본 연구는 초등학생의 구강증상 경험 및 구강건강행위와 구강건강상태를 파악하여, 구강보건교육프로그램의 기초자료를 제공하고자 화성시에 위치한 초등학교 1, 4학년 학생 215명을 대상으로 구강검진 및 설문조사를 실시하였으며, 수집된 자료를 SPSS Win 12.0 프로그램을 이용하여 분석한 결과, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 아동의 영구치우식유병자율은 57.2%이었으며, 성별로는 남학생 61.1%, 여학생 53.3%가 우식치아를 보유하고 있었고, 학년별로는 1학년 56.0%, 4학년 58.1%가 우식치아를 보유하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 2. 성별에 따른 구강증상경험 중 '잇몸에서 피가 난다'고 응답한 남학생은 15.7%이었고, 여학생은 28.0%로 성별에 따른 유의한 차이가 나타났다(p<0.05). 3. 학년별에 따른 구강증상 경험 중 '차가운 음식을 먹을 때 이가 시리다'고 응답한 4학년생이 19.4%, 1학년생은 8.8%로 학년별 유의한 차이를 보였다.(p<0.05). 4. 학년별에 따른 구강건강행위 중 1일 잇솔질 횟수(p<0.05), 1일 간식섭취 횟수(p<0.05), 치과내원 경험(p<0.01)이 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 5. 구강건강행위 중 잇솔질 횟수는 2회가 50.2%로 가장 많았으며, 1일 간식섭취 횟수는 2회(70.2%), 불소함유 치약사용은 사용한다(60.9%), 치과내원 경험은 있다(60.0%)는 응답이 가장 높게 나타났다.
