This bibliometric review is aimed to analyze the top 100 most-cited publications in dentistry and to compare its outcomes. A literature search was performed using Elsevier's Scopus, without any restriction of language, publication year, or study design. Of 336,381 articles, the top 100 were included based on their citation count, which ranged from 638 to 4728 citations (Feijoo et al., 326 to 2050). The most productive decade was the 2000s, with 40 articles on the list (Feijoo et al., 1980s: 26). Marx RE (7%) was the major contributor in this study (Feijoo et al., Socransky SS: 9%), and almost half (48%) of articles were from the USA. Of the top 100 articles, 26% focused on periodontology (Feijoo et al., periodontology: 43%), while 17% of the total were published in the Journal of Dental Research (Feijoo et al., Journal of Clinical Periodontology: 20%). Most of the publications were narrative reviews/expert opinion (36%), (Feijoo et al., case series: 22%), and were within the evidence level V (64%) (Feijoo et al., 54%). The citation count that a paper secures is not necessarily a reflection of research's quality, however, the current analysis provides the latest citation trends in dentistry.
本文献计量学综述旨在分析牙科领域被引用次数最多的100篇出版物，并比较其结果。使用爱思唯尔的Scopus进行文献检索，不限制语言、出版年份或研究设计。在336381篇文章中，根据被引用次数纳入了前100篇，其被引用次数在638至4728次之间（费霍等人，326至2050次）。产出最多的十年是21世纪头十年，列表中有40篇文章（费霍等人，20世纪80年代：26篇）。马克思·R·E（7%）是本研究的主要贡献者（费霍等人，索克兰斯基·S·S：9%），几乎一半（48%）的文章来自美国。在前100篇文章中，26%关注牙周病学（费霍等人，牙周病学：43%），而总数的17%发表在《牙科研究杂志》上（费霍等人，《临床牙周病学杂志》：20%）。大多数出版物是叙述性综述/专家意见（36%），（费霍等人，病例系列：22%），证据水平为V级（64%）（费霍等人，54%）。一篇论文获得的被引用次数不一定反映研究质量，然而，当前的分析提供了牙科领域最新的被引用趋势。
