Dental Research Journal's Impact FactorTM breaks the 6-barrier for the first time in 2020.

The Journal of Dental Research (JDR) has cemented its position as a leading publication in the field of dentistry, securing impressive rankings in various categories.

Published by the International Association for Dental Research (IADR) and the American Association for Dental Research (AADR), the JDR has achieved a 2-year Journal Impact Factor™ of 6.116. This places the journal at the fifth position among 91 titles in the "Dentistry, Oral Surgery & Medicine" category, according to the Journal Citation Reports™.

However, the JDR's influence extends beyond this, as it ranks first in total citations, with a staggering 26,197 citations over the same period. This impressive number places the journal at the top of the list of 91 journals in this category.

The JDR's high rankings are not limited to the 2-year Impact Factor™. The journal also excels in the Eigenfactor metric, where it ranks first among 91 journals, with a score of 0.01683. Additionally, the JDR ranks third in Article Influence Score.

The 2-year Journal Impact Factor™ is a measure of citations to the journal in the Journal Citation Reports™ year to items published in the previous two years. The Journal Citation Indicator, a new metric developed by the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI)™ at Clarivate™, represents the average category-normalized citation impact for papers published in the prior three-year period.

The Editor-in-Chief of the JDR, Nicholas Jakubovics, located at Newcastle University, England, expressed his excitement over the high scores and the journal's continued success. The JDR can be followed on Twitter at @JDentRes.

While the current publisher of the JDR was not explicitly stated in the search results provided, the journal is widely known to be published by the IADR and AADR, typically through a large academic publisher such as SAGE Publications.

The JDR is a multidisciplinary journal dedicated to the dissemination of new knowledge in all sciences relevant to dentistry and the oral cavity. The IADR is a nonprofit organization with over 10,000 individual members worldwide, and the AADR is the largest Division of IADR with 3,100 members in the United States.

The JDR's high rankings underscore its significance in the field of dentistry and its role in driving research and innovation. The journal continues to set the standard for excellence in dental and oral research.
