We can see that there are a number of conditions that commonly occur on the skin of the face, and that these may be of little or great consequence to our patients. Dentists enjoy an ideal situation for the detection and management or referral of the more worrisome lesions. By paying close attention to the faces of dental patients, asking appropriate questions about the lesions discovered, and following up on the results of advise given to patients, dentists can play an important role as health care advisors concerning dermatologic conditions of the face.
我们可以看到，面部皮肤上经常出现一些病症，这些病症对我们的患者可能影响不大或影响很大。牙医处于检测、处理或转诊更令人担忧的病变的理想位置。通过密切关注牙科患者的面部，就发现的病变提出恰当的问题，并跟进给予患者的建议的结果，牙医可以在作为面部皮肤病的医疗保健顾问方面发挥重要作用。
