The year 2021 marks the 60th anniversary of the foundation of the Korean Academy of Preventive Dentistry and Oral Health. In the oriental background, there is a belief that a new 60 years of history starts after the completion of 60 years. In other words, there is a brand new beginning every 60 years.The Korean Academy of Preventive Dentistry and Oral Health has set the 60th-anniversary slogan as “Past 60 Years of Oral Health, upcoming 100 Years of Dreaming Together’’ to look back on the past footprints and prepare for the future. We are putting in efforts to improve the nation’s oral health in the new era.Starting something new has a special meaning, but to pioneer something based on the past 60 years of history bestows measurable potential and power to move forward. This potential is what makes the 60th anniversary so remarkable.The role of journals in the development of an academy cannot be neglected. The Journal of Korean Academy of Oral Health (JKAOH) was first launched in 1967, and since then has been introducing various research achievements of the members. The journal website (www.jkaoh.org) provides easy access to the last 50 years’ worth of research articles with just one click.Studying preliminary research is one of the most crucial elements when brainstorming for a new project. If the study on preliminary research is not conducted adequately, it leads to a repetition of what others have already done, lacking originality. Therefore, making articles available through rich archives makes the research process easier and further accelerates the speed of academic development.Unlike in the past, sharing data and research articles is an active progress aided by many search engines. Nonetheless, a unique journal archive has its blend of research colors pursuing research direction that everyone can recognize.I am looking forward to every kind of research that the Korean Academy of Preventive Dentistry and Oral Health members will propose in the future. There will undoubtedly be new and innovative achievements contributing to the improvement of the nation’s oral health. I want to express my appreciation to the 60th anniversary of the Korean Academy of Preventive Dentistry and Oral Health and JKAOH, and I look forward to their developments in the future.
