Abstract
The study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis on root canal irrigation to elucidate the development of this domain and pose the future research trends. Of 6722 articles retrieved from Clarivate Analytics' Web of Science Core Collection and PubMed, 6650 publications were included for bibliometric analysis. Irrigation field had received emerging attention for the last half century, peaking at 399 in 2022. The United States was revealed as the most influential contributor, with Journal of Endodontics representing the most voluminous resource. Franklin R Tay was regarded as the most productive author, while Siqueira, Jose. F. was the most prominent. Both keywords cluster analysis and burst analysis revealed the main research branch fields were irrigation protocols. Within this branch, the discussion of irrigants (with a frequency of 1135) ranked first. This bibliometric study revealed the research hotspot of irrigants, while suggesting the future directions of irrigants' creations and micro-level mechanism elucidation.
期刊介绍:
The Australian Endodontic Journal provides a forum for communication in the different fields that encompass endodontics for all specialists and dentists with an interest in the morphology, physiology, and pathology of the human tooth, in particular the dental pulp, root and peri-radicular tissues.
The Journal features regular clinical updates, research reports and case reports from authors worldwide, and also publishes meeting abstracts, society news and historical endodontic glimpses.
The Australian Endodontic Journal is a publication for dentists in general and specialist practice devoted solely to endodontics. It aims to promote communication in the different fields that encompass endodontics for those dentists who have a special interest in endodontics.
