摘要
Five billion people worldwide do not have access to safe, affordable surgical and anesthesia care. The burden of inadequate access to safe and affordable surgical care falls heaviest on individuals living in low-income and middle-income countries (LMIC), where 9 out of 10 people do not have access to basic surgical care. Global oral and maxillofacial surgical care is included in the global burden of surgical disease, and increased awareness of the need for global oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMS), with the initiation, support, and funding of research on the need to develop a global OMS capacity-building strategy is imperative.
