This study aimed to provide basic data for oral health promotion in adults by analyzing causal relationships for oral health practice determinants. A total of 204 questionnaires obtained from adults living in Busan and Gyeongnam area were analyzed to verify the study model with the Smart PLS v2.0 M2 software. Among oral health belief factors, the severity of and susceptibility to oral disease and benefit of oral care behavior affected oral health-related self-efficacy. The self-efficacy on ordinary oral health care behavior significantly affected overall oral health practice. The severity of and susceptibility to oral disease and benefit of oral disease prevention behavior affected toothbrushing habit and oral examination and training through toothbrushing-related self-efficacy. Therefore, the increased oral health-related self-efficacy through strategic efforts, including various training media development, with improved awareness of oral health belief by continuous oral health care program development will lead to continuous oral health practice in adults.

한국인에서 치아를 상실하는 원인의 46.4%는 치아우식증이고, 38.1%는 치주병이며, 치아우식증은 주로 국민학교 학령기에 발생되고, 치주병은 대개 국민학교 졸업기를 전후하여 발생되기 시작한다. 따라서 우리나라 국민의 구강건강기틀은 국민학교 학령기에 잡힌다고 할 수 있다. 그리고 학생은 학교라는 특수 집단사회에서 일반국민과는 다른 생태를 가지고 있다. 그러므로 국민건강을 합리적으로 발전시키기 위해서는 학교구강보건으로부터 개발해 나아가야 한다. 이러한 관점에서 학교구강보건에 관하여 검토해보도록 한다.

치면세균막관리는 치주병과 치아우식증을 예방하는 데 필수적이다. 이러한 치면세균막관리는 자가관리와 전문가관리로 구분할 수 있는데, 이 두가지를 병행하였을 때 특히 건강한 치주를 유지하는데 도움을 준다. 자가관리는 1회성 교육으로는 불충분하며 체계적인 반복교육이 필요하다. 전문가관리는 대상자의 구강상태에 따라 일정한 주기로 계속 시행되어야 하며 $3{\sim}6$개월 주기가 바람직하다. 반복교육과 계속관리과정으로 진행되는 자가 및 전문가 치면세균막 관리 중에 대상자의 구강병 위험요소에 따라 불소도포와 치면열구 전색 등이 제공될 수 있다.

The average stimulated saliva flow rate was 9.41ml, and they got a mean of 9.52 in the buffering capacity of saliva. The average glucose clearance time was a mean of 12.02. When they took a streptococcus mutans colony count test, 80.1 percent belonged to the low-risk group(<$10^5$), and 82.6 percent belonged to the low-risk group(<$10^5$) when a lactobacillus test was conducted. There was a positive correlation between the irritant saliva fraction and the non-irritating saliva and saliva buffering ability. In the fluoride application experience, the glucose retention time was 10.66 minutes and the fluoride application experience was 13.33 minutes. (P = .008). The importance of oral health, which is directly linked to general health, should be emphasized in order to improve the quality of life as well as the life expectancy.
