Özet

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the content and educational quality of videos on YouTube about mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) in endodontics. Methods: YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/) was searched for videos using the search term “end- odontics, MTA,” which was determined using Google Trends. The video contents were analyzed under three categories (etiology, procedure, and prognosis) and the Global Quality Score (GQS). The descrip- tive statistics were evaluated, and the statistical analyses included Fleiss Kappa, Kruskal-Wallis, and Tam- hane’s T2 test. Results: The total number of videos, 67.5% were uploaded by specialists. The content completeness was significantly different among the uploaders (4.2±1.69). The highest mean GQS was found for videos published by specialists (4.03±1.09). The videos generally shared content about furcation perforation repair, management of teeth with open apex and apical plug technique, and product presentations. Conclusion: Specialists should post more videos focused on information about MTA in root canal treat- ment and regenerative endodontics.
