There have been many developments and improvements in the OMS dental surgery specialty. The field now encompasses new technological and scientific accomplishments that have transformed the specialty. These developments have helped maximize successful outcomes and make treatment easy and efficient. New technology has also enabled OMS surgeons to gain expertise and expand easily into other surgical specialties like aesthetic treatment. Technology and science have continued to reinvent and recreate the field and have kept pace to create a flourishing future.

Recent trends in oms

The new innovative approach of bone grafting from demineralized teeth material has been used to guide autogenous growth and encourage/provide a scaffold for successful bone regeneration. Previous approaches to bone grafting presented some challenges like allergic reactions and incompatibility. The field has also grown extensively in tissue and cell engineering by combining stimulatory factors to create tissue during surgical procedures. The development of the TT SRL has enabled this. This innovative device processes extracted teeth into bone graft material within a short period.

3Dprinting has also been developed in medicine to aid in bioprinting cells, tissues, and organs and creating custom-fit prostheses and anatomical copies to aid in highly complicated operations, such as pathology and trauma treatment. 3D technology has also been extensively used in imaging during examinations and includes MRI and CT scanning.

AI aided surgery has gained ground recently and has great accuracy, safety, and easiness. Computer-assisted navigation in surgery is an intraoperative procedure that monitors the surgery according to the surgery plans of the surgeon and is being widely used in osteotomy and tumor surgery and other areas where surgical approaches are difficult and risky.

Advancements in endoscopic surgery have enabled less invasive OMS procedures with fewer post-op complications. New advances are also visible in diagnosing and managing maxilla and facial cancers through devices like the PET (Positron Emission Tomography) to detect and diagnose problematic tissues and metastases in lymph nodes. OMS is an integral discipline encompassing aspects of science, medical techniques, and cosmetics, borrowed, adapted, and modified to aid in the cause.
