Background

Clinical diagnosis of ankyloglossia and its therapeutic management through lingual frenotomy (LF) have increased in several countries. However, systematic reviews (SRs) and experts opinions show conflicting results on this topic.

Aim

To synthesize the available knowledge with a critical evaluation of SRs on LF in infants up to 1 year of age on breastfeeding-related outcomes.

Design

An umbrella review was carried out. Searches were conducted (seven electronic databases, gray literature). SRs of clinical trials involving infants up to 1 year of age undergoing LF to treat maternal self-efficacy related to breastfeeding, nipple pain, and/or weight gain were included. The articles were critically analyzed (AMSTAR 2).

Results

We identified 272 studies; 15 SRs were included. Confidence was classified as critically low (n = 14; 93.3%) and moderate (n = 1; 6.7%). Fourteen SRs had more than two critical aspects, indicating that the studies were not conducted properly.

Conclusion

The evidence on the efficacy of LF in infants remains inconclusive in relation to breastfeeding outcomes, especially maternal self-efficacy related to breastfeeding and weight gain. Evidence of benefit for the treatment of breast pain is weak. Overdiagnosis of ankyloglossia may lead to overtreatment of the condition, without high-quality evidence to support the benefits of this procedure.

背景:在一些国家,强直性咬合的临床诊断及其通过舌截骨术(LF)的治疗管理有所增加。然而,系统综述(SRs)和专家意见在这一主题上显示出相互矛盾的结果。目的:综合现有的知识,对1岁以下婴儿LF的SRs与母乳喂养相关的结果进行批判性评估。设计:进行了总体审查。进行了检索(7个电子数据库,灰色文献)。包括1岁以下婴儿接受LF治疗与母乳喂养、乳头疼痛和/或体重增加相关的母亲自我效能的临床试验的SRs。对文章进行批判性分析(AMSTAR 2)。结果:我们确定了272项研究;包括15个sr。置信度分为极低(n = 14; 93.3%)和中等(n = 1; 6.7%)。14项特别报告有两个以上的关键方面,表明这些研究没有适当地进行。结论:LF对婴儿母乳喂养效果的影响尚不明确,尤其是与母乳喂养和体重增加有关的母亲自我效能感。对治疗乳房疼痛有益的证据很弱。过度诊断强直性咬合可能导致过度治疗,没有高质量的证据来支持这种手术的好处。

Background

Regular follow-up after dental treatment is essential to prevent the development and progression of new caries lesions in children. However, there is no consensus on the optimal recall interval.

Aim

The aim of the present clinical trial was to evaluate the effectiveness of two different recall intervals for high caries risk children.

Design

A total of 224 preschool children (aged 3–5 years) with at least one active caries lesion were selected. After treatment, children were randomized into two different groups according to the recall interval: every 4 months or every 8 months. A single trained and calibrated examiner re-evaluated participants according to their group. The primary outcome was caries lesion progression into dentine (ICDAS 5–6). Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the association between the independent variables and primary outcome (α = 5%).

Results

Children in the 8-month recall group were 2.5 times more likely to develop new cavitated caries lesions when compared to those in the 4-month recall group, over 30 months.

Conclusion

High caries risk children on an 8-month recall schedule had a significantly higher risk of developing new cavitated caries lesions compared to those with a 4-month recall interval.

背景:牙科治疗后的定期随访对于预防儿童新龋的发生和发展至关重要。然而,对于最优回忆间隔,目前还没有达成共识。目的:本临床试验的目的是评估两种不同的回忆间隔对高龋风险儿童的有效性。设计:选取至少有一例活动性龋病的学龄前儿童224例(3-5岁)。治疗后,根据回忆间隔将患儿随机分为每4个月或每8个月两组。一名经过培训和校准的审查员根据参与者的小组对他们进行重新评估。主要结果是龋齿进展到牙本质(ICDAS 5-6)。采用Logistic回归分析评价自变量与主要转归的相关性(α = 5%)。结果:在30个月的时间里,8个月回忆组的儿童发生新的空腔性龋齿病变的可能性是4个月回忆组的2.5倍。结论:与回忆间隔4个月的儿童相比,回忆间隔8个月的高龋风险儿童发生新的空腔性龋齿的风险显著增加。

Background

Cemental tear (CeT), a detachment of the root cementum, is rarely reported in pediatric populations and often misdiagnosed as root fractures or endodontic-periodontal lesions.

Case Report

This is the first documented instance of CeT in a healthy 12-year-old female, likely a result of the extraction of a supernumerary tooth (mesiodens). The patient had a supernumerary tooth diagnosed at age 2 that was extracted at age 10. Radiograph after 1 year of supernumerary tooth extraction revealed a linear radiopacity adjacent to the left maxillary central incisor, diagnosed as CeT by specialists. Despite the radiographic signs, the tooth remained asymptomatic and vital, with no surgical intervention required. This case underscores the importance of including CeT in the differential diagnosis for pediatric patients with unexplained periodontal changes following surgical or traumatic events. Conservative monitoring was successful, likely due to children's enhanced regenerative capacity. The case also highlights the diagnostic value of angled periapical radiographs in detecting CeT.

Conclusion

Pediatric dentists should be aware of CeT as a potential diagnosis in young patients and consider less invasive management approaches. A revised decision-making algorithm for managing supernumerary teeth is proposed to reflect these findings.

背景:骨水泥撕裂(CeT)是一种牙根骨水泥的脱离,在儿科人群中很少报道,并且经常被误诊为牙根骨折或牙髓-牙周病变。病例报告:这是一名健康的12岁女性的第一例有文献记载的CeT,可能是拔了一颗多余的牙齿(中齿)的结果。患者在2岁时被诊断出有一颗多余的牙齿,在10岁时被拔掉。拔余牙1年后的x线片显示左侧上颌中切牙附近有线状放射状不透明,专家诊断为CeT。尽管有放射学征象,牙齿仍然无症状和重要,不需要手术干预。本病例强调了在手术或创伤事件后出现不明原因牙周变化的儿科患者鉴别诊断中包括CeT的重要性。保守监测是成功的,可能是由于儿童的再生能力增强。本病例也强调了尖周角度x线片对CeT的诊断价值。结论:儿科牙医应该意识到年轻患者的CeT是一种潜在的诊断,并考虑微创治疗方法。为了反映这些发现,提出了一种用于管理多余牙齿的修订决策算法。

Introduction

The pivotal role of self-reported measures in clinical caries data and children's oral health-related quality of life cannot be ignored.

Aim

This study aimed to assess the psychometric properties of the Telugu-translated caries impacts and experiences questionnaire for children (CARIES-QC/Te) among 12-year-old schoolchildren in Hyderabad city.

Methods

The forward–backward translated CARIES-QC/Te was pilot tested in 30 children. The tested questionnaire was administered to 598 children, followed by a clinical oral examination to evaluate dental caries. Internal consistency was determined using Cronbach's α and intraclass correlation. The factor structure of CARIES-QC/Te was analyzed using exploratory factor analysis (EFA). Furthermore, the questionnaire was correlated with a global rating question to assess its convergent validity. In addition, discriminant validity was evaluated based on the presence or absence of dental caries.

Results

The mean CARIES-QC/Te score was 0.43 ± 0.60, and the mean caries experience for the study population was 1.8 ± 0.81. Based on the global rating question, Cronbach's α score and intraclass correlation coefficient for overall CARIES-QC/Te were 0.934 and 0.881, respectively. The polychoric correlation matrix of the CARIES-QC/Te questionnaire ranged from 0.424 to 0.652. The EFA results of CARIES-QC/T suggested a one-factor solution and explained 51.7% of the total variance. Moreover, CARIES-QC/Te demonstrated good discriminant validity for those with and without dental caries.

Conclusion

The results indicate that CARIES-QC/Te exhibits good validity and acceptable reliability and could benefit public health research in Telugu-speaking populations.

自我报告测量在临床龋齿数据和儿童口腔健康相关生活质量中的关键作用不容忽视。目的:本研究旨在评估泰卢固语翻译的儿童龋齿影响与体验问卷(龋齿- qc /Te)在海得拉巴市12岁学童中的心理测量特征。方法:对30例儿童进行前向后翻译的CARIES-QC/Te量表的先导测试。对598名儿童进行了测试问卷调查,随后进行了临床口腔检查以评估龋齿。内部一致性采用Cronbach’s α和类内相关测定。采用探索性因子分析(EFA)分析CARIES-QC/Te的因子结构。此外,问卷与一个全球评级问题相关,以评估其收敛效度。此外,判别效度是根据是否有龋齿来评估的。结果:龋齿- qc /Te评分平均值为0.43±0.60,研究人群龋齿经历平均值为1.8±0.81。基于全局评分问题,总体CARIES-QC/Te的Cronbach's α评分和类内相关系数分别为0.934和0.881。CARIES-QC/Te问卷的多元相关矩阵为0.424 ~ 0.652。CARIES-QC/T的EFA结果显示单因素解决方案,解释总方差的51.7%。此外,龋齿- qc /Te在有龋和无龋人群中均表现出良好的判别效度。结论:CARIES-QC/Te具有良好的效度和可接受的信度,可为泰卢格语人群的公共卫生研究提供参考。

Background

Multimodal large language models (LLMs) have potential for medical image analysis, yet their reliability for pediatric panoramic radiographs remains uncertain.

Aim

This study evaluated two multimodal LLMs (OpenAI o1, Claude 3.5 Sonnet) for detecting and counting teeth (including tooth germs) on pediatric panoramic radiographs.

Design

Eighty-seven pediatric panoramic radiographs from an open-source data set were analyzed. Two pediatric dentists annotated the presence or absence of each potential tooth position. Each image was processed five times by the LLMs using identical prompts, and the results were compared with the expert annotations. Standard performance metrics and Fleiss' kappa were calculated.

Results

Detailed examination revealed that subtle developmental stages and minor tooth loss were consistently misidentified. Claude 3.5 Sonnet had higher sensitivity but significantly lower specificity (29.8% ± 21.5%), resulting in many false positives. OpenAI o1 demonstrated superior specificity compared to Claude 3.5 Sonnet, but still failed to correctly detect subtle defects in certain mixed dentition cases. Both models showed large variability in repeated runs.

Conclusion

Both LLMs failed to achieve clinically acceptable performance and cannot reliably identify nuanced discrepancies critical for pediatric dentistry. Further refinements and consistency improvements are essential before routine clinical use.

背景:多模态大语言模型(llm)具有医学图像分析的潜力,但其在儿科全景x线片上的可靠性仍不确定。目的:评价两种多模态llm (OpenAI 01和Claude 3.5 Sonnet)在儿童全景x线片上检测和计数牙齿(包括牙齿细菌)的效果。设计:对来自开源数据集的87张儿科全景x线片进行分析。两名儿科牙医注释了每个潜在牙齿位置的存在或缺失。每个图像由llm使用相同的提示处理五次,并将结果与专家注释进行比较。计算标准性能指标和Fleiss kappa。结果:详细的检查显示,细微的发育阶段和轻微的牙齿脱落一直被误诊。Claude 3.5 Sonnet的敏感性较高,但特异性明显较低(29.8%±21.5%),导致假阳性较多。与Claude 3.5 Sonnet相比,OpenAI 01表现出更高的特异性,但在某些混合牙列病例中仍未能正确检测出细微缺陷。两个模型在重复运行中都显示出很大的变异性。结论:两种LLMs都未能达到临床可接受的性能,并且不能可靠地识别对儿科牙科至关重要的细微差异。在常规临床使用之前,进一步的改进和一致性改进是必不可少的。

Background

Hearing-impaired children face unique communication and learning challenges, requiring tailored oral health education.

Aim

This study assessed the effectiveness of a custom-designed sign language cartoon film in improving oral hygiene knowledge and practices among hearing-impaired children.

Design

A randomized controlled trial included 90 children aged 6–12, divided equally into an intervention group receiving the cartoon-based education and a control group with no intervention. Baseline assessments covered audiometry, plaque and gingival indices, and oral health knowledge/practices via questionnaire. Follow-ups occurred at 6 and 12 weeks. Data were analyzed using nonparametric tests.

Results

Baseline variables showed no significant group differences (p > 0.05). Postintervention, the intervention group demonstrated significantly higher oral health knowledge (12.38 ± 1.14 vs. 1.64 ± 1.17; p < 0.001, Cohen's d = 9.3). At 12 weeks, plaque (0.34 ± 0.40 vs. 2.21 ± 0.53; p < 0.001, Cohen's d = 3.98) and gingival index scores (0.10 ± 0.28 vs. 1.86 ± 0.54; p < 0.001, Cohen's d = 4.09) were significantly lower in the intervention group compared to the controls.

Conclusions

Sign language cartoon films effectively enhance oral hygiene knowledge and practices in hearing-impaired children, highlighting the value of inclusive, innovative health education methods for this underserved group.

背景:听力受损儿童面临着独特的沟通和学习挑战,需要针对性的口腔健康教育。目的:本研究评估特制的手语卡通电影对提高听障儿童口腔卫生知识和行为的效果。设计:随机对照试验纳入90名6-12岁儿童,平均分为接受卡通教育的干预组和不进行干预的对照组。基线评估包括听力测量、牙菌斑和牙龈指数,以及通过问卷调查的口腔健康知识/实践。随访时间分别为6周和12周。数据分析采用非参数检验。结果:各组基线变量差异无统计学意义(p < 0.05)。干预后,干预组口腔卫生知识水平显著高于干预组(12.38±1.14 vs. 1.64±1.17);p结论:手语卡通电影有效提高了听障儿童口腔卫生知识和实践水平,突出了包容性、创新性健康教育方法对这一服务不足群体的价值。

Background

Differentiating between primary and permanent teeth is a critical component of oral health knowledge, influencing both preventive care and clinical decisions. With the growing use of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare and education, its role in supporting learning is of increasing interest.

Aim

This study evaluated the diagnostic accuracy and internal consistency of ChatGPT-4.5 in classifying primary versus permanent teeth using intraoral photographs, compared to senior dental students and parents.

Methods

A comparative cross-sectional study was conducted involving 130 participants (65 senior dental students and 65 parents). ChatGPT-4.5 was also evaluated. An online survey with 16 intraoral images showing multiple teeth was used. Participants classified each tooth as either primary or permanent. Responses were reviewed by two pediatric dentistry experts. Accuracy was analyzed using ANOVA and Tukey's HSD test (p < 0.05). Internal consistency was assessed using Cronbach's alpha.

Results

ChatGPT-4.5 (82.9%) and dental students (82.1%) showed similar accuracy, while parents performed significantly lower (74.8%). A significant difference was found in posterior tooth classification (p = 0.009), favoring students. ChatGPT demonstrated good consistency (α = 0.74).

Conclusion

ChatGPT may be a useful tool in dental education and parental guidance, especially when professional access is limited.

背景:区分乳牙和恒牙是口腔健康知识的重要组成部分,影响预防保健和临床决策。随着人工智能(AI)在医疗保健和教育领域的应用越来越多,它在支持学习方面的作用越来越受到关注。目的:本研究评估ChatGPT-4.5在使用口腔内照片对乳牙和恒牙进行分类的诊断准确性和内部一致性,并与高年级牙科学生和家长进行比较。方法:采用比较横断面研究方法,对130名老年牙科学生(65名)和65名家长(65名)进行研究。ChatGPT-4.5也进行了评估。使用了一项包含16张显示多颗牙齿的口腔内图像的在线调查。参与者将每颗牙齿分为乳牙和恒牙。回复由两名儿科牙科专家审查。采用方差分析和Tukey’s HSD检验(p)对准确性进行分析。结果:ChatGPT-4.5(82.9%)和牙科学生(82.1%)的准确性相似,而家长的准确性明显较低(74.8%)。后牙分类差异有统计学意义(p = 0.009),有利于学生。ChatGPT具有良好的一致性(α = 0.74)。结论:ChatGPT可能是牙科教育和家长指导的有用工具,特别是在专业人员访问有限的情况下。

<p>Stainless steel crowns (SSC) are a valuable restorative option in paediatric patients due to their high clinical effectiveness [<span>1-3</span>]. Literature has suggested reduced failure rates in SSC placed with hall and conventional techniques for primary molars versus restorations such as glass ionomer cement (GIC), composite and amalgam [<span>1</span>]. In order to appropriately plan treatment, teeth need to be assessed for suitability for SSC placement, which includes pre-operative radiographs [<span>2</span>]. Radiographs can be used in the assessment of contraindications to SSC placement [<span>1-3</span>] such as there being no sound band of dentine between carious lesions and the pulp [<span>2</span>] and evidence of radiographic pulpal involvement or infection [<span>3</span>].</p><p>To assess and improve compliance of clinicians within a community dental service in taking preoperative radiographs prior to placing stainless steel crowns.</p><p>UK national clinical guidelines for SSCs advise taking pre-operative radiographs prior to placement on primary molars [<span>1</span>]. This standard has been adapted to account for the patient groups (e.g., pre-cooperative patients) treated in the community dental service where radiographs may not be possible.</p><p>In assessing Question 3, the relevant medical history was reviewed for factors that could have affected the ability to take radiographs, including learning disabilities, autism spectrum disorder and behavioural or mental health conditions. When assessing Question 4, possible written justification for not attempting radiographs included if the patient was a pre-cooperative child or if the teeth being crowned were hypomineralised non-carious teeth.</p><p>Individual clinician data for the first cycle was collected in order to allow for individual feedback to be provided to staff members if required, and this was emailed across if the staff member asked for their data but was anonymised for analysis and presentation of results.</p><p>Data collection for both cycles was conducted using an electronic Audit Management and Tracking (AMAT) proforma. Between the first and second cycle of the audit, an action plan was implemented. A retrospective second cycle audit was conducted between 25 February 2023 and 25 February 2024 using the same methods as the first cycle.</p><p>In the first cycle of the audit, 11 clinicians and 161 crowns were audited, while in the second cycle, 11 clinicians and 174 crowns were audited. The results of both cycles are summarised in Table 1.</p><p>Within the first cycle, there was no relevant medical history noted. Within the second cycle, there were three patients whose medical history was deemed to have contributed to issues with cooperation with radiographs prior to crown placement. Two of these patients had two crowns placed each, leading to a total of five crowns. This involved two crowns placed on a patient with autism, pathological demand avoidance and devel
不锈钢牙冠(SSC)因其高临床疗效而成为儿科患者一种有价值的修复选择[1-3]。文献表明,与玻璃离子水泥(GIC)、复合材料和汞合金[1]等修复体相比,采用霍尔和传统技术放置SSC的初级磨牙失败率降低。为了适当地计划治疗,需要评估牙齿是否适合放置SSC,其中包括术前x线片[2]。x线片可用于评估SSC放置的禁忌症[1-3],例如在龋齿病变和牙髓[2]之间没有良好的牙本质带,以及x线片上有牙髓受损伤或感染[3]的证据。评估和提高社区牙科服务的临床医生在放置不锈钢牙冠之前进行术前x线片的依从性。英国国家ssc临床指南建议在第一磨牙放置前进行术前x线片检查。本标准已被修改,以考虑在社区牙科服务中治疗的患者群体(例如,合作前患者),这些患者可能无法进行x光检查。在评估问题3时,审查了可能影响拍摄x光片能力的相关病史,包括学习障碍、自闭症谱系障碍和行为或精神健康状况。在评估问题4时,不尝试x光片的可能书面理由包括:如果患者是一个未合作的儿童,或者如果正在冠的牙齿是低矿化的非龋齿。收集了第一个周期的个人临床医生数据,以便在需要时向工作人员提供个人反馈,如果工作人员要求提供他们的数据,则通过电子邮件发送这些数据,但为了分析和展示结果,这些数据是匿名的。两个周期的数据收集使用电子审计管理和跟踪(AMAT)形式进行。在审计的第一个周期和第二个周期之间,执行了一项行动计划。在2023年2月25日至2024年2月25日期间,采用与第一次周期相同的方法进行了回顾性第二周期审计。在第一轮审计中,审计了11名临床医生和161名冠,而在第二轮审计中,审计了11名临床医生和174名冠。表1总结了这两个周期的结果。在第一个周期内,没有相关的病史记录。在第二个周期内,有三名患者的病史被认为与冠植入前的x线片配合问题有关。其中两名患者每人安置了两个冠,总共安置了五个冠。这包括给一个患有自闭症、病理性需求回避和发育迟缓的病人戴上两个皇冠,给一个患有自闭症的病人戴上两个皇冠,给一个患有注意力缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)和疑似自闭症的病人戴上一个皇冠。教授了在放置不锈钢牙冠之前拍摄x光片的重要性,并在社区牙科服务的同行评审会议上介绍了第一轮审计数据及其分析。创建了不锈钢冠治疗的临床记录保存模板,并通过电子邮件发送给临床医生。最后,为不锈钢冠盒设计了一个标签,提醒临床医生在放置SSC之前拍摄x光片,或记录不拍摄x光片的理由,并分发给该服务的所有诊所(图1)。在第二个周期中,冠的放置频率略有增加;这可能是由于在教学中提供了关于不锈钢牙冠的适应症和益处的教育。在第一个和第二个周期之间,结果有明显的改善。这包括术前拍摄更多的x光片,以及在不拍摄x光片时改善记录保存。在第二个周期,有更多的人试图拍x光片;因此,术前有x光片在场的冠放置比例(问题1)以及尝试拍摄x光片不成功的证据(问题2)总体上都有所增加。在第一个周期后实施的行动中注重良好的文件;因此,在第二个周期中,94%的放置冠的病例达到了标准(问题5)。审计的一个限制是,有时对于某些词是否意味着尝试了x光片但不成功或根本没有尝试,因为患者被认为是预先合作的,例如对“不合作”一词的解释,因此这些被包括在“其他书面理由”中(问题4)。 另一个限制是,第二周期样本期开始于行动计划实施后3个月,此时临床医生对标准有了更敏锐的认识。由于对标准有很高的遵从性,对100%的目标有94%的遵从性,因此不建议对实现进行进一步的更改。建议在12个月进行后续审计,以确定是否保持高度遵守。总的来说,这个项目是成功的。这是NHS基金会信托第一次对这一主题进行审计,在第二个周期之后,在不锈钢冠放置之前拍摄的术前x线片数量大幅增加。临床医生现在更了解在不锈钢牙冠的治疗计划中采取术前x线片的原因,并且能够与患者一起做出明智的决定,决定哪些初级磨牙将从这种治疗中受益。作者声明无利益冲突。

Radiographs can be used in the assessment of contraindications to SSC placement [&lt;span&gt;1-3&lt;/span&gt;] such as there being no sound band of dentine between carious lesions and the pulp [&lt;span&gt;2&lt;/span&gt;] and evidence of radiographic pulpal involvement or infection [&lt;span&gt;3&lt;/span&gt;].&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To assess and improve compliance of clinicians within a community dental service in taking preoperative radiographs prior to placing stainless steel crowns.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;UK national clinical guidelines for SSCs advise taking pre-operative radiographs prior to placement on primary molars [&lt;span&gt;1&lt;/span&gt;]. This standard has been adapted to account for the patient groups (e.g., pre-cooperative patients) treated in the community dental service where radiographs may not be possible.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In assessing Question 3, the relevant medical history was reviewed for factors that could have affected the ability to take radiographs, including learning disabilities, autism spectrum disorder and behavioural or mental health conditions. When assessing Question 4, possible written justification for not attempting radiographs included if the patient was a pre-cooperative child or if the teeth being crowned were hypomineralised non-carious teeth.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Individual clinician data for the first cycle was collected in order to allow for individual feedback to be provided to staff members if required, and this was emailed across if the staff member asked for their data but was anonymised for analysis and presentation of results.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Data collection for both cycles was conducted using an electronic Audit Management and Tracking (AMAT) proforma. Between the first and second cycle of the audit, an action plan was implemented. A retrospective second cycle audit was conducted between 25 February 2023 and 25 February 2024 using the same methods as the first cycle.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the first cycle of the audit, 11 clinicians and 161 crowns were audited, while in the second cycle, 11 clinicians and 174 crowns were audited. The results of both cycles are summarised in Table 1.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Within the first cycle, there was no relevant medical history noted. Within the second cycle, there were three patients whose medical history was deemed to have contributed to issues with cooperation with radiographs prior to crown placement.

I have mixed emotions as I write my final BSPD supplement as BSPD honorary editor. As ever, it has been a privilege to see the vibrant culture of sharing best practice in clinical work, quality improvement, and research in our specialty, evidenced in the abstracts for our annual conference and the Quality Improvement Bulletin contained in this supplement. However, I am of course sad to be leaving behind the role of honorary editor of BSPD. I have greatly enjoyed working alongside members of the BSPD executive and council to improve the oral health of children and can now count my executive colleagues as lifelong friends. The role has given me the opportunity to be involved in a great breadth of activity related to paediatric dentistry and meet many amazing people. I wish my successor, Professor Richard Balmer, every success as he takes up the reins and can only hope he enjoys it as much as I have.

The abstracts will be presented at our much anticipated conference, to be held in London, under the leadership of Local Organising Committee chair, Dr Dania Siddik. Dr Ursula Devalia will commence her term as president during the conference which has the theme of ‘Foundations for the Future’, an apt strapline for much of this supplement which shows off some of the new talent and rising stars of our profession, which illustrates a bright future! I would especially like to thank members of the Conference Abstracts and Prizes Committee for their very hard work in reviewing the abstracts and in advance for their judging of the prize competitions as well as Jade Lawson at our conference organisers, Fitwise, for her work in administering all of the abstract processes.

As ever, I am indebted to the editorial team for our Quality Improvement Briefing, under the new leadership of Dr Armaana Ahmad. Armaana and the rest of the QIB team, Dr Laura Timms and Dr Claudia Heggie, have curated an excellent set of articles that will provide inspiration for quality improvement across the United Kingdom and beyond. I hope you enjoy reading the supplement, and thank you to BSPD for the opportunity to serve the speciality over the last 5 years.

当我以BSPD荣誉编辑的身份撰写最后一篇BSPD增刊时,我的心情很复杂。一如既往,我们非常荣幸地看到我们在临床工作、质量改进和专业研究中分享最佳实践的充满活力的文化,这在我们的年度会议摘要和本增刊中包含的质量改进公报中得到了证明。然而,要离开BSPD荣誉编辑的角色,我当然感到难过。我非常喜欢与BSPD执行和理事会的成员一起工作,以改善儿童的口腔健康,现在我可以把我的执行同事视为一生的朋友。这个角色让我有机会参与到与儿科牙科相关的广泛活动中,并结识了许多了不起的人。我祝愿我的继任者理查德•鲍尔默教授接任后一切顺利,我只希望他能像我一样乐在其中。在当地组委会主席Dania Siddik博士的领导下,这些摘要将在我们备受期待的伦敦会议上发表。厄休拉·德瓦利亚博士将在会议期间开始她的主席任期,会议的主题是“未来的基础”,这是一个恰当的概括,展示了我们行业的一些新人才和冉冉升起的明星,这说明了一个光明的未来!我要特别感谢会议摘要和评奖委员会的成员,感谢他们在审查摘要和提前评奖方面所做的辛勤工作。我还要感谢会议组织者Fitwise的Jade Lawson,感谢她在管理所有摘要过程中所做的工作。与以往一样,我感谢在Armaana Ahmad博士的新领导下,我们的质量改进简报的编辑团队。Armaana和QIB团队的其他成员Laura Timms博士和Claudia Heggie博士策划了一系列优秀的文章,这些文章将为英国及其他地区的质量改进提供灵感。我希望您喜欢阅读增刊,并感谢BSPD在过去5年中为该专业服务的机会。
