    AbstractInduction for junior doctors is an important part of training where they can gain knowledge, confidence and integration into the hospital team. Dentally trained oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS) senior house officers (SHOs) enter into this unfamiliar environment often with limited experience. The OMFS SHO induction process is an expected and essential part of hospital training. There are, however, no standards set by the governing bodies regarding content or delivery methods. The current literature and local departmental evaluation suggests changes are required. There appear to be discrepancies in the perceived role of induction and the inductions provided. The literature review and study examines the attitudes towards induction training and recommendations for improvement.
