Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons of India

What Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons of India does

The Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons of India (AOMSI) is a non-profit professional membership association founded in 1969 (originally as AOSI, renamed AOMSI in 1985) that represents oral and maxillofacial surgeons across India. It serves approximately 11,000+ active members across 23 state chapters, providing professional recognition, continuous medical education, board certification via the Indian Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (IBOMS), research grants, fellowship programs, and welfare schemes including the Social Security Relief Fund (SSRF), Suraksha Scheme, and Professional Indemnity Scheme. AOMSI is governed by elected office bearers with no external shareholders and is funded through one-time membership joining contributions (Rs. 10,000-Rs. 20,000 age-tiered), conference fees, fellowship tuition, and journal-related income.

The association's core technological platform consists of a digital ecosystem integrating membership management, online conference registration, a webinar hosting platform (Anveshana), a research grant management system, a member-maintained surgical log, and a dedicated IBOMS examination portal. Content products include the Springer-published peer-reviewed Journal of Maxillofacial and Oral Surgery (JMOS, quarterly), an educational YouTube channel (INFOAOMSI), and the multi-season AOMSI Web Series featuring international faculty. Educational offerings span Foundation MaxFac (foundation courses), Master Class, fellowship courses, journal clubs, postgraduate orientation, and travel fellowships.

AOMSI's go-to-market is built on a hybrid in-person and digital model: 23 state chapters deliver localized engagement, two flagship conferences (annual in November/December and MIDCOMS midterm in June/July) plus 100+ smaller events per year drive member activation, and digital channels (website portal, e-newsletters, social media on Facebook and Instagram, webinars) carry continuous education. International linkages include formal affiliations with the International Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (IAOMS) since 1977 and the Asian Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (Asian AOMS), conferring members access to discounted international conference rates and fellowships. Public-facing work includes the Sanjeevani OMFS Program and awareness campaigns on oral cancer, road safety, cleft, and TMJ disorders.

Broad incumbents

• American Dental Association (ADA): The leading US dental professional association. Comparable to AOMSI's role for OMFS but broader across all dental specialties, with established membership, journal, and certification programs.
• Indian Medical Association (IMA): The largest association of medical professionals in India. Although focused on allopathic physicians, IMA represents the broader Indian medical association model from which AOMSI's structure and advocacy patterns are derived.
• Indian Dental Association (IDA): The largest national professional body for dental professionals in India. While broader in scope than AOMSI, IDA overlaps significantly on membership, advocacy, conferences, and continuing dental education in India.

Direct peers

• International Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (IAOMS): The international OMFS body to which AOMSI has been affiliated since 1977, providing global fellowship pathways, conferences, and standards that AOMSI extends to Indian members.
• British Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (BAOMS): The UK national specialty association for OMFS, operating a comparable model of membership, training standards, scientific meetings, and professional representation in a single national market.
• American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS): The US national professional association for oral and maxillofacial surgeons, providing the closest international functional analogue to AOMSI with similar specialty membership, board certification, journal, and annual meeting programs.
• Asian Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (Asian AOMS): Regional Asian OMFS body in active collaboration with AOMSI, offering member access to regional conferences, fellowships, and professional exchanges at discounted rates.

Emerging players

• Indian Orthodontic Society: A specialty dental society in India representing orthodontists, sharing the same professional association operating model as AOMSI for a different dental sub-specialty.

Others

• Royal College of Surgeons of England: A UK-based professional body offering surgical fellowship, examination, and continuing education programs. Relevant analogue for the training, examination, and certification function AOMSI delivers via IBOMS.
• Association of Plastic Surgeons of India (APSI): The national specialty association for plastic surgeons in India, representing an adjacent surgical specialty that overlaps with OMFS in facial trauma, aesthetics, and reconstructive procedures — a key competitive boundary for AOMSI.
