Abstract: In the 1950s, German-American medical scientist Hermann Becks proposed “Oral Biology”, and 30 years later, this discipline was introduced into China. Through the efforts of colleagues in the field of oral medicine, "Oral Biology" emerged as a course in the oral medicine education and teaching system in the 1990s, and the work on textbook compilation was also put on the agenda. The first unified textbook was published in 2000 by Professor Liu Zheng as the chief editor, by the People's Medical Publishing House. Subsequently, a large number of related textbooks emerged continuously, and the course construction achieved great success. In 2010, the Oral Biomedicine Professional Committee of the Chinese Stomatological Association was established in Beijing, followed by the founding of the academic quarterly “Oral Biomedicine”, which greatly promoted the academic progress of oral biology in China. In the new historical period, oral biology should continuously expand in various levels and fields such as talent training, technological innovation, achievement transformation, and clinical application, thereby opening a new era of academic development.
