Abstract

Background/Aims

The preservation of avulsed teeth is critical in dental trauma management, necessitating effective storage media to ensure viable tooth reimplantation. The urgent need for accurate information has led both professional and non-professional individuals to increasingly seek guidance from video-sharing platforms such as YouTube™ and TikTok™. These platforms have become key resources for advice on such dental emergencies, but the reliability and accuracy of this information have not yet been systematically evaluated. This study aimed to assess the quality, accuracy, and reliability YouTube™ and TikTok™ of videos regarding storage solutions for avulsion injuries.

Material and Methods

A search was conducted on YouTube™ and TikTok™ on February 4th, 2023, using terms related to traumatic dental injuries, and 53 videos were included. Video demographics such as platform, duration, type, upload date, likes, and comments were recorded. Video content quality, reliability, and accuracy were measured using the Global Quality Scale (GQS), Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) benchmarks, and Video Information and Quality Index (VIQI). Research data were analyzed using SPSS IBM 24.0 at a 95% confidence interval.

Results

In total, 53 videos were examined. The average scores were JAMA: 1.70/4.00, modified DISCERN: 54.3/80.00, GQS: 3.88/5.00, and VIQI: 13.8/20.00. According to the modified DISCERN index, there were no “very poor” or “poor” quality videos, 49.05% were “moderate,” 22.6% were “good,” and 28.3% were “very good.” No difference was found between YouTube™ and TikTok™ videos in terms of the modified DISCERN index, JAMA scores, GQS, and VIQI scoring (p > .05).

Conclusions

Traumatic dental injuries are a common problem among children, and evaluating the reliability of available contents is becoming crucial for appropriate intervention. The study reveals that despite being sourced mainly from dental professionals, the overall quality of videos on avulsed tooth management was mediocre, underscoring the risks associated with misleading or incomplete information in such critical situations.

评估YouTube™和TikTok™上有关脱落牙齿存储介质内容的可靠性和准确性：横断面研究

背景/目的脱落牙齿的保存在牙科创伤管理中至关重要，需要有效的存储介质来确保可行的牙齿再植。对准确信息的迫切需求使得专业和非专业人士越来越多地从 YouTube™ 和 TikTok™ 等视频共享平台上寻求指导。这些平台已成为就此类牙科紧急情况提供建议的重要资源，但这些信息的可靠性和准确性尚未得到系统评估。本研究旨在评估YouTube™和TikTok™上有关撕脱伤存储解决方案的视频的质量、准确性和可靠性。材料和方法2023年2月4日，使用与牙外伤相关的术语在YouTube™和TikTok™上进行了搜索，共纳入53个视频。记录了视频的人口统计学特征，如平台、持续时间、类型、上传日期、点赞和评论。使用全球质量量表（GQS）、《美国医学会杂志》（JAMA）基准和视频信息与质量指数（VIQI）衡量视频内容的质量、可靠性和准确性。研究数据使用 SPSS IBM 24.0 进行分析，置信区间为 95%。平均得分分别为 JAMA：1.70/4.00，修改后的 DISCERN：54.3/80.00，GQS：3.88/5.00，VIQI：3.88/5.00：3.88/5.00，VIQI：13.8/20.00。根据修改后的 DISCERN 指数，没有 "非常差 "或 "差 "的视频质量，49.05% 为 "中等"，22.6% 为 "好"，28.3% 为 "非常好"。在修正的 DISCERN 指数、JAMA 分数、GQS 和 VIQI 分数方面，YouTube™ 和 TikTok™ 视频之间没有差异（p > .05）。研究显示，尽管视频主要来源于牙科专业人士，但有关脱落牙齿处理的视频总体质量一般，这凸显了在这种危急情况下误导性或不完整信息所带来的风险。
