This bibliometric analysis reveals that coronectomy research, particularly on safety and infection, receives significant citations. Citation frequency correlates with institutional publication output, not author, country, or journal metrics.
Area of Science:
- Oral Surgery
- Bibliometrics
- Dental Research Impact
Background:
- Coronectomy is a dental surgical procedure.
- Understanding the citation impact of coronectomy literature is crucial for assessing research influence.
Purpose of the Study:
- To conduct a bibliometric analysis of citations received by coronectomy papers and their references.
- To identify trends and influential factors in coronectomy research publications.
Main Methods:
- Data sourced from the Web of Science database.
- Bibliometric analysis performed on 79 relevant coronectomy papers using VOSviewer and CRExplorer.
- Included full records and cited references for comprehensive analysis.
Main Results:
- The 79 papers received an average of 9.7 citations each, with an h-index of 17.
- Top contributing countries included the UK (25.3%) and USA (12.7%).
- High citation counts were observed for papers on postoperative morbidity, including safety (35.5 citations/paper), dry socket (27.4 citations/paper), and infection (24.6 citations/paper).
Conclusions:
- Postoperative morbidity topics, such as safety, dry socket, and infection, are highly cited in coronectomy research.
- Citation per paper positively correlated with publication count at the affiliation level.
- No significant correlation was found between citation per paper and publication count at the author, country, or journal levels.
