Features: Within the limited time specified in the teaching syllabus, it is impossible to provide a comprehensive discussion of oral medicine. Therefore, this book only offers a brief introduction. At the same time, it aims to ensure that students can perform basic treatments for certain conditions, so these are described in more detail, such as the first-aid principles for oral and maxillofacial trauma, early diagnosis of oral cancer, diagnosis and treatment principles for vascular anomalies, and prevention of caries and periodontal diseases. Common terms in oral medicine are also annotated with their English or Latin equivalents to help students face fewer difficulties when reading English professional literature in the future. Brief introductions are also provided for recently developed theories and methods, such as vascular anomalies, compression plating and eccentric compression plating for jaw fractures, and new restorative methods for dental arch defects.
