It is quite difficult to do OMFS in the army vs civillian residencies.
Do you mean that the residency is more difficult to get into or that the residency is more difficult? I am more concerned about how difficult the residency will be on me and my family in the army. I am not too worried about getting into the residency. If I don't get accepted, then the choice is made for me. If I get accepted, then I have to decide if the impact on my family from the residency and the Army oral surgeon lifestyle is worth it for me to do what I really want to do.
I have already heard that since oral surgeons are in high demand right now in the army that they are worked to the bone after they get out of residency. I was wondering how the residency is. What is the workload? Do they emphasize trauma, extracting thirds, plastics, orthognathics, or is it pretty balanced. Is there PT instead of rounds on certain days?
