Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Residency

Part of the Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery

The Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery residency is a six-year medical degree certificate program with openings for three positions per year. We occasionally offer a 4 year track certificate-only option to fulfill the programs needs.

There is an excellent balance between inpatient admissions and outpatient visits encompassing dentoalveolar and implant surgery, maxillofacial trauma, pathology, orthognathic, preprosthetic, temporomandibular joint and reconstructive surgery.

There are approximately 10,000 outpatient procedures performed annually in the oral surgery clinic and 450 hospital admissions.
