Frequently asked questions

Which Oral Surgery journals accepted papers fastest in 2025?

Among 32 Oral Surgery journals with enough dated articles in 2025, the shortest median time from submission to acceptance was 28 days (Journal of Pharmacy And Bioallied Sciences). The middle journal's median was 98 days. Speed is not a measure of quality; check scope, indexing and fees too.

How are these times measured?

From the submission and acceptance dates publishers deposit in PubMed, for accepted articles only. Each journal needs at least 50 dated articles in the year shown, and a table headed with a year contains only that year's figures.
