Hello Everyone!
I am currently a pre-dental undergraduate student. I have been pretty interested in the specialty recently (facial trauma, oncology, and cleft lip/palate) and thought I would come on here and ask around before I plan on shadowing a oral surgeon in my area. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with being an oral surgeon in any branch, or knows someone who is, and can share some of their experiences with me.
I've always wanted to serve and plan on applying for HPSP next cycle when I apply so I was wondering what are the daily duties of an oral surgeon in the military? Time in hospital or pulling molars? and I'm also curious about deployments(day to day duties and cases like trauma)? I know its very early to think of specializing but any knowledge would help. Thanks in advance!
