Objectives: This study aimed to provide basic data to establish a foundation for efficient operation of the organization by identifying the factors that affect the job embeddedness of dental hygienists. Methods: A survey was conducted from March to July 2018, targeting dental hygienists working in dental clinics and hospitals. Results: The study of the factors affecting job embeddedness of dental hygienists revealed that along with career, marital status, surface acting of emotional labor, and even emotional hiding and false expression, which are sub-areas of the surface acting, have statistically significant influences on job embeddedness. In other words, in a married dental hygienist with relatively high work experience, the surface acting of emotional labor is found to be high in job embeddedness, and the explanatory power of the model is approximately 53.2%. Conclusions: In order to improve the job embeddedness of clinical dental hygienists, it seems necessary to prepare an effective program to strengthen the surface behavior of emotional labor.

본 연구는 구강건강상태와 구강건강관리 행태에 따른 삶의 질을 측정하기 위하여 2013년 3월부터 7개월간 일부지역의 치과병 의원에 내원한 환자를 대상으로 구강검사 및 설문조사를 실시하여 최종 384명을 분석하였다. OHIP-14는 일반진료를 받은 환자에서 가장 높았고, 하위영역으로 기능제한 교정치료 8.27점, 신체적 동통 7.24점, 정신적 불편감 7.90점, 신체적 능력저하 7.79점, 정신적 능력저하 8.14점, 사회적 능력저하 8.24점 모두 일반진료에서 높았고, 사회적 불리에서는 교정치료(8.78)점으로 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 성별에서는 모두 남자에서 높았고, 연령에서는 연령이 증가할수록 삶의 질이 나빠졌으며, 직업은 주부에서 대부분 낮게 나타났고, 전신질환이 없는 경우 삶의 질이 높게 유의한 차이를 보였다. 구강건강관리 행태에서는 정기검진을 받지 않고, 통증 시 치과내원이 가능한 경우 삶의 질이 높게 유의한 차이를 보였다. 구강건강상태에서는 실란트 시술을 받은 치아, 충전치료를 받은 치아와 상실치아, 보철치료를 받은 치아, 임플란트 식립 치아가 없는 경우 삶의 질이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과에서 개인의 삶의 질에 영향을 향상시키기 위해서는 개인의 구강건강관리 시스템구축뿐만 아니라 사회적으로도 예방진료와 구강보건교육을 바탕으로 관리시스템을 구축하여 자연치아를 오래 보존 하여야 할 것이다. 또한 이를 기초로 하여 삶의 질을 향상하기 위한 끊임없는 노력과 연구들이 이루어져야 하리라 생각된다.

This study investigated the relationship between oral health knowledge, behavior and orthodontic satisfaction in orthodontic patients visiting dental hospitals and clinics and provided suggestions to improve orthodontic patients' satisfaction. This study anayzed structured self-administered questionnaires collected from 245 patients who visited 5 dental clinics in Gwangju Metropolitan City. Regarding oral health knowledge, the highest percentage of correct answers was for the item "Cavities heal themselves over time" (97.1%), and the lowest percentage of correct answers was for the item "Cavity bacteria move from tooth to tooth" (16.7%). Five fluoride items showed a lower percentage of correct answers than those for cavity and gingival diseases. Regarding the survey on oral health behavior, the highest score was found for the item "I brush my teeth with a certain method and order" (3.78 out of 5), and the lowest score was found for the item "I use an electric toothbrush" (1.34 out of 5). Regarding the survey on orthodontic satisfaction, the highest score was found for the item "I would recommend receiving medical treatment at the department of orthodontics" (4.23), and the lowest score was found for the item "Orthodontic cost is reasonable" (3.46). While oral health behavior had on orthodontic satisfaction, oral health knowledge had no effect on it. Oral health behaviors should be improved to enhance orthodontic satisfaction. To improve oral health behavior, it is necessary to develop and activate education programs for tooth brushing and oral care for orthodontic patients.
