Assessing the Therapeutic Effects of Novel Antibacterial Eggshell-Iron Nanoparticle-Derived Bone Grafts and Allografts in Implanted Sockets: A Preliminary Prospective Clinical Study
ConclusionIn conclusion, the eggshell-derived FeNp bone graft substitute demonstrated improved socket healing compared to commercially available bone grafts. Due to its origin from eggshell and  negligible risk of disease transmission, the eggshell-derived bone graft provides a safe alternative to allografts. Moreover, the eggshell-FeNp graft substitute offers advantages such as low cost and high quality. However, further research is necessary to evaluate the efficacy of these grafts in larger patient populations. (Source: Journal of Maxillofacial and Oral Surgery)

Preference Signaling in Residency Applications: Does It Make Sense for Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery?
For medical school graduates, the opportunity cost of going unmatched following residency applications has resulted in what many call an epidemic of application fever. According to data from the Association of American Medical Colleges, the average number of applications submitted per applicant through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) among United States citizens was approximately 78.2 in 2022, nearly double the amount recorded a decade ago.1 This trend is amplified for surgical subspecialties, such as orthopedic surgery, urology, otolaryngology, neurological surgery, and obstetrics and gynecology, which...

The Triple Threat: The Quintessential Goal of Faculty Development
Faculty positions in oral and maxillofacial surgery are not highly sought-after professional opportunities, despite being amply available to clinicians completing their training. Of the 257 United States oral and maxillofacial surgery residency graduates in 2022, only 8 (3.1%) entered academic practice (Mary Allaire, personal communication, January 3, 2024). Factors dissuading talented surgeons from entering academic practice include financial pressures associated with significant educational debt, thereby leading many auspicious individuals to enter financially rewarding and exclusively private practice settings in our sp...

Are Poor Outcomes Always a Surgeon's Complication?
Many lectures I hear on the regional and national level focus on complications, failures, and risk factors in oral and maxillofacial surgery. However, as I look at my own cases and the presented cases, there is sometimes, and often, an underlying cause. Poor host responses, such as systemic medical conditions, local disease or inflammation, or unhealthy habits, can all contribute to increased complication rates. For example, it is well documented that diabetics have increased wound infections, dehiscence, and scarring, and coupled with obesity, the risk for postoperative infections is further increased.
