Aims & Scope

The Journal of Clinical Orthodontics is a peer-reviewed professional publication, published monthly, with offices in Denver. JCO began publication in September 1967 as the Journal of Practical Orthodontics , changing to its current name in 1970. The journal focuses on the practical aspects of everyday orthodontic treatment techniques and practice management. JCO is the only orthodontic journal that focuses on the clinical, rather than the academic, side of the specialty. We are known as the clinician’s journal, with practical Pearls , innovative techniques and treatment methods, extensive overviews , revealing interviews , fascinating cases , timely management advice , and unequaled coverage of technology and industry trends, JCO provides useful information every month for the practicing orthodontist.
