The conclusions of the 2
ndMeeting of the
Brazilian Oral Health Panel
T
he “Brazilian Oral Research” (BOR) Journal publishes articles on ba-sic and on applied research, as well as a supplement featuring the An-nals of the SBPqO Anual Meeting. Only occasionally does the BOR put out special issues of broader interest to the dental community, with the support of corporate partners from the Dentistry marketplace.The present special issue was based on the 2nd Meeting of the
Bra-zilian Oral Health Panel, where several BraBra-zilian researchers discussed important topics pertaining to oral health problems affecting the Brazil-ian population. The result of this meeting was a collection of up-to-date literature review articles covering the principal points discussed at the panel.
Although counting on the inancial support of a corporation, all of the articles were duly submitted to at least two ad hoc reviewers and were accepted only after all of the comments and suggestions were fully addressed.
Based on the positive reader response to the special issue published previously (Vol. 21, Special Issue 1, April 2007), the BOR proudly presents this new special issue featuring articles resulting from the 2nd
Meeting of the Brazilian Oral Health Panel. We on the Journal’s Edi-torial Board greatly value the opinion of our readers and welcome any comment or suggestion in regard to the publication of special issues, so that we may plan future releases of this kind. Our email address is [email protected].
We also wish to thank the contribution and participation of all the members of the 2nd Meeting of the Brazilian Oral Health Panel.
