Orthodontics is the branch of dentistry concerned with diagnosing, preventing, and correcting malpositioned teeth and jaws. Beyond cosmetic improvements, orthodontic treatment plays a crucial role in oral function, reducing the risk of caries, periodontal disease, and temporomandibular joint disorders. Advances in clear aligner therapy, digital scanning, 3D printing, and accelerated orthodontic techniques have transformed patient care and expectations.
The Journal of Dentistry: Oral Health & Cosmesis invites submissions on the latest advancements in orthodontic materials, biomechanics, treatment planning technologies, and interdisciplinary care models. Research examining long-term outcomes, patient compliance factors, and innovations in early interceptive orthodontics are highly sought. We are particularly interested in contributions that address both the biological basis and technological innovations shaping the future of orthodontics.
