    Abstract

    Each month, the Journal of the Michigan Dental Association delivers news, information, and features about Michigan dentistry to our state's oral health community and the MDA's 6,200-plus members. It remains the main publication reaching Michigan dentists and is available worldwide through ADA Commons.

    The June 2026 (Volume 108, No. 6) issue of the Journal is published in digital format to provide updates and insights for Michigan's oral health community and MDA members. Print editions occur every other month beginning with January.

    The June 2026 issue of the Journal of the Michigan Dental Association provides association updates, legal advice, and clinical insights. Featured content includes a recap of the 2026 Annual Session, details on the 2027 Great Lakes Dental Summit transition, and legislative updates regarding the state budget and advocacy efforts.
