The modern training pathway for junior surgeons prior to specialty training encourages rotation through a variety of specialties with the aim of creating a well-rounded surgeon. While the syllabus of the intercollegiate Membership of the Royal College of Surgeons aims to prepare individuals broadly for the major surgical specialties, oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS) represents an additional challenge for singly qualified trainees (either doctors or dentists) working as junior trainees (eg F2 trainees, dental F2 trainees, core trainees, senior house officers/trust grade surgeons) in a specialty that ultimately requires dual qualification in medicine and dentistry.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
