Guide for Authors
1. Aims and Scope
Turkish Endodontic Journal (TEJ) is the official scientific publication of Turkish Endodontic Society and open access, peer-reviewed international journal. TEJ is published three times per year (April, August, December). The authors are invited to submit original scientific articles, case reports, review articles regarding endodontology and dental traumatology. Letter to the Editor section is also available for authors to write a comment letter on a previously published article in the journal.
TEJ does not charge authors or authors’ institutions to submit, process or publish articles. There is no fee for extra pages or color images.
2. Editorial Policies and Ethical Considerations
The acceptance criteria for all articles are the article’s quality, originality and its significance to our readership. Except where otherwise stated, manuscripts are peer-reviewed by two anonymous reviewers and the Editor. The final decision is given by the Editorial Board, which reserves the right to refuse any material for publication.
Manuscripts should be written in a clear, concise, direct style. Editor-in-Chief or the Editorial Board reserves the right to change the format, grammar, or sentence structure of any part of the manuscript to comply with the guidelines to fit the standard format and journal style.
Authorship
TEJ strictly adheres to the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) standards to define the authorship qualifications. We recommend that an author should provide ALL of the following four criteria:
(1) Substantial contributions to the conception or design of the work; or the acquisition, analysis, or interpretation of data for the work;
(2) Drafting the work or revising it critically for important intellectual content;
(3) Final approval of the version to be published;
(4) Agreement to be accountable for all aspects of the work in ensuring that questions related to the accuracy or integrity of any part of the work are appropriately investigated and resolved.
Contributors who do not qualify as authors should be mentioned under ‘Acknowledgements’.
Authors should take collective responsibility for their work and the content of their publications. Corresponding author should submit Authors Contribution Form before proceeding with further submission and evaluation processes.
Declaration of Artificial Intelligence (AI)–Assisted Technology in Scientific Writing
At submission, authors should disclose whether they used artificial intelligence (AI)– assisted technologies (such as Large Language Models [LLMs], chatbots, or image creators) in the production
of submitted work. Authors who use such technology should describe, in both the Title Page and the submitted work, how they used it. Authors who used AI technology to conduct the study should describe its use in the methods section in sufficient detail to enable replication to the approach, including the tool used, version, and prompts where applicable. Chatbots (such as ChatGPT) and AI assisted technologies should
not be listed as an author or co-author nor cited because they cannot be responsible for the accuracy, integrity, and originality of the work, and these responsibilities are required for authorship.
Therefore, humans are responsible for any submitted material that included the use of AI-assisted technologies. Authors should carefully review and edit the result because AI can generate
authoritative-sounding output that can be incorrect, incomplete, or biased. Authors should be able to assert that there is no plagiarism in their paper, including in text and images produced by the AI.
Humans must ensure there is appropriate attribution of all quoted material, including full citations.
Disclosure Statement
Authors must declare any financial support or relationships that may pose a conflict of interest by disclosing any financial arrangements they have with a company whose product figures prominently in the submitted manuscript or with a company making a competing product, or any conflict relating to technology or methodology. The absence of any interest to disclose must also be stated.
Standards
All submissions should comply with the ICMJE Uniform requirements. Submission of checklists and flow charts of Preferred Reporting Items for Study Designs in Endodontics (PRIDE) requirements are mandatory before proceeding the article processing for case reports (PRICE), animal studies (PRIASE), randomised clinical trials (PRIRATE), laboratory studies (PRILE). Systematic reviews and meta analysis should comply with Transparent reporting of systematic reviews and meta-analysis (PRISMA). Observational studies should comply with Strengthening the reporting of observational studies in epidemiology (STROBE). Diagnostic accuracy studies should comply with Essential Items for Reporting Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (STARD). All relevant and required checklists and flow charts can be found at: https://turkishendodonticjournal.com/Forms

6. Publication Process after Acceptance
If your paper is accepted, the author identified as the formal corresponding author will receive an email prompting them to log in to Author Services and they will be required to complete a copyright license agreement on behalf of all authors of the paper.
Once the paper has been typeset, the corresponding author will receive an email alert containing proof to be checked and corrected before publication within seven days. It is, therefore, essential that a working email address is provided for the corresponding author. Proofs should be corrected carefully; responsibility for detecting errors lies with the author.
Articles will generally appear in the order in which they were accepted as publication; however, Editor-in-Chief and Editorial Board reserve the right to modify this schedule in the presence of critical scientific issues.
DOI number
Digital Object Identifier (DOI) number is a unique alphanumeric identifier assigned by a registration agency. Once it is assigned to an article, the DOI will never change; therefore, it is ideal for citing and linking electronic documents. Your article will be assigned a DOI number provided by the CrossRef registration agency.
Correction, Retraction & Removal
A formal correction will be issued in the journal by the Editor-in-Chief if only a small portion of otherwise reliable article is flawed in a way that does not severely affect the findings reported in it (such as mistakes in the spelling of a drug, miscalculation of a formula, mismatch between images and their captions or incorrect author list). Online articles will not be corrected directly. An erratum (for publishing error) or a corrigendum (for author error) will be published in the next issue of the journal.
Articles may be retracted by its authors or by the Editor-in-Chief under the advice of the scientific community. If authors are willing to retract an article before publication(accepted or under review), requests must be sent to the Editor-in-Chief from the corresponding author of the manuscript. This document must include the reason the article should be retracted and written confirmation (email, fax, letter) from all authors that they agree on the retraction. A formal retraction announcement written by the Editor-in-Chief will be published.
