Abstract

The Academy of Dental Education was formed to encourage and provide an avenue for the undergraduate dental students to contribute to the professional literature and otherwise share their academic knowledge and skills with their fellow students. The membership to the Academy of Dental Education is open to all Professors of Dental and Medical Colleges who teach B.D.S. students. The Academy was started by the initiative of 9 Founder Fellows on April 07, 2013 with the Head office situated at Salem, Tamilnadu. The Academy of Dental Education is registered under the Tamilnadu Societies Registration Act 27 of 1975, with Registration No.87 / 2013 on 07/06/2013 at Salem. To meet one of the objectives, it was decided to publish a Journal exclusively for Dental students, titled "Journal of Academy of Dental Education", every six months to start with. The publication of the inaugural issue of the Journal has made this dream come true. The salient feature of the "Journal of Academy of Dental Education," is the fact that the first author, at the time of submission of the article, should be an undergraduate dental student.
