    Statement Of ProblemBibliometric studies to determine the characteristics of the most cited articles in prosthodontic journals are lacking.PurposeThe purpose of this study was to analyze the characteristics of the 100 most cited articles in prosthodontic journals between 1951 and 2019.Material And MethodsThe Google Scholar database was used to retrieve the list of journals with titles containing the term "Prosthodontic" or "Prosthetic." Twelve journals were filtered, and of these, only 8 were related to dentistry and hence were included in the study. A search was then performed for each of the selected journals under "Publication Name," and articles were arranged by the category "Times Cited." The 100 most cited articles from the 8 journals were selected and analyzed with regard to journal name, year of publication, authors and their country, type of study, and area of research.ResultsThe 100 most cited articles were published between 1958 and 2013, with the numbers of citations ranging between 2368 and 343. The journal with the largest number of the articles cited was the "Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry" with 72 articles, followed by the "International Journal of Prosthodontics" with 25 articles. The decade with most articles published was the 1990s with 33 articles. Many of the authors of most cited articles were from the United States or Sweden. Most articles reported reviews (35 articles), followed by experimental studies (34); the most commonly cited area of research was related to dental implants.ConclusionsThis bibliometric analysis of the 100 most cited articles revealed interesting facts about scientific progress in the field of prosthodontics.Copyright © 2019 Editorial Council for the Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry.
