Welcome to the latest issue of BDJ Team – my very first as editor, so a big hello to all our readers!

May's issue takes a close look at the current opinion surrounding electronic nicotine delivery systems, more commonly known as e-cigarettes. As sales continue to outstrip research, we seek opinions on whether we should be recommending them to patients, and if so how.

Also in this issue Xperient LLP partner Nicola Burnett Smith discusses how to stay out of trouble at work and remain professional in practice. She looks back on her career to date and picks out some of the classic ways practice staff fall short of good practice – without even knowing it.

As many of you will know the BDA Conference & Exhibition has now finished for 2015. We take a look at some of the highlights of this year and whet the appetite of things to come in 2016.

To wrap things up, Clinical Services Director at {My}dentist Steve Williams discusses the practicalities of skill mix and what successful implementation can mean to your practice. Steve gives us his insight into what makes skill mix work and what we can learn from practices embracing role substitution.

This issue offers another hour of CPD and don't forget: all CPD since March 2014 is available until the end of 2015! www.nature.com/bdjteam/cpd.

See you in June!
