Volume 4 Issue 1, January 2017

In her cover feature in this issue of BDJ Team, Zoe Marshman says that dental anxiety affects people of all ages and tends to develop in childhood and adolescence. Zoe writes about the new self-help CBT guide she helped develop, aimed at reducing dental anxiety in children. A child who is happy to come into the practice for their treatment should continue to return as they grow into adults - which can only be good news for oral health.

To kick off 2017 we also feature articles on managing the dental care of cancer patients and interview inspirational DCP Rosalyn Davies.
