Trending and Emerging
- Digital and Computer-Assisted Surgery:
There is a significant increase in studies focusing on digital technologies, including computer-aided design (CAD), virtual surgical planning, and the use of artificial intelligence in surgical procedures. - Regenerative Medicine and Biomaterials:
Research on the use of biomaterials and regenerative techniques for enhancing healing and reconstruction in oral and maxillofacial surgery is gaining traction, reflecting advancements in this area. - Telemedicine and Remote Patient Management:
The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated interest in telemedicine, with studies exploring its effectiveness in managing post-operative care and consultations. - Patient-Centered Care and Outcomes Research:
A growing emphasis on understanding patient-reported outcomes, satisfaction, and quality of life indicates a shift towards more patient-centered approaches in surgical care. - Microvascular and Reconstructive Surgery:
Emerging trends show increased research on microvascular techniques and innovative approaches for reconstructive surgery, particularly following oncological resections.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Surgical Techniques:
There is a noticeable decline in publications focusing on conventional surgical techniques as more innovative and minimally invasive approaches gain popularity. - Basic Epidemiological Studies:
Research that simply describes the prevalence or incidence of oral and maxillofacial conditions without deeper analysis or implications appears to be waning, as journals favor studies with more robust clinical implications. - General Anesthesia Studies:
Research centered on the use of general anesthesia in oral and maxillofacial surgeries has decreased, possibly due to a growing preference for local anesthesia and sedation techniques. - Non-technical Clinical Reviews:
The journal has seen fewer non-technical reviews that do not incorporate new findings or methodologies, suggesting a preference for more data-driven and evidence-based articles. - Single-Center Studies:
There is a reduction in the publication of single-center studies, with a shift towards multi-center collaborations that enhance the robustness of research findings.
