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 current issue includes an insight into the information provided by practice websites on oral cancer; a paradigm shift in dental caries management using silver modified atraumatic restorative treatment (SMART); and an overview of the remarkable two-way links between diabetes mellitus and periodontal disease.
