JOMR-Journal of Oral & Maxillofacial Research
Scope & Guideline
Connecting Research and Practice in Oral Sciences
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Clinical Research on Surgical Techniques:
JOMR emphasizes clinical studies that explore the efficacy and outcomes of various surgical interventions in oral and maxillofacial surgery, including dental implants, bone augmentation, and treatment of cysts. - Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses:
A significant portion of the journal's content consists of systematic reviews and meta-analyses that synthesize existing research to provide comprehensive insights into treatment effectiveness and best practices. - Innovative Use of Imaging Techniques:
The journal showcases studies that utilize advanced imaging modalities, such as Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), to enhance surgical planning and diagnostic accuracy in oral and maxillofacial contexts. - Exploration of Biomaterials and Regenerative Techniques:
Research on new biomaterials and regenerative techniques, particularly in the context of dental implants and bone grafting, is a consistent focus, addressing both clinical applications and laboratory studies. - Investigation of Disease Mechanisms and Risk Factors:
Studies investigating the underlying mechanisms and risk factors for various oral and maxillofacial diseases, including genetic and environmental influences, are prevalent in the journal.
Trending and Emerging
- Integration of Digital Technologies:
There is a growing emphasis on the use of digital technologies, such as 3D imaging and virtual planning, in oral and maxillofacial surgery, indicating a trend towards enhancing precision and outcomes in surgical procedures. - Focus on Systemic Health and Oral Interconnections:
Recent publications increasingly explore the interconnections between systemic health (e.g., autoimmune diseases) and oral health, highlighting the importance of a holistic approach to patient care. - Research on Biologic and Biomimetic Materials:
Emerging interest in biologic and biomimetic materials for use in dental implants and bone augmentation reflects a trend towards improving biocompatibility and functional outcomes in oral surgeries. - Patient-Centered Outcomes and Quality of Life Studies:
There is a noticeable trend towards studying patient-reported outcomes and quality of life post-treatment, emphasizing the importance of patient perspectives in evaluating the success of dental and surgical interventions.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Oral Pathology Studies:
There has been a noticeable decrease in the publication of traditional studies focused solely on oral pathology without a clinical or surgical context, likely due to a shift towards more integrated and applied research. - Basic Science Research in Oral Biology:
Research focusing purely on fundamental biological processes, without direct application to clinical practices or surgical outcomes, seems to be less frequently represented in the recent issues of the journal. - Case Reports on Common Conditions:
The journal appears to be publishing fewer case reports on common dental conditions, possibly as the audience shifts towards more complex cases or novel treatment approaches.
