A bibliometric analysis of periodontology

Abstract

This bibliometric study assessed periodontal/implant articles that were part of the five most-cited dental articles in each of the years 2005-2019. Periodontal/implant articles made up one to four articles in each of 14 years and totaled 40% of the yearly five most-cited dental articles. The three core periodontal journals (Journal of Clinical Periodontology, Journal of Periodontology, and Periodontology 2000) increased ~50%-100% in Journal Impact Factor from 2005 to 2015 and were among the 10 most-cited dental journals in the 2015-2019 period. The Journal of Clinical Periodontology and Periodontology 2000 were in several years assigned the highest Journal Impact Factor in dentistry. In summary, periodontal journals continue to publish high-impact articles that are relevant for both oral health care and medicine.
