An innovative biomechanical procedure for preparing bone for dental implant placement is called osseodensification. The current study evaluated the bibliometric attributes of the research performance on osseodensification. We utilized the osseodensification database that we obtained from the Scopus, Web of science, PubMed, ScienceDriect, and Cochrane Library databases to perform retrospective bibliometric study. The data was searched during April 16, 2024, with the search term "Versah" OR "Densah" OR "Osseodensification". We identified 114 records on the Scopus database, 88 records on Web of Science, 90, 54 and 62 records on PubMed, ScienceDirect and Cochrane Library, respectively. After applying inclusion/exclusion criteria, removed the duplicate and irrelevant records (n = 286), and 122 articles were considered for analysis. The year of publications with citations, publishing channels, top contributing countries, institutions, authors, authorship patterns and the attributes of top-10 most cited articles were quantified from the bibliometric parameters of the articles. For the data analysis, Microsoft Excel (v.16) software (Redmond, Washington) was applied. A bibliometric analysis of 122 osseodensification research articles published between 2016 and 2024 revealed key trends. The United States was the leading contributor, followed by Brazil and Italy. The International Journal of Oral & Maxillofacial Implants (n = 9) and Implant Dentistry (n = 74.20 citations/article) were the most prolific journals. While the United States had the highest number of articles (n = 46), Romania demonstrated the highest citation impact per article (27.80 citations/article). Collaboration between institutions, particularly between two, was associated with the highest citations. Most authors contributed to a single article, with an average of nearly five authors (4.79) per article. Rodrigo Neiva was identified as the most prolific author. The top 10 most-cited articles accounted for almost half (48.56%) of all citations. Osseodensification is a potential procedure in implant dentistry with promising prospects for improving implant success rates.
一种用于为牙种植体植入准备骨组织的创新生物力学程序称为骨致密化。本研究评估了骨致密化研究成果的文献计量学属性。我们利用从Scopus、科学网、PubMed、ScienceDriect和Cochrane图书馆数据库中获取的骨致密化数据库进行回顾性文献计量学研究。于2024年4月16日进行数据检索，检索词为“Versah”或“Densah”或“骨致密化”。我们在Scopus数据库中识别出114条记录，在科学网中识别出88条记录，在PubMed、ScienceDirect和Cochrane图书馆中分别识别出90条、54条和62条记录。应用纳入/排除标准后，去除重复和不相关记录（n = 286），122篇文章被纳入分析。从文章的文献计量参数中量化了发表年份、被引次数、发表渠道、主要贡献国家、机构、作者、作者模式以及被引次数排名前10的文章的属性。数据分析使用了Microsoft Excel（v.16）软件（华盛顿州雷德蒙德）。对2016年至2024年发表的122篇骨致密化研究文章进行的文献计量分析揭示了关键趋势。美国是主要贡献国，其次是巴西和意大利。《国际口腔颌面种植杂志》（n = 9）和《种植牙科学》（每篇文章被引次数为74.20次）是发表文章最多的期刊。虽然美国的文章数量最多（n = 46），但罗马尼亚每篇文章的被引影响力最高（每篇文章27.80次被引）。机构之间的合作，特别是两个机构之间的合作，与最高的被引次数相关。大多数作者仅为一篇文章做出贡献，每篇文章平均有近五名作者（4.79名）。罗德里戈·内瓦被确定为发表文章最多的作者。被引次数排名前10的文章占所有被引次数的近一半（48.56%）。骨致密化是种植牙科学中的一种潜在程序，在提高种植成功率方面具有广阔前景。
