The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of parents knowledge on oral health status toward their children. This study was carried out to investigate and analyze the cognitive degree of dental subjects and general public who have an experience to be treated for their dental knowledge, operative dentistry, and dental prothesis in the oral health care through the questionnaires. The results are as follows : 1 : In questioning the frequency in the visitation of dental clinic, 68.8% usually go to see dentists, if children's teeth have trouble. It was the reason that economical standard and educational level were enhanced as before. 57.6% took a kind of medical measures. 2 : In surveying the preference of dentists’ age or gender, 56.9% preferred younger dentists to older or female dentists. On the contrary, 56.9% children want younger dentists, and 64.8% children want female dentist doctor. As a conclusion, the preference of dentists’ age or gender is relevant with a view to remove big horror, which can be evoked by dental measures. 3 : In questioning the possession amount of decayed teeth, 45.8% have more than four. Usually those parents who have children filled their decayed teeth with artificial or installed with dental prosthesis. As a conclusion, age is relevant in this study in p<0.05 level. 4 : In asking for efficient starting-year of tooth brushing, 42.6% said that 2 or 3 year age is the most efficient, and especially 80.6% teach children to learn brushing themselves. (P<0.05). As a conclusion, the voluntary brushing can be good behaviour for good dental health. 5 : In surveying the way they obtained dental information, 38.9% were given form mass media, but 90% were once not delivered with the education of dental health. Because parents have been known narrow and deficient information of dental health through mass media, experts in dental health have to deliver help their parents to be delivered with systematical dental information. The conclusion of this study can be summarized that parents' role is very important to their children's tooth health and the education program for systematical dental information should be delivered to their parents.

본 연구는 보건계열 198명과 비보건계열 203명 대학생들을 대상으로 구강보건지식과 구강보건행태와의 관련성을 조사하였다. 일반적인 특성에 따른 구강보건행태는 학년에서 3,4학년, 학과는 보건계열, 치과정기검진과 치과교육경험은 받은 경우 높았다. 구강보건교육의 경로는 친구가 가장 높았다. 구강보건지식의 '칫솔질 시 혀를 닦는 것이 구취예방에 효과가 있다'가 94.5%로 가장 높았다. '불소는 충치 예방에 도움이 된다'에서 보건계열이 높았다. 구강보건행태의 '혀닦기를 한다'가 평균 4.20으로 가장 높았다. '자신에게 맞는 칫솔질 방법을 알고, 시행하고 있다'와 '치주병 예방을 위해 정기적인 스켈링을 한다'가 보건계열이 높았다. 일반적인 특성 및 구강보건지식, 구강보건행태의회귀분석 결과 Y(구강보건행태)=2.692+0.377(치과정기검진)+0.145(치과교육경험)+0.215(구강보건교육경로)+0.045(구강보건지식) 분석되었다. 따라서 구강건강에 대한 지식 및 정보를 쉽게 습득할 수 있는 환경을 구축하여 대학생들의 구강건강을 증진시킬 수 있도록 해야 할 것이다.

Objectives : To investigate the knowledge and recognition level of fluorine by teaching career among class teachers, who are primarily responsible for oral health education, despite lack of expertise in oral health, by playing a model role for students through continuous contacts with them, and provide basic elementary data about accurate knowledge and how to correctly use fluorine remarkably effective in preventing dental caries. Methods : A self-administered survey was conducted with 539 teachers at 21 elementary schools in Jinhae City from September 1 to October 15, 2010, drawing the following conclusions. Results : 1. As for the channel for acquiring knowledge of oral health, the highest frequency was found in health programs for respondents with less than 9 years of career, in dental clinics for those with 20 to 29 years of career, and in PR booklets for those with 10 to 19 years and 30 years and longer of career. 2. Use of fluorine-containing toothpaste and fluorine spread is very effective and effective in preventing dental caries got 64.9%, 72.2%, 72.3%, 77.7% and 54.0%, 63.1%, 62.2%, 69.7%, respectively, among elementary school teachers with less than 9 years, 10 to 19 years, 20 to 29 years, and 30 years and longer of career. 3. Intake of fluoride and toothbrushing with fluoric solution is very effective and effective in preventing dental caries got 33.3%, 40.1%, 39.5%, 55.3% and 50.0%, 54.9%, 48.8%, 69.7%, respectively, among elementary school teachers with less than 9 years, 10 to 19 years, 20 to 29 years, and 30 years and longer of career. 4. Use of fluoric tablets is very effective and effective in preventing dental caries got 32.9%, 36.0%, 36.1%, 47.3%, respectively, among elementary school teachers with less than 9 years, 10 to 19 years, 20 to 29 years, and 30 years and longer of career. 5. Most of the elementary school teachers knew the fact that fluorine increases dental resistance to cavity and prevents bacterial growth but gave incorrect responses to properties of becoming basic nutrients or inducing recalcification. Conclusions : Various types of application of fluorine during the elementary-level childhood experiencing the most frequent dental caries will be very useful in improving oral health in the future. It is necessary to enable class teachers to get correct recognition of fluorine through supplementary and job training based on technical knowledge and various educational materials so that they, who are directly responsible for health management through continuous contacts with students, can understand how to correctly use fluorine and get accurate knowledge.

Purpose: This study was to investigate oral hygiene knowledge and the actual condition of oral care for the students in the public health and non-public health Departments. Methods: The survey sample consisted of 262 randomly selected students. 197 of them are public health-related students and 65 are non-public health-related students. The questionnaires used in this study consisted of 4 items for general information, oral health status of 2 items, 5 items for Oral hygiene knowledge and actual condition of oral care of 5 items. Collected data were analyzed by Frequency Analysis t-test and Crosstabs using SPSS(Statistical Package for Social Sciences) Win 19.0 statistics program. Results: Regarding general characteristics of the subjects, there were 53.8% of first-year student, 26.0% of second-year student and 20.2% of third-year student among 52.3% of males and 47.7% of females. The subjects received less than "100,000" won(13.0%), "100,000-190,000" won (5.0%), "200,000-290,000" won(30.9%), "300,000-390,000" won (33.2%) and more than "400,000" won(17.9%) a month for an allowance. The subjects had 'none' (44.3%), '1'(6.5%), '2'(12.6%), '3'(5.0%), '4'(5.3%), 'more than' 5(0.8%) of dental caries and 'do not know' were 25.6%. The numbers of dental prosthetics were 'no' (35.5%), '1'(13.7%), '2'(17.2%), '3'(10.3%), '4'(11.5%), and 'more than 5'(11.8%). The public health students(84.8%) had a higher positive response rate than the non-public health students(66.2%). The public health students(80.2%) had a higher negative response rate than the non-public health students(78.5%) in the result of onset of gum disease pain awareness. The non-public health students(65.5%) had a higher negative response rate than the public health students(68.3%)) in the result of heredity of gum disease. The t-test showed that public health-related department students(M=8.264, SD=0.821) had more knowledge about oral hygiene than non-public health-related department students(M=8.015, SD=1.082). 'do not use' in the oral care products except toothpaste and toothbrush showed that public health-related department students(60.4%) use the products more than non-public health-related department students(66.2%). Conclusion: In this study, public health-related department students had higher oral hygiene knowledge and actual condition of oral care compared to non-public health-related students, but low in practical action. Due to the lower level of dental care products use in non-public health-related department, a continuous oral care education program is required.

보육교사들의 구강보건지식수준과 치아우식증 예방인식도를 조사하기 위하여 서울 경기, 부산 경남지역의 보육교사를 대상으로 2013년 3월부터 5개월간 총 433명을 조사하였다. 보육교사들의 구강보건지식습득 경로는 병원 56.6%로 가장 많았고, 구강보건지식 응답 분포에서 정답률은 "치아가 빠졌을 때 우유에 넣어서 치과에 간다" 100%로 가장 높았고, "치아가 빠졌을 때 물로 씻는다" 35.1%로 가장 낮았다. 구강보건지식 수준은 부산 경남(p<0.001), 원생 수는 많을수록(p<0.001), 교사의 연령이 젊을수록(p<0.001), 학력은 전문대졸업(p=0.002)에서 지식수준이 높았다. 치아우식증 예방효과 인식수준에서는 연령이 증가할수록(p<0.001), 기혼(p=0.002), 직책에서는 원감(p=0.023), 경력에서는 10년 이상(p=0.009)에서 높았다. 아동들의 구강건강의 향상을 위해서는 보육교사들의 정확한 구강보건지식이 습득이 선행되어야 하며, 이를 위해서는 연령에 맞는 교육프로그램을 개발하고 정기적교육이 이루어져야 할 것이다.
