Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a qualidade e a confiabilidade de vídeos do YouTube sobre hipersensibilidade dentinária. A busca foi realizada na plataforma dos Estados Unidos em 24 de janeiro de 2025, identificando os 200 vídeos mais relevantes, dos quais foram incluídos aqueles com duração entre 4 e 20 minutos. Foram coletados dados sobre duração, visualizações, curtidas, comentários, data de publicação, fonte, conteúdo e terapias mencionadas. O engajamento foi analisado utilizando métricas como taxa de visualização, número de curtidas e comentários, enquanto a qualidade informacional e a confiabilidade foram avaliadas com uma lista de verificação personalizada, a ferramenta DISCERN modificada e a Escala Global de Qualidade, com análises estatísticas (p < 0,05). Dos 200 vídeos iniciais, 171 foram excluídos por idioma, duplicação ou irrelevância, restando 29 vídeos, com média de 23.104 visualizações, 499 curtidas e 9,04 minutos de duração. Apenas 31,03% foram produzidos por dentistas ou canais da área, e 48,28% eram voltados ao público leigo. Cremes dentais dessensibilizantes e agentes dessensibilizantes foram os tratamentos mais citados (58,62%). A maioria dos vídeos (89,65%) não apresentava fontes, e temas importantes, como etiologia e tratamento, frequentemente estavam ausentes. As métricas de engajamento não se correlacionaram com os escores de qualidade, embora vídeos com promoção de produtos tenham apresentado diferenças significativas (p < 0,05). De modo geral, a qualidade foi baixa a moderada, levantando preocupações quanto à confiabilidade e precisão científica das informações.
