본 연구는 노인들의 구강건강상태와 관리실태가 자가건강평가수준(SRH)에 얼마나 영향을 미치는 지를 파악하기 위하여 부산광역시에 거주하는 65세노인 479명을 대상으로 구강검진과 1:1면접을 통한 설문조사를 실시하였다. 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 성별에서는 남자가 일반적 건강상태(p=0.033), 1년 전과 비교한 건강상태(p=0.029), 연령에서는 일반적 건강상태(p=0.004), 1년 전과 비교한 건강상태(p=0.011), 자가주택을 소유하고 있는 경우 일반적 건강상태(p<0.001), 1년 전과 비교한 건강상태(p<0.001), 신체적 건강상태(p<0.001), 정신적 건강상태(p<0.001)가 높았다. 2. 구강건강과 관련해서는 상실치아의 개수가 많을수록 일반적 건강상태(p=0.015), 치주염을 가지고 있는 경우 일반적 건강상태(p=0.020), 정신적 건강상태(p=0.032), 틀니가 상하모두 필요한 경우 일반적 건강상태(p=0.040)가 자가건강평가수준이 낮았다. 3. 건전치율이 65% 이상인 경우 일반적 건강상태(p=0.003), 1년 전과 비교한 건강상태(p=0.013), 신체적 건강상태(p=0.013), 기능치율이 89%이상인 경우 일반적 건강상태(p=0.012), 신체적 건강상태(p=0.004), 정신적 건강상태(p=0.017)에서 자가건강평가 수준이 높았다. 4. 전신질환의 수가 많을수록 자가건강평가수준이 낮았고, 구강증후증상의 수가 많을수록, 기능치율이 낮을수록 자가건강수준이 낮았다. 결과적으로, 전신질환의 수와 구강증후증상의 수는 부(-)의 영향, 기능치율은 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것을 알 수 있다. 결론적으로 노인들에게 있어 자가건강평가수준을 향상하기 위해서는 노인들의 건전치율과 기능치율을 높이기 위한 다양한 구강보건사업들이 체계적으로 이루어져야 하리라 사료된다.

Objectives : Thus this study attempted to look into the level of community residents' dental health and the state of their dental diseases and estimate the general dental health condition so that these data can be available as references in upcoming public dental health planning, and to provide fundamental data for promotion of the level of residents' dental health by performing dental health education. Methods : Among community residents who visited the department of Dental Hygiene of Shinsung University for scaling from March to May 2009, the data of total 346 subjects of 129 women and 217 men were selected, and DMFT rate, DMFT index, dental health capacity of the first permanent molar, and tooth morality rate were investigated. For statistical analysis, SPSS 14.0 was used, for general characteristics of the subjects, frequency analysis was conducted, for caries experience in the permanent teeth of the subjects, mean and standard deviation were calculated, for caries experience in the permanent teeth by sex and residence, independent t-test was performed, and for caries experience in the permanent teeth by age, one-way ANOVA was conducted. The significance level applied to these analyses was 0.05. Results : As a result of investigation and analysis on caries in the permanent teeth of community residents who visited the department for scaling in this study, the findings are as follows: 1. For sex, DMFT rate and tooth morality rate were found to be higher in women, while dental health capacity of the first permanent molar was found to be higher in men. 2. For age, DMFT rate and DMFT index were found to be highest in 40~49 years old, while DMFT rate, DMFT index, and tooth morality rate were found to be lowest in under 20 years old. Dental health capacity of the first permanent molar was found to be highest in under 20 years old, 20-29 years old, and 30-39 years old and found to be lowest in more than their sixties as 39.78 points(p<.000). Tooth morality rate was found to be highest in more than their sixties compared to other age groups.(p<.000). 3. For residence, DMFT rate and dental health capacity of the first permanent molar were found to be high in the Metropolitan area, while tooth morality rate was found to be high in Chungcheong area. Conclusions : Seen from the above-mentioned results, great importance shall be attached to the maintenance of residual teeth, and with this, efficient efforts are required to be made for upkeep and promotion of dental health.
