Could Ofloxacin Be an Alternative to Amoxicillin–Metronidazole as an Adjunct to Non-surgical Periodontal Therapy?

Objective: Finite element stress analysis is a method in which stress formation on tissues and materials of any structure and shape can be analyzed. In this study, it is aimed to make a biblio- metric analysis of studies in prosthetic dentistry using finite element stress analysis in TR Index. Materials and Methods: Articles were obtained by searching the “finite element” keyword in the TR Index. Dentistry journals were filtered and studies were reduced to the field of dentistry. The publications were classified and recorded to include the journal name, publication year, author institutions, departments, article type, article language, and number of citations. Publications in the field of prosthetic dentistry were included in this study. Frequency analysis of the data, desc- riptive statistics and Mann–Whitney U test were performed (α = 0.05). Results: Twenty-seven studies, including 2 reviews and 25 research articles, were reached. It was seen that the most publications were in the Journal of Dental Faculty of Atatürk University and Cumhuriyet Dental Journal. Post core restorations, all-ceramic crowns, maxillofacial prostheses, and implant-sup- ported prostheses were the subject of the studies, 13 of which were in Turkish and 14 in English. Conclusion: Finite element stress analysis is a preferred method in prosthetic dentistry studies. The field of implantology stands out in this sense. National studies using this method have shown a significant increase in the last decade. The language had no significant effect on the number of citations of the publications. Keywords: Bibliometrics, prosthodontics, finite element analysis, dentistry, database ÖZ Amaç: Sonlu elemanlar stres analizi (SESA) herhangi bir yapı ve şekle sahip dokular ve materyaller üzerindeki stres oluşumunun analiz edilebildiği bir yöntemdir. Bu çalışmada TR Dizin’de SESA kul- lanan Protetik Diş Tedavisi çalışmalarının bibliyometrik incelemesinin yapılması amaçlanmıştr. Gereç ve Yöntem: TR Dizin’de ‘sonlu elemanlar’ ve ‘finite element’ anahtar kelimeleri aranarak yayınlar elde edilmiştir. Diş hekimliği dergileri filtrelenerek çalışmalar diş hekimliği alanına indirgenmiştir. Yayınlar dergi adı, yayın yılı, yazar kurumları, anabilim dalları, makale türü, makale dili, atıf sayısı bilgilerini içerecek şekilde sınıflandırılarak kaydedildi. Protetik Diş Tedavisi alanında yapılan yayınlar bu çalışmaya dahil edildi. Verilerin değerlendirilmesi için tanımlayıcı istatistik, frekans analizi ve Mann–Whitney U testi yapıldı (α = 0,05). Bulgular: İkisi derleme, yirmi beşi araştırma makalesi olmak üzere yirmi yedi çalışmaya ulaşıldı. En fazla yayının Atatürk Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi Dergisi ve Cumhuriyet Dental Journal derg- ilerinde yer aldığı görüldü. On üçü Türkçe, on dördü İngilizce olarak hazırlanan çalışmalarda post core restorasyonlar, tam seramik kronlar, çene yüz protezleri ve implant üstü protezler konu edilmiştir. Sonuç: SESA Protetik Diş Tedavisi çalışmalarında tercih edilen bir yöntemdir. İmplantoloji alanı bu anlamda öne çıkmaktadır. Bu yöntemi kullanan ulusal çalışmalar son on yılda önemli bir artış göstermiştir. Makale dilinin yayınların atıf sayısına anlamlı bir etkisi bulunamamıştır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Bibliometri, protetik diş tedavisi, sonlu elemanlar analizi, diş Hekimliği, veri tabanı
