Abstract
The evolution of oral and maxillofacial surgery into a specialty was aided by international strife in the first half of the century. Today the scope of OMS practice continues to expand as the result of an educational process that is responsive to the changing needs of the specialty. But understanding and acceptance of the OMS scope of practice lags behind.
