社區牙科和口腔流行病學的目的是為社區牙科提供科學依據的信息，旨在不斷擴大該領域的知識庫。因此，范圍很廣，從流行病學、行為科學和衛生服務研究的原始研究到方案規劃、實施和評估的方法學報告。歡迎有關各年齡組別人士的報告，包括有關老年牙科研究及為長者提供照顧的報告。

The aim of Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology is to serve as a forum for scientifically based information in community dentistry with the intention of continually expanding the knowledge base in the field. The scope is therefore broad ranging from original studies in epidemiology behavioral sciences and health services research through to methodological reports in program planning implementation and evaluation. Reports dealing with people of all age groups are welcome including those relating to research in geriatric dentistry and care provision for the elderly.
