    I am an Australian born and bred. An Australian dental graduate who then completed a single degree OMS training program in the US. I am a registered Oral and Maxillofacial surgeon in the states. If I were to return to Australia (possibly in the future) I will be registered as an Oral Surgeon...

    Noted. I agree. I have not made this a personal attack on anyone. I'm simply pointing out that a re-published opinion piece in the ADJ by someone who has a political agenda is not "evidence" of anything (other than that some OMSs feel threatened by the training and registration of single...

    Funny you say that. It was an OMS who published (I should say re-published) the history of the people involved in a public forum (ADJ) and also at the same time slandered the University of Sydney. Once you do that I feel its only fair to expect some further public discussion. I actually...

    Likely?.. You mean Definitely. Nothing healthy about the view of OS from Australian OMS. Slandering OS colleagues, attempting to block them from appointments in hospitals. This is not "healthy competition". Its just bad (unprofessional) behaviour, and its rife among Australian OMSs...

    Thank you Wilson91 for your information. We all know what it takes to become an OMS in Australia. And good on you and others for doing it! However, That article is nothing more than 1: a regurgitation copy/paste of a book published by the RACDS in 2015. (See link: Extractions to...

    In the states... you have a few options. You can either do a CODA (dental board accredited) approved fellowship in facial cosmetic procedures (there are 3-4 of these in the country) Or you can apply through the aafprs : Login | AAFPRS. Or you can apply to one overseas and just develop a...

    In the States and Australia cosmetic work isn't really a requirement for graduation from OMS. Some programs may offer exposure to some. But that's about it. https://racds.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/OMSHandbook.pdf As far as I understand in Australia, there are no clinical requirements of...

    There are no turf issues between oral surgeons with med degrees (dual degree) or those without med degrees (single degree) in the States or Canada (or for that matter pretty much anywhere else in the world). In my experience this seems to be mainly an Australian issue. And in saying that its...

    The US and Canadian 4 year OMS programs are great all rounders and don't require med and would also allow you to work in the states after or return to work in Aus/NZ as OS. If you know you want to practice general OMS scope in Au/NZ (Wisdom teeth, benign path, some trauma...

    depends on the program. As a general rule of thumb.. less than in Australia. Most US programs pay residents 40-80k per year. They also work you harder. Most US OMS programs have longer hours and more on call work with more trauma. To qualify for the resident salary (at MOST / not all...

    Sounds like more petty behaviour from the MaxFax crowd. I'm not surprised (if that's true). As I said, If you want to join their club you gotta tick all their boxes and play by their rules. However, there is not a huge difference between OMS/OS in the real world of day to day practice in...

    I still have family in Aus. Its home. Will return at some stage (probably in a year or two). I don't think Aus OS / US OMS registration makes much of a difference in terms of my practice. I can still practice the full scope I was trained in the US once I return to Aus ... makes no...

    varies. Depends on the program. Most have seperate rules for internationals. Even for US citizens. Most get paid, however, some charge tuition. lots of variability from place to place
