🦷 Exciting News: Our Special Issue on Periodontology is Here!
We're thrilled to announce the release of this month's special issue, led by the BSP.

The key theme running through the articles is how best to work within the ‘Steps of Care’ for treating periodontal diseases, as developed originally through the European Federation of Periodontology (EFP). Once the guidelines have been developed by the EFP, the periodontal societies across Europe then incorporate them into national guidance.

This process is known as ‘adolopment’, which means a combination of adopting and adapting the European guidelines to fit within each country’s national context of oral healthcare delivery. To ensure the guidelines are as robust as possible the process of development is carefully structured and includes both a systematic appraisal of the published evidence as well as involving the clinical experience and expertise of a range of stakeholders in interpreting the evidence prior to making recommendations.

Whether you're based in a hospital, university, or private practice, there's something for everyone. Dive into this rich collection of articles and expand your understanding of the treatment of periodontitis.
