Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology

Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology is a specialized branch of dentistry and pathology focused on diagnosing and studying diseases affecting the oral cavity, jaws, and associated structures, including the salivary glands, temporomandibular joints, facial muscles, and perioral skin. Often referred to as head and neck pathology, this discipline plays a vital role in identifying and understanding the epidemiology and etiology of various oral diseases. It involves microscopic examination of biopsy specimens, diagnosis and management of oral cancers, congenital and acquired lesions, pediatric oral pathologies, and surgical reconstruction of maxillofacial defects. The field collaborates closely with oral and maxillofacial surgery and oncology. In the United States alone, over 36 professional associations and societies support this specialty, with approximately 18,000 pathologists and 90 academic institutions contributing to its advancement. Additionally, more than 1,400 hospitals across the country integrate oral and maxillofacial pathology into patient care and research, emphasizing its critical role in modern healthcare.
