EXTERNSHIP PROGRAM

Our Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery offers a 1-month externship rotation at the LAC+USC Medical Center for 3rd and 4th year dental students who are interested in pursuing a career in oral and maxillofacial surgery. Externs will be involved intimately in the daily functioning of the service at our Level I trauma center. They will have the opportunity to experience part of our residency program by working in the outpatient clinic, participating in operating room surgeries, and attending our clinical pathology conferences, craniofacial deformity conferences, grand rounds lectures and journal club meetings.

Application and inquiry about the availability to this externship program can be obtained by contacting Ms. Debra Otis at 323-2265051.
