There is a growing emphasis on understanding patient experiences and outcomes related to endodontic treatments, moving beyond clinical success rates to assess overall wellbeing.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Root Canal Filling Materials:
Research on conventional filling materials has decreased as newer bioceramic and bioactive materials gain popularity, leading to a reduced emphasis on older techniques. - Invasive Surgical Techniques:
There is a noticeable decline in publications focusing on invasive surgical methods, possibly due to the rising interest in minimally invasive approaches and regenerative techniques. - Basic Anatomy of Tooth Structures:
As the field progresses, the focus on basic anatomical studies has waned in favor of more applied research that directly impacts clinical practices. - Historical Perspectives on Endodontics:
Papers that provide historical reviews of endodontic practices are less common, indicating a shift towards contemporary and future-oriented research. - Simple Case Reports:
The journal has seen a reduction in the number of straightforward case reports, as more complex, data-driven studies and systematic reviews take precedence.
