About Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
More recently working in multidisciplinary teams, maxillofacial surgeons in the UK have subspecialised and usually have an area special interest in either the management of facial deformity, head and neck cancer, temporomandibular joint issues or facial trauma. The common issues like the management of impacted teeth are managed by most maxillofacial surgeons and oral surgeons.
