**Course Description:** One of the critical aspects of the scientific process is the recording of new research findings in scientific journals to disseminate this information to the broader dental community. Access to these results contributes to building a field of knowledge within the dental profession and often provides insights that help others interpret their own experimental outcomes. Most journals do not accept research for publication without peer review by a group of experts in the same field, who recommend its publication in the journal. The *Scientific Editing for Dental Journals* course is designed to provide students early on with the fundamental principles necessary for scientific writing, editing, and peer review. It is expected to encourage students to demonstrate maturity in evaluating articles and research, as well as assessing important data that can increase publication opportunities. **Course Outcomes:** By the end of this course, students should be able to: 1.
