About the Journal of Dentistry and Oral Implants
A peer-reviewed, open access platform advancing evidence-based practice in implant dentistry, prosthodontics, and oral rehabilitation through rigorous scholarship and global collaboration.
Implant dentistry evolves rapidly — from digital treatment planning and guided surgery protocols to novel biomaterials and regenerative techniques. JDOI serves as a responsive publishing partner for research teams, clinicians, and educators who need credible dissemination without sacrificing speed, clinical applicability, or ethical stewardship. Our editorial board comprises oral surgeons, prosthodontists, periodontists, dental biomaterial scientists, and clinical researchers who curate submissions that deliver translational value for diverse audiences.
Each manuscript undergoes tailored peer review. Clinical reviewers assess surgical protocols and patient outcomes, biomaterials specialists evaluate material characterization and biocompatibility data, and methodological experts scrutinize study design, statistical analyses, and reproducibility. Accepted articles include structured abstracts, high-resolution clinical images, and metadata optimization to support citation growth, educational use, and practice integration.
JDOI welcomes original research, systematic reviews, case series, technical reports, and clinical innovations that advance implant dentistry knowledge. We intentionally cultivate methodological and geographic diversity to reflect the global landscape of oral rehabilitation practice.
Surgical protocols, immediate placement techniques, guided surgery, bone augmentation, sinus lift procedures, and minimally invasive approaches.
Implant-supported prostheses, abutment design, fixed versus removable restorations, occlusal considerations, and esthetic outcomes.
Titanium alloys, zirconia ceramics, surface modifications, osseointegration mechanisms, biocompatibility testing, and material longevity.
Soft tissue management, peri-implantitis prevention and treatment, connective tissue grafting, and long-term maintenance protocols.
CAD/CAM technology, 3D treatment planning, surgical guides, intraoral scanning, digital workflow optimization, and virtual patient simulation.
Quality of life assessments, patient satisfaction studies, complication rates, survival analyses, and cost-effectiveness evaluations.
Full-arch rehabilitation, immediate loading protocols, medically compromised patients, revision surgery, and salvage procedures.
Bone grafting materials, guided bone regeneration, growth factors, tissue engineering, and stem cell applications in oral surgery.

Every submission undergoes preliminary editorial screening for scope alignment and ethical compliance before entering single-blind peer review. Authors may request double-blind review when anonymity is critical. Reviewers evaluate surgical technique descriptions, outcome measurement validity, statistical rigor, and clinical applicability while providing constructive feedback.
- Clinical Validity: Reviewers assess treatment protocols, patient selection criteria, follow-up duration, complication documentation, and outcome reporting completeness.
- Ethical Standards: Manuscripts must document informed consent, institutional approvals, and adherence to Helsinki Declaration or equivalent human research protections.
- Transparency Verification: Plagiarism screening via iThenticate, conflict of interest disclosure, funding statements, and case documentation requirements are mandatory.
- Rapid Communication: Editorial decisions include revision guidance and realistic timelines to respect authors' professional commitments.
JDOI's manuscript workflow supports busy clinicians and research teams through intuitive submission tools and responsive editorial support. Authors can submit via the online Manuscript Zone or email to [email protected]. Editorial staff acknowledges submissions within 48 hours and maintains clear communication throughout the review cycle.
- Review JDOI's scope and author instructions to ensure compliance with formatting, image quality, and reporting standards.
