Abstract: On behalf of the Indian Association of Public Health Dentistry, I warmly welcome all. This year has witnessed a significant increase in manuscript submissions, reflecting diverse research areas and study designs. The enthusiasm of our contributors is commendable, and we look forward to sustaining this momentum in the coming year. As we transition into 2025, it is essential to reflect on 2024’s milestones, including the successful academic workshops, symposiums, and the 1st International Conference of IAPHD in Bangkok. These events have enriched our knowledge and strengthened professional bonds. Moving forward, we remain dedicated to fostering innovation, advancing research, and broadening the impact of public health dentistry. We are pleased to report that our journal’s impact factor has risen to 0.3, as per the 2023 Journal Citation Report, reflecting the quality of research and dedication of our contributors and editorial team. I sincerely thank the editorial board, reviewers, authors, office bearers, the Medknow team, and readers for their invaluable support. Together, let us strive for academic excellence and advance public health dentistry in 2025. Let us carry forward the successes of 2024, embracing opportunities and challenges alike. The dedication of our members, authors, reviewers, and readers is pivotal to upholding the journal’s standards and advancing the mission of IAPHD. Best wishes for continued success and a prosperous year ahead. Financial support and sponsorship Nil. Conflicts of interest There are no conflicts of interest.
