The study of classic papers permits analysis of the past, present, and future of a specific area of knowledge. This type of analysis is becoming more frequent and more sophisticated. Our objective was to use the H-classics method, based on the h-index, to analyze classic papers in Implant Dentistry, Periodontics, and Oral Surgery (ID, P, and OS).
First, an electronic search of documents related to ID, P, and OS was conducted in journals indexed in Journal Citation Reports (JCR) 2014 within the category 'Dentistry, Oral Surgery & Medicine'. Second, Web of Knowledge databases were searched using Mesh terms related to ID, P, and OS. Finally, the H-classics method was applied to select the classic articles in these disciplines, collecting data on associated research areas, document type, country, institutions, and authors.
Of 267,611 documents related to ID, P, and OS retrieved from JCR journals (2014), 248 were selected as H-classics. They were published in 35 journals between 1953 and 2009, most frequently in the Journal of Clinical Periodontology (18.95%), the Journal of Periodontology (18.54%), International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Implants (9.27%), and Clinical Oral Implant Research (6.04%). These classic articles derived from the USA in 49.59% of cases and from Europe in 47.58%, while the most frequent host institution was the University of Gothenburg (17.74%) and the most frequent authors were J. Lindhe (10.48%) and S. Socransky (8.06%).
The H-classics approach offers an objective method to identify core knowledge in clinical disciplines such as ID, P, and OS.
对经典论文的研究有助于分析特定知识领域的过去、现在和未来。这种分析正变得越来越频繁和复杂。我们的目标是使用基于h指数的H-经典方法，分析种植牙科、牙周病学和口腔外科（ID、P和OS）领域的经典论文。
首先，在《期刊引证报告》（JCR）2014年“牙科、口腔外科与医学”类别中索引的期刊中，对与ID、P和OS相关的文献进行电子检索。其次，使用与ID、P和OS相关的医学主题词在Web of Knowledge数据库中进行检索。最后，应用H-经典方法选择这些学科中的经典文章，收集有关相关研究领域、文献类型、国家、机构和作者的数据。
从JCR期刊（2014年）检索到的267,611篇与ID、P和OS相关的文献中，有248篇被选为H-经典论文。它们于1953年至2009年间发表在35种期刊上，最常见于《临床牙周病学杂志》（18.95%）、《牙周病学杂志》（18.54%）、《国际口腔颌面种植杂志》（9.27%）和《临床口腔种植研究》（6.04%）。这些经典文章49.59%来自美国，47.58%来自欧洲，最常见的主办机构是哥德堡大学（17.74%），最常见的作者是J. Lindhe（10.48%）和S. Socransky（8.06%）。
H-经典方法提供了一种客观的方法来识别ID、P和OS等临床学科的核心知识。
