Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the oral health status and knowledge of dental laboratory technology student for the community to improve oral health and oral health education to help. The subjects in this study were 160 students in dental laboratory technology at the University located in Chung-cheong and surveyed from November 2010 to December 2010. The finding of the study were as follows: The differences in oral care knowledge according general characteristics of subjects was statistically significant to the gender was higher in men than women, age was higher and higher the grade was higher in grade level(p<0.05). The differences in oral care knowledge according oral health status of subjects was statistically significant to regarding the frequency of tooth brushing was highest rate in five times, method was on the side tooth higher and using the dental floss and interdental brush are used by the higher availability(p<0.05). Thus, in the classroom oral health education and continuous learning from the people know that oral health care could differ. Oral health education in local communities to increase opportunities and people will need to improve oral health.

이 연구의 목적은 치기공과 학생들의 구강위생관리 실태 및 지식을 파악하여 지역사회의 구강건강을 향상시킬 수 있는 동기를 부여하고, 구강보건 교육에 도움이 되고자 함이다. 조사대상자는 충청도 소재 대학의 치기공과에 재학 중인 학생 160명을 대상으로 2010년 11월 10부터 12월 9일까지 설문조사를 실시하였고, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 일반적 특성에 따른 구강관리 지식차이는 성별로 남자가 여자보다 높았고, 연령별로는 연령이 높아질수록 높았고, 학년별 항목에서는 학년이 높을수록 높았고, 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다(p<0.05). 구강위생관리 실태에 따른 구강관리지식차이는 일일 잇솔질 횟수가 5회 이상에서 가장 높았고, 잇솔질 방법은 옆으로 치아만 한다에서 높았다. 치간 칫솔 이용유무 항목에서는 사용한다가 높았고, 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다(p<0.05). 따라서 전반적인 구강위생관리 실태는 구강보건교육의 경험이 있는 치기공과 학생들이 양호한 것으로 나타났으며, 이를 통해 수업시간에 계속적으로 구강보건교육을 받고 익히는 사람들에게서 구강건강관리가 달라지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이에 지역사회에서도 구강보건교육의 기회를 확대시켜 국민의 구강건강을 향상시키도록 해야하겠다.
