The magazine has been improving its accessibility and national and international visibility, based on the benefits provided by the new information and communication technologies, which has led readers of all professions to read it, this demonstrates the rigor in its development and the quality of the works exhibited therein. The content of this edition is composed of current topics that range from assessments for the comprehensive understanding of stomatology, historical aspects of oral health care and the ethics that their procedures require, the approach to oral health morbidity, within this, cancer, the health problem that occupies the first place in mortality in Cuba, to clear definitions regarding the need for integration of stomatological services as a way of development in care processes. The social determination of oral health, and the role of health promotion and community participation and intersectoriality are treated in a revealing manner, which makes it possible to have a journal that integrates in a balanced manner the field of public health in all its forms.
