Doctor's Bio

---

Dr. Steven M. Roser, MD, DMD, specializes in palate and maxillofacial surgery. In 2009, he was the first oral surgeon in Atlanta to use virtual surgery planning for free flap reconstruction following ablative surgery for oral cavity cancer.

Dr. Roser has an extensive history of international service that includes being a team leader for the Missions Abroad Program of Healing the Children-Northeast every year since 1992. In this role, he takes surgical teams to countries in Central and South America to provide such services as cleft lip and cleft palate repair. In 2017, he began participating in the Emory Haiti Alliance’s summer surgical trips to Haiti’s central plateau, the poorest and most medically underserved region in the country — Dr. Roser’s first trip to Haiti was in 2010 in the first wave of medical responders following that year’s devastating earthquake.

He has received numerous awards recognizing his efforts as an international surgeon, including the Distinguished Service Award of the International Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons in 2019, the Humanitarian Award of the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons in 2011, a Presidential Citation for Humanitarian Efforts in Ecuador in 2005, and the American Dental Association’s Oversees Volunteer Award in 2003.
