About the Journal
Overview
The Journal of Innovative Dental Sciences is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to the publication of scholarly research in dental sciences, oral health, and related clinical, laboratory, and interdisciplinary fields. The journal provides a platform for researchers, clinicians, academics, and other healthcare professionals to communicate scientific findings and developments relevant to dentistry and oral health.
The journal covers a broad range of areas including prosthodontics, periodontology, endodontics, oral and maxillofacial surgery, orthodontics, restorative dentistry, dental implants, oral pathology, forensic odontology, dental radiology, pediatric dentistry, preventive dentistry, and public health dentistry.
The journal also welcomes research in emerging and interdisciplinary areas such as digital dentistry, artificial intelligence and machine learning in dental research, nanodentistry, laser applications, advanced dental materials, biomaterials, regenerative approaches, oral microbiology, and other technologies relevant to dental science and clinical practice.
Research addressing the relationship between oral and systemic health is also within the journal's scope, including oral manifestations of systemic diseases, the oral microbiome, dental care considerations for patients with comorbidities, and other clinically relevant interactions between oral and general health.
The Journal of Innovative Dental Sciences welcomes original research articles, review articles, short communications, case reports and studies, technical perspectives, and other scholarly contributions appropriate to its scope. Manuscripts are considered in accordance with the journal's editorial policies, ethical requirements, author guidelines, and peer-review procedures.
The journal is committed to responsible scholarly communication, research integrity, transparent editorial practices, accurate publication metadata, and the responsible dissemination of research in dental and oral health sciences.
