SAAD Digest
March 2024
Volume: 40
Issue: 1

Title: Editorial

Author(s): N. Robb

Abstract:  

Digest evolves, but the problems of access to dental care worsen. Almost a quarter of the way through the 21st century, what progress since SAAD was founded?

Welcome to SAAD Digest 40(1). This year marks an exciting milestone for SAAD Digest. We are moving to two issues per year: March and September. The Editorial Board have decided to make this change as a result of the continuing submission of large numbers of high-quality papers of interest to our readers. As I write this editorial, we already have ten papers submitted for Digest 40(2). You will notice a few other changes as you read through this edition.

If you have a query relating to this article please email: digest@saad.org.uk
