Abstract

Aim: This study aimed to carry out a bibliometric review of the 100 most cited articles on composite resin in dentistry. This analysis aims to identify highly recognized publications, map trends, and highlight leading authors and institutions in composite resin research. The review was carried out in the Clarivate Analytics Web of Science database. Study Design:  Review article. Methodology: The search was conducted in September 2023 using specific terms. The results were organized in an Excel table, sorted by citation count, and reviewed by two researchers, with a third consulted in case of discrepancies. The sample included publications mentioning composite resin in the title and/or abstract, with no restrictions on study type, year, language, or impact factor. The most cited articles were manually analysed for authors, citation counts, and contributing institutions. This study did not require ethical approval. Results: The initial search identified 20,129 articles. The results revealed a great diversity of studies, with a significant predominance of laboratory research. The prominent presence of author Ferracane and institutions such as Oregon Health & Science University and the University of Munich were highlighted as leaders in scientific production on composite resins. Additionally, a pattern of publications with production peaks in certain years was identified. These findings provide a comprehensive overview of research in this area and highlight the importance of these studies for the advancement of dentistry. Conclusion: The top 100 articles are fundamental to understanding the development of composite resins, although many recent articles may not have been included in the study because they are not among the most cited articles. This review can inspire new research, guiding the directions of future investigations. These results can guide researchers in identifying crucial information, including relevant articles, important journals, and essential.
