Objective: YouTubeTM is an online platform that parents usually prefer to seek information on health issues, including pediatric dental sedation. The study aimed to assess the quality, reliability, and content of the YouTubeTM videos on pediatric dental sedation. Material and Methods: The searching term was detected as 'sedation in pediatric dentistry' (Google Trends Application). The first 149 videos on YouTubeTM were listed, and the Uniform Resource Locator was copied. A five-point scale [Global Quality Scale (GQS)], reliability scores, and content analyses were performed on the videos remained which are suitable with the including criteria (n=55). The Shapiro-Wilk and the Mann-Whitney U tests were used for statistical evaluations. Results: The recent study results showed that the videos analyzed were classified as 'poor' considering the content analyses. The mean and median reliability score and GQS of the videos were generally moderate quality. The median GQS values of the rich content videos seemed to be significantly higher than the poor ones (p0.05). Conclusion: YouTubeTM videos on pediatric dental sedation seemed to be insufficient considering the study headings. Dental professionals and anesthesiologists should put more effort into improving the quality and reliability of the videos regarding pediatric dental sedation.

Amaç: Aileler, çocuklara uygulanan dental sedasyon da dâhil olmak üzere sağlık konularıyla ilgili bilgi edinmek için YouTubeTM gibi sosyal platformları tercih etmektedir. Bu çalışma, pediatrik dental sedasyon konusundaki YouTubeTM videolarının kalitesini, güvenilirliğini ve içeriğini ölçmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Arama terimi olarak 'sedation in pediatric dentistry' belirlenmiştir (Google Trends Application). Konu ile ilgili ilk olarak 149 video listelenmiş ve Tekdüzen Kaynak Bulucu bilgileri kaydedilmiştir. Dâhil edilme kriterlerine uygun olmayanlar çıkarıldıktan sonra kalan videolar üzerinde (n=55) Küresel Kalite Ölçeği [(Global Quality Scale 'GQS')] güvenilirlik ve içerik analizleri uygulanmıştır. Verilerin analizi için Shapiro-Wilk ve Mann-Whitney U testleri kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Analiz sonuçlarına göre incelenen videolar zayıf içerikli, orta seviye kalite ve güvenilirlikte bulundu. Zengin içerikli videoların GQS değerlerinin, zayıf içerikli videoların GQS değerlerine göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı düzeyde yüksek olduğu görülmektedir (p0,05). Sonuç: Pediatrik dental sedasyona ilişkin YouTubeTM videolarının yanlış bilgi içermemekle birlikte, incelenen çalışma konuları bakımından yetersiz olduğu görülmektedir. Diş hekimliği alanındaki klinisyen ve araştırmacıların ve bu konuda çalışan anestezi uzmanlarının, incelenen konuya dair videoların kalite, güvenilirlik ve içeriklerini geliştirmek için daha fazla özen göstermesi gerekmektedir.
