YouTubeTM is one popular website they may consult. To examine the quality of information offered by YouTubeTM for parents seeking information on feeding plate obturators for patients with CLP. A systematic search of YouTubeTM for videos containing information on feeding plates in CLP was conducted using the keywords ‘Feeding plate in CLP patients' and ‘obturators for feeding in CLP patients’. The usefulness of selected videos in providing adequate information was evaluated using a 10-point usefulness score. Most videos were uploaded by healthcare professionals (66.6%, n =6). Videos had generally low usefulness scores (mean: 1.88; range: 0.00-4.00). Viewers’ interactions with videos were not affected significantly by their usefulness. YoutubeTM videos do not provide complete information regarding importance, fabrication, and method of usage. Videos from reliable and authentic sources like various national and international pediatric and preventive dentistry organizations having comprehensive information about feeding plate obturators would be more beneficial.
