This course is a continuation of DENT 463 and covers more advanced topics in oral surgery. Topics discussed include orofacial infections, major maxillofacial surgery (i.e., cleft palate surgery, preprosthetic surgery, orthognathic surgery, maxillofacial traumatology, etc.), and the surgical management of head and neck cancers. Students are given more opportunity to develop expertise in minor oral surgery in a clinical setting. A portion of this course focuses on the prevention, recognition and management of medical emergencies in the dental office. Common medical emergencies that could be encountered and the agent(s) used to treat them are discussed. Clinical experience continues with more advanced patient management in order to develop competence in routine minor oral surgery.
