Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of repetitive oral health education on oral health knowledge, attitudes and behaviors of elementary school students. A final analysis of 111 untested individuals was made. The oral health knowledge and oral health behavior scores according to the presence or absence of oral health education showed a higher level than the school that did not perform oral health education for 3 years (p <0.01). Repeated and continuous oral health education of elementary school students has a great influence on oral health knowledge and behavioral change, so if the dental hygienists can stay and manage oral health care, the effect will be increased.

본 연구는 반복적이고 지속적인 구강보건교육이 초등학생의 구강보건지식, 태도, 행동에 미치는 효과를 확인하기 위해 실시하였으며, 1학년 때부터 3년간 년2회 구강보건교육을 반복적으로 시행한 129명과 구강보건교육을 미시행한 111명을 최종 분석하였다. 구강보건교육실시 유무에 따른 구강보건지식, 구강보건행동 점수에서는 3년간 구강보건교육을 반복적이고 지속적으로 실시한 학교가 실시하지 않은 학교보다 높은 수준을 보여 유의미한 차이를 나타내었고(p<0.01), 구강보건태도는 구강보건교육 실시학교에서 약간 점수가 높았으나 유의한 차이는 없었다. 초등학생의 반복적이고 지속적인 구강보건교육이 구강보건지식과 행동 변화에 많은 영향을 주므로 치위생전문가가 상주하여 지속적인 구강건강관리를 할 수 있다면 그 효과는 더욱 증대될 것이다.
