The professional body for primary oral healthcare and general practice dentistry: fostering the commitment of dental professionals to excellent patient care and oral health for all, supporting professional development, and enhancing careers.
The Primary Dental Journal is our quarterly, themed and peer-reviewed membership journal, uniquely dedicated to general dental practice.
The current issue is the second of two consecutive journal issues on the theme of implant dentistry. ‘Implant dentistry (part two)’, guest-edited by Professor Ilser Turkyilmaz, Associate Dean of Digital Innovation, Professor and Chair at USA Case Western Reserve University’s School of Dental Medicine, focuses on digital and analogue workflows, with the core emphasis on the importance of thorough treatment planning, reinforced by advanced imaging techniques.
