Abstract 

This review summarises the 81 papers relating to oral surgery and to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) published in the British Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (BJOMS) January 2008–December 2009. They include full length articles on distraction osteogenesis, imaging, extraction techniques, implants, and the management of facial pain and disorders of the TMJ including joint replacement. Many short communications were also published, but an editorial decision was taken in August 2009 to publish most of these in future in the online journal only. As BJOMS encompasses the whole remit of the specialty, and other specialist journals on oral surgery are available, it was encouraging to see that authors still choose submit their work to our journal.
