A Bibliometric Analysis and Visualisation of Research Trends in Surface Modification of Implant

Abstract

Innovations and advances in material engineering and surface engineering play a key role in developing modern, safe, durable, and biocompatible implants. Thebibliometric analysis had been conducted to understand the active authors, organizations, journals, and countries involved in the research domain of “surface modification of implants”.All published articles related to “surface modification of implants” from “Scopus”,were the Clinical Oral Implants Research, Biomaterials, and Journal of Bio-medical Materials Research. The most active countries were China, Germany, and the USA. The leading organization engaged in the research regarding surface modification of implantswas the Dental Materials Research Centre, Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Iran. The most active authors who had made valuable contributions related to surface modification of implants were Wang X. and De Wild M.
