Instructions to authors
Scope and policy
1 SCOPE
The Journal of Applied Oral Science (JAOS) it is committed to publishing the scientific and technological advances achieved by the orofacial, dental and speech-language pathology and audiology communities, according to the quality indicators and peer-reviewed material, with the objective of assuring its acceptability within its knowledge fields. The primary goal of JAOS is to publish the outcomes of original research/clinical investigations in the field of Oral Sciences, with emphasis in dentistry, speech-language pathology and audiology, and related areas.
Submissions of case reports (including case series and clinical protocols) and short communication are no longer accepted by JAOS and review manuscripts (including systematic reviews) can only be submitted under the editor's invitation.
This Journal adopts Creative Commons license CC-BY:
"This license lets others distribute, remix, tweak, and build upon your work, even commercially, as long as they credit you for the original creation. This is the most accommodating of licenses offered. Recommended for maximum dissemination and use of licensed materials."
1.1 Publication fee
There is no fee to authors for submitting to JAOS nor Article Processing Charge (APC).
2 GENERAL GUIDELINES
2.1 Originality
The papers sent for publication must be original and the simultaneous submission to another journal, either natioEnal or international, is not allowed. JAOS shall retain the copyright of all papers published, including translations; future reproduction as a transcription are also allowed, provided the source is properly mentioned.
2.2 Acceptance of preprints
A preprint is defined as a manuscript ready for submission to a journal that is deposited on trusted preprint servers before or in parallel with submission to a journal. Submissions of papers previously deposited on these servers will be accepted, which will be duly evaluated for their recognition and quality by JAOS.
In case of acceptance and publication of the article in JAOS, the authors must update the registration status on the preprint server, informing the complete reference of the publication in the journal.
2.3 Data repository
JAOS requires the citation and referencing of data, program codes and any other underlying contents of the texts of the articles. Papers resulting from original research projects must be submitted with a footnote on the cover page about data availability, stating whether the dataset is publicly available or not, and how to access it.
To ensure full transparency of the data obtained, JAOS requires authors to declare that any piece of data that is not deposited in open access repositories must be made available to reviewers upon request.
To make these data available in accordance with SciELO’s policies, authors must fill in the Open Science Compliance form.
To ensure the quality and recognition of the data generated, JAOS recommends and follows the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable).
JAOS recommends the following data repositories:
SciELO Data - https://data.scielo.org/
Figshare - https://figshare.com/
Havard Dataverse - https://dataverse.harvard.edu/
Data Mendley - https://data.mendeley.com/
Zenodo - https://zenodo.org/
Repositório de dados científicos da USP - https://uspdigital.usp.br/repositorio/
2.4 JAOS will only accept submissions of manuscripts written in English. The English language should also be adopted in all documents during the procedures involving the articles. The content of the texts, quotations and references of the papers submitted and published are of the sole responsibility of the authors, not necessarily reflecting the opinion of JAOS’s Editor-in-Chief or Editorial Board.
2.5 JAOS has the right to submit all manuscripts to the Editorial Board, which is fully authorized to determine the appropriateness of their content to peer review (otherwise, manuscripts will receive an Immediate Rejection decision), and the subsequent decision regarding acceptance/rejection, or return them to the authors with suggestions and modifications to the text and/or for them to adapt it to the editorial standards of the journal. In this case, the manuscript will be reevaluated by the Editor-in-Chief and the Editorial Board.
2.6 The dates of receipt of the original article and its acceptance will appear when published in the JAOS.
2.7 JAOS is published exclusively in electronic format.
3 REFEREEING CRITERIA
3.1 Pre-evaluation: manuscripts will be appreciated by Editors-in-Chief and Associate Editors for their adequacy to the Journal’s scope, priority and potential publication and citation impact, degree of novelty and methodology. Manuscripts considered inadequate at this step will be rejected and returned to authors, while the manuscripts considered adequate will follow the regular peer review process.
3.2 Technical review: manuscripts approved in the pre-evaluation stage will be then evaluated for their compliance to the publication norms and presence of mandatory documents required for submission to JAOS. Manuscripts not in accordance with instructions will be returned to authors for adjustments before being reviewed by Associate Editors and referees.
3.3 Merit and content evaluation: papers approved by Associate Editors will be evaluated in their scientific merit and methods by at least two ad hoc referees from different institutions of that of the authors, besides the Editor-in-Chief.
3.3.1 As part of the evaluation process, all manuscripts will be submitted to analysis by a plagiarism software.
3.3.2 The Editor-in-Chief will decide on manuscript acceptance. When revision of the original is required, the manuscript will be returned to the corresponding author for modification. A revised version with modifications will be re-submitted by the authors, and that will be re-evaluated by the Editor-in-Chief, Editorial Board and ad hoc referees, if necessary.
3.4 After approval of the scientific merit, manuscripts will pass through a final review performed by a professional assigned by JAOS. If manuscripts are still considered inadequate, they will be returned to authors for revision.
3.5 Authors and referees will be kept anonymous during the review process.
4 Galley Proofs
4.1 Galley proofs of each article will be sent to the corresponding author by electronic mail in pdf format for final approval.
4.2 If necessary, authors will have 48 hours to make corrections and return the revised article.
4.3 The only corrections accepted will be minor spelling corrections and the verification of figures. Major corrections will cause the manuscript to undergo a new revision by referees and delay in its publication.
4.4 If the galley proof is not returned in 48 hours, the Editor-in-Chief will consider it the unchanged final version.
4.5 Inclusion of new authors is not allowed at this stage of the publication process.
4.6 It is the sole responsibility of the authors to verify the proper use of their citation names and affiliation in the manuscript.

3 ETHICAL PRINCIPLES AND REGISTRATION OF CLINICAL TRIALS
3.1 Experimental procedures in humans and animals
JAOS reassures the principles incorporated in the Helsinky Declaration and insists that all research involving human beings, in the event of publication in this journal, be conducted in conformity with such principles and others specified in the respective ethics committees of authors’ institution. In the case of experiments with animals, the same ethical principles must also be followed. When surgical procedures in animals were used, the authors should present, in the Methodology section, evidence that the dose of a proper substance was adequate to produce anesthesia during the entire surgical procedure. All experiments conducted in human or animals must accompany a description, in the Methodology section, that the study was approved by the respective Ethics Committee of authors’ affiliation and provide the number of the protocol approval.
3.1.1 Papers presenting experimentalstudies in human volunteers or in animals must contain the Ethical Committee approval of the reports as mandatory supplementary file.
3.1.2 Papers describing studies in animals must be submitted with the ARRIVE Checklist as mandatory supplementary file. The ARRIVE Checklist is available at
https://mc04.manuscriptcentral.com/societyimages/jaos-scielo/ARRIVEChecklist.docx
3.1.3 Ethics Committee certificate written in different languages from English, Spanish and Portuguese must be full translated into English.
3.2 Clinical Trial Registration
JAOS supports the policies of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) for the registration of clinical trials. The journal recognizes the importance of such initiatives for the registration and international publication of clinical studies with an open access. Therefore, JAOS will publish only those clinical trials that have previously received an identification number validated by the criteria established by the WHO and ICMJE. The WHO defines clinical trials as "any research study that prospectively assigns human participants or groups of humans to one or more health-related interventions to evaluate the effects on health outcomes. Interventions include but are not restricted to drugs, cells and other biological products, surgical procedures, radiologic procedures, devices, behavioral treatments, process-of-care changes, preventive care, etc".
3.2.1 Manuscripts presenting clinical trials in human volunteers must be submitted with the following mandatory supplementary files:
CONSORT 2010 checklist (http://www.consort-statement.org/);
registration number of the research in a database that meets the requirements of the WHO and the ICMJE
Suggestions: for Brazilian authors: http://www.ensaiosclinicos.gov.br/
Suggestions for Brazilian and non-Brazilian authors: http://www.controlled-trials.com/ (ISRCTN) or http://prsinfo.clinicaltrials.gov.
3.2.2 Survey-based studies must be submitted following the same instructions of the item above.
3.3 Systematic Reviews
Systematic Reviews SHOULD ONLY BE SUBMITTED AT THE INVITATION OF JAOS. And even in these cases, JAOS will only receive Systematic Reviews of any kind (Traditional, Overviews, Umbrella Reviews and Scoping Reviews) if they meet 2 mandatory requirements:
The prior publication of the research protocol of the Systematic Review in a scientific journal or the proof of the prior registration number of the Systematic Review protocol in a specific online platform for this purpose. Submissions with a registration date from after the date of submission of the article to JAOS will not be accepted. For registering the Systematic Review, the following platforms are suggested:
PROSPERO (https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero) International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews)
Open Science Framework (https://osf.io)
Joanna Briggs Institute (https://joannabriggs.org/)
Cochrane Library (https://www.cochranelibrary.com/)
Duly filled PRISMA Checklist (http://www.prisma-statement.org/), including all applicable extensions for particular cases.
3.4 The Editor-in-Chief and the Editorial Board reserve the right to refuse manuscripts that show no clear evidence that the methods used were not appropriate for experiments in humans or animals.
4 ANY FURTHER QUERIES SHALL BE SOLVED BY THE Editor-in-Chief AND EDITORIAL BOARD
