Aims & Scope
The Future Dental Journal is an open access double-blinded peer-reviewed journal for the dental community, published by the Arab Journals Platform on behalf of the Future University in Egypt. We aim to provide an open access platform for the dental community conveying reliable knowledge, dental innovations and relevant evidence-based clinical practice across the different disciplines of dentistry.
The Future Dental Journal welcomes original research, review articles, clinical case studies, clinical trials and commentaries.
• Original Research: presentation of new research; full-length manuscript with strong rationale, clear purpose, well-designed method, quantitative and/or qualitative results, scholarly discussion, and relevant references.
• Review: systematic reviews following standard guidelines; may include critical comparisons and meta-analysis of previous work.
• Clinical Perspective: narrative viewpoint based on expert clinical opinion and experience, or descriptions of clinical programs and innovative clinical activities.
• Tutorial: educational exposition covering recent literature on topics of interest to the dental community
• Case Report or Case Series: report of one or more cases that illustrate unique or interesting aspects of diagnosis, oral disease, clinical techniques; case reports should follow case report guidelines (https://www.care-statement.org).
• Commentary: brief narrative that spotlights current issues of direct interest to the dental therapy and research community. Commentaries are typically extensions or retractions to content published in original research or viewpoint articles. A commentary critiquing work published in the Future Dental Journal may be referred to the authors of the original article for a response, which may be published along with the commentary.
