Future of Oral Medicine and Radiology specialist in India

An oral medicine doctor is trained to diagnose and manage patients with disorders of the orofacial region, essentially as a "physician of the mouth." An oral medicine doctor has received additional specialized training and experience in the diagnosis and management of oral mucosal abnormalities (growths, ulcers, infection, allergies, immune-mediated and autoimmune disorders, cancers), salivary gland disorders, temporomandibular disorders (e.g.: problems with the TMJ) and facial pain (due to musculoskeletal or neurologic conditions), taste and smell disorders; and recognition of the oral manifestations of systemic and infectious diseases. The life of an oral medicine and radiology specialist is till date not considered an utmost branch. In the scenario when it is the upcoming sector of dentistry, the future prospects of this speciality is the hot topic of discussion.
