Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
The curriculum lumps max-fax together with ENT surgery and airway anaesthesia.
There appears to be an examiner predilection for the latter two, with only one OMFS question appearing in recent memory; a question on bimaxillary osteotomy in the March 2018 SAQ.
As an overview, the OMFS - specific topics mentioned in the curriculum include:
- Dental surgery (very briefly)
- Facial fractures
- Free flap surgery
- OMFS infections
- Orthognathic surgery
- Throat packs
