An Introduction to Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Book Hero Magic crafted this summary to help describe this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Summary
An Introduction to Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery provides a comprehensive overview of this specialised surgical field, covering essential core competencies for undergraduate students and early specialist trainees. The second edition enhances its scope by incorporating international perspectives, recognising the varied pathways and qualifications in the UK, Germany, and North America. Structured to accommodate these differing training approaches, the book unites them within specialist surgical sections, making it a valuable and authoritative guide.

Each chapter concludes with references and suggestions for further reading, aligning closely with the UK's Intercollegiate Surgical Curriculum, thus serving both as an educational resource and a definitive reference for trainees and professionals.

Highly Commended, BMA Medical Book Awards 2015

An Introduction to Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery encompasses the full range of oral and maxillofacial surgery. It also addresses the necessary core competencies for undergraduates and those pursuing basic specialist training.

The second edition now includes international perspectives. In the UK, oral and maxillofacial surgery is a unique disciplineβ€”the ninth of ten currently recognised surgical specialtiesβ€”and trainees usually start from a dental qualification before gaining a medical one. In contrast, in Germany practitioners often start from a medical base and then obtain a dental degree while in North America they start from a dental base and may or may not become dually qualified.

The book’s initial chapters cater to all approaches of initial training and crucially bring them together in the specialist surgical sections. In chapters where the UK, US, and German perspectives are distinctly different, a section at the end has been added offering a specific perspective. However, where there is general consensus, the international views have been integrated into the main body of text.

At the end of each chapter, where appropriate, readers will find relevant references and recommendations for further reading. This book can also be considered a definitive and consistently reliable source of information for those following the UK’s Intercollegiate Surgical Curriculum.
