Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinic

OMFS clinic

The Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (OMFS) Clinic is accepting new patients.

At the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (OMFS) Clinic your care is provided by dental students or highly skilled residents and is always overseen by faculty specialists, who are all leaders in the field. Your participation in this invaluable learning process means that appointments may take longer, but we are able to offer exceptional services at significantly lower rates than private practices.

Appointments

If you are a patient seeking care in our teaching clinic, please call 617-636-6516 to schedule an appointment. All patients require an initial consultation and X-rays if needed.

Insurance

OMFS procedures are often complicated and may be billed through dental and/or medical insurance. Please call us to verify your insurance. All additional billing and insurance questions will be answered after the initial consultation. The OMFS Teaching Clinic accepts the following dental insurances: Delta Dental, MassHealth, Blue Cross Blue Shield and Cigna, but it does not accept medical insurance. 

If your case requires medical insurance, consider an OMFS Faculty Provider and call 617-636-6515.
