Main
I was most disappointed to see such a poor photograph used to illustrate the news item on team working on page eight of the Spring 2006 issue. A journal with aspirations to raise the status of DCPs should at the very least portray only the highest standards of practice behaviour. Neither the dental nurse nor the patient is wearing protective eyewear of any sort, and I would hope that this image is not to be used again.
Vital replies: Many thanks for your eagle eyes. You can rest assured that we will not be using this picture again and will in future be checking all photos for best health and safety practice before publishing them. We hope that you enjoy the collection of the latest Colgate Oral Health Professional products (£100 RRP) that are on their way to you.
Please SEND YOUR LETTERS, which may be edited for reasons of space, to: The Editor, Vital Magazine, BDJ, Nature Publishing Group, 4-6 Crinan Street, London N1 9XW or email vitaleditorial@nature.com
