● The 4th International Dental Congress, organized by Necmettin Erbakan University Faculty of Dentistry, will be held between October 1-4. Participants are offered 4 different publication opportunities for oral presentations that are deemed suitable for full text:

1. NEU Dental Journal (National peer-reviewed journal indexed by TR Dizin and ULAKBİM)
2. NEU Press Publishing House (International publishing house status; publication opportunity as a book chapter)
3. International Dental Research (International journal indexed in ULAKBİM and EBSCO databases) (Case reports and surveys are not accepted for publication)
4. Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE)
(International journal indexed in SCIE and included in the Q3 quartile within Web of Science)
Thanks to these comprehensive publication options, our congress offers participants the opportunity to make their scientific work visible both nationally and internationally.

The evaluation committee can change the sub-title of the paper.
Accepted papers cannot be withdrawn after the acceptance letter is sent. Posters accepted for presentation but not (cannot) be presented will be announced on the congress and association web sites at the end of the congress with the title of "not submitted papers".

REQUIREMENTS FOR FULL TEXT
· Since the International Dental Research journal is indexed both internationally and in the ULAKBIM TR Index, the journal's publication policy requires that the scientific quality of the full-text papers be high.
· Some of the features of these requirements are as follows.
o Academic native speaker English editing of full-text papers in English in a professional and certified company
o Proofreading
o Determining the similarity rate with the iThenticate program (This rate should not exceed 20%.)
o Layout of accepted articles and galley proof service
o Providing copyediting and layout editing services
o Additional time will be given to the authors to check the papers by the statistics editor and to correct the wrong statistics.
o Making it ready for publication by giving a DOI number
o After the abstract is accepted, an oral presentation must be given. After the congress, the full texts will be uploaded to the selected journal system and evaluated by the peer review board.
· In order to meet all these requirements, in addition to the congress registration, $200 or foreign currency will be requested for full texts not exceeding 1500 words. The requested amount is not the Printing Fee or the Article Processing Charge, but will be paid to the foreign professional firm for the provision of the above mentioned services as the cost of these services.
· Authors must upload their full-text papers to the system together with their certificates if they have had their academic editing done in English by a professional firm (Elsevier, American Expert, Textcheck) specified on the journal page. In this case, in addition to the congress registration for other services, $150 or foreign currency will be requested for services other than editing.
-You can access detailed rules and templates for full text on the journal websites. In addition, citations to full-text articles published in IDR will be made in the future through the “Journal of Medical and Dental Investigations” JOMDI journal (www.jomdi.org) published under the same publisher, maximizing the citation potential of authors' articles.

Online submission of papers via Nutuva Abstract Management System is the only valid form of submission. Papers sent via e-mail and post regardless of the system will not be accepted. During the online application form filling process, the researcher will be directed step by step automatically. For security reasons, a printout of the completed abstract form should be taken and kept.
