Abstract

Outcome assessments are becoming a standard by which predoctoral and postdoctoral advanced dental educational programs are being evaluated internally and externally. This article presents an overview of the process of development of an outcome assessment document for oral and maxillofacial surgery residency programs and provides an example of its value in the evaluation of two different types of oral and maxillofacial surgery programs.
