“…Interestingly, regarding the citations attained, the scientific publications from the United States attained the highest number of citations, despite publishing fewer papers comparatively. These outcomes are consistent with the earlier bibliometric analysis, which identified the significant role of the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research in the United States, which provides finance for research (Alam et al, 2021;Qasim et al, 2021).…”

ObjectivesThis bibliometric analysis aimed to evaluate the leading nations, authors, journals, institutes, highly cited publications, and most commonly used keywords concerning scientific publications based on root and root canal morphology using the CBCT.Material and MethodsFor this bibliometric analysis, an extensive search was carried out on September 25, 2023 using the Scopus database. Pertinent articles in the field were scrutinized after applying inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were evaluated using Vosviewer and Microsoft Excel.ResultsA literature search revealed the initiation of scientific publication in 2008. Significant contributions made by Saudi Arabia, India, and China concerning the number of publications were seen. Similarly, Jazan University from SA was recognized as the leading institute. The Journal of Endodontics was the leading journal, while authors JNR Martins and G Gambarini produced the highest number of papers.ConclusionsThis bibliometric analysis demonstrated that scientific publications have increased tremendously since 2008. Significant contributions have been made by developing and developed nations. The Journal of Endodontics and Jazan University have been identified as the leading journal and institute.

“…The United States had the highest number of citations, followed by the United Kingdom. This could be because these countries, particularly the United States, have a well-developed National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), which is generally responsible for providing research funds to both the public and private sectors ( 13 ).…”

Background Denture stomatitis is a clinical condition that affects people who wear removable maxillary dentures. It causes redness, soreness, and erythema and ultimately affects the general condition of the patient. The objective of this study was to analyze the leading countries, journals, organizations, and authors and the frequently used keywords associated with denture stomatitis. Material and Methods A bibliometric analysis of publications indexed in the Scopus database was conducted, and the article titles, abstracts, and keywords were analyzed using the VOSviewer software. Denture stomatitis-related publications from 1960 to 2021 were collected. This study included only research papers published in English with “article” as the paper type and dentistry as the subject area. Results Data from a total of 461 articles and 10 different journals were obtained. The papers were published in 64 different countries. Brazil and the United States of America were the top contributing countries, and the University of Sydney was the leading organization. Papers published in the Journal of Oral Rehabilitation received the highest number of citations, while author Gordon Ramage from the University of Glasgow received the highest number of citations. Conclusions The bibliometric analysis revealed that the number of denture stomatitis-related publications indexed in the Scopus database is increasing globally. Since 2007, there has been an increase in research interest regarding denture stomatitis, with more publications from several countries expected to be published in different journals. Key words: Bibliometric analysis, denture, candida, VOSviewer, maxilla.

“…The treatment philosophy of minimally invasive dentistry prioritizes preserving a healthy tooth structure [Cheng et al, 2022]. As a result, non-invasive preventive techniques are preferred as they are effective and clinically suitable [Alam et al, 2021]. Fluoride varnish has been demonstrated to be effective in non-invasive treatments by decreasing demineralization and enhancing enamel remineralization [Marinho et al, 2013].…”

A highly cited paper is a milestone and might impact research and clinical practice. The present study analyzed the 100 most-cited papers on fluoride varnishes in dentistry. A search was performed on July 20, 2022, on the Web of Science Core Collection. Two independent researchers extracted the following data: number and citation density; year and journal of publication; study design; main topic; authors; institutions; keywords; countries and continents. Scopus and Google Scholar were consulted to compare the number of citations. Bibliometric networks were generated in the VOSviewer. The number of citations ranged from 36 to 351, and thirteen papers were cited more than 100 times. The papers were published between 1977 and 2018, most of which were published after 2008 (48%). The most prevalent journal was Caries Research (17%). Intervention studies were the most common design (41%). The most discussed topics were dental caries prevention (48%) and dental remineralization (31%). Europe was the continent with the highest number of publications (46%), mainly from Sweden (14%), and Umea University had the most substantial number of studies (8%). Petersson LG was the author with more papers in the top 100 (6%). The most used keywords were “dental caries” (34%) and “fluoride varnish” (31%). It can be concluded that the top 100 cited papers on fluoride varnish primarily originated from Europe, with the majority consisting of intervention studies focusing on the utilization of fluoride varnish for the prevention of dental caries.
