Dental Health: Current Research is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal and aims to publish the most complete and reliable source of information on the discoveries and current developments in the mode of original articles, review articles, case reports, short communications, etc. in all areas of Dental Health: Current Research.

The Journal focuses on recent research developments in Dental Health for treating dental problems through different analytical procedures, tests and techniques.

Dental Health: Current Research focuses on the topics include:

  • Dental Anatomy
  • Dental Epidemiology
  • Dental Health
  • Oral Care
  • Dental Hygiene
  • Dental Implant
  • Dental Trauma
  • Dental Surgery
  • Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Dental Treatment 

2016 Journal Impact Factor is the ratio of the number of citations achieved in the year 2016 based on Google Search and Google Scholar Citations to the total number of articles published in the last two years i.e. in 2014 and 2015. Impact factor measures the quality of the Journal.

If ‘X’ is the total number of articles published in 2014 and 2015, and ‘Y’ is the number of times these articles were cited in indexed journals during 2016 then, impact factor = Y/X.

Review processing is performed by the Editorial Board members of Dental Health: Current Research or outside experts; at least two independent reviewer’s approval followed by editor approval is required for acceptance of any citable manuscript. Authors may submit manuscripts and track their progress through the system, hopefully to publication. Reviewers can download manuscripts and submit their opinions to the editor. Editors can manage the whole submission/review/revise/publish process.

Orthodontics 

Orthodontics is the diagnosis, prevention, interception, and correction of irregular teeth, as by means of braces. It helps teeth to grow straight.It is also known as dentofacial orthopedics. An orthodontist is a specialist who has undergone special training in a dental school or college after they have graduated in dentistry. The benefits of orthodontic treatment include a healthier mouth, a more pleasing appearance, and teeth that are more likely to last a lifetime.

Dental Pharmacology 

It is the branch of pharmacology which relates with the study of drugs for the treatment of dentaldiseases. It includes Oral Hygiene, Obtudents, Mummifying agents, Drugs used for cavity toilets and periodontal disease. The common drugs are antibiotics, analgesics, anti-inflammatory drugs and anti-periodontitis agents. Dentifrices are therapeutic aids meant for cleaning the teeth with the help of a toothbrush.

Oral Physiology

It is the science which deals with the function of oral structures. Mainly it concentrates on the research on biological processes in the oral and maxillofacial regions. It gives idea about orfacial dysfunction which is useful for diagnosis and treatment of disease. It also gives understanding about physiological functions, such as mastication, oral sensation including gustatory sensation, function of saliva and vocalization.

Oral Pathology & Microbiology

It is the branch of dentistry which deals with the diseases of oral and Para oral structures and provides an understanding of which is essential for diagnosis and for the development of rational treatment. Oral microbiology is the study of the microorganisms of the oral cavity and their interactions between oral microorganisms or with the host.

Dental Surgery

The term dental surgery includes many different procedures: Dental Implant Surgery, Cosmetic Dental Surgery, Removal of Impacted Teeth, Corrective Jaw Surgery, Treatment of Facial Injuries & Correction of Deformities. Dental surgery is surgery of the teeth and jaw bones. It is a combination of both surgery and dental science. More frequent cleaning and examination may be necessary during the treatment of many different dental/oral disorders or due to recent surgical procedures such as dental implants.

Dental Orthopaedics

Dental Orthopedics was the first specialty created in the field of dentistry. It is the branch of dentistry which deals with the diagnosis, prevention and correction of malocclusion, as well as neuromuscular and skeletal abnormalities of the developing or mature orofacial structures. For this treatment, metal wires are inserted into braces, which can be made from stainless steel or a more aesthetic ceramic material.

Oral Medicine & Radiology 

Oral medicine is the discipline in the dentistry which is used for diagnosis and non-surgical treatment of oral cavity and oral manifestations of systemic disease. Oral radiology is the branch of dentistry which dealing with use of x-rays, radioactive substances, and other forms of radiant energy in diagnosis and treatment of disease.

Hospital Dentistry

Hospital dentistry is the dentistry in which dentists provides routine dental care for phobic, developmentally disabled and medically complex patients. It includes the dental care, including comprehensive treatment, of long-stay hospital in patients. It is the practice of dentistry in a hospital where the dentist is an integral part of the comprehensive health care team.

Dental Implant

A dental implant is a surgical component which interfaces with the bone of the jaw or skull to support a dental prosthesis. It is an artificial tooth root that is placed into jaw to hold a replacement tooth or bridge. It may be an option for people who have lost a tooth or teeth due to periodontaldisease, an injury, or some other reason.

Periodontology

It is a type of dentistry which deals with the supporting structures of teeth and diseases and condition which affect them. It includes the placement of dental implants. It is also used for the treatment of oral inflammation. Periodontal diseases lead to destruction of the supporting bone around natural teeth. These diseases lead to alveolar bone loss and tooth loss and, to date, continue to be the leading cause of tooth loss in adults.

Dental Hygiene & Care 

Dental hygiene is the process of keeping the mouth, teeth, gums clean and healthy by regular brushing and flossing and preventive dental care to prevent teeth decay and other diseases. It is also known as oral hygiene. It is used to prevent the build-up of plaque, the sticky film of bacteria and food that forms on the teeth.

Geriatric Dentistry

It is also known as gerodontists and deals with the dental problems especially for older peoples. It involves diagnosis, treatment and prevention of problems related to aging and age related diseases. The dental diseases related to elderly are root caries, attrition, periodontal disease, missing teeth because of earlier neglect, poor quality of alveolar ridges, ill-fitting dentures, mucosal lesions, oral ulceration, dry mouth, oral cancers, and rampant caries.
