AO CMF NA Course— The Comprehensive Management of Mandible Fractures (with human anatomical specimens)
Date: October 18 - 20, 2024 

Evaluating and treating mandibular fractures, especially condyle injuries, can be extremely challenging, even for experienced surgeons. Complex mandibular anatomy, technical challenges with surgical access, dental occlusion and incomplete evidence-based guidance result in mandible fracture management being one of the most difficult areas of facial trauma. This 2.5-day course is intended to address each of these challenging factors through an immersive and hands-on learning program taught by experts that represent all the CMF specialties (oral and maxillofacial surgery, otolaryngology, plastic, and reconstructive surgery, and oculoplastics).  Importantly, this course features a low participant to faculty ratio of 3:1.
