Editorial

It is with great excitement that we release Volume 4, Issue 1 of The Dental Journal of the Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences (DJIGIMS). Each new edition is not just a collection of research and articles—it is a reflection of the dedication, curiosity, and hard work of Post Graduate Institute of Dental Education & Research (PGIDER). This issue brings together insightful studies, clinical case reports, and reviews that highlight the evolving landscape of dentistry and its impact on both practitioners and patients. As dental sciences continue to advance, our goal remains the same: to provide a platform where knowledge is shared, ideas are explored, and innovation is encouraged. We hope this issue serves as a valuable resource for researchers, academicians, and students, helping them stay informed and inspired in their journey toward excellence in dental care. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Director of Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences (IGIMS), Chairman DJIGIMS, and all heads of Department of PGIDER for their constant support and encouragement. A special thanks to the Journal Committee, Editorial and Advisory Boards, and our esteemed contributors, whose dedication makes this journal possible. It is their passion for research and academic excellence that keeps DJIGIMS growing with each edition. As we share this issue with you, we hope it sparks new ideas, fosters meaningful discussions, and continues to be a source of inspiration in the field of dentistry. Thank you for being part of this journey—we look forward to many more milestones ahead!
