AIM: To conduct a scientometric analysis on black stains, and dental caries, with a focus on identifying emergent patterns, collaborative networks, and thematic evolution. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective, descriptive, observational study was conducted using a scientometric approach. The Scopus database was utilized for literature search, selecting articles published between 1976 and 2023. The literature search was carried out on February 8, 2024, using AND and OR Boolean operators which were adapted to the search strategy. Finally, SciVal used different scientometric indicators such as "Scholarly Output", "Views Count", "Field-Weighted Citation Impact" and the "Citation Count". RESULTS: A total of 13 documents from 10 different sources were analyzed, covering a period from 1976 to 2023. Despite an annual growth rate of 0%, each document has an average of 21.08 citations, indicating their relevance in the field. The documents have an average age of 12.9 years and contain 336 references. A total of 143 additional keywords and 26 author keywords were identified. The documents were written by 62 different authors, with an average of 5 coauthors per document and 30.77% international coauthorships. CONCLUSION: The results indicate a significant relevance of the documents in the field, a notable collaboration among authors, and a significant thematic evolution in the research topics. The mentioned institutions and sources produced documents with notable results, indicating a significant interest and impact in the field. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: This study provides a detailed view of the trends and patterns in the research of dental caries and black stains. The findings can assist dental health professionals in better understanding the prevalence and impact of these conditions. Furthermore, it can guide future research and treatment strategies in this field. How to cite this article: Mayta-Tovalino F, Espinoza-Carhuancho F, Reyes-Carmona J, .

目的:对黑色牙渍和龋齿进行科学计量分析,重点识别新兴模式、合作网络和主题演变。
材料和方法:采用科学计量学方法进行回顾性、描述性、观察性研究。使用 Scopus 数据库进行文献检索,选择 1976 年至 2023 年期间发表的文章。文献检索于 2024 年 2 月 8 日进行,使用 AND 和 OR 布尔运算符,并根据搜索策略进行了调整。最后,SciVal 使用了不同的科学计量指标,如“学术产出”、“浏览量”、“领域加权引文影响力”和“引文量”。
结果:共分析了 10 个不同来源的 13 篇文献,涵盖了 1976 年至 2023 年的时间段。尽管每年的增长率为 0%,但每份文献的平均被引次数为 21.08 次,表明其在该领域的相关性。文献的平均年龄为 12.9 年,包含 336 篇参考文献。共确定了 143 个额外的关键词和 26 个作者关键词。这些文献由 62 位不同的作者撰写,每篇文献平均有 5 位合著者,国际合著率为 30.77%。
结论:结果表明,这些文献在该领域具有显著的相关性,作者之间有显著的合作,研究主题有显著的主题演变。提到的机构和来源产生了具有显著成果的文献,表明在该领域有显著的兴趣和影响力。
临床意义:本研究提供了对龋齿和黑色牙渍研究趋势和模式的详细了解。研究结果可以帮助牙科保健专业人员更好地了解这些情况的普遍性和影响。此外,它可以指导该领域未来的研究和治疗策略。
