About the journal
"ORCA has done more than any group to encourage a broad and balanced approach to caries prevention. For
that, future generations will be indebted to ORCA and its excellent journal,¡®Caries Research¡¯. " Basil G. Bibby, Eastman Dental Center
![](http://content.karger.com/ProdukteDB/images/global/pixel.gif) Caries Research?publishes epidemiological, clinical and laboratory studies in dental caries and related dental diseases. Some studies build on the considerable advances already made in caries prevention, e.g. through fluoride application and inhibition of intra-oral acid formation. Some aim to improve understanding of the increasingly important problem of dental erosion. Others monitor the changing pattern of caries in different populations, explore improved methods of diagnosis or evaluate methods of prevention or treatment. The broad coverage of current research has given the journal an international reputation as an indispensable source for both basic scientists and clinicians engaged in understanding and preventing dental disease.
The aim and scope of the journal ¡®Caries Research¡¯ is to promote research in dental caries and related matters through publication of such research, and to present critical evaluations of research findings. The journal will publish articles of original work and reviews on the processes underlying dental caries, and other dental hard tissue conditions, on factors promoting or retarding their progress, and on their etiology, diagnosis, epidemiology, prevention and management.
