Our clinic: who are we?

Clinique MFML provides specialized surgical services and is overseen by two surgeons. Oral and maxillofacial surgery is a dentistry discipline. Here is a quick overview of a maxillofacial surgeon’s career path.

After completing his Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD), the dentist, in most cases, to become a specialist, must complete at least one year of multidisciplinary residency in a university centre before starting their postdoctoral specialty studies in oral and maxillofacial surgery. This training is often combined with a master’s degree in science. This can take from 4 to 6 years, depending on the academic environment and the training received. If desired, the surgeon may undertake a fellowship after their specialization; that is, a sub-specialization in a particular area of ​​the specialty.

Specialization in oral and maxillofacial surgery is a multidisciplinary training that takes place in hospitals. Numerous medical and surgical courses and internships are offered throughout this training: from general surgery to neurosurgery, to anesthesiology, intensive care and emergency medicine. This state-of-the-art training leads to the development of unparalleled surgical and medical expertise, enabling our surgeons to acquire the necessary tools and experience to offer a complete range of services from intravenous sedation to the treatment of medically compromised patients or traumatology.
