Visualization analysis of research frontiers and trends in nerve regeneration and osseoperception in the repair of tooth loss

This study analyzed 85 articles indexed by the Web of Science concerning nerve regeneration and osseoperception during tooth loss repair.Using the Web of Science database and Citespace III software,a document co-citation network map was drawn by document co-citation analysis and word frequency analysis methods.Combined with emergent node secondary literature retrieval,subject headings with apparent changing word frequency trends were retrieved so as to identify research frontiers and development trends.Research frontiers and hotspots for neuronal calcium sensor protein were quantitatively explored to forecast future research developments in nerve regeneration and osseoperception during repair of tooth loss.
