Extensive research has suggested a potential link between these two diseases. This study conducted a bibliometric analysis using the Thomson Reuters Web of Science Core Collection database, focusing on publications from 2014 to 2023 . The analysis included data extraction and examination of authors, affiliations, publication dates, journals, countries, citation counts, keywords, and the H-index. A total of 253 relevant articles were identified, showing an increasing trend in both publications and citations over the years. The analysis highlighted the most productive authors, institutions, and countries/regions, with Michaud DS and Abnet CC leading in the number of publications. Highly cited articles emphasized the role of specific oral microbiota, particularly F. nucleatum and P. gingivalis, in various cancers, suggesting their potential as diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets. Four key thematic clusters emerged from the keyword analysis: the broader health implications of periodontal disease, the microbiome’s role in carcinogenesis, inflammation, and specific bacteria in cancer, and epidemiological methods in studying the disease– cancer association. This bibliometric analysis underscores the growing interest in the connection between periodontal disease and cancer. Future research should adopt interdisciplinary approaches, focus on large-scale microbiome studies and longitudinal research to understand the systemic effects of periodontal disease, identify cancer-associated bacterial profiles, and investigate the molecular mechanisms of bacterial carcinogenesis. Additionally, public health interventions aimed at improving oral hygiene and reducing cancer risk factors are recommended.  \nKeywords: periodontal diseases; neoplasms; bibliometrics; databases; bibliographic  \n1. Introduction  \nPeriodontal disease is one of the most prevalent oral diseases, and it significantly impacts individuals and society [1] . According to the Global Oral Health Status Report 2022, severe periodontal disease affected approximately 1.08 billion people worldwide in 2019, with an age-standardized prevalence of 18.82% among individuals over 15 years old [2] . Cancer remains the foremost cause of premature death worldwide, ranking first in 57 countries and second in 70 [3] .
