摘要

Objectives

To evaluate the reliability and quality of YouTube videos focused on coronectomy using DISCERN, Video Information and Quality Index (VIQI), and Global Quality Scale (GQS) tools.

Study design

Two reviewers independently identified 53 videos for final analysis and classified based on their quality and content relevance using DISCERN, VIQI, and GQS.

Results

Most videos were targeted to the general public (81.1%) and uploaded by non-profit organizations or professional doctors (45.3%). The average DISCERN score was 37.31 ± 8.95 (poor quality), the average VIQI score was 9.92 ± 3.29 (fair quality). Longer videos showed higher DISCERN scores (P = 0.036) and received more engagement (likes: P = 0.024; comments: P < 0.001). Non-patient uploaders produced videos with higher VIQI scores (P < 0.001), whereas Patient-uploaded videos generated more comments (P = 0.001). Higher content quality was correlated with higher likes (p = 0.013).

Conclusions

Coronectomy-related YouTube videos generally lack sufficient information and reliability. Videos by professionals were higher in quality, whereas those by patients generated more engagement. High-content videos showed superior quality and popularity, but were limited in number. Dental professionals need to improve accessible educational content, influencing patient acceptance of this surgical alternative.
