I am extremely appreciative for everyone who plays a role in supporting the Journal of Dental Hygiene though their submissions of timely manuscripts to the members of our Editorial Review Board who freely give their time and expertise with their thorough reviews of the research submissions. In addition, we also have many individuals who are not formally on our Editorial Review Board, who generously contribute their experience when needed. This editorial is dedicated to all of who give their ongoing support of our peer-reviewed, scholarly Journal.
Providing a comprehensive review of a manuscript takes a great deal of time to provide thoughtful, constructive feedback to the authors. Our Editorial Review Board members come to us with their own areas of expertise and commitment to the dental hygiene profession. While most of our Editorial Review Board members are dental hygienists, we also have members who are dentists, hold doctorates in other fields or are dental hygienists with additional degrees including nursing, public health, nutrition, physical therapy, and other allied health professions.
I would like to personally thank Sue Bessner and Tyler Dempsey from the Professional Development and Membership Engagement Division of the American Dental Hygienists' Association as well as ADHA's Chief Executive Officer, Ann Battrell, and Chief Operating Officer, Bob Moore, who are so supportive of the Journal of Dental Hygiene and what it represents to the advancement of the profession. Finally. I want to personally thank Cathy Draper, RDH, MS who serves as our managing editor. She works tirelessly with the reviewers, authors and the editor through all stages of the production of the JDH!
The 2018 Journal of Dental Hygiene Editorial Review Board is listed on the following page along with our guest reviewers. Thank you again for your time, knowledge and commitment to the growth and advancement of the dental hygiene profession. All of us here at the Journal of Dental Hygiene look forward to working with each of you to continually improve OUR Journal!
