List some of the various examples of OMS treatments:

What are some reasons for an OMS to remove teeth?
A) malposed/impacted teeth
B) non salvageable teeth
What are some of the reasons an OMS may perform reconstructive surgery?
A) restoring form and function from aluvsive traumatic events, removal of pathology
& physiologic atrophy
B) restoration of continuity
C) Restoration of alveolar bone height and width
D) Restoration of osseous bulk
Give examples of some events that may cause an OMS to have to perform reconstructive surgery to restore form & function:
I) Avulsive traumatic events
II) Removal of pathology
III) Physiologic atrophy
