Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between stress and oral symptoms, and quality of life in university students. This survey was performed on 452 university students in the Daejeon area. The research was conducted during 2 weeks in June 2016 using a self-reported questionnaire. The data were analyzed by PASW Statistics ver. 18.0. According to the findings of the study, higher levels of stress were detected in girls than in boys (p<0.05). Stress had a significant impact on the symptoms of dry mouth, bad breath, and temporomandibular pain (p<0.05). The high-stress group experienced a negative impact on oral impacts on daily performance (OIDP) scores as compared to the group with lower stress. Stress had a significantly positive correlation with dry mouth, bad breath, temporomandibular joint (TMJ). OIDP was a significant positive correlation with dry mouth, bad breath, TMJ and stress. The findings of the study showed that stress exerted a significant influence on the oral symptoms and quality of life in university student.

스트레스, 구강건강, 구강건강관련 삶의 질 연관성 분석을 위해 2016년 6월 2주 동안 D지역 대학생 452명을 대상으로 조사한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 스트레스는 여학생이 남학생보다 높게 조사되었고(p<0.05), 스트레스 상위군이 하위군보다 구강건조증, 구취, TMJ 통증 인식이 높게 조사되었으며(p<0.05), 스트레스 상위군이 하위군보다 OIDP에 부정적 영향을 경험하는 것으로 조사되었다(p<0.05). 스트레스와 구강건강, OIDP 상관관계 분석결과 스트레스는 구강건조증, 구취, TMJ 통증과 통계적으로 유의한 양의 상관관계가 있었고, OIDP는 구강건조증, 구취, TMJ 통증, 스트레스와 통계적으로 유의한 양의 상관관계가 있었다. 이와 같이 스트레스는 구강건강, 구강건강관련 삶의 질에 부정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 조사되었다. 그러므로 대학생들의 스트레스 대처능력과 자가구강관리능력을 향상시켜 심신이 건강한 사회인으로 성장할 수 있도록 교육이 이루어져야 할 것이다.
