초록

목적: 본 연구는 치과 보철물 거래 플랫폼 서비스의 중요성을 이해하고, 보다 넓은 적용을 위해 필수 요소를 파악하는 것을 목표로 하였다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 치과 의사, 치과 기공사, 치과 위생사, 그리고 치과 산업 종사자들을 대상으로 치과 보철물 주문 및 관련 플랫폼 서비스에 대한 견해를 평가하기 위해 설문 조사를 실시하였다(총 53명). 이를 위해 설문지는 치과 전문가의 검토를 거쳐 작성되었고, Cronbach's alpha coefficient를 사용하여 설문지의 신뢰도를 평가하였다. 요인 분석을 통해 총 변동의 88.417%를 설명하는 5개 범주의 57개 요인을 도출했다. 설문 조사는 온라인 설문지 플랫폼을 통해 실시되었으며, 데이터 분석은 통계 소프트웨어를 사용하여 one-way analysis of variance과 Tukey's honestly significant difference test을 사용하여 수행되었다(α = 0.05). 결과: 주문 시에 정확한 정보 입력, 효과적인 의사소통, 변형 없는 치과 인상체 전달, 데이터 전송 및 저장의 편리성, 안정적이고 합리적인 가격의 플랫폼 서비스 제공이 필수 요소로 확인되었다(P < 0.05). 또한, 이러한 항목의 중요성에는 연령, 치과 직업, 경력 경험에 따른 유의한 차이가 관찰되었다(P < 0.05). 결론: 치과 보철물 주문 플랫폼 서비스에 대한 치과 종사자들의 요구사항은 안정성과 경제성, 그리고 치과 보철물 데이터 전송 및 저장의 용이성이었다. 이러한 결과는 앞으로 치과 보철물 주문 및 관련 플랫폼 서비스의 개발 및 개선을 위한 중요한 지표가 될 수 있다.

Purpose: This study aimed to gain better understanding of the importance of dental prosthesis order platform services and to identify the essential elements for their enhancement and wider adoption among dental professionals. Materials and Methods: A survey was conducted to assess the perspectives of dentists, dental technicians, dental hygienists, and dental industry professionals toward dental prosthesis ordering and associated platform services (a total of 53 respondents). The questionnaire was devised after an expert review and assessed for reliability using Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Factor analysis revealed that 57 factors across five categories accounted for 88.417% of the total variance. The survey was administered through an online questionnaire platform, and data analysis was conducted using a statistical software, employing one-way analysis of variance and Tukey's honestly significant difference test (α = 0.05). Results: The essential elements identified were accurate information input, effective communication, delivery of distortion-free impressions, convenience in data transmission and storage, development of stable and affordable platform services (P < 0.05). Furthermore, significant differences were observed in the importance of these items based on age, dental profession, and career experience (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The dental prosthesis ordering platform services, the requirements of dental personnel were stability, economic efficiency, and ease of transmitting and storing prosthesis data. The findings can serve as important indicators for the development and improvement of dental prosthesis order platform services.
