OBJECTIVE
To investigate the quality of online information provided by dental-related websites regarding periodontal surgery.
METHODS
The term "Gum Surgery" was entered into three search engines (Google, Yahoo, and Bing). The content of websites satisfying selection criteria was assessed with five validated quality of information tools (DISCERN, The Patient Education Materials Assessment Tool [PEMAT], Journal of the American Medical Association [JAMA] benchmarks, and HONCode and @TRUST certification). The Simple Measure of Gobbledygook (SMOG) was used to evaluate the readability of content.
RESULTS
A total of 55 websites satisfied selection criteria. The mean (SD) DISCERN score for all website categories was 2.89 (0.57). The quality of information related to the risks of each treatment scored poorly in most websites. The healthcare portals obtained the highest mean PEMAT score of 71.74%, a statistically significant outcome. Healthcare portal websites also recorded the highest mean (SD) JAMA score of 3.72 (0.75) out of 4. The mean (SD) SMOG score was 9.56 (1.07). Cohen's κ inter-rater reliability for DISCERN and PEMAT scores were 0.75 and 0.79, respectively.
CONCLUSION
The information available online about periodontal surgery was variable and difficult to read, falling short of established standards for accuracy, reliability, and credibility. Vital information was often omitted.
目的
调查牙科相关网站提供的有关牙周手术的在线信息质量。
方法
在三个搜索引擎（谷歌、雅虎和必应）中输入“牙龈手术”一词。使用五种经过验证的信息质量工具（DISCERN、患者教育材料评估工具[PEMAT]、《美国医学会杂志》[JAMA]基准以及HONCode和@TRUST认证）对符合选择标准的网站内容进行评估。使用简化的难词统计量（SMOG）来评估内容的可读性。
结果
共有55个网站符合选择标准。所有网站类别的平均（标准差）DISCERN评分为2.89（0.57）。大多数网站中，与每种治疗风险相关的信息质量得分较低。医疗保健门户网站获得的平均PEMAT得分最高，为71.74%，这是一个具有统计学意义的结果。医疗保健门户网站在4分制中的平均（标准差）JAMA得分也最高，为3.72（0.75）。平均（标准差）SMOG得分为9.56（1.07）。DISCERN和PEMAT评分的科恩κ评分者间信度分别为0.75和0.79。
结论
在线提供的有关牙周手术的信息参差不齐且难以阅读，未达到准确性、可靠性和可信度的既定标准。重要信息常常被遗漏。
