This bibliometric study analyzed the 100 most-cited papers about the use of lasers and their modalities in dentistry. A search strategy was created using specific keywords related to the topic. A comprehensive search was then conducted in the Web of Science Core Collection (WoS-CC) database up to July 2021. Papers that addressed the application of any type of laser and its modalities in dentistry were included. Each paper was cross-matched with the number of citations on Scopus and Google Scholar. The following data were extracted from papers: title, number of citations, authorship, country, year of publication, journal, study design, subject, laser type, and oral health outcomes. The VOSviewer software was used to generate bibliometric networks. The total number of citations ranged from 120 to 4,124 and 23 papers received more than 200 citations. Papers were published from 1964 to 2015. Most papers were from Europe (42%) and Anglo-Saxon America (27%). The USA was the country with more top 100 papers (25%). Papers were published mainly in Lasers in Surgery and Medicine (15%) and Lasers in Medical Science (7%). VOSviewer maps demonstrated the existence of national and international research collaborations among institutions and authors. Most studies had a laboratory design (57%) and were about restorative dentistry (32%) and periodontics (21%). This bibliometric study of the top 100 most-cited papers on lasers in dentistry allowed a quantitative and qualitative analysis of this very promising research field, revealing a net of collaboration and the importance of this topic in dentistry.
这篇文献计量研究分析了 100 篇关于激光及其在牙科中应用的最具引用价值的论文。使用与主题相关的特定关键字创建了搜索策略。然后,在 2021 年 7 月之前,在 Web of Science 核心合集 (WoS-CC) 数据库中进行了全面搜索。纳入了涉及任何类型的激光及其在牙科中的应用的论文。将每篇论文与 Scopus 和 Google Scholar 上的引用次数进行交叉匹配。从论文中提取以下数据:标题、引用次数、作者、国家、发表年份、期刊、研究设计、主题、激光类型和口腔健康结果。VOSviewer 软件用于生成文献计量网络。引用次数从 120 到 4124 不等,有 23 篇论文的引用次数超过 200。论文发表于 1964 年至 2015 年。大多数论文来自欧洲(42%)和英裔美洲(27%)。美国是拥有最多前 100 篇论文的国家(25%)。论文主要发表在《激光外科学与医学》(15%)和《激光医学科学》(7%)。VOSviewer 图谱表明,机构和作者之间存在国家和国际研究合作。大多数研究为实验室设计(57%),主要研究领域为修复牙科(32%)和牙周病学(21%)。这项关于牙科中激光的前 100 篇最具引用价值的论文的文献计量研究,对这一极具前景的研究领域进行了定量和定性分析,揭示了合作网络以及该主题在牙科中的重要性。
