Oral and gingival health research is a research topic within Pharmacy. Science Explorer counts 19k research works in it since 1950. 13.9% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.

This cluster of papers explores the risk factors, genetic mechanisms, and clinical aspects of gingival overgrowth induced by medications such as cyclosporin A, tacrolimus, and phenytoin. It delves into the molecular pathways, connective tissue metabolism, and the influence of growth factors and cytokines on the development and management of drug-induced and hereditary gingival fibromatosis. The cluster also investigates the prevalence, severity, and treatment options for gingival overgrowth in patients undergoing organ transplantation or medication therapy.
