Abstract:
Chinese Journal of Stomatology has gone through 70 years of ups and downs, witnessing the development of periodontics in China from a faltering start to twists and turns, and finally innovative development. This article aims to review the periodontology-related papers published in the Chinese Journal of Stomatology. Based on the characteristics of the times, they are summarized into five stages: staggering start, forced stagnation, vigorous development, standardized innovation, and disciplinary integration. Researches on periodontal diseases in China initially focused on learning and reference, gradually caught up with the international level, and finally created in-depth insights and innovations. Eventually, Chinese periodontology has formed a research system with Chinese characteristics and achieved substantial achievements in clinical diagnosis and treatment, basic research, periodontal medicine, and disciplinary integration. Although the current status of Chinese periodontology still lags behind that of developed countries, these representative studies demonstrate the unremitting efforts and hard work of periodontists for generations, laying a solid foundation for the innovation and development of periodontology in our country.
