How Do I Become an Oral Surgeon?

Stomatologists diagnose, treat, repair, and prevent common oral and frequently-occurring diseases. The requirements for the treatment of oral diseases exceed the requirements for diagnosis. The precise treatment and operation technology is the key to the diagnosis and treatment of oral diseases. The diagnosis and treatment of oral diseases are integrated with examination, diagnosis, health care and treatment. Most of the diagnosis and treatment methods are local operations of a single person, and very few systemic medications. This places high requirements on the operation of the stomatologist. The role of the stomatologist is not only to restore the mouth, clean and implant teeth, but also to prevent and treat dental pulp, periodontal disease, and various oral mucosal diseases, to perform oral and maxillofacial tumor radical surgery, cleft lip and palate repair operations (rabbit lip Prosthetics), orthodontics and orthognathic surgery to correct the "Baotian" deformity (cavity restoration), etc. There are few inpatients in the stomatology department, almost all of them are outpatients, so the dentist can avoid the suffering of the night shift.
