About the journal
With the change in FDI Individual Membership and the demise of the publication FDI World, the IDJ will become the main publication of the FDI itself and will therefore have important functions to meet as well as continuing as a fully peer-reviewed, scientific journal.
- Include a new, News and views section, informing members of news from the FDI and around the world of dentistry in a similar format to FDI World
- Feature a new, innovative section on practical, informative articles aimed at clinicians and illustrated in full colour
- Include details of forthcoming FDI Annual World Dental Congresses
- Continue to publish peer-reviewed, scientific articles relevant to international dentistry in the recently re-launched and popular style
- Be published six times a year
- Offer excellent subscriptions to existing IDJ subscribers and to former FDI Individual Members and to individual members of national member associations
Instructions to Authors
Instructions to Authors
The policy of the International Dental Journal is to publish a
selection of the transactions of the FDI Annual World
Dental Congresses and any other suitable manuscript with
a content that is of international interest and significance.
Authors are strongly advised to consult recent issues to
confirm details of presentation.
Manuscripts. Should be submitted in triplicate in English,
typed in double-spacing on one side of A4 paper with a
left-hand margin of not less than 40mm. The title page
should include the name(s) of the author(s) and address
for correspondence. Manuscripts prepared for lectures are
rarely suitable for publication and should be appropriately
rewritten. Each manuscript should include a summary not
exceeding 200 words. Except for review articles, this must
be in the form of a Structured Abstract to include (where
relevant) the following headings: aim(s)/objective(s), design,
setting, participants, interventions/methods, main outcome
measures, results and conclusions.
Submissions for the ‘Practice’ section. These articles
should conform with these Instructions but should be no
more than 3,000 words in length, be well illustrated and
relevant to current clinical practice.
Submissions by email. Papers and articles for submission
may be sent as Word file attachments by email.
Figures may also be sent by appropriate file attachment
but hard copy by post may also be requested. Files must
be virus checked before sending but if discovered to be
infected may be deleted without opening and the sender
informed.
Editorial process. Every submission will be acknowledged,
by email where possible, and be peer reviewed/ refereed.
The aim is to reply to the author(s) with a decision no longer
than two months from the date of acknowledgement.
However, use of international referees can cause a longer
period and authors’ understanding is requested in such
circumstances.
Products, Units Abbreviations and Symbols. Where
possible all products (drugs, dental materials, instruments
and equipment etc.) should be referred to by generic names.
Otherwise product names must bear an initial capital letter
and their manufacturer or supplier should he indicated in
parentheses. Units used must conform to the Système
International d’Unités (SI). Generally accepted abbreviations
and symbols may be used provided that the terms appear
in full together with the abbreviation when first used in the
text e.g. fluoride (F), decayed, missing and filled surfaces
(DMFS), and thereafter F, DMFS. The two digit tooth notation
system of the FDI must be used (see Int Dent J 1971
21: 104). Bacteria must be described by their generic and
species names – both in full on the first occasion, subsequently
the generic name may be abbreviated.
Illustrations. Photographs, photomicrographs, line drawings
and graphs may be included with the manuscript. Drawings
and graphs should be supplied as glossy photographic
prints, high-resolution laser prints or electronic files.
Submitted illustrations must be numbered consecutively on
the reverse with Arabic numerals and their orientation indicated.
Lettering and symbols should be of sufficient size to
permit reproduction without loss of detail. For each figure a
concise legend must be provided, typed in consecutive order
on a separate sheet of paper.
Tables. Each table should be typed on a separate sheet,
numbered and accompanied by a brief, explanatory
caption. Vertical and horizontal rules should not be used.
References. The Vancouver style should be used. References
should be numbered in the order in which they
appear in the text, and these numbers should be inserted
as superscript each time the author is cited (e.g. Williams24
reported similar findings...). At the end of the manuscript
the full list of references should give the names and initials
of all authors unless there are more than three, when only
the first three should be given followed by et al. The
authors’ names are followed by the title of the article: the
title of the journal abbreviated according to the style of the
Index Medicus and Index to Dental Literature (see ‘List of
Journals Indexed’ published annually in the January issue):
the year of publication: the volume number: and the first
and last page numbers in full. Titles of books should be
followed by the place of publication, the publisher, and the
year.
