The Faculty of General Dental Practice (UK) (FGDP[UK]) has launched a new journal, the Primary Dental Journal (PDJ). The PDJ replaces the Faculty's previous journals Primary Dental Care and Team in Practice.
The PDJ is a themed professional development journal for the whole dental team. Each issue will feature evidence-based research and best practice guidance around one important topic. The launch issue (pictured) focuses on infection prevention and features articles on HTM 01-05, whistleblowing, asepsis in implant dentistry and infection control for hygienists.
In changing its flagship publication from an academic research journal to a themed professional development journal the FGDP(UK) aims to make the PDJ's strapline a reality: Supporting the team, benefitting patients.
The PDJ is free to members of the FGDP(UK); non-members and institutions may subscribe.
