Objectives: The objective of the study was to investigate the factors related to non-use of interdental care products (ICP) in adolescents. Methods: The 2019 Korean Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey was used, examining 57,303 subjects. Complex-sample chi-square test and logistic regression analyses were performed to identify differences in ICP according to sociodemographic characteristics and oral health behavior and to determine the factors related to non-use. Results: The ICP non-use rate was 70.9%. Factors related to the non-use of ICP were middle or low economic status (OR=1.367 and 1.677). The other significant variables were less than one tooth brushing per day (OR=1.542), no scaling within 12 months (OR=1.631), and receiving dental treatment either once or two times or more (OR=1.757 and 2.195). Conclusions: To increase the ICP usage rate, continuous attention is needed from schools and families in addition to interventions at the national level.

본 연구는 성인 비만자를 대상으로 구강관리행태와 치주질환 유병을 분석하여 관련 요인을 규명하고자 실시하였다. 국민건강영양조사 제6기 2차의 원시자료를 활용하여 최종 4381명의 성인을 추출하였고 체질량지수, 잇솔질횟수, 음주, 흡연 및 구강건강상태와 행태에 대한 관련성을 확인하고자 SPSS 통계프로그램을 이용하여 변수의 가중치를 적용하고 빈도 및 카이제곱 검증과 다중 로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 그 결과 잇솔질횟수가 많을수록 치주질환 유병률은 낮아졌고, 체질량지수가 높을수록 치주질환 유병률은 높아지는 것을 확인하였다. 체질량지수는 잇솔질 횟수가 영향을 주며 두 변수는 궁극적으로 치주질환을 유발하는 요인으로 작용하였다. 이번 연구를 통해 세계적인 건강이슈인 비만의 경우 구강관리에 더욱 관심을 기울여야 하며 구강보건관리 프로그램이 개발되어져야 한다.

Purpose: This study was conducted to identify factors influencing fundus examination to prevent diabetic retinopathy in diabetes patients to provide basic data to improve screening rates of fundus examinations. Methods: Raw data from the 6th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, which is a cross-sectional and nationally representative survey, were used in this study. The subjects of the study were 1,029 adult diabetes patients over the age of 19 years who had been diagnosed with diabetes. The demographic characteristics, diabetes and disease-related characteristics and health behavior characteristics according to the fundus examinations were analyzed by the chi-squared test and logistic regression analyses were used to examine the factors influencing fundus examination. Results: A total of 333 patients underwent fundus examination at a screening rate of 32.2%. We identified factors influencing fundus examination in patients with diabetes as level of education, type of diabetes care, period of diabetes, and smoking. Conclusion: A multiple approach is required to raise the low screening rate of fundus examination, including specialized education for low-education groups. Moreover, nursing intervention should focus on subjects who do not engage in insulin and oral hypoglycemic agents and with diabetes for a long period.

Objectives: The purpose of this research is to investigate regional variations of mastication difficulty rates in the elderly over 65 in 229 primary autonomous districts in Korea and explore relevant characteristics. For the research data, local community health survey conducted in 2015 and data from Ministry of the Interior and Safety, Ministry of Health & Welfare, National Health Insurance Service and Statistics Korea were used. Methods: Frequency analysis was conducted for general characteristics and mastication difficulty rates of each region, and distribution of mastication difficulty rates was displayed for each town, city and province by mapping them. Extremal quotient (EQ), coefficient of variation (CV) values were calculated for regional variations, and logistic regression analysis was performed to reveal the relationship between each independent variable and mastication difficulty rates. Results: The average of standardized mastication difficulty rate was 46.78%, and regional variations were significant with EQ 3.46, CV 0.18. Characteristic factors that have significant effects on mastication difficulty rate included sex ratio, elderly population and the number of dentists per 10000 people. Conclusion: As a result, there were variations among mastication difficulty rates in 229 primary local governments across the country, and the distribution of health care resources by the characteristics of the local environment by region affected mastication difficulty rates. Accordingly, it is required to provide political supports to overcome regional inequality of oral health levels and develop cooperative system between local governments and local dentists.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the perception and satisfaction of caregivers and parents after being covered by health insurance for light-curing composite resin fillings, and to contribute to the settlement of the expansion and coverage of health insurance. Methods: A survey was conducted on caregivers who visited two dental institutions in the Gyeonggi-do area, and parents who joined internet cafes (online communities) in the Gyeonggi-do area from June 2 to September 2, 2020. 225 responses were collected eventually, and 212 valid responses were used as analysis data. Results: 67.0% of the study subjects were aware of the permanent teeth resin fillings being covered by health insurance and the satisfaction was relatively high (91.5%). There was a statistically significant difference in the perception of permanent tooth resin filling benefits according to the child's oral condition (p=0.025) and the parents' own interest in oral health (p=0.039). Conclusions: Based on the results of this study, it is necessary to increase the accessibility to the initial treatment for dental care of children through active promotion of detailed items of permanent teeth resin fillings.

Objectives: This study aimed to examine the actual use of interdental care products (ICPs), such as dental floss (DF) and interdental brushes (IDB), among Korean youth, confirm their relevance to periodontal health, and determine the factors that influence the use of each product. Methods: This study included 15,912 young adults aged 19-39 years and data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) (2007-2018). The usage rate of ICPs according to the characteristics of the subjects for each cycle of KNHANES was presented. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to identify factors affecting the use of ICP. Results: The use rates of DF and IDB gradually increased until the 7th period, reaching 34.8% and 26.8%, respectively. The rate of using more than one ICP also showed a tendency to gradually increase from 25.2% in the 4th period to 50.0% in the 7th period. The use of interdental care products is related to gingivitis and periodontitis. Factors related to the use of ICP were gender, age, education level, frequency of brushing, and dental examination experience. Conclusions: The use of dental floss or interdental toothbrushes was related to periodontal health, but only half of the adults aged 19-39 years used ICP. Therefore, oral health experts should actively encourage the use of DF and IDB in young adults.

There are increasing number of patients having dental treatment under outpatient general anesthesia. There were researches that studied patients treated under outpatient general anesthesia in Chonbuk National University Dental hospital between 2005~2013. However, there has been an absence of research since 2013. Therefore, the aim of this research is to study cases regarding outpatient general anesthesia visiting Chonbuk National University hospital between 2014~2017 and analyze the trends of these patients. The medical records of 409 cases from January, 2014 to December, 2017 were reviewed. From the patients' charts, data on sex, residence, visiting dates, disability status, and types and number of treatments was collected and investigated. The number of cases has increased from 86 in 2014 to 140 in 2017. Among 409 cases, 275 cases(67.2%) had disabilities, with mental disabilities consisting most of the disabilities. 192 cases were aged under 20 years old mostly with no disabilities, 142 cases were 20~39 years old mostly with mental disabilities, and 75 cases were 40 years old or more mostly with physical disabilities. The conservative treatment was performed most frequently in both disabled and non-disabled patient groups. There was an increasing trend in the number of patients treated under outpatient general anesthesia, and more than half were disabled patients. In order to meet this demand, Chonbuk National University Dental Hospital increased the number of general anesthesia pracrice. To follow this trends, the implementation of safe outpatient general anesthesia system and cooperation among teams is needed to improve the quality of treatments.
