Assesment of Youtube™ Videos about all-on-four implant supported fixed prostheses maintenance using the Global Quality Score, the DISCERN tool, and Journal of American Medical Association benchmarks

Abstract

Objectives: The aim of the study is to evaluate the information on “all-on-four fixed implant prostheses maintenance” videos shared on Youtube. Materials and Methods: A search was made on YouTube at 09:00 on August 14, 2023, with the search term "all-on-four fixed implant prostheses maintenance". Videos uploaded in the last year are sorted by relevance. The first 60 videos were viewed and analyzed for content by 2 independent prosthodontists. GQS (Global Quality Score), DISCERN, and JAMA (Journal of the American Medical Association) scales were used for the evaluation of the videos. Results: Some of the videos obtained for the study were excluded from evaluation because they did not meet the "all-on-four fixed implant prostheses maintenance" requirements (n=39). A statistically significant relationship was found between GQS scores and DISCERN scores (p<0.05) that as the DISCERN score increases, the GQS score increases. Also, videos with DISCERN scores of 4 and 5 are longer than videos with scores of 3. JAMA scores of videos with a longer duration and more time since they were uploaded were found to be statistically significantly higher (p<0.05). Conclusions: The quality of Youtube videos are generally poor. Patients should consider this when they want to obtain information about “all-on-four fixed implant prostheses maintenance" from YouTube.
