European Association for Cranio Maxillo Facial Surgery (EACMFS)

EACMFS was established in 1970 by a group of innovative European surgeons who were keen to advance the specialty. It has become the most prominent and highly respected professional group for the specialty in Europe and has a high profile in other parts of the World. The objectives of the Association are to promote cranio-maxillo-facial surgery in theory and practice and attempt to establish uniform training requirements for the specialty in Europe and encourage these worldwide. The main aim was to endeavor to ensure that specialist training in oral and maxillofacial surgery was based on a solid foundation of dual medical and dental qualifications and core training in surgery.
