Declining or Waning
- Traditional Epidemiological Studies:
There has been a noticeable decrease in traditional epidemiological studies focusing solely on the prevalence of oral diseases without integrating newer molecular and genetic insights. - Historical Reviews:
The frequency of publications centered around historical reviews or retrospective analyses of older practices in oral medicine has diminished, as there is a shift towards more innovative and forward-looking research. - Basic Science Studies:
Research that is purely basic science without direct clinical application or relevance to current therapeutic challenges is becoming less common, as the journal increasingly prioritizes translational research. - Oral Health Education Programs:
The focus on oral health education programs as standalone studies has waned, with fewer publications dedicated solely to educational frameworks without accompanying clinical outcomes.
