Abstract

Objective: The study aimed to analyze the public interest in wisdom teeth-related search terms as well as regional and seasonal trends based on information from the Google search engine.

Methods: With the help of the online search query tool, Google Trends, the public interest in the primary search term "wisdom teeth" for the timeframe between January 1st, 2004 and September 31st, 2021 was analyzed. To do so, a country-specific search was conducted in English-speaking countries (the USA, the UK, Canada, and Australia) in the northern and southern hemispheres. The extracted time series was examined for reliability, and a Cosinor analysis evaluated the statistical significance of seasonal interest peaks.

Results: The reliability of averaged time series data on the search term "wisdom teeth" was excellent in all examined countries. In all countries analyzed, "wisdom teeth removal" was one of the most common related search terms. Significant interest peaks for wisdom teeth-related search terms were found in Canada and the USA during summer (p < .001). In Canada and the USA, significant seasonal patterns with the highest interest during the summer months, could be displayed.

Conclusion: This phenomenon could be caused by increased wisdom teeth-related complaints induced by seasonal climate changes.

公众对智齿相关网络查询的兴趣和季节性高峰--谷歌趋势分析。
研究目的本研究旨在根据谷歌搜索引擎提供的信息,分析公众对智齿相关搜索词的兴趣以及地区和季节性趋势:借助在线搜索查询工具 "谷歌趋势",分析了 2004 年 1 月 1 日至 2021 年 9 月 31 日期间公众对主要搜索词 "智齿 "的兴趣。为此,对南半球和北半球的英语国家(美国、英国、加拿大和澳大利亚)进行了国别搜索。对提取的时间序列进行了可靠性检查,并通过 Cosinor 分析评估了季节性兴趣峰值的统计意义:结果:在所有受检国家,"智齿 "这一搜索词的平均时间序列数据的可靠性都非常好。在所有分析的国家中,"智齿拔除 "都是最常见的相关搜索词之一。在加拿大和美国,与智齿相关的搜索词在夏季出现了明显的兴趣高峰(p < .001)。在加拿大和美国,可以看到明显的季节性模式,夏季的搜索兴趣最高:这一现象可能是由于季节性气候变化引起的智齿相关投诉增加所致。
