Training in oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS) involves considerable personal expense, a long period of training and the need for two degrees. Other costs have also increased, with little change in pay and poor access to funding. After a Freedom of Information request and having reviewed available data, we have established the cost of training in OMFS. There is considerable regional variation in access to funding, with escalating fees for conferences and courses. Recent changes have failed to address these.
口腔颌面外科（OMFS）培训涉及高昂的个人费用、漫长的培训期以及需要获得两个学位。其他成本也在增加，而薪资变化不大，且获得资金的渠道有限。在提交信息公开申请并审查了现有数据后，我们确定了口腔颌面外科培训的成本。在获得资金方面存在显著的地区差异，会议和课程费用不断上涨。最近的变化未能解决这些问题。
