The program is fully accredited by the Canadian Dental Association Accreditation Committee. It is a six-year program and commences on July 1 of each year.

It is the intent of the program to develop both well-trained, practising oral and maxillofacial surgeons, and surgeons who pursue academic careers and research. All residents will also complete an M.D.,C.M. degree through the McGill School of Medicine. For the full M.D.,C.M. curriculum please refer to
