Objective: This study aimed to analyze the quality and reliability of information in the videos on YouTube about orthodontic temporary anchorage devices-miniscrews and miniplates. Material and Methods: A systematic search was performed on YouTube videos using the terms 'orthodontic miniscrews', 'orthodontic miniplates', and 'orthodontic anchorage.' The first 100 videos that matched the inclusion criteria were assessed for each keyword. The source, duration, views, likes, and dislikes of each video were recorded. The reliability and quality of the videos were evaluated using the 'reliability score' [adapted from DISCERN (Quality Criteria for Consumer Health Information)] and the Global Quality Scale (GQS), respectively. Results: Most of the videos were uploaded by healthcare professionals for each keyword. The mean reliability score on a 5-point scale was 1.3, 0.5, and 1.3 for videos on orthodontic miniscrews, miniplates, and anchorage, respectively. Regarding the GQS, most of the videos were evaluated as poor quality (54%). According to the Mann-Whitney U test results, regarding the GQS, the duration of the videos scored as moderate quality or higher was longer than that of the other videos (p<0.05). Conclusion: Although most YouTube videos on temporary anchorage devices were uploaded by healthcare professionals, they were of poor quality as they contained limited information.
Keywords: Internet; orthodontic anchorage procedures
Amaç: Bu çalışma, geçici ortodontik ankraj araçları olan minivida ve miniplaklar hakkında Youtube'da bulunan videoların kalitesini ve güvenirliğini analiz etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: 'Orthodontic miniscrew', 'orthodontic miniplate' ve 'orthodontic anchorage' terimleri kullanılarak YouTube üzerinde sistematik bir araştırma yapılmıştır. Her bir terim için dâhil edilme kriterlerini karşılayan ilk 100 video değerlendirilmiştir. Videoların kaynağı, süresi, görüntülenme, like ve dislike sayıları kaydedilmiştir. Videoların güvenirliği, 'reliability score' [DISCERN (Quality Criteria for Consumer Health Information)] ölçüm aracından uyarlanmış, kalitesi ise 'Global Quality Scale' (GQS) kullanılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Her anahtar kelime için geçerli olmak üzere, videoların çoğunluğu sağlık profesyonelleri tarafından yüklenmiştir. Ortalama güvenirlik skorları 5 puanlık ölçek üzerinden 'orthodontic miniscrew', 'orthodontic miniplate' ve 'orthodontic anchorage' anahtar kelimelerin sırasına göre 1,3, 0,5 ve 1,3'tür. GQS'ye göre videoların çoğunluğu zayıf kalitedededir (%54). Mann-Whitney U testine göre GQS'nin ortalama ve üzeri değerlerde olduğu videoların süresi diğerlerine göre daha uzundur (p<0,05). Sonuç: Her ne kadar geçici ankraj araçları ile ilgili YouTube videoları, çoğunluğu sağlık profesyonelleri tarafından yüklenmiş olsa da sınırlı sayıda bilgi içerdiği için kalite olarak yetersizdir.
