ELIGIBILITY

Editors of professional dental publications, and any others NOT associated with proprietary periodicals, are invited to submit a copy of no more than two of their editorials, published between January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2023 which they believe are outstanding.  Eligible periodicals are those under the regulation of a professional dental society or a society of dental hygienists, dental assistants, dental schools, dental alumni, or a dental fraternity. Regulation implies control of editorial and scientific contributions in the periodical, in addition control of advertising in order to assure its accuracy and factuality.

Also, please be sure that your submission is either a quality photo or pdf made from the original publication. Manuscript copies will not be accepted.
