WHAT IS
OMFS
or
OMS?
WHY CHOOSE AN OMFS?
The specialty of oral and maxillofacial surgery is unique in requiring a dual qualification in medicine and dentistry, followed by a full-time comprehensive general and specialist surgical training, and is a recognized international surgical specialty, which within Philippines, Asia, Oceania, Latin America, and North America are defined under dental directives while in other continent such as Europe under medical directives. Most surgeons acquire a degree in dentistry before training in medicine, but it is becoming increasingly common for those acquiring a medical degree to subsequently undertake a dental qualification and then pursue a career in OMFS.
Often seen as the bridge between medicine and dentistry, oral and maxillofacial surgery is the one of the eleven core surgical specialties concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of diseases affecting the mouth, jaws, face and neck.
Oral and maxillofacial surgery is involved in all aspects of the diagnosis and surgical care of the mouth, jaws, skull, face, head and neck, as well as associated structures and their reconstruction with its scope as extensive and includes the diagnosis and management of facial injuries, head and neck cancers, salivary gland diseases, facial disproportion, facial pain, impacted teeth, cysts and tumours of the jaws as well as numerous problems affecting the oral mucosa such as mouth ulcers and infections
