AboutAbout the lab
The department that pioneered oral surgery in Japan.
The Oral Science Lab has a history of more than 100 years, beginning in 1918 when a dental clinic was opened in the Second Department of Surgery at Chiba Prefectural Hospital.
At the Graduate School of Medicine it operates as "Oral Science," and at the University Hospital as "Dentistry, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery."
At the hospital, the lab covers not only oral surgery but also a wide range of care, including general dental treatment and dental care for patients with systemic diseases.
At the graduate school, the lab carries out basic research centered on cancer, as well as research aimed at regenerating teeth and salivary glands.
