ABSTRACT

This research aimed to identify shifts in international research trends related to oral health and to investigate potential research directions. An analysis of keyword frequency and centrality was conducted using Textom 6.0 on 2,565 author keywords extracted from 415 articles sourced from Web of Science. The most commonly used keywords included ‘health’, ‘disease’, ‘risk’, ‘HIV’, and ‘Cell’. The degree centrality was notably high for key words such as ‘health’, ‘disease’, ‘risk’, ‘factor’, ‘gingivitis’, ‘cell’, ‘control’, ‘periodontitis’, ‘cancer’, and ‘review’. Additionally, the betwee ness centrality was elevated for ‘health’, ‘disease’, ‘risk’, ‘cancer’, ‘factor’, ‘analysis’, ‘therapy’, ‘food’, ‘cell’, and ‘gingivitis’. These results suggest that future research in oral health could be enhanced and directed by concentrating on the most central keywords.
