, and gum issues can be treated at the dental department. The dental department specializes in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of oral diseases, and includes both general dentistry and dental surgery, as well as more specialized sections such as periodontics, prosthodontics, and orthodontics. If oral problems involve serious conditions such as jaw and facial tumors or cleft lip and palate, patients are advised to visit the department of oral and maxillofacial surgery. Additionally, patients requiring dental correction or cosmetic dentistry can choose to visit the orthodontic or cosmetic dentistry departments. Before visiting a doctor, patients can first clarify their own symptoms and condition, and understand the departmental structure and specialization of local hospitals in order to choose the appropriate department for treatment.
