To assess the content of YouTube videos on the management of orthodontic emergencies during the COVID-19 pandemic.
YouTube was systematically searched using the keywords "orthodontic emergency," "orthodontic homecare," "braces emergency," and "braces homecare." The first 100 videos for each keyword were assessed. The upload source, number of views, likes and dislikes, duration, and global quality score were extracted. Home and clinical advice reliability was evaluated using the reliability score (DISCERN) according to the COVID-19 orthodontic emergencies protocol published by the British Orthodontic Society.
The majority of the videos were found to be poor quality. Home care advice showed higher reliability than clinical advice. Orthodontic emergency videos uploaded by healthcare professionals had higher reliability.
Many types of orthodontic emergencies have received little attention on YouTube, and more useful and reliable educational videos should be uploaded in the event of future pandemics.
评估在新冠疫情期间YouTube上有关正畸急症管理的视频内容。
使用关键词“正畸急症”“正畸家庭护理”“牙套急症”和“牙套家庭护理”对YouTube进行系统搜索。对每个关键词的前100个视频进行评估。提取上传来源、观看次数、点赞和差评数量、时长以及整体质量评分。根据英国正畸学会发布的新冠疫情正畸急症协议，使用可靠性评分（DISCERN）评估家庭和临床建议的可靠性。
发现大多数视频质量较差。家庭护理建议的可靠性高于临床建议。医疗保健专业人员上传的正畸急症视频可靠性更高。
许多类型的正畸急症在YouTube上很少受到关注，在未来发生疫情时应上传更多有用且可靠的教育视频。
