Privacy and confidentiality

As part of our commitment to delivering current and relevant content for dental practices, we regularly review and update our resources to reflect the latest developments, research, and best practice. We are gradually removing out-of-date resources from our website to ensure the accuracy and reliability of our information.

This allows us to thoroughly evaluate and refresh the content, ensuring that members and their dental teams can access the most current and reliable information.

We appreciate your understanding and patience as we work to maintain the quality and integrity of our resources.
