Abstract
The Communicatoris the journal of the American Association of Dental Editors. It is published quarterly and distributed digitally via email to members and posted on the Association’s website aadej.org.
This issue of The Communicator continues its focus on the evolving landscape of dental journalism, offering insightful perspectives for editors and communicators. A major highlight is the celebration of the over 50-year partnership between AADEJ and the International College of Dentists (ICD), emphasizing their joint efforts and the forthcoming shared Annual Meeting and awards reception in San Diego. The publication delves into the critical concept of professional and publication standards, including a discussion on the "Standard of Care" in dentistry and the newly outlined AADEJ guidelines for the responsible use of AI in dental publications, stressing its ethical implications.
A featured article showcases the Michigan Dental Association's proactive leadership in funding and supporting dental editors' professional development, presenting it as a model for other state associations. Furthermore, the issue provides practical strategies for maximizing engagement with digital publications through social media, email, and analytics, underscoring the shift to a digital-first approach. The "Human Role in Artificial Intelligence" is thoughtfully explored, advocating for crucial human oversight in AI's implementation within clinical dental practice. The issue culminates with a detailed schedule for the eagerly anticipated AADEJ Annual Meeting, promising an event packed with speakers, workshops, and networking opportunities.
