Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors influencing on the denture satisfaction in the elderly with removable denture in Jeonju(N=157). The average of denture satisfaction was 3.62. As for denture satisfaction per sub-factors was in order of masticatory satisfaction(3.81), fixation satisfaction(3.66) and general satisfaction(3.46). The convergence factors on the denture satisfaction were the perceived oral health state, leisure activity, monthly pocket money, and visiting dental clinic. As a result, the influencing factors of denture satisfaction were general characteristics of denture wearers rather than denture related characteristics. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the social factors(leisure life, economy level, etc.) of denture wearers in order to increase the denture satisfaction.

본 연구는 전주시에 거주하는 가철성 의치장착 노인의 의치만족도에 영향을 미치는 융합적 요인을 조사하고자 하였다(157명). 의치만족도 전체 평균은 3.62로 나타났다. 의치만족도의 세부요인별 만족도는 저작 만족도(3.81), 의치고정 만족도(3.66), 일반적 만족도(3.46) 순이었다. 의치만족도에 영향을 미치는 융합적 요인은 주관적 구강건강상태, 여가활동 여부, 한 달 용돈, 의치관련 정기적 치과방문이었다. 결과적으로 의치만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인은 의치와 관련된 특징보다는 의치장착자의 일반적 특성이 대부분이었다. 따라서 의치의 만족도를 높이기 위해 의치장착자의 사회적 요인(여가생활, 경제적 수준 등) 에도 관심을 기울일 필요가 있다고 생각된다.
