John S. Vorrasi, DDS
OMFS Chair
The Advanced Educational Program in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery is a 48 month (4 year) certificate postdoctoral program, accredited by the Commission on Dental Accreditation of the American Dental Association. An M.S. degree and an Executive Master in Business Administration (EMBA) degree are also offered, which can be combined with the OMFS Certificate program.
The program has trained maxillofacial surgeons who practice the full scope of the specialty complex dentoalveolar surgery, implant and pre-prosthetic surgery, corrective jaw surgery, TMJ surgery, management of benign pathologic conditions of the maxillofacial skeleton and maxillofacial trauma.
Through interdepartmental collaborations with key surgical departments within URMC, the OMFS resident is educated in managing patients with craniofacial deformities as well as facial esthetic needs.
Our focus is to incorporate state-of-the art surgical training with an unparalleled education in patient evaluation and management.
