The incumbent for this position will work primarily in the disciplines of oral medicine and oral and maxillofacial pathology at the Faculty of Dental Medicine, and contribute to the development of teaching, services, clinical research, and knowledge translation in this field.

In addition, the candidate's field of expertise should cover the treatment of medically compromised patients, medical emergencies in the dental practice and medical considerations in dentistry.
