Articles were reviewed for typographical, transcription, and indexing errors.The top 100 most-cited articles were published from 1994 to 2018, and had a total of 24,103 citations; 53 of the studies were funded. In total, 274 authors contributed to the papers, 5 of whom contributed to 10 or more articles. Review (n = 47) and clinical (n = 45) articles were the most prevalent types. European public universities made the largest contribution to the literature, and Sweden and Switzerland were the most active countries. All of the articles were published in 12 high-impact-factor journals.This is the first analysis of the most-cited articles on periimplantitis published in the Web of Science. In this bibliometric analysis, the most cited articles were published in high-impact-factor journals and were predominantly review articles.
