Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
Oral and maxillofacial surgery is concerned with the diagnosis, surgery, and treatment of defects, injuries, and diseases primarily affecting the hard and soft oral tissues, head, neck, face, and maxillofacial region. Dental replacements, jaw, oral, and facial tumour diagnosis and removal, jaw and facial bone alignment, jaw reconstruction, and other functions may be performed by an oral and maxillofacial doctor. Oral and maxillofacial radiologists are pioneers in a constantly evolving field of practise because technology in the field of radiology changes so quickly. Students considering dental school should look into this exciting and rapidly growing specialty.
