Question to those OMS residents and OMS's in the Military.
What kind of stuff can you do as an OMS in the military? In the Army, to be more specific. My goal is to become an OMS, and I'm especially interested in reconstructive and tumor surgery. I want to get into a residency spot where I'll have a lot of exposure to such procedures, and I'm trying to figure out if Army (or military) is the right path for me.
Even with the four year military OMS residency program (as opposed to the 6 year dual degree programs), do you do a lot of reconstructive, tumor, and trauma surgeries? Or are you just mostly limited to doing extractions and implants?
