OMFS Internship Opportunities - POST HERE ONLY

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Hey everyone. This post is for those of you who are planning to spend a gap year after dental school before going into OMFS, dental anesthesiology, or even working towards doing sedation in your dental practice someday (privileges are state-dependent)... I want to share an available opportunity and my personal experience with the program.

I am at the tail end of completing a 1-year "fellowship" in anesthesia with Indiana University School of Medicine. There are 1 or 2 positions available each year and they are still looking for applicants, so I want to put the word out. Just to preface, I matched into OMFS this year at my top choice, and I truly believe my unique clinical experience gave me something that stood out. Here's my journey to matching...

I planned to study for my CBSE before applying to OMFS, so I did a 1-year non-cat oral surgery internship. I cannot say enough great things about the year transitioning from dental into OMFS, however, managing time to study CBSE and balance being a solid intern was challenging. I then decided to do the 1-year anesthesia fellowship and continue to study for my CBSE before applying for surgery.

The internship is Monday through Friday for 1 year- the time I finish each day is variable, but usually between 3-5 pm. A huge plus is no call and no weekends. It's paid PGY1 ($57,174.00) and you function as a 1st-year general anesthesia resident. That means that I set up the OR, pre-op my patients, touch base with the anesthesiologist that's going to staff my case about my plan, the staff comes in the OR when I induce and I throw in either an LMA or ETT, staff leaves and I run the case, then I call staff when I'm ready to extubate. I also go to lecture with the 1st year general anesthesia residents, which is once every week. You work the entire year at Eskenazi Hospital. The attendings are awesome in the sense that you can get as much as you truly want out of the program. You learn to transfuse, place IVs, place ART lines, get comfortable with pharmacology, physiology, airway management, and if you want, have the ability to rotate on Acute Pain Service using ultrasound to learn/do regional anesthesia like axillary blocks, spinals, etc. Cases that I most regularly do anesthesia for range from ophthalmology, plastic surgery, ortho, ENT, general surgery, gynecology.

This program allowed me ample time to study for CBSE, and ultimately attain my ultimate goal of matching into OMFS-- all while feeling extremley comfortable with airway management. I've kept a log thus far and have done 300+ MAC sedations (meaning anything not "general anesthesia" from versed/fentanyl/propofol drip etc that doesn't need an LMA or ETT). I've also done over 200 General Anesthesia cases with ~75 of them LMA and ~150 of them ETT. I also help train the paramedic students, medical students, and AA students in the OR that rotate through Eskenazi hospital.

I truly believe this program is a hidden gem.

Feel free to message me, and I'd be willing to answer any more questions about my experience through sdn inbox or even a telephone call if you'd like!

Thank you for this information. Is this the only 1 year program available? It seems like all other programs are strictly 3 year residency programs.

It is a fellowship or rather an internship, not a residency.

One year is the ideal time for anesthesia training for what we do.

I was fortunate to know Dr. Adrian Hubbell, a Mayo Clinic oral surgery alumnus, who was the first oral surgery resident in the USA to do an anesthesia rotation in the late 1930s. He did one full year of medical anesthesia at Mayo.

He went out to Long Beach, California after his training and pioneered outpatient general anesthesia for oral surgery. Using thiopental (a precursor to propofol), he would anesthetize 55 patients a day, 6 days a week. He gave lectures nationwide on his techniques.

He told me that he thought that dentistry’s biggest failure was not continuing its aggressive anesthesia presence over the entire profession.

It is important to remember that anesthesia was a dental invention. It was first practiced by dentists for dental procedures before it was done for medical procedures.

The first public demonstration of an anesthetic was performed by dentist at the Massachusetts general hospital by William T. G. Morton. He administered ether to a patient, and a surgeon removed a tumor from the patient’s neck.

Two weeks before that, he had used ether to anesthetize a patient for an odontectomy.

I know that. I was asking if there are other 1 year fellowship programs available.

The University at Buffalo, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Program is accepting applications for a 1-year Non-categorical internship in the Division of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. There are 3 available positions which will start July 1st, 2021 and finish June 30th, 2022.

Non-categorical intern responsibilities are identical to the responsibilities of the categorical interns aside from any responsibilities to the medical school. Non-categorical and categorical interns are treated exactly the same:

· Coverage of our two main clinics at UB School of Dental Medicine and the Erie County Medical Center, as well as our Craniofacial clinic at Oishei Children’s Hospital

· Rounding on inpatients and managing their care

· Taking primary call

· Instructing and supervising dental students in the predoctoral Oral Surgery clinic at UB School of Dental Medicine

· Involvement in operating room cases at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, Oishei Children’s Hospital, and ECMC

· Involvement in all UB OMFS didactic activities

Scope:

UB OMFS is a truly full-scope OMFS program and you will be exposed to everything an OMFS can do including head and neck oncologic surgery, management of benign pathology, microvascular reconstructive surgery, craniofacial and cleft surgery, orthognathic surgery, management of facial trauma, dentoalveolar surgery, implant surgery, and TMJ surgery. We currently operate at Erie County Medical Center, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, and Oishei Children’s Hospital and there will almost always be an intern involved in each case.



Call:

Call is taken primarily at Erie County Medical Center which is the only level I trauma center in Western New York. Interns will split primary call each month which translates to q4-5 day call with a senior resident as backup. OMFS covers odontogenic/deep neck space infection call 24/7/365 with the GPR residents covering dental trauma and minor infections. Facial trauma call is split evenly with our ENT colleagues. We take facial trauma call every other day.



Didactics:

Didactics are an important part of the program. Conferences are usually held in the morning prior to any clinical responsibilities and include weekly case conferences, weekly literature reviews, monthly OMFS-Orthodontics multidisciplinary conferences, and weekly Grand Round conferences. All residents are required to create presentations for these conferences and present throughout the year.


Salary/Benefits:

The PGY-1 Salary for 2021-2022 is $54,723. Interns also receive excellent health insurance at no additional cost. A full description of the benefits can be found here: Salary and Benefits

Cambridge, OH Private Practice Opportunity in Oral Surgery - 1 year private practice position

Start Date: 7/1/2021

Opportunity for a general dentist interested in pursuing a career in oral maxillofacial surgery. The position is available at Muskingum Valley Oral Surgery with locations in Cambridge, OH and Marietta, OH. Immediate supervisor is Dr. Jeffery Lee, who is a board certified oral surgeon and practice owner.

Dr. Lee is seeking a previous oral surgery applicant with a minimum of two years oral surgery internship experience or GPR experience extracting teeth. Special consideration will be given to those who are eligible to obtain a conscious sedation permit in the state of Ohio. Applicants must be eligible for a full dental license in the state of Ohio.

Opportunity to gain experience in the pace and ins and outs of a private practice oral surgery office while being provided ample time to study and improve CBSE score.

Scope of practice includes routine and complex exodontia, pre-prosthetic procedures, and impacted third molar extractions. Many of the patients you will work with require same day consultation and extraction procedures.

This is a great opportunity for a motivated individual that is interested in learning more about private practice oral surgery while having the time and flexibility to improve their CBSE score and reapply to OMFS residency programs.

Based on my experience it is a great opportunity to improve your dental alveolar skillset and learn from an excellent mentor. I was afforded as much time as I needed to study for the CBSE, which I worked half days for 3-4 weeks leading up to the test. It cannot be underestimated how much your dentoalveolar skillset will improve over the course of your year with Dr. Lee. He takes the time review cases with you should you have questions. There is something to be said about a mentor that has the time and ability to review cases with you allowing you to tap into his ~20 years of experience in the field.

I would not trade my time with Dr. Lee for anything because the experience gave me the tools to become a better person, a better surgeon, and allowed me to match to an oral surgery residency program after failing to match multiple times.

A major perk of the position is that Dr. Lee owns the rental property adjacent to the practice that would be available to live in.

Interested applicants please email your CV to drleestaff1@gmail.com.
 
NEW YORK STATE OMFS INTERNS - DENTAL LICENSING

The New York state board has mandated that all interns must receive a fully credentialed New York State Dental License and that a Limited Permit is no longer acceptable. They are in the beginning stages of checking the legality of all intern positions within the state. This being said, it will leave a substantial void in the licensing process for a NY intern, as most incoming interns will be coming directly from dental school or from another OMFS internship, both of which do not qualify for a New York State Dental License. As it stands, the only applicable way to become licensed for a NY internship is by previous completion of an accredited GPR or 2 years of dental experience outside of the state (endorsement).

I am curious as to how many incoming interns this could affect and what the board plans on doing about this gap in licensure ability. Any information regarding this issue would be a tremendous help. If there is a better forum to place this inquire in please advise.

Started a seperate thread: NEW YORK STATE OMFS INTERNS - DENTAL LICENSING

Directly from the NY Dental License processor and board who state that they do not accept a limited permit for any intern positions (they state that they never have and that those that are currently practicing in that capacity are doing so illegally). However, like stated above, there are no other current license options except a full dental license which most do not qualify for. I am starting this conversation, not to stir anything up, but because it has to effect a multitude of current/future interns as well as the programs they intend to work for and needs to be addressed at the board level to give viable licensing options for this category of student.

How much is the salary? it looks like you're looking for someone to hire not an intern.
 
The Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery department at University of Maryland has a non-categorical internship position available for the 2021-2022 year. We are looking for a motivated OMFS applicant at a busy, operative heavy program. We have 2x6-year categorical and 1x4-year categorical spots at our program. Our noncategorical interns typically match the next year into the program of their choice.
The scope at our program includes head and neck cancer with microvascular reconstruction, orthognathic surgery, trauma surgery, temporomandibular joint surgery, benign pathology, cleft and craniofacial, dentoalveolar/sedations. Categorical and noncategorical interns have the same responsibilities which include covering clinics at both the hospital and dental school, assisting in operating room, day to day in patient management, covering call and OMFS hospital consultations. Our service covers maxillofacial trauma at the world renowned R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center.
Here at Maryland we have tried hard to create a family and team centered environment. We will hopefully be able to provide you with experience and guidance for a smooth transition into residency.

If you have more questions regarding the day to day life of an intern, life in Maryland, questions about residency in general please don't hesitate to contact us.

The University at Buffalo, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Program is accepting applications for a 1-year Non-categorical internship in the Division of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. There is 1 available position which will start July 1st, 2021 and finish June 30th, 2022.

All prospective applicants must be eligible for New York State Dental licensure (completion of a 1-year postgraduate dental residency).


Non-categorical intern responsibilities are identical to the responsibilities of the categorical interns aside from any responsibilities to the medical school. Non-categorical and categorical interns are treated exactly the same:

· Coverage of our two main clinics at UB School of Dental Medicine and the Erie County Medical Center, as well as our Craniofacial clinic at Oishei Children’s Hospital

· Rounding on inpatients and managing their care

· Taking primary call

· Instructing and supervising dental students in the predoctoral Oral Surgery clinic at UB School of Dental Medicine

· Involvement in operating room cases at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, Oishei Children’s Hospital, and ECMC

· Involvement in all UB OMFS didactic activities

Scope:

UB OMFS is a truly full-scope OMFS program and you will be exposed to everything an OMFS can do including head and neck oncologic surgery, management of benign pathology, microvascular reconstructive surgery, craniofacial and cleft surgery, orthognathic surgery, management of facial trauma, dentoalveolar surgery, implant surgery, and TMJ surgery. We currently operate at Erie County Medical Center, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, and Oishei Children’s Hospital and there will almost always be an intern involved in each case.



Call:

Call is taken primarily at Erie County Medical Center which is the only level I trauma center in Western New York. Interns will split primary call each month which translates to q4-5 day call with a senior resident as backup. OMFS covers odontogenic/deep neck space infection call 24/7/365 with the GPR residents covering dental trauma and minor infections. Facial trauma call is split evenly with our ENT colleagues. We take facial trauma call every other day.



Didactics:

Didactics are an important part of the program. Conferences are usually held in the morning prior to any clinical responsibilities and include weekly case conferences, weekly literature reviews, monthly OMFS-Orthodontics multidisciplinary conferences, and weekly Grand Round conferences. All residents are required to create presentations for these conferences and present throughout the year.


Salary/Benefits:

The PGY-1 Salary for 2021-2022 is $54,723. Interns also receive excellent health insurance at no additional cost. A full description of the benefits can be found here: Salary and Benefits
