Aims and scope

Periodontal and Implant Research is an international, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to publishing high-quality research in the fields of periodontology and implantology. The Journal aims to create a platform for the dissemination of research relating to the diagnosis, management, and treatment of periodontal disease, and the planning and placement of implants in partially and fully edentulous patients. 

We welcome original research articles, reviews, systematic reviews, case reports, clinical case studies, comments, correspondence and brief-reports that address important topics in periodontology or implantology. The journal covers a broad range of topics, including but not limited to:

• The etiology, pathogenesis, and diagnosis of periodontal diseases
• The oral microbiome and the role of bacteria and host response in periodontal diseases
• The relationship between periodontal diseases and systemic health
• The treatment and management of periodontal diseases, including non-surgical and surgical approaches
• Implant dentistry in the restoration of oral function and aesthetics
• The development and application of dental implants, including implant design, material selection, and surgical and restorative protocols
• The use of regenerative techniques in periodontal and implant therapy
• The management of peri-implantitis and implant-related complications
• Digital technologies in periodontology and implantology
• The role of periodontology in public health

We prioritize original research that makes a significant contribution to the field and has the potential to influence future research, policy, or clinical practice. We welcome both qualitative and quantitative research, as well as interdisciplinary and comparative studies.
