About the journal
The Journal of Prosthodontics promotes the advanced study and practice of prosthodontics, implant, esthetic, and reconstructive dentistry. It is the official journal of the American College of Prosthodontists, the American Dental Association-recognized voice of the Specialty of Prosthodontics. The journal publishes evidence-based original scientific articles presenting information that is relevant and useful to prosthodontists. Additionally, it publishes reports of innovative techniques, new instructional methodologies, and instructive clinical reports with an interdisciplinary flair. The journal is particularly focused on promoting the study and use of cutting-edge technology and positioning prosthodontists as the early-adopters of new technology in the dental community.

3) Via mail to the editorial office
Send four hard copies of the manuscript, along with a floppy disc/CD-ROM with a soft copy of the manuscript. Include four sets of any figures.
Please note: the Journal of Prosthodontics will no longer review the following manuscripts:
Those testing groups with sample sizes less than 10 per group, unless the manuscript also includes a power calculation to determine the small group's statistical validity.
2) 2D FEA studies, unless a strong case can be made that the study cannot be conducted via 3D FEA.
Title page (not necessary when submitting to the online submission site) - The title page should contain the following information in the order given: 1) Full title of manuscript. 2) Authors' full names. 3) Authors' institutional affiliations including city and country. 4) A running title, not exceeding 60 letters and spaces. 5) The name and address of the author responsible for correspondence about the manuscript.
If the work has previously been presented, the name, place, and date of meeting(s) must be given. If any financial support was received, the grant/contract number, sponsor name, and city, state, and country location must be supplied.
Abstract page - An abstract is required for all manuscripts and must precede the body of the manuscript. Abbreviations and references should not appear in the abstract.
Abstracts for the Basic Science, Clinical Research, and Academics and Education (research manuscripts) sections must conform to the Structured Abstract format. Structured Abstracts should not exceed 350 words and must contain the following information: (1) Purpose (2) Materials and Methods (3) Results (4) Conclusions
Abstracts for the Clinical Science, Academics and Education (program descriptions), Topics of Interest, Techniques and Technologies, and Clinical Reports sections need not be structured and should contain no more than 250 words.
Following the abstract and on the same page, there should be several words not appearing in the title of the manuscript to be titled: INDEX WORDS.
Please note: If submitting to the online site, you will be prompted to enter the abstract and index words separately.
Text - Research manuscripts should include the following sections: Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusion, Acknowledgements, and References. Experimental design should be clearly described (eg, randomized clinical trial, cohort study, case-control study, case series).
Other manuscripts should begin with an introductory paragraph of at least two to five sentences. The remainder of the manuscript should be divided into sections preceded by appropriate headings.
The Introduction will include the following: a description of the problem that inspired the study; a brief discussion of relevant published material that addressed the same problem or that documents methodology used in the study; and the goal of the study, the purpose statement or hypothesis.
The Materials and Methods section describes materials or subjects used and the methods selected to evaluate them, including information about the overall design, the nature of the sample studied, the type of interventions (or treatments) applied to the individual elements in the sample, and the principal outcome measure. Statistical methodology should be included in this section.
Please note: For research reports, we require a minimum of ten (10) specimens per experimental group UNLESS a power calculation has been performed by a statistician to demonstrate that the sample size is capable of providing statistical significance.
The Results section will be a clear statement of the findings and an evaluation of their validity based on the outcome of statistical tests.
The Discussion section presents the research in its broader context, describes its clinical implications, identifies limitations or problems that emerged during the course of the study, characterizes the larger significance of the findings, and articulates any further questions remaining to be answered on the subject.
The Conclusion section includes only a brief and succinct summary of the findings.
References - Number references consecutively in the order in which they are first mentioned in the text. Identify references in texts, tables, and legends by superscript Arabic numerals. Use the style of the examples below, which are based on the format used by the US National Library of Medicine in Index Medicus. For abbreviations of journals, consult the 'List of the Journals Indexed' printed annually in the January issue of Index Medicus.
For standard journal articles list all authors when three or fewer; when three or more, list first three authors and add et al.
Example:
Raghoebar GM, Brouwer TJ, Reintesma H, et al: Augmentation of the maxillary sinus floor of autogenous bone for the placement of endosseous implants: A preliminary report. J Oral Maxillofac Surg 1993;51:1198-1203
Chapter in book
Phoenix, RD: Denture base resins: Technical considerations and processing techniques, in Anusavice KJ (ed): Phillips' Science of Dental Materials, vol 1 (ed 10). Philadelphia, PA, Saunders, 1996, pp 237-271
Tables - Tables should be positioned following the references, not in the body of the manuscript. The tables should be numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals. Each table should be typed on a separate sheet. Include any necessary legends on the same page with the associated table.
Illustrations - All graphs, drawings, and photographs are considered figures and should be numbered in sequence with Arabic numerals. Each figure should have a legend and all legends should be typed together on a separate sheet and numbered correspondingly.
The inclusion of color illustrations is at the discretion of the editor. Details must be large enough to retain their clarity after reduction in size. Micrographs should be designed to be reproduced without reduction, and they should be dressed directly on the micrograph with a linear size scale, arrows, and other designators as needed.
When digital images are not available, four sets of illustrations should be submitted, identifying each with a label on the back indicating the figure number, author's name, and the top.
Figures submitted to the Journal of Prosthodontics
Photographs of People
The Journal of Prosthodontics follows current HIPAA guidelines for the protection of patient/subject privacy.
If an individual pictured in a digital image or photograph can be identified, his or her permission is required to publish the image. The corresponding author may submit a letter signed by the patient authorizing the Journal of Prosthodontics to publish the image/photo. Or, a form provided by the Journal of Prosthodontics (available by clicking the "Instructions and Forms" link in Manuscript Central) may be downloaded for your use. This approval must be received by the Editorial Office prior to final acceptance of the manuscript for publication. Otherwise, the image/photo must be altered such that the individual cannot be identified (black bars over eyes, etc).
Manipulation of Digital Photos
Authors should be aware that the Journal considers digital images to be data. Hence, digital images submitted should contain the same data as the original image captured. Any manipulation using graphical software should be identified in either the Methods section or the caption of the photo itself. Identification of manipulation should include both the name of the software and the techniques used to enhance or change the graphic in any way. Such a disclaimer ensures that the methods are repeatable and ensures the scientific integrity of the work.
No specific feature within an image may be enhanced, obscured, moved, removed, or introduced. The grouping of images from different SEMS, different teeth, or the mouths of different patients must be made explicit by the arrangement of the figure (i.e., by using dividing lines) and in the text of the figure legend. Adjustments of brightness, contrast, or color balance are acceptable if they are applied to the whole image and as long as they do not obscure, eliminate, or misrepresent any information present in the original, including backgrounds.
The removal of artifacts or any non-integral data held in the image is not allowed. For instance, removal of papillae or "cleaning up" of saliva bubbles is not allowed.
Cases of deliberate misrepresentation of data will result in rejection of a manuscript, or if the misrepresentation is discovered after a manuscript's acceptance, revocation of acceptance, and the incident will be reported to the corresponding author's home institution or funding agency.
Abbreviations, symbols and nomenclature - Authors are to use current prosthodontic nomenclature and are referred to the Glossary of Prosthodontic Terms (7th Edition) for accepted terminology. Generic names should be used for all drugs and equipment. When a trade name must be used, cite parenthetically the trade name and the name, city, state, and country of the manufacturer. Measurements should be in the metric system.
Permissions - Any illustrations or tables that have been published previously must be accompanied by a letter of permission from the copyright holder (usually the publisher). Illustrations or tables that have been adapted or modified must also be accompanied by letters of permission.
Copyright - Authors will be required to fill out a copyright assignment form prior to their articles being published. The form can be found here.
Conflict of Interest - Authors are required to disclose any possible conflicts of interest. These include financial (for example patent, ownership, stock ownership, consultancies, speaker's fee). Author's conflict of interest (or information specifying the absence of conflicts of interest) will be published under a separate heading entitled Disclosure.
Source of Funding - Authors are required to specify the source of funding for their research when submitting a paper. Suppliers of materials should be named and their location (town, state/county, country) included. The information will be disclosed in the published article.
Proofreading - The designated corresponding author is provided with proofs and is asked to proofread them for typesetting errors. Important changes in the data are allowed, but authors will be charged for excessive alterations in proof.
Offprints - Free access to the final PDF offprint of your article will be available via Author Services. Please sign up for Author Services if you would like to access your article PDF offprint upon publication of your paper, and enjoy the many other benefits the service offers.
