Altmetrics, an emerging field in scholarly research evaluation, offers new ways to assess the impact and visibility of dental research. Unlike traditional citation-based metrics, altmetrics measure the online attention and engagement generated by research outputs, including articles, clinical guidelines, and conference proceedings. This review article aims to provide an overview of the application of altmetrics in dental research, highlighting its potential benefits and limitations. We discuss the various altmetrics indicators and platforms available for tracking and analyzing dental research impact, such as social media mentions, downloads, views, and citations in non-traditional sources.
