Background: In this study, we investigated the changes and factors that affect daily health behaviors due to COVID-19 among adolescents. We intend to provide basic data so that a systematic and comprehensive health education program that includes physical and oral health can be made. Methods: This study was a secondary data analysis of the from the 2019 and 2020 Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey. A final sample of 112,251 participants was anlayzed using chi-square test, and ordinal logistic regression. Results: In the case of tooth brushing, the frequency of 'never' increased in most general characteristics compared to before COVID-19. In the case of handwashing, it was found that handwashing behavior increased (increased) after COVID-19 compared to before COVID-19. As a result of confirming the factors affecting tooth brushing behavior before and after COVID-19, it was found that girls brushed teeth 2.2 times more regularly after lunch than boys. As a result of adjusting all other factors, regular tooth brushing behavior after COVID-19 was reduced by 0.79 times compared to before COVID-19. Conclusion: It is judged that it is necessary to operate a comprehensive health management program in the school so that the most basic tooth brushing for oral health and handwashing for health can become a habit. In addition, by confirming the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on handwashing and tooth brushing behavior through this study, it is expected to be used in the development of policy data such as raising awareness of brushing and improving behaviors applicable in the current and upcoming new pandemic situations.

Objectives: This purpose of this study was to examine the trends in interventional research and analyze the contents and results of intervention through a systematic literature review of the domestic research literature, suggesting the effect of an oral care program on elementary school students. Methods: A total of 262 articles were retrieved initially, and the duplicate articles were then removed, excluded after screening titles, abstracts, and full-text articles. Finally, a total of 16 papers were used in the review. Results: The study included 9 articles with the nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design and 7 with the one-group pretest-posttest design. All articles were of non-randomized studies. The most common index of the interventional effect was dental plaque. Further, oral health behaviors and knowledge, perception, self-efficacy, and DMFT index were common indices. In the quality assessment, in the "blinding of outcome assessment" among six items of ROBANS, 12 studies showed a high risk of bias. Conclusions: In order to develop an interventional oral health care program for elementary school students and evaluate the effectiveness, a strict research design and qualitative improvement of research reports are required, and continuous research should be conducted to develop a systematic protocol.

본 연구의 목적은 입원한 알코올 중독환자에게 실시한 구강보건교육의 효과가 인구 사회학적 특징과 구강건강 관련 특징들에 따라 어떻게 나타나는지를 알아보는 것이었다. 연구대상은 알코올 전문병원에 입원한 62명의 남자로, 32명을 교육군에 30명을 대조군에 무작위로 배정하였다. 인구 사회학적 특징과 구강건강 관련 특징들을 조사하기 위하여, 자기 기입식으로 구조화된 설문지를 이용하였고, 조사는 교육 전과 후 두 번 실시하였다. 구강보건교육은 한국구강건강협회에서 제시한 성인용 구강보건교육 이론과 칫솔질 실기교육으로 일주일에 한번 40-50분, 4주 동안 실시하였다. 연구결과, 구강보건교육은 인구 사회학적 특징이나 구강건강 관련 특징들이 다르다 하더라고, 알코올 중독환자들의 구강건강행동에 큰 개선효과를 나타내었다. 이와 같은 결과들은 구강보건교육 프로그램이 알코올 상담센터나 알코올 전문병원에서 체계적으로 운영된다면 구강환경이 열악하고 구강건강 관리능력이 부족한 사람들에게 확실한 구강건강 향상이 가능할 것이라는 것을 보여준다.

Objectives : The objective of this study was to compare oral health behaviors and oral health indices between regular scaling group and irregular scaling group. Methods : This study was performed at M Dental Clinic in Busan on 352 dental patients treated between January 2014 and June 2015 using V6.0 software and medical interviews. The 352 patients were divided into 3 groups and oral health behavior (OHB) and oral health indices were compared. Results : The OHB scores significantly differed among Groups C and A. Group C had the lowest number of "Bad" scores for the Simplified Debris Index (S-DI), Simplified Calculus Index (S-CI), and Simplified Oral Hygiene Index (S-OHI). Groups B and A had the lowest number of "Excellent" scores. Group C had the lowest bleeding on probing (BOP), calculus rate (CR) and decayed teeth (DT). Furthermore, Group C had the highest number of missing teeth (MT) and filled teeth (FT). Conclusions : Patients who underwent regular scaling had the highest OHB and oral health index scores. This emphasizes the importance of regular scaling for prevention and early detection of oral disease.

2007년 국민건강영양조사 자료를 이용하여 한국 성인의 당뇨병과 치주질환과의 관련성에 대해 평가하고자 하였다. 지역사회치주지수(Community Periodontal Index: CPI)와 당뇨병 각 구성요소에 대한 검진자료가 모두 있는 만 19세 이상 성인 190명을 최종분석대상자로 하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻을 수 있었다. 1. 치주질환 유병과 관련이 있는 당뇨병 관련 특성은 당뇨 교육과 당뇨 치료, 당화혈색소 로 나타났다. 당뇨교육과 당뇨 치료를 받지 않는 경우, 당화혈색소가 7.0이상(조절 안 되는 편)인 경우 치주질환의 비율이 높게 나타났다. 2. 치주질환 유병과 관련이 있는 일반건강행위는 흡연과 음주로 나타났다. 현재 흡연을 하 는 경우, 일주일에 음주횟수가 많을수록 치주질환의 비율이 높게 나타났다. 3. 치주질환 유병과 관련이 있는 구강건강행위는 지난 1년간 구강검진 여부, 치간 칫솔 및 치실 사용 여부, 주관적 구강건강 상태로 나타났다. 지난 1년간 구강검진을 받지 않고 치간 칫솔 및 치실을 사용하지 않는 경우, 주관적 구강건강 상태가 건강하지 않다고 생 각하는 경우 치주질환의 비율이 높게 나타났다.

본 연구는 2018년 아동 구강건강실태조사자료를 활용하여 아동의 치아우식증에 영향을 미치는 위험 요인을 알아보고자 시행하였다. 연구 대상은 만 12세 아동 20,235명을 대상으로 시행하였다. 조사항목으로 일반적인 특성, 치아우식 식이 행태, 구강 상태, 구강건강 관련 행태 요인을 조사하였다. 그 결과 성별, 지역, 경제수준, 주관적 구강건강 상태, 치아우식 식이 행태, 구강상태, 구강건강 관련 행태 모두 위험요인으로 나타났다. 특히 구강 상태는 치석, 치은 출혈, 치아 통증, 반점치 증상을 나타내는 학생에서 치아우식증 위험도가 더 높게 나타났다. 구강건강 관련 행태는 잇솔질 횟수 2회 이하, 치실과 손잡이 치실 미사용 학생에서 치아우식증 위험도가 높게 나타났다. 이상의 결과로 볼 때 치아우식증의 감수성이 가장 높은 아동을 대상으로 국가나 지역사회는 치아우식을 초기에 진단하여 관리할 수 있고 계속 구강건강관리를 위한 치아우식 관리사업체계를 구축함이 필요하다. 또한 아동·청소년기의 구강건강관리 습관을 개선시킬 수 있는 구강보건교육을 확대하고 치아우식증 예방 프로그램 개선 및 지역사회 활용의 구강보건정책의 체계가 필요하다.
