Perceived Influence of Social Media Among Specialist Dentists: A Pilot Cross-Sectional Study
Purpose:
To investigate patterns of social media (SM) use among dental specialists and to assess SM's perceived role in daily practice and patient care.
Materials And Methods:
A cross-sectional pilot paper survey was administered to specialist dentists in Greece (May-June 2024). The 23-item questionnaire covered four domains: demographics, personal SM use, professional-patient communication, and perceived impact on patient care. Descriptive statistics were reported as frequencies, medians (IQR), or means ± SD. Exploratory associations used Fisher's exact or χ² tests for categorical variables and Kruskal-Wallis or Wilcoxon tests for ordinal outcomes, with 95% confidence intervals. Statistical significance was set at p<0.05; all analyses were exploratory.
Results:
Forty-five dentists participated (66.7% women; median age 30 [IQR 10]); 64.4% were prosthodontists and 35.6% orthodontists. Most respondents (97.8%) had ≥1 SM.
