Hoboken, NJ–September 7, 2017– (NYSE:JWa) (NYSE:JWb) announced today that it will publish the Journal of Periodontology and Clinical Advances in Periodontics on behalf of the American Academy of Periodontology (AAP), effective in 2018. This agreement will see the journals move to the Wiley Online Library platform and the conversion of Clinical Advances in Periodontics from its current e-only format to a full print publication distributed to all AAP members. Wiley and the AAP also announced that Pharmaceutical Media, Inc. (PMI) will provide full-service advertising sales support for both journals as well as other AAP content assets.
Periodontics is the branch of dentistry that specializes in treating the supporting tissues of the teeth and in the placement, maintenance, and treatment of dental implants. The Journal of Periodontology has published research advancing the science and practice of periodontics since 1930. Clinical Advances in Periodontics was launched in 2011 with a defined focus on the translation of scientific knowledge into clinical application.
“It is a great honor for Wiley to partner with the AAP,” said Shawn Morton, Journals Publishing Director for Health Sciences. “The science published in the Journal of Periodontology has never been more relevant and we see a bright future for Clinical Advances in Periodontics as a much more visible publication than is the case at present.”
