What we do
“AO CMF is a safety network where you can count on your colleagues, ask for advice and make great friendships."
In our efforts to fulfill our vision to improve patient care, we concentrate on three special focus areas:
- Offer access to a dynamic global network of experts who share a strong interest in CMF trauma and reconstruction.
- Support younger surgeons to pursue fulfilling careers and becoming a leader within the AO CMF community.
- Improve patient care standards with valuable education and network throughout a surgeon’s career.
Our purpose is promoting excellence in patient care and outcomes in craniomaxillofacial surgery across all specialties.
