The undersigned author warrants that the article is original, is not under consideration for publication by another journal and has not been previously published. I sign for and accept responsibility for releasing this material on behalf of any and all coauthors."

- ARTICLE FILE
Articles must be original and written in clear English. The total article file must be entered as one document and cannot exceed a maximum of 3500 words. To determine the number of words in your document, go to the toolbar, click on tools and then click on word count.
Please enter only the following items in the article file:
An abstract - The purpose of the study, the design and analysis used, the important findings and their significance are to be summarized in an abstract of no more than 250 words. Abstracts should be in a single paragraph.
The manuscript text - Please remove all references to the author抯 identity or institutions as manuscripts are peer reviewed anonymously. An original article text will contain the following in order:
Introduction - This section states the purpose of the research and includes a summary of the literature describing the current state of the field.
Materials and Methods -This section states exactly what was done and should enable a reader to replicate the work. Materials or methods described elsewhere in the literature can be referenced without repeating these details. Identify teeth using the full name of the tooth or the FDI annotation. If human subjects or animals were involved in the work, this section must contain a statement that the rights of the human or animal subjects were protected and approval was obtained from an identified institutional review board, or its equivalent.
Results - This section should describe the objective findings without any comment on their significance or relative importance. Cite all tables and figures in the text.
Discussion - Only this section allows you freedom to interpret your data and to give your opinion of the value of your findings relative to previous work. All opinions must be limited to this section.
Conclusion - This section is a brief summary of what this study contributes. Do not summarize how the study was done.
References - References cited must be to published material. Number references consecutively in order of their appearance in the manuscript using superscript and Arabic numerals. References to "personal communication" are not acceptable. The style and punctuation of references should strictly conform to American Medical Association Manual of Style: A Guide for Authors and Editors, 9th ed (Baltimore, Md: Williams & Wilkins; 1998). Consult previous issues of The Angle Orthodontist for guidance (Available at http://www.angle.org ).
Legends - All figures must be numbered sequentially in the manuscript and a legend for each figure must appear in this section.
- TABLE FILES
Each table must be in WORD or EXCEL format and entered as a separate file. Each table must have its own legend accompanying it, numbered with Arabic numerals and sequentially referred to in the text. All abbreviations used in the table must be defined in a footnote. Use * P=.05; ** P=.01; *** P=.001; ****P=.0001 as needed. Tables cannot be in pictorial or image formats. Pictorial or image formats are figures and must be entered as figures.
- FIGURE FILES
Each figure must be of sufficient resolution for high quality publication usually in TIFF or EPS format. All images need to be at least 300 DPI when the figure is of the size to be used in publication.
If you enter a large image at 300 DPI and reduce it to a much smaller size for publication, this will increase the DPI and the image will be very heavy and slow to open electronically. If you enter a small image (such as a 35 mm picture) and plan to enlarge it for publication, it needs to be entered at more than 300 DPI since enlargement will only reduce the resolution.
Figures in WORD or presentation software such as PowerPoint, Corel Draw or Harvard Graphics do not contain sufficient resolution for publication and will not be accepted. Authors will be charged for publication of figures in color.
Manuscript Review
After you have entered your manuscript, you will receive automated responses from the system as the manuscript is processed. You may also follow the progress of your manuscript via the web site and your own password you created when you first entered the system.
Your manuscript will be peer reviewed and the reviewers comments will be sent to you. Please allow adequate time for this process. Our automated system is instantaneous, but the reviewers are busy people who donate their expertise and time. A manuscript returned to an author with suggested revisions must be returned within 3 months. Manuscripts returned after this time will be considered new submissions.
If your article is accepted for publication you will have an opportunity to make any revisions requested. After the revisions are complete, the editor will submit the manuscript to the printer and an electronic copy of your galley proof will be sent to you for corrections and final approval. Expect the figures in the galley proof to be of low resolution for ease of transmission. The final publication will contain your high quality figures.
Reprints
Reprints are available through special order for a nominal charge. Your galley copy will contain an order form for you to request any reprints desired. When you complete this application, return it directly to the printer.
