To perform a bibliometric study of periodontal disease and Alzheimer's disease (AD) focusing on trends, collaborative efforts, and emerging patterns.
From January 2018 to May 2024, an observational study was carried out utilizing metadata extracted from the Scopus database. A search methodology, specifically designed for this database, was developed using MeSH terms combined with Boolean operators such as "AND" and "OR". The Bibliometrix tool was employed to facilitate the study, using indicators including the number of citations and publications, the authorship of the publication, the country of origin, the year of publication, the type of publication, the H-index, WorldMap, Sankey diagram, keyword analysis, topic evolution, and scientific findings.
A total of 50.7 and 27.3% of the publications were in Q1 and Q2 quartile journals. The University of Central Lancashire has the most publications (17), but the University of California at San Francisco has the highest impact (1545 citations per publication). The journal Periodontology 2000 had a total of 643 citations per publication. Sim Kaur Singhrao (16) and Ingar Olsen (10) were the authors with the most publications, whereas Eric C Reynolds had the highest impact with 1,300 citations.
This bibliometric study found a gradual growth in publications, with the highest number of studies during 2021 and 2022, followed by a decrease in subsequent years, with Q1 and Q2 journals predominating. In terms of scientific productivity, the United States is the leading country in this area of research. The journal Periodontology 2000 had the highest number of citations, demonstrating the particular interest of periodontology in studying the association between periodontal disease and systemic diseases.
The present study is significant because the relationship between periodontitis and Alzheimer is currently considered a novel multidisciplinary research opportunity, given that it includes both medical and dental specialties. This research also provides a valuable contribution to academics, universities, and research centers because it will allow us to understand trends and new research horizons and identify the most productive authors.

对牙周病和阿尔茨海默病（AD）进行文献计量学研究，重点关注趋势、合作情况和新出现的模式。
2018年1月至2024年5月，利用从Scopus数据库中提取的元数据开展一项观察性研究。使用医学主题词（MeSH）术语结合“AND”和“OR”等布尔运算符，开发了一种专门为此数据库设计的检索方法。采用文献计量学工具来推动该研究，使用的指标包括被引次数、发表文章数量、文章作者、原产国、发表年份、出版物类型、H指数、世界地图、桑基图、关键词分析、主题演变和科学发现。
共有50.7%和27.3%的出版物发表在Q1和Q2四分位期刊上。中央兰开夏大学发表的文章数量最多（17篇），但加州大学旧金山分校的影响力最大（每篇出版物被引1545次）。《牙周病学2000》杂志每篇出版物的总被引次数为643次。Sim Kaur Singhrao（16篇）和Ingar Olsen（10篇）是发表文章最多的作者，而Eric C Reynolds的影响力最大，被引次数为1300次。
这项文献计量学研究发现出版物数量呈逐渐增长趋势，2021年和2022年的研究数量最多，随后几年有所下降，以Q1和Q2期刊为主。在科研生产力方面，美国是该研究领域的领先国家。《牙周病学2000》杂志的被引次数最多，表明牙周病学在研究牙周病与全身性疾病之间的关联方面具有特别的兴趣。
本研究具有重要意义，因为鉴于牙周炎与阿尔茨海默病之间的关系涉及医学和牙科专业，目前被认为是一个新的多学科研究机会。这项研究也为学术界、大学和研究中心做出了宝贵贡献，因为它将使我们能够了解趋势和新的研究视野，并确定最有生产力的作者。如何引用本文：Matta-Pacheco J, Tsukamoto-Jaramillo A, Tinedo-López PL, 牙周炎与阿尔茨海默病的文献计量学研究：趋势、合作及新出现的模式。《当代牙科实践杂志》2024；25(9):863 - 868。
