All articles submitted to the Ahram Canadian Dental Journal are evaluated by at least two independent reviewers who are qualified experts in the subject field.

The reviewing process in the Ahram Canadian Dental Journal is double-blind. This means that both the authors' and reviewers' identities are concealed from the other party throughout the reviewing process. That is why authors are required to submit the title page containing their identities in a separate file.

• Once a manuscript is confirmed, by the Editor-in-Chief who will assign it to an appropriate Editor.
• If the Editor determines that the manuscript is not of sufficient quality and/or does not fall within the scope of the journal, he will reject the manuscript.
• If the Editor confirmed the manuscript, he will send it to two reviewers to evaluate the quality of the presented work and its merit for publication.
• The reviewers will submit their reports on the manuscript along with their recommendations of one of the following actions, to the Editor:
• Accept unaltered
• Accept after minor changes
• Accept after major changes
• Reject

After careful consideration of the submitted reviews, the Editor will make one of the following recommendations:

Accept unaltered: The manuscript to be accepted for publication.

Accept after minor changes: The author(s) are notified to submit, within a time period a revised copy of their manuscript with the required changes suggested by the reviewers and/or the Editor. The author(s) should also submit a letter detailing all changes made to the manuscript. The Editor will review the revised manuscript.

Accept after major changes: The author(s) are notified to submit, within a time period a revised copy of their manuscript with the required changes requested by the reviewers and/or the Editor. The author(s) should also submit a letter detailing all changes made to the manuscript.

• Reject:  If the article is rejected by one of the reviewers, it will be sent to a third reviewer.

Immediate irreversible rejection. This also will be the decision if two reviewers recommend rejecting the manuscript.

The Editor-in-Chief will make the final decision on submitted manuscripts in coordination with the assigned Editor.
