CALL FOR REVIEW ARTICLES The January 1993 issue of Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, Oral Radiology, and Endodontics contained an Editorial by the Journal’s Editor in Chief, Larry J. Peterson, that called for a Review Article to appear in each issue. These Review Articles should be designed to review the current status of matters that are important to the practitioner. These articles should contain current developments, changing trends, as well as reaffirmation of current techniques and policies. Please consider submitting your article to appear as a Review Article. Information for authors appears in each issue of Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, Oral Radiology, and Endodontics. We look forward to hearing from you.
