Journal Title：Gerodontology

The ultimate aim of Gerodontology is to improve the quality of life and oral health of older people. The boundaries of most conventional dental specialties must be repeatedly crossed to provide optimal dental care for older people. In addition, management of other health problems impacts on dental care and clinicians need knowledge in these numerous overlapping areas. Bringing together these diverse topics within one journal serves clinicians who are seeking to read and to publish papers across a broad spectrum of specialties. This journal provides the juxtaposition of papers from traditional specialties but which share this patient-centred interest, providing a synergy that serves progress in the subject of gerodontology.

老年牙科的最終目標(biāo)是改善老年人的生活質(zhì)量和口腔健康。為了給老年人提供最佳的牙科護(hù)理，必須不斷跨越大多數(shù)傳統(tǒng)牙科專業(yè)的界限。此外，其他健康問題的管理也會(huì)影響牙科護(hù)理，臨床醫(yī)生需要了解這些眾多重疊領(lǐng)域的知識(shí)。將這些不同的主題匯集到一本期刊中，可以為尋求閱讀和發(fā)表廣泛專業(yè)論文的臨床醫(yī)生提供幫助。這本期刊將來自傳統(tǒng)專業(yè)的論文進(jìn)行了對(duì)比，但這些論文都以患者為中心，從而形成了一種協(xié)同效應(yīng)，有助于老年牙科學(xué)科的進(jìn)步。

Gerodontology創(chuàng)刊于1982年，由Blackwell Munksgaard出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋醫(yī)學(xué) - 老年醫(yī)學(xué)全領(lǐng)域，此刊是中等級(jí)別的SCI期刊，所以過審相對(duì)來講不是特別難，但是該刊專業(yè)認(rèn)可度不錯(cuò)，仍然是一本值得選擇的SCI期刊 。平均審稿速度 一般,3-6周 ，影響因子指數(shù)2，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預(yù)警名單，廣大學(xué)者值得一試。
