About Us
The Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery (OMS) Group is dedicated to advancing patient clinical care through dissemination and support of compelling research advancing the field of oral and maxillofacial surgery in a manner consistent with IADR’s goals. The Group encompasses and includes researchers, residents and students from all over the world with a wide variety of research interests. From a global or international perspective, OMS research needs to be “at the table” with other surgical and health disciplines engaged in addressing global problems where our knowledge and skills are relevant or unique. This Group is particularly interested in and recognized for its contributions in the areas of head and neck cancer, medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ), orofacial regeneration, obstructive sleep apnea, advances in maxillofacial imaging, dental implants, bone physiology, wound healing, distraction osteogenesis, orofacial pain, and temporomandibular joint disorders.
