EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORAL SCIENCES
Scope & Guideline
Connecting researchers and clinicians for better oral care.
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Oral Biology and Pathology:
Research in this area explores the biological processes and pathological conditions affecting the oral cavity, including studies on the molecular mechanisms of diseases such as periodontitis and oral cancer. - Dental Materials and Biomaterials:
The journal features studies on the development, characterization, and application of dental materials, including composites, adhesives, and bioactive materials, focusing on their mechanical properties and biocompatibility. - Clinical Dentistry and Therapeutics:
This scope includes clinical studies evaluating the efficacy of various dental treatments and interventions, such as restorative procedures, orthodontics, and periodontics, often supported by systematic reviews and meta-analyses. - Public Health and Epidemiology:
Research addressing oral health disparities, the impact of socio-economic factors on dental health, and community-based interventions is a significant focus, reflecting the journal's commitment to improving public oral health. - Innovative Techniques and Technologies:
The journal promotes the use of advanced technologies and methodologies, such as 3D printing, finite element analysis, and molecular techniques, to enhance dental research and clinical practice.
Trending and Emerging
- Interdisciplinary Approaches to Oral Health:
Research that combines insights from different fields, such as psychology, sociology, and epidemiology, to address complex oral health issues is on the rise, indicating a move towards holistic patient care. - Molecular and Genetic Studies:
There is an increasing focus on the molecular and genetic underpinnings of oral diseases, including genetic predispositions to conditions like caries and periodontal disease, as well as the role of microbiomes in oral health. - Innovations in Dental Technologies:
Emerging technologies such as 3D printing, digital dentistry, and advanced imaging techniques are becoming more prominent, reflecting a trend towards precision and personalized dental care. - Sustainability and Eco-Friendly Practices:
Research that addresses the environmental impact of dental practices and materials is gaining traction, aligning with global sustainability efforts and the need for eco-conscious healthcare solutions. - Mental Health and Oral Health Interconnections:
Increasing recognition of the relationship between mental health and oral health, including studies on dental anxiety and its psychological correlates, is becoming a significant area of focus.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Dental Materials Studies:
Research focused primarily on conventional dental materials, such as amalgams, has decreased as interest shifts towards more innovative and biocompatible materials. - Basic Histological Studies:
The frequency of purely histological studies has waned, likely due to the growing emphasis on molecular biology and advanced imaging techniques that provide more comprehensive insights into oral health issues. - Epidemiological Studies without Interventional Focus:
There is a noticeable decline in purely observational epidemiological studies that do not incorporate interventional components or address specific strategies for improving oral health outcomes. - Single-Factor Analyses in Clinical Research:
The journal has seen a reduction in studies that analyze the impact of a single factor on dental health, as more complex, multifactorial studies are preferred to reflect the realities of oral health.
