The specialist cadre of the Royal Army Dental Corps (RADC) came to fruition at the start of World War II, with the speciality of maxillofacial surgery being born during World War I. The cadre has followed developments within the speciality, and building on the experience of forebears, has become capable of not only providing a secondary care service to the RADC but also being competent in the management of complex war injuries.
