The Primary Dental Journal is our quarterly, themed and peer-reviewed membership journal, uniquely dedicated to general dental practice.
The latest issue is themed on the topic of ‘Oral medicine’ and highlights the vital role that dental professionals contribute to the diagnosis and management of patients with oral medicine conditions. Papers cover a wide range of conditions seen at various ages and stages of life, and also highlight some of the rarer conditions that may initially be presented to dentists.
