A study reviews 232 randomized controlled trials in oral and maxillofacial surgery, categorizing them into eight areas such as general medicine, outpatient anaesthesia and facial trauma. Key findings, summarized in tables, reveal most studies were single-centre with a median sample size of 46 and many had a moderate (66%) to high (28%) risk of bias. The discussion provides recommendations for future studies, including larger sample sizes, multicentre collaboration, detailed methodology and consideration of clinical equipoise and alternative study designs for complex outcomes.

Now Live - @3PlasticSurgeryPodcast - S05E88 The Wild West of Cosmetic Surgery This episode of 'Three Plastic Surgeons and a Fourth' features a discussion among plastic surgeon hosts Dr. Salvatore Pacella @sandiegoplasticsurgeon, Dr. Lawrence Tong @yorkvilleplasticsurgery, and Dr. Sam Rhee @bergencosmetic about the dangers of unregulated cosmetic surgery practices. The conversation is sparked by a tragic incident reported by the LA Times involving a pediatrician performing liposuction, which led to a patient's death. The doctors emphasize the importance of board certification and proper training in ensuring patient safety, critiquing the 'Wild West' of cosmetic surgery where professionals outside of plastic surgery venture into aesthetic procedures for profitability. The episode sheds light on the significant differences between board-certified plastic surgeons and those who label themselves as cosmetic surgeons without adequate training or accreditation, urging patients to thoroughly vet their surgeons' qualifications. The episode critically examines regulatory failures, the commercial allure driving non-specialists to perform cosmetic procedures, and suggests ways for patients to ensure they're choosing qualified surgeons.

"I don't know how someone can finish a residency and go right out and practice cosmetic surgery." - ABCS Diplomate Dr. Alton Ingram of Ingram Cosmetic Surgery Residency is critical for anyone who wants to perform surgery... but, cosmetic surgery requires additional skillsets that aren't included in residency training. Not only are there many nuances in the ever-growing field of cosmetic surgery, but it is also important that surgeons develop their artistic eye and learn how to recover patients in such a way that they maintain their health & safety and see beautiful, natural-looking results afterward. Our board certified cosmetic surgeons often opt for additional fellowship training in cosmetic surgery through the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery. This year-long training opportunity puts residency-trained surgeons through additional experience & education in cosmetic surgery specifically at an established cosmetic surgery practice. What questions do you have about cosmetic surgery fellowship training? #CosmeticSurgery #CosmeticSurgeon #BoardCertifiedCosmeticSurgeons #FunFactFriday #SafeCosmeticSurgeons #CosmeticSurgeryBoardCertification #CosmeticSurgeryCareer #CosmeticSurgeryTraining

Oral surgery and maxillofacial surgery overlap, but they’re not the same. Oral surgery treats conditions that affect your teeth, gums and any other part of your mouth. Common procedures include tooth extractions, dental implants and gum grafting. Oral surgeons usually do treatments in a clinical setting (like an outpatient surgery center). Or they might do the procedure in a hospital if you need general anesthesia. Maxillofacial surgery treats conditions that affect your face, mouth, jaws and neck. Common procedures include jaw surgery and cleft lip and palate repair.

🦷😰 Understanding Anxiety in Oral Surgery Patients 😰🦷 A recent review highlights key factors contributing to patients' anxiety before and after minor oral surgery. Anxiety significantly decreases post-surgery, but specific concerns like jaw fatigue and fluid collection are more anxiety-inducing than pain. The study also found that preoperative anxiety is often linked to past dental experiences, while postoperative anxiety is associated with challenges like swelling and eating difficulties. 🔗 Read more on the full article! - https://ow.ly/1o3W50SZ0j8 #Dentistry33 #DentalCare #PatientSafety #OralSurgery #OralHealth

My Approach to Minimizing Scarring in Plastic Surgery One of the most common concerns among patients considering plastic surgery is the potential for scarring. Understandably, people want results that are beautiful yet discreet. This is why my approach to surgery always focuses on precision and techniques that minimize visible scarring while promoting optimal healing. Minimizing scars begins with a meticulous surgical plan. I carefully select incision points and use fine suturing techniques that align with natural skin folds, resulting in scars that are barely noticeable. Beyond surgical methods, post-operative care is critical. I work closely with each patient to provide personalized aftercare instructions, including scar management strategies that support the healing process. Additionally, I utilize CO2 laser resurfacing post-surgical procedures, which significantly helps minimize scars. This advanced technology improves skin texture and reduces the visibility of scars, ensuring that the final outcome is as smooth and natural-looking as possible. At Tara Healthcare, we aim for results that not only meet aesthetic goals but also allow patients to feel fully confident in their transformation. Scars should never overshadow the outcome, and I’m committed to achieving results that reflect my dedication to precision and patient satisfaction. Tara Healthcare
