Why Choose a Board-Certified Oral Surgeon?
What Is a Board-Certified Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon?
A board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon has completed extensive specialty training and passed rigorous written and oral examinations administered by the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (ABOMS). This distinction signifies advanced knowledge in areas such as dental implants, facial trauma, anesthesia, and corrective jaw surgery. Certification must be maintained through ongoing education and periodic re-examination — ensuring the surgeon remains current with the latest surgical standards and technologies.
