The department has its own Maxillofacial Prosthetics Team, 3D printer and CBCT, and access to nasoendoscopes along with a minor procedure room for IV Sedation. Clinics are run by our team of Registered Nurses and Dental Assistants.
- In addition to oncology surgery, there is a varied acute work load (e.g. odontogenic infections, facial trauma), along with elective operating which includes dentoalveolar, orthognathics, complex benign pathology, and TMJ surgery. Waikato is a leading training centre in OMS, accredited by the Royal Australasian College of Dental Surgeons. You will have the opportunity to participate in training. There is a wellstructured weekly departmental teaching programme and opportunities to engage with CME are supported with a generous allowance.
- This is an opportunity for the right person to enjoy the challenge General and Oncology/Reconstructive OMS work, in a desirable location. Hamilton is centrally based to allow easy access to the great outdoors with beaches, bush and mountains all within easy driving distance, shows and concerts, sports, shopping, wining and dining.
Required skills & experience:
- This is a challenging role, which demands outstanding professional skills and commitment to the specialty. We are looking for someone with the vision to provide a teambased service founded on excellence in all aspects of the Maxillofacial service and complement the workload of the colleagues with ideas to develop the specialty and the department.
- You will hold or be eligible for registration as a specialist OMS surgeon with the Medical Council and Dental Council of New Zealand.
