A substantialmajority (83.5%) of the participants reported that they always used social media to view dentistry-related content, and 69.8%of the dentists felt that patients who use social media have better oral health awareness.

Conclusions: An extremely high percentage of the younger populationin Bahrain is using various social media to discuss dentistry. This engagement should be wisely managed to promotedentistry-related information sharing, which can lead to increased awareness related to overall dental health.
