There remains limited formal teaching and placements in oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS) in medical schools. OMFS incorporates surgical techniques and attends to conditions that overlap with specialties such as plastic, and ear, nose, and throat (ENT) surgery. With an aim to introduce medical undergraduates to OMFS and promote links to clinical OMFS departments, we hereby report the successful organisation and impact of a locally-arranged, undergraduate, dual-specialty conference.
