Here, 치과 most naturally means the dentist or the dental clinic/dentist’s office.
In Korean, 치과 can refer to:
- the field of dentistry
- a dental department
- a dentist’s office / dental clinic
In 치과 예약 시간, it means the appointment time for the dentist / at the dental clinic.
So the whole phrase is understood as the dentist appointment time or more naturally in English, the time of the dental appointment.
Because 치과 is modifying the noun phrase that follows it.
In Korean, nouns often combine directly like this:
- 치과 예약 = dental appointment / dentist appointment
- 예약 시간 = appointment time
- 치과 예약 시간 = dental appointment time
So 치과 is not acting as a separate subject or object here. It is just part of a longer noun phrase.
This is very common in Korean:
- 학교 숙제 = school homework
- 버스 시간 = bus time / bus schedule time
- 병원 예약 = hospital appointment
