AO CMF’s new orthognathic surgery curriculum—tailored to regional needs—debuts 

Looking to the future

There’s good news for surgeons who were unable to take part in the curriculum’s debut at the AO Davos Courses 2024: Global rollout will continue in Europe in 2025 and worldwide in 2026.

With the new curriculum, AO CMF underscores its leadership as a multispecialty group of surgeons working together to improve patient care through education and research and development opportunities for surgeons.

“In the future, there will be much more technology available to surgeons, including various means of data acquisition—photography, scanning, computed tomography (CT)—and a lot more use of 3D printing in different materials, with much more customized patients solutions in orthognathic surgery,” Fusetti predicted.

Already in the AO CMF pipeline is a new curriculum focused on facial gender affirmation surgery.

“Orthognathic surgery will be quite a significant part of this new curriculum,” Fusetti said.
