Your membership and participation strengthen the foundational principles and surgical scope for which we all stand.

You bring new ideas, vision, and leadership to broaden the scope of our organization and its commitment to the Specialty.

We must stand together to retain the scope of our practice and resist intrusions by others less trained to perform Maxillofacial Surgery.

We must do it together, and we need your active support, clinical contributions, and enduring participation.
