The purpose of this study was to compare and analyze the behavior status of oral health between dental hygiene and non-dental hygiene students. The subjects in this study were students from two different colleges that were respectively located in Seoul and Gwangju. In order to examine the necessity of oral-health education, the self-recorded questionnaires had been widely distributed and surveyed from June 2006 to May 2007. The following results were obtained on the basis of comparative analysis through the collected materials. 1. As a result of surveying the actual condition of managing oral health, regarding the frequency of tooth brush, the dental hygiene students were the largest in 3 times. And, the non-dental hygiene students were indicated to be the largest in two times(p < 0.01). 2. As for the experience of scaling, the dental hygiene students were the most in having experience(50.9%), and the non-dental hygiene students were the most in having no experience(56.8%)(p < 0.001). 3. As a result of examining about the experience of oral-health education, the dental hygiene students were many in a case of having experience. And, the non-dental hygiene students were many in a case of having no experience(p < 0.001). The findings of the study showed that in terms of the state of oral health care, the dental hygiene students who received a lot of oral health education excelled the other students who didn't.

This study was conducted to utilize as the fundamental data for the improvement in curriculum, practicum programs and educational facilities of four-year universities with dental hygiene department which have increased rapidly by through analyzing the satisfaction level of dental hygiene students in four-year and three-year colleges with their departments. The findings of the study were as follows: 1. The satisfaction level with their department of dental hygiene students who were surveyed was 3.18 out of possible five points, which was on the average. 2. As for satisfaction level with the departments by educational system, the students who were in four-year colleges in the metropolitan area expressed lower satisfaction than the students who were in local and three-year colleges. The three-year college students were more gratified with the curriculums than the four-year college students(t=2.03, p<0.05), and the latter was more satisfied with the educational facilities(t=-4.12, p<0.001) and interpersonal relationships(t=-3.07, p<0.01) than the former. 3. In the case of the three-year college students, those whose colleges were located in the metropolitan area were more contented with the educational facilities(t=5.28, p<0.001), and there were no significant differences in satisfaction level with other factors. 4. In the case of the four-year college students, the local college students were more contented with the curriculums(t=-5.39, p<0.001), educational facilities(t=-5.18, p<0.001) and the departments(t=-3.98, p<0.001) than their counterparts in the colleges located in the metropolitan area. In terms of satisfaction level with the department of dental hygiene, the four-year college students located in the metropolitan area expressed noticeably lower satisfaction with the curriculums than the local and three-year college students.

To this end, 196 students with an experience of clinical field training, who were enrolled in the department of dental hygiene in universities of Busan and Ulsan area. The collected data were analyzed by frequency analysis, correlation analysis and linear regression analysis using SPSS 24.0 program. The subjects' awareness level of key vocational competency was 3.38 points, while that of career decision making was 3.30 points. Among the sub-factors of key vocational competency, the awareness level of professional ethics was 3.46 points, which was the highest. As factors of key vocational competency affecting career decision making, interpersonal skills(p<0.01), skills for understanding groups(p<0.01), resource management skills(p<0.01), self-development skills(p<0.05), problem-solving skills(p<0.05), and mathematical skills(p<0.05) were found to be significant.

This study aimed to investigate the contamination rate of microorganisms by times after sterilization in mirrors, dental explorers, and pincettes which are the basic tools used in the dental clinic. 60 samples by each tool were used upon packaging them by 10 units. Contamination rate of microorganisms were tested using dry film media(3M Petrifilm Plates) which is a quick check upon collecting 10 samples right after sterilization, at Week 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. At Week 0 when was right after sterilization, no microorganism was detected in any tools while they were detected in 2 mirrors, 2 dental explorers, and 2 pincettes at Week 6. 2 to 4 colonies on average were detected in mirrors at Week 2 and 4, 1 to 2 colonies in explorers from Week 5, and no colony was found in pincettes until Week 5 but 1 to 2 colonies at Week 6. Based on these results, the needs of effective periods are suggested for the sterilized tools together with their safe usages.

Background: In order to emphasize the importance of clinical dental hygienists-led dental hygiene management processes for those with systemic diseases, we tried to identify systemic diseases affecting dental implants based on clinical data. Methods: In order to identify systemic diseases affecting dental implants, literature review was conducted from March 1 to May 31, 2023, and the search period was for research papers published in domestic and foreign academic journals from January 2000 to December 2020. Domestic databases used for search use RISS, Nuri Media(DBpia), and Korea Academic Information (http://www.papersearch.net ; KISS), while overseas databases searched Pubmed for dental implant failures, implants, systemic diseases, and Dental implant and system disease. Results: The cumulative survival rate of implants averaged 94.3 percent and the failure rate was 5.7 percent. Clinical analysis of systemic diseases related to implants accounted for the highest frequency with 13 (100.0%), followed by 8 (61.5%) studies on high blood pressure and smoking, 7 (53.8%) cardiovascular diseases, and 5 (38.5%). In addition, liver disease, thyroid abnormalities, blood abnormalities, organ transplants and infectious diseases were confirmed. Conclusion: Since unregulated systemic diseases are a risk factor for implant failure, clinical dental hygienists should continue to maintain healthy oral conditions by sharing information with patients during periodic preventive dental hygiene management processes such as dental hygiene assessment.
