Background: The application of nanomaterials (NMs) in the treatment of periodontitis and peri-implantitis has shown multifunctional benefits, such as antibacterial properties, immune regulation, and promotion of osteogenesis. However, a comprehensive bibliometric analysis to evaluate global scientific production in this field has not yet been conducted. Method: We searched for publications related to nanomaterials in periodontitis and peri-implantitis using the WOSCC database. The contributions from institutions, journals, countries, and authors were assessed using VOSviewer, the bibliometrix R package, and Microsoft Excel 2019. Results: We identified 2275 publications from 66 countries/regions focusing on nanomaterials in periodontitis and peri-implantitis, published between 1993 and 2023. China and the USA were the top contributors in this field, with 653 and 221 publications, respectively. Key topics include antibacterial properties, delivery systems, nanoparticles, and regeneration. The research focus has evolved from traditional treatments to advanced applications of multifunctional nanomaterials. Conclusion: Significant progress has been made in the application of NMs in periodontitis and peri-implantitis from 1993 to 2023. Future research hotspots will likely focus on multifunctional nanomaterials and those adhering to good manufacturing practices (GMP).
