    Author: Edwards RC, Foley WL.
    Journal: J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 1993 May; 51(5):559-63; discussion 563-4. PubMed ID: 8478763.
    Abstract:
    This article reports the results of a survey of oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMS) residency program directors regarding teaching of expanded scope surgical procedures during the academic year 1990 to 1991. Data is provided for the nation as a whole, as well as grouped by geographic regions and type of residency program. Significant differences were found for some procedures based on both geographic region and program type. The majority of program directors responding to this survey disagreed with the trend toward expanding the scope of OMS into cosmetic procedures. Directors of integrated dual degree programs believed that the trend toward expanding the scope of OMS was positive; 2:1 over directors of MD optional or traditional OMS programs.
