Abstract

Abstract Introduction and Objective: This study aimed to provide a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of global scientific literature on the impact of smoking on periodontal health, with a focus on thematic evolution, influential authors, and emerging research trends. Understanding these trends can inform clinical guidelines and public health strategies targeting tobacco-related periodontal conditions. Materials and Methods: A total of 844 original research articles published between 1980 and 2024 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection. Science mapping was performed using SciMAT software based on co-word analysis. The research timeline was divided into three periods (1990–2009, 2010–2016, and 2017–2024). Strategic diagrams, thematic networks, and evolution maps were generated to identify dominant and emerging themes. Results: A significant increase in publications was observed after 1996, peaking in 2022. “Smoking” remained the most prominent motor theme across all periods, while “smoking cessation” and “nicotine dependence” emerged as key subtopics in recent years. The United States, India, and Brazil were the leading contributors to the literature. Highly cited publications primarily addressed smoking as a major risk factor for periodontitis, its biological mechanisms, and clinical implications. Thematic shifts reflected a transition from locally focused clinical perspectives to broader systemic and public health-oriented discourse. Conclusion: This study highlights the sustained academic interest in the relationship between smoking and periodontal diseases. The increasing focus on cessation and addiction aligns with global tobacco control efforts, thereby deepening the understanding of the evolving research landscape and informing both clinical practice and public health strategies. 1.

Özet

Giriş ve Amaç: Bu çalışma, sigaranın periodontal sağlık üzerindeki etkisine ilişkin küresel bilimsel literatürün kapsamlı bir bibliyometrik analizini sunmayı; tematik gelişim, etkili yazarlar ve ortaya çıkan araştırma eğilimlerine odaklanmayı amaçlamıştır. Bu eğilimlerin anlaşılması, tütünle ilişkili periodontal durumlara yönelik klinik rehberlerin ve halk sağlığı stratejilerinin geliştirilmesine katkı sağlayabilir. Gereç ve Yöntem: 1980–2024 yılları arasında yayımlanan toplam 844 özgün araştırma makalesi Web of Science Core Collection veri tabanından elde edilmiştir. Bilimsel haritalama, ortak kelime analizi temelinde SciMAT yazılımı kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma süreci üç döneme ayrılmıştır (1990–2009, 2010–2016 ve 2017–2024). Baskın ve ortaya çıkan temaları belirlemek amacıyla stratejik diyagramlar, tematik ağlar ve evrim haritaları oluşturulmuştur. Bulgular: Yayın sayısında 1996 yılından sonra belirgin bir artış gözlenmiş ve bu artış 2022 yılında zirveye ulaşmıştır. “Smoking” tüm dönemlerde en belirgin motor tema olarak kalırken, son yıllarda “smoking cessation” ve “nicotine dependence” önemli alt başlıklar olarak öne çıkmıştır. Amerika Birleşik Devletleri, Hindistan ve Brezilya literatüre en fazla katkı sağlayan ülkeler olmuştur. En çok atıf alan yayınlar, sigaranın periodontitis için önemli bir risk faktörü olması, biyolojik mekanizmaları ve klinik etkileri üzerine yoğunlaşmıştır. Tematik değişimler, yerel odaklı klinik yaklaşımlardan daha geniş sistemik ve halk sağlığı odaklı bir söyleme geçişi yansıtmıştır. Sonuç: Bu çalışma, sigara ile periodontal hastalıklar arasındaki ilişkiye yönelik akademik ilginin sürdüğünü göstermektedir. Sigara bırakma ve bağımlılık konularına artan odaklanma, küresel tütün kontrolü çabalarıyla uyumlu olup, gelişen araştırma alanının daha iyi anlaşılmasına katkı sağlamakta ve hem klinik uygulamalara hem de halk sağlığı stratejilerine yol göstermektedir. 1.
