The purpose of this study is to cover dental hygienists who work for metropolitan dental hospitals or clinics in Seoul city, Incheon city and Gyeonggi province from January to April 2009 and profile their awareness of Long-term Senior Care Insurance System (hereinafter called 'LSCI (System)', so that it may provide material reference data to contribute to expanding and establishing oral health medical services in the framework of LSCI System. As a result, this study could come to the following conclusions: 1. It was found that the highest priority of dental hygienists' visiting oral hygienic services under LSCI System was focused on 'caring and preventive treatment', and their secondary priority was focused upon 'oral health education.' 2. In response to a question item about whether dental hygienists need dentist's prescription in written before performing their visiting oral hygienic services, it was found that 38.2% dental hygienists answered 'Yes (necessary)' and 61.8% answered 'No (unnecessary).' 3. In response to a question item about whether dental hygienists may open up long-term senior care center, it was found that absolute majority of dental hygienists (93.4%) answered 'No' and only 6.6% dental hygienists answered 'Yes.' The standardized professional education are thought to be needed to be developed aiming at the success in oral-hygiene service within a LSCI, by strengthening professionalism in dental hygienists.

This study examined in what category that the knowledge dimension and the cognitive processes dimension are described based on 'A revision o Bloom's taxonomy of educational objectives' in oral health education textbooks. Oral health education and practice from Educational Objectives of Dental Hygiene Department(Korea dental hygienist Prof Council, 2009) were selected to analyze a textbook, the body contents was analyzed in the knowledge dimension, and the activity was analyzed in cognitive processes dimension. Three experts were selected as a corder for reliable analysis. As a result of this study, the knowledge dimension in oral health education textbook was focused on the categories of factual knowledge and conceptual knowledge in textbook analysis based on 'A revision of Bloom's taxonomy of educational objectives', and the category dimension of 'understand' showed to be the most for the cognitive processes dimension. Moreover, there was no 'meta cognitive knowledge' that conforms to a higher-order thinking and the category dimensions of 'analyze', 'evaluate', and 'create' took very low proportion or did not exist. Conclusion, Oral health education textbooks were analyzed to fragmentary and Memorizing the level knowledge. Thus we have to develop oral health education textbooks reflected a variety of cognitive and knowledge dimension.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the factors related to xerostomia in patients with systemic diseases, and the results were analyzed through t-test, ANOVA, and multiple linear regression analysis. There were 62 respondents (56.9%) who reported dry mouth and the season of the most severe dry mouth was reported to be the highest during winter. According to the analysis made in the relationship of xerostomia with the awareness of general health and health behavior, the group that understood their own health poorly, had more than two kinds of diseases, and had been administered more than two kinds of daily medication showed higher xerostomia. Also, those who experienced desperation, had high dryness in other parts of the body, and heavy snoring were more aware of xerostomia (p<0.05). According to the analysis made in the relationship between xerostomia and awareness of oral health state, the group that understood their oral health poorly and had pain in the oral mucous membrane and halitosis was more aware of xerostomia (p<0.05). According to the analysis made in the relationship between quality of life and xerostomia, the group that showed high level of problem in daily living and stress and were self-conscious and felt tense due to halitosis reported more xerostomia (p<0.05). Finally, xerostomia was most correlated with consciousness of the eyes of others due to halitosis followed by the number of transferred systemic diseases and stress level. Based on such results, xerostomia was understood to be an obstacle in maintaining favorable social life and health. Since xerostomia was shown to be related to the number of transferred systemic diseases, the dental professions are asked to further improve their understanding not only on oral health but also systemic diseases. Therefore, these efforts are expected to prevent xerostomia and reduce various complications caused by xerostomia.

내인성 산화질소는 산화질소 합성효소에 의하여 합성되며 여러 분비선에서 다양한 기능을 하리라 추측되고 있다. 구강주위 외분비선은 형태적으로 유사하나 분비물의 성분과 분비량은 서로 달라 이들 조직에서 산화질소 동위효소의 분포와 기능을 추론함은 흥미 있는 일이다. 또한 구강주위 외분비선과 분비선의 지배신경의 산화질소동위효소의 분포에 관한 보고는 희박하다. 본 연구는 흰쥐구강 주위 외분비조직, 즉 3대 타액선, 혀의 소타액선, 누선 그리고 구강점막의 피지선과 지배신경 및 신경절에서 eNOS와 nNOS의 분포를 면역조직화학 방법에 의하여 관찰하여 다음의 결과를 얻었다. nNOS는 악하선신경절, 대타액선의 분비도관 주위의 신경절후신경섬유, 혀의 소타액선 주위의 신경절후섬유, 누선에서 강한 양성반응을 보였다. nNOS는 대타액선과 근상피세포에서 중등도의 양성반응을 보였고 이중 이하선에서 반응이 가장 약하였으며, 피지선의 분비관에서 약한 반응을 보였다. 그러나 상교감신경절과 삼차신경절, 소타액선의 분비관 및 대,소 타액선의 선포에서는 반응이 매우 미약하거나 관찰되지 않았다. eNOS는 혈관의 내피세포와 대타액선의 분비관, 누선의 분비관 및 선포에서 강한 양성 반응을 보였고, 근상피세포에서 중등도의 반응을, 피지선에서 약한 반응을 보였다. 모든 신경절과 신경섬유에서 eNOS의 반응은 음성이었고 타액선의 일부 선포에서는 미약한 면역반응을 보였다. 이상의 결과 eNOS에 의해 합성된 NO는 악안면영역의 외분비선에서 혈류량의 조절과 분비도관의 기능 조절에 관여하고, nNOS에 의한 NO는 외분비선의 자율신경계에서 신경전달물질로의 기능과 분비도관에서의 분비기능 조절에 관여함을 시사하였다.

This study conducted oral examinations and individual interviews on migrant multi-cultural family women in Daegu and measured their socio-demographic characters, oral health conditions and OHIP-14 in an aim to investigate the relevance between the oral health of migrant multi-cultural family women living in some big cities and their quality of life. Based on data finally collected from 189 women, the t-test, ANOVA and binary logistic regression analysis were conducted and the conclusions are as follows: The average number of decayed teeth was 2.23, loss teeth was 1.48, and treated teeth was 5.58. Women from the Philippines had more number of loss teeth than those from other countries, and women from China relatively had a small number of filled permanent teeth. The quality of life related to oral health was found to be poor in proportion to the number of loss teeth. A comparison of life quality related to oral health depending on loss teeth showed that life quality related to oral health was lowest in the areas of mental discomfort, physical ability decrease, mental ability decrease, social ability decrease and social disadvantage. Life quality related to oral health was found to be low in proportion to the number of permanent teeth with decay experience and poor monthly household income, which shows that the number of permanent teeth with decay experience and monthly income are mostly related to life quality related to oral health. As migrant multi-cultural family women's life quality related to oral health is low in proportion to the number of loss teeth and decayed teeth, it needs to develop a program to improve their oral healthrelated life quality and conduct follow-up research to verify its effect.

Miniplate의 사용은 Champy등의 보고 이후 구강외과 영역에 있어서 외상 혹은 악교정수술등 많은 분야에 이용되기 시작했다. 전통적인 악간고정 방법에 비해 miniplate는 사용하기 쉽고, 정확한 해부학적 정복 및 고정을 가능케 하며 결과적으로 빠른 치유를 가능케 한다는 장점들을 갖고 있다. 그러나 감염, wound dehiscence, 부식, 나사의 헐거워짐, 주위조직의 변색 그리고 stress shielding effect등의 후유증들이 보고되어 왔으며 가장 무해한 금속이라고 알려진 titanium 또한 주위조직 및 lung, spleen, liver 그리고 kidney 등과 같은 조직으로 metal을 전이시키는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 특히 안와골 주변과 같은 상부 연조직이 얇은 곳에 miniplate를 사용할 경우 miniplate가 만져지거나 보일수도 있다는 점이 보고되었으며 따라서 술후 사용되었던 miniplate를 제거 해야만 할 것인가가 또한 주된 관심사로 보고되고 있다. 이에 저자는 이러한 금속성 miniplate의 단점을 개선하고자 자가 두개골을 이용한 플레이트를 고안하였다. '자가 두개골 플레이트'의 적응증은, enophthalmos 개선의 목적으로 두개골을 채취해 임플란트로 사용하는, enophthalmos를 동반한 관골 및 안와골의 복합골절환자에 있어 두개골의 추가채취가 가능한 경우가 될 수 있겠다. 자가 두개골을 이용해 플레이트를 고안하려고 본 증례에서의 시도는 구강외과 영역에 있어서 자가 두개골이 골편이 고정재료로도 쓰일 수 있다는 가능성을 보여주었다는 점에서 의미가 있다고 저자는 생각한다.
