초록

연구 배경 : 구강건강은 전신건강에 중요한 영향을 미치며, 구강질환과 전신질환 간의 밀접한 연관성은 현재까지 지속적으로 보고되고 있다. 특히 치주질환은 심혈관질환, 당뇨병, 호흡기 질환 등 다양한 만성질환과 관련이 있다. 구강질환 예방을 위해 칫솔질뿐만 아니라 치실과 치간칫솔 등의 구강관리용품의 역할이 중요해지고 있다. 본 연구는 구강관리용품 사용이 한국 성인의 전신질환 유병률에 미치는 영향을 분석하고자 한다. 연구 방법 : 본 연구는 국민건강영양조사 제7기(2016-2018) 데이터를 활용하였다. 연구대상자는 만 19세 이상의 성인 13,199명으로 구성되었다. 독립변수는 구강관리용품 사용 여부로 정의하였으며, 종속변수는 의사 진단에 의한 전신질환 이환 여부로 설정하였다. 인구통계학적 변수, 건강 상태 및 행태 변수를 공변량으로 포함하여 다변량 로지스틱 회귀분석을 수행하였다. 결과 : 치실 사용 여부는 전신질환 이환과 유의미한 관련성을 보이지 않았다. 그러나 치간칫솔 미사용자는 이상지질혈증 이환 가능성이 22% 낮았다(OR 0.777, 95% CI 0.660-0.913). 치주질환이 있는 대상자 중 치실을 사용하지 않는 경우 심근경색 위험이 유의미하게 높았다(OR 11.488, 95% CI 1.438-91.772). 반면, 치간칫솔 미사용자는 여성과 65세 미만 대상자에서 이상지질혈증, 심근경색 및 협심증의 위험이 낮았다. 결론 : 본 연구는 구강관리용품 사용이 전반적인 전신질환 이환과의 연관성이 낮아 보이나, 심혈관계 질환과의 연관성은 확인할 수 있었다. 특히 심근경색의 위험도를 낮추기 위해서는 치주질환 예방 및 치료와 함께 구강위생관리가 중요하다. 향후 전향적 연구를 통해 구강건강과 전신질환 간의 인과관계를 명확히 규명할 필요가 있다.

Background: Oral health has a significant impact on systemic health, and the close association between oral and systemic diseases has been continuously reported. To prevent oral diseases, the role of oral hygiene products such as dental floss and interdental brushes, in addition to tooth brushing, is becoming increasingly important. This study aims to analyze the effect of using oral hygiene products on the lifetime prevalence of systemic diseases among Korean adults. Methods: This study utilized data from the 7th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2016-2018). The study population consisted of 13,199 adults aged 19 years and older. The independent variable was the use of oral hygiene products, and the dependent variable was the prevalence of systemic diseases diagnosed by a physician. Demographic variables, health status, and behavioral variables were included as covariates, and multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed. Results: The use of dental floss showed no significant association with the prevalence of systemic diseases. However, those who did not use interdental brushes had a 22% lower likelihood of dyslipidemia (OR 0.777, 95% CI 0.660-0.913). Among participants with periodontal disease, those who did not use dental floss had a significantly higher risk of myocardial infarction (OR 11.488, 95% CI 1.438-91.772). Conversely, those who did not use interdental brushes had lower risks of dyslipidemia, myocardial infarction, and angina, particularly among women and individuals under 65 years of age. Conclusion: This study found a low overall association between the use of oral hygiene products and the prevalence of systemic diseases, but there was a notable association with cardiovascular diseases. To reduce the risk of myocardial infarction, the prevention and treatment of periodontal disease, along with proper oral hygiene management, are crucial. Future prospective studies are needed to clearly establish the causal relationship between oral hygiene and systemic diseases.
