Abstract
Objectives To evaluate the scientific production and its impact on the community of Italian researchers and practitioners working in the field of periodontology. Materials and methods We evaluated active members of the Italian Society of Periodontology (SIdP) (73 who held academic positions and 71 private practitioners) in terms of the number of scientific publications (total and those related specifically to periodontics), number of citations, and the H-Index. Results and conclusions The median number of publications was 16, and 50% of these were in the field of periodontology. The researchers had a median of 4 publications cited at least 4 times (H-Index = 4). Members who held academic positions had a greater scientific production and impact, while the publications of the private practitioners showed a higher specificity for the periodontal field.
