This issue of the eJACD, guest-edited by Carlos Smith, DDS, MDiv, FACD, delves into specific issues related to diversity, equity, and inclusion in oral healthcare. With insights into the ethics of DEI and portraits of people and the actions they take to create a more equitable world, the ACD invites readers into the conversation surrounding this timely topic. This is the first of two issues dedicated to DEI and will establish a recurring column devoted to the topic.
