In 2023, the number of such publications must be emphasized for comparative purposes but is not given directly here. The year-on-year percentage variations are minimal, indicating stability. The calculated Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) is modest, reflecting a slow but consistent rise.
Future trends to monitor include:
- The impact of increased funding for dental research on publication quality.
- Collaboration between Brazilian and international researchers.
- Potential breakthroughs in orthodontics that may drive more citations.
