Disease description:

Dental restoration generally requires visiting the Department of Prosthodontics. In dental hospitals or large general hospitals, the Stomatology Department often has specialized subdivisions. For dental restoration needs, patients should choose the Department of Prosthodontics. This department primarily handles treatments for dental defects and missing teeth, including various restoration methods such as fixed dental prostheses, artificial crown restoration, implant-supported prosthesis restoration, and removable denture restoration. Based on the patient's specific conditions, such as the extent of tooth damage and the status of tooth roots, doctors will develop an appropriate restoration plan. Additionally, if a hospital does not have a specialized prosthodontic department, patients may also visit the general Stomatology Department. Before the appointment, it is recommended to maintain good oral hygiene to allow the doctor to perform examinations and treatments more effectively.
