Announcement
It has come to our attention that an entity called "Gavin Publishers" has launched an open access journal under the name “Journal of Orthodontics and Craniofacial Research.” Please note that this publication has no connection with the Wiley-owned journal (ISSN 1601-6343).
Nevertheless, Gavin Publishers is actively targeting Wiley contributors to submit material to their journal. Authors and contributors should be careful to submit articles only to the Wiley journal Orthodontics & Craniofacial Research at https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/ocr. Authors who submit manuscripts to sites outside the official Wiley submission workflow are likely to lose both their money and their manuscript, which can then not be published in the official Wiley journal.
Please also refer to the Think Check Submit site at https://thinkchecksubmit.org/ for additional information on submitting articles to an appropriate journal for your research.
The editors and publishers at Wiley would also be interested to have you forward examples of spam if you have been targeted by Gavin Publishers.
