Submit Manuscript

A clear, efficient submission path for dentistry and oral implant research.

JDOI offers a structured submission process designed for clinical and translational dental research. Submissions are evaluated for scope fit, methodological rigor, and relevance to implant or oral health outcomes.

Use ManuscriptZone to submit and track your manuscript. A complete submission package helps reduce delays and improves review efficiency.

Any changes to the author list after submission must be approved by all authors and reviewed by the editorial office.

• Describe each author contribution clearly
• Identify the guarantor responsible for data integrity
• Disclose medical writers or editorial assistance
• Confirm that all authors meet authorship criteria

Structured abstracts should summarize objectives, methods, results, and conclusions. Keywords should reflect dental or implantology terminology to improve discoverability.

Select three to six keywords aligned with clinical practice and implant outcomes.

• Provide high resolution images and clear labels
• Include descriptive legends and units of measurement
• Ensure figures and tables are cited in the text
• Submit supplementary materials with concise descriptions
• De identify patient images and confirm consent

All human research must include ethics approval and informed consent. Clinical trials should include registration identifiers and report adverse events when relevant.

Animal studies must comply with institutional and national welfare standards.

• IRB or ethics committee approval details
• Consent procedures for human participants
• Trial registration numbers when applicable
• Conflict of interest disclosures

• CONSORT for randomized trials
• STROBE for observational studies

Clinical trials should include a registration identifier and describe protocol adherence. Protocol transparency supports ethical review and improves confidence in reported outcomes.

If a protocol was amended after registration, explain the changes and timing in the methods section.

• Provide registration numbers and registry names
• Describe primary and secondary outcomes clearly
• Note protocol deviations and justification if applicable

• Describe sample size calculations and power where relevant
• Report confidence intervals alongside p values
• Explain handling of missing data and outliers
• Specify statistical software and version

• Provide repository links or access pathways for datasets
• Include analytic code when feasible
• Describe any restrictions on data reuse
• Link protocols or trial registrations when available

Preprints are allowed when disclosed in the cover letter and cited in the manuscript. Prior conference presentations should also be noted.

This transparency supports ethical publishing and prevents duplicate reporting.
