Vol. 4 No. 1 (2026): International Journal of Dentistry Scientific
This issue presents a collection of original research articles, case reports, and a literature review that reflect current developments in oral pathology, dental biomaterials, preventive dentistry, and oral healthcare. Key topics include the antifungal and antibacterial potential of natural bioactive materials, such as snakehead fish meat extract and mackerel fish bone collagen hydrolysate, as well as the effects of classical and gamelan music on salivary flow rate.
Noteworthy contributions explore recent advances in graphene quantum dots for biomedical applications and the relationship between stunting and dental caries in children, highlighting the growing integration of nanotechnology and public health perspectives in dentistry. This issue also features several case reports describing the diagnosis and management of condensing osteitis, apical fenestration in a primary tooth, and buccal maxillary exostoses, providing valuable clinical insights into the management of a range of oral conditions.
Articles
The International Journal of Dentistry Scientific publishes research articles and case reports that are original, innovative, current and applicable in all areas of dental science with an interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approach. The scope includes all areas of dentistry, namely oral biology; science and technology of dental materials; oral and maxillofacial surgery; pedodontics; public dental health, epidemiology, and preventive dentistry; conservation dentistry, endodontics, and operative dentistry; periodontics; prosthodontics; orthodontics; oral medications; dental and maxillofacial radiology; as well as developments and dental science from other scientific approaches. The International Journal of Dentistry Scientific processes articles by conducting double-blind reviews to obtain scientific knowledge and applications that meet quality scientific principles.
The International Dentistry Scientific Journal is published by the Palembang Branch of the Indonesian Dental Association twice a year. The process for submitting article manuscripts is open throughout the year via the email system facility. The International Dentistry Scientific Journal is also affiliated with the Indonesian Dental Association (PDGI). The International Journal of Dentistry Scientific accommodates all works in the field of dental science, both in academic, research and practice, to become a reference for all fields of dental science.
