The moderners of industrial society suffer from various stresses, which bring about increase in prevalence of temporomandibular disorders, oral mucosal disease and chronic neuropathic pain, therefore, the number of patients seeking help of those symptoms tend to increase. The purpose of this study was to discuss the importance of oral medicine related disease by investigating questions that appeared in cyber consultation of Kangnung National University Dental Hospital web site. Among the nearly 2000 questions, the rate of questions related to oral medicine was 20.92%, and the rate of questions related to other departments were oral and maxillofacial surgery 16.87%, conservative dentistry 16.67%, orthodontics 14.02%, prosthodontics 12.25%, periodontics 8.36%, pediatric dentistry 4.93%, preventive dentistry 2.08% and otherwise questions 3.90%. Among the 403 questions related to oral medicine, the frequent questions were oral mucosal diseases 44.17%, temporomandibular disorders 41.19%, halitosis 4.47%, xerostomia 3.23%, other orofacial pain 2.23%, forensic dentistry 1.49% and otherwise questions 2.98%. From the higher rate of questions related to oral medicine compared with other fields of dentistry, we would consider that the people are considerably concerned about the oral medicine related disease, such as oral mucosal diseases and temporomandibular disorders.

본 논문에서는 고등학생 교육대상자들의 특성을 고려하여 구강보건교육을 매스미디어를 활용한 교육매체를 직접 제작하여 지식전달인 지적 영역과 태도변화인 정의적 영역, 행동의 변화인 정신운동 영역을 살펴보았다. 이에 매스미디어를 활용한 보건교육의 장점은 더 개발하고, 단점은 보완하여 교육대상자들에게 흥미도를 높혀 관심을 가지고 행동의 변화를 보일 수 있도록 해야겠으며, 일회성인 교육매체 자료 보다는 사이버 공간에서도 교육대상자가 언제든지 다시 볼 수 있도록 하여 계속관리 교육이 되도록 할 수 있다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between entrance exam stress and oral care self-efficacy in girls high school. From June to July 2018, A self-reported questionnaire was administered to 192 high school students in the G area. The data were analyzed for independent t-test, one-way ANOVA and Pearson's correlation coefficient by using SPSS/WIN 21.0 program. Among the sub-sectors of entrance exam stress, exam tension/poor was the highest with 3.07 points, followed by Insufficient spare time stress 2.83 points, future uncertainty stress 2.57 points, and parent pressure stress 2.44 points. the variables related to exam tension/poor stress were academic performance (p<.01), family income level (p<.05), Subjective oral health status(p<.05), and daily brushing frequency(p<.01). The highest level of oral care self-efficacy was 3.13 points for brushing self-efficacy, followed by dental visits 2.80 points and interdental hygiene 2.64 points. As a result of analyzing the general characteristics and oral care self-efficacy, subjects related to brushing self-efficacy were subjective oral health status, caries snacking(daily), and caries drinks(daily)(p<.01). There were negative correlations between entrance exam stress and oral care self-efficacy. The higher the entrance stress, the lower the oral care self-efficacy. To prevent oral disease and increase oral care self-efficacy of students with high entrance stress, it is necessary to provide school oral health education programs that can facilitate oral health behaviors.

With today's heightened interest in quality of life, leisure and sports activities were popular in the general public. Accordingly, the incidence of oral and maxillofacial injury are also rising. Use of a mouth protector to prevent the trauma of the oral and maxillofacial region is growing in importance, and among the mouth protector the mouthguard is the most commonly used. Mouthguard has been suggested to protect injuries by (1) preventing tooth injuries by absorbing and deflecting blows to the teeth; (2) shielding the lips, tongue, and gingival tissues from laceration; (3) preventing opposing teeth from coming into violent contact; (4) providing the mandible with resilient support, which absorbs an impact that might fracture the unsupported angle or condyle of the mandible; (5) preventing neck and cerebral brain injuries. Although mouthguard is effective for prevention of oral and maxillofacial injury, it is not widespread to athletes or general public and they are lack of awareness about the importance of mouthguard. We present the types and materials of mouthguard, things to consider when mouthguard fabrication, and the usage. This should be helpful in awareness about the importance and popularization of mouthguard.

This study aims at finding which change there is of oral health promotion as investigating the oral health status in quality, diagnosing which effects knowledge and attitude of oral health has before and after the oral health education as developing and conducting the oral health education program for international marriage migrant women to form their oral health belief for improving oral health. This study consisted of each 51 of the experimental group and the controlled group at the multi-cultural family support center from $26^{th}$ of March, 2012 to $30^{th}$ of June, 2012 as the subjects, and pre-to-post investigated knowledge of oral and cognition. Also as it took follow-up examination of the clients who visited to the dentist with changing of their cognition, conducted matched-pair sample t-test and analysis of repeated measure variance. As the result, there were always the changes at the field of knowledge about oral, periodontal disease and toothbrush in awareness of oral health, and at the field of periodontal disease, dental caries, toothbrush, fluorine and bad breath in knowledge of oral health. The change of DMFT index, DT index has been reduced and FT index has been increased. As the result above, the oral health education program for international marriage migrant women has led to change awareness of oral health and knowledge, and the change of knowledge has influenced to a behavior, so there were the changes of periodontal status and DMFT index as well. This has been showing the importance of the program for oral health of international marriage migrant women. Moreover, while the oral health education program is developed in various aspects by offering the information for developing the oral health education program in future, it needs to run parallel prevention with treatment.

본 연구는, 기존의 나열식 분류체계의 문제점을 극복할 수 있는 GRAIL을 이용하여 두경부의 해부학적 구조물들 및 구강 악안면 영역의 주요 질병들과 관련된 치의학 개념들의 모델을 구축한 뒤, 완성된 치의학 개념 모델이 두경부의 해부학적 구조물들 및 구강 악안면 영역의 주요 질병들을 잘 표현할 수 있는지와 기존의 GRAIL 모델이 지닌 특징에 잘 부합하는지를 평가하고자 시행되었다. 서울대학교 치과병원 내원 환자 중 포괄적인 치과 치료 병력을 지닌 환자 150명의 치과 의무기록을 내용별로 분석하고, 각종 치의학 교과서와 기존의 의학용어 분류체계에서도 모델 구축에 필요한 치의학 용어를 선택하였다. 이들 자료를 바탕으로, GRAIL 모델 구축을 진행하고 구축된 모델을 평가할 수 있는 소프트웨어 프로그램인 'KnoME'에서 치의학 개념 모델을 구축하고 평가하여, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 환자 150명의 치과 의무기록을 내용별로 분석한 결과, 우선적으로 모델 구축이 필요한 치의학 용어로는, 해부학적 구조물의 경우 치아, 치은, 악관절, 입술, 턱, 혀 등의 순서로 나타났으며, 구강악안면 영역의 병소에서는 치아 우식증, 치주염, 치은염, 악관절 장애, 매복 지치, 치경부 마모 등의 순서로 나타났다. 2. GRAIL을 이용하여 치아, 치주조직, 구강점막조직, 치아 우식증, 치수 및 치근단 병소, 치주질환, 구강점막질환의 모델 구축을 시행한 결과, 치의학 개념간의 다양한 관계가 대다수 잘 표현되었다. 그러나, 구강 악안면 영역의 해부학적 구조물에 대한 공간 정의의 한계성과 구강 악안면 질환의 진행 양상에 있어서 표현의 어려움이 관찰되었다. 이러한 부분은 GRAIL을 치의학 분야에 적용할 때, 극복해야 할 한계로 나타났다. 3. 치의학 개념들에 관한 다양한 질의를 시행한 후 그 응답 내용을 평가한 결과, 완성된 모델 내에서 치의학 개념의 자동적인 분류가 이루어 졌으며, 다양한 목적의 검색이 가능하였다. 이와 같은 사실로 미루어 보아서, 완성된 모델은 기존의 GRAIL 모델의 특성에 잘 부합되는 것으로 생각되었다.

This study used a structured questionnaire to analyze the effects of oral habits and stress on temporomandibular disorders in high school students. A total of 339 students attending high schools in Ulsan agreed to participate in the study. Data was analyzed using the SPSS Statistics ver. 18.0 for Windows program, t-test, one-way ANOVA, correlation, and regression analysis. Our results reveal that the temporomandibular disorder index is statistically correlated with the oral habit index, school life stress index, family life stress index, interpersonal stress index, and egosphere stress index (p≤0.01). The oral habit index had maximum influence on the temporomandibular disorder index. Moreover, higher the stress level in egosphere stress, greater significant differences were observed in the temporomandibular disorder index (p≤0.01). In other words, persistence of oral habits and non-addressal of stress increased the likelihood of experiencing temporomandibular disorders in adulthood. This was determined by the regression formula Y (temporomandibular disorder index) = 2.563 + 0.550X1 (oral habit index) + 0.134X2 (egosphere stress index). Thus, bad oral habits and stress in adolescence can be the potential cause of jaw joint disorders in adulthood. We believe that measures are needed to actively recognize and improve oral habits, and properly cope with stress during adolescence.
