본 연구는 노인요양시설 종사자들을 대상으로 구강보건지식 및 인지도를 파악하기 위하여 경기도지역 노인시설 종사자 233명을 대상으로 자기기입식 설문지를 작성하게 하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 조사대상자의 구강보건지식의 문항별 응답은 '칫솔질할 때 혀도 닦아야 한다'가 97%로 가장 높은 정답률을 보였다. 2. 구강보건행태에 따른 구강보건지식정도에서는 정기적 치과방문이 6개월마다 방문한다고 응답한 대상자가 높게 나타나 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<.05). 일일 칫솔질 횟수에서는 4회 이상 칫솔질을 한다고 응답한 대상자가 구강보건지식이 높게 나타났으며 통계적으로도 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<.05). 3. 구강보건 지식정도는 전체 평균은 13점 만점에 9.84점으로 전체적으로 구강보건지식수준이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 하위영역에서는 일반적인 구강보건지식이 4점 만점 중 3.69점, 노인성 구강보건지식인 6점 만점에 4.28점, 의치구강보건지식이 3점 만점에 1.86점으로서 일반적인 구강보건 지식이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 4. 노인구강보건관심에 따른 구강보건지식정도는 관심이 많다고 응답한 대상자가 구강보건지식정도가 높게 나타나 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<.001). 5. 조사대상자의 노인구강보건관리 및 교육요구도 에서는 교육이 필요하다는 응답이 83.7%, 불필요하다는 응답이 16.3%로 나타났다. 6. 노인구강보건관리 및 교육은 치과위생사가 하는 것이 적합하다라는 응답이 57.9%로 가장 많았고 구강보건지식정도도 치과위생사가 되어야 한다고 인지한 대상자가 높은 것으로 나타났고 통계적으로도 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<.05)(Table 7). 이상의 결론을 정리해 보면 시설종사자들에게 노인구강 보건관리에 대한 일반적인 구강보건지식을 교육시킬 필요가 있으며 더불어 보다 전문적이고 체계적인 노인구강 건강관리서비스를 제공하기 위하여 치과위생사를 노인시설에 적극적으로 배치시키는 일들에 대한 적극적인 검토가 필요하다고 생각한다.

Objectives : In order to provide basic data necessary for developing oral health education plane for school continued oral health education by understanding knowledge and activities of oral health. Methods : This study was performed against 324 students at 5th grade of 2 elementary schools in Iksan-si, Jellabuk-do selected through convenience sampling, who were in mixed dentition period that might experience dental caries of permanent tooth. Results : As results, For the knowledge level on oral health by questions, it was found that the case that the elementary school students had correct knowledge on oral health was 'chocolates, snacks, and candies were foods that might often cause dental caries' and 95.8% of the students recognized it well. It was found that for 'must do toothbrushing before going to bed', 'during toothbrushing, I clean my tongue', and 'Proper time necessary for toothbrushing is about 3 minutes', 89.3%, 93.2%, and 89.3% of the students knew the, respectively. When oral health knowledge level by groups was divided into 3 groups and observed, they were classified into Low (0-4 points), Mid (5-7 points), and High (8-10 points). It was found that the knowledge level of each group was High 64.1%, Mid 33.9%, and Low 2.0% and it was identified that the high group took the largest ratio. It was suggested also for oral health knowledge level depending on their father's academic background that there was a statistically significant difference in the group higher than university graduate(p<.05). It was found for oral health knowledge level depending on parents' dental condition that an answer that both parents were good was high and there was a statistically significant difference. But post-analysis resulted that there was no apparent difference among groups. It was found that the ratio of respondents who answered for toothbrushing method 'toothbrush should be moved and rotated downward for the upper teeth and upward for the lower teeth to clean the teeth and gum' were 33.2% of male students and 29.4% of female students and showed statistically significant difference (p<0.05). It was found also that the ratio of respondents who answered to use a toothbrush for about 3 months' were 29.4% of male students and 25.5% of female students and showed statistically significant difference (p<0.05). Conclusions : Oral health program through the elementary school students and their parents for the development of proper oral health care education programs continue to be made should be considered.

Objectives: The objective of the study was to investigate oral health index between adequate and inadequate dental care following preventive scaling in regular dental check-up and management. Methods: The subjects in Busan were assigned to two groups including inadequate dental care (140 patients) and adequate dental care (88 patients) after preventive scaling from January 2014 to June 2015. The study instruments included oral health knowledge, awareness, practice, and community periodontal index of treatment needs (CPITN). Results: CPITN was significantly different between the two groups (p<0.05). Positive correlations were found in oral heath knowledge and awareness (r=0.462, p<0.05) before application of preventive scaling. There was a close correlation in oral health awareness and practice (r=0.205, p<0.05) before application of preventive scaling. After application of preventive scaling, oral health knowledge and awareness showed positive correlation (r=0.643, p<0.05). After application of preventive scaling, there was also a close correlation between oral health knowledge and practice (r=0.453, p<0.05). Oral health awareness and practice (r=0.512, p<0.05) showed positive correlation after the application of preventive scaling. However, oral health practice and CPITN (r=-0.189, p<0.05) showed a negative correlation. Conclusions: Practice made periodontal condition improve. To promote oral health practice in the group without adequate dental care, it is necessary to pay attention to adequate dental care and preventive scaling through education by dental hygienists.
