Objectives: The purpose of this study was to provide basic data for the improvement of healthy habits and development of an oral health promotion program among Korean youth. Therefore, this study investigated adolescent health risk factors, oral health risk factors, and oral disease symptoms. Methods: This study used data from the Korea youth web-based survey, 2016. The subjects selected for the study were 61,086 persons who did not exhibit health risk factors, oral health risk factors, and oral disease symptoms. The statistical analyses were conducted by applying a complex sample analysis technique. Results: Those who drank carbonated beverages at least once a day were 1.15 times more likely to experience oral disease symptoms. The more sweet drinks they drank, the higher the risk of experiencing oral disease symptoms. Subjects who consumed alcohol had a 1.30 times greater risk of experiencing oral disease symptoms while subjects with smoking experience had a 1.13 times greater risk of experiencing oral disease symptoms. Conclusions: As a result, in order to maintain the physical and mental health of Korean adolescents, it is necessary to develop an oral health program for the prevention of unhealthy eating habits and oral diseases.

Purpose. A huge proportion of adults in korea, workers chronic disease risk factors have been growing every year, these are closely related to oral health. thus, through the study of the relationship between workers oral health behavior and chronic disease risk factors. Methods. The subjects were 4,600 workers volunteering at the oral health education program part of the industrial health education of some area work places. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, chi-square test, Rogistic regression analysis. Results. The results of chronic disease risk factor according to oral health practice behaviors show that currently drinking and smoking, not visiting to the dentist for last year, fewer toothbrushing were associated with chronic disease risk factors. This result was statistically significant as well.(p<0.05). Risk factors influencing chronic disease were gender, age, job period, dental clinic visiting, the number of toothbrushing, perceived oral health state, smoking, and drinking, these were statistically significant as well(p<0.05).

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the effect of the oral health status on risk factors for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) using data from the 2019 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Methods: Of a total of 2,422 persons, 1,295 and 1,127 were categorized into the control group (CG) and OSA risk group (OSARG), respectively. The effect of the oral health status on OSA risk factors was presented in Model 1 by performing a complex sample linear regression analysis. Results: Our findings showed that OSA risk factors decreased by 0.075 points when there were no speaking problems with demographic characteristics adjusted. In addition, when systemic diseases were adjusted for, OSA risk factors decreased to 0.074 points (p<0.05). Conclusions: Therefore, in order to reduce oral problems that affect OSA risk factors, dentists and dental hygienists should seek accurate recognition of OSA and effective oral care methods.

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.

본 연구는 제9차(2013)청소년건강행태 온라인조사를 바탕으로 우리나라 청소년 총 66,951명을 대상으로 청소년의 건강위험요인과 구강건강과의 관련성을 확인하고, 구강건강에 미치는 위험도를 알아보고자 하였다. 수집된 자료는 통계 분석 프로그램인 PASW Statistics ver. 18.0을 사용하여 분석하였고 주요 결과는 다음과 같다. 남학생은 33,777명(50.5%), 여학생은 33,174명(49.5%)으로 남학생 비율이 높았고, 학년 분포는 중학생과 고등학생 모두 1학년이 가장 높았다. 학업성적은 '하위권'이 24,468명(36.6%)으로 가장 높았고, 경제 상태는 중위권이 32,374명(48.4%)으로 가장 높았다. 어머니 학력은 고졸이 가장 높았다. 성별에 따른 6가지 구강증상경험 분포의 차이를 알아본 결과 '치아가 깨지거나 부러짐'은 성별의 차이가 유의하지 않았고(p=0.135), '먹을 때 치아가 아픔', '치아가 욱신거리고 쑤심', '잇몸이 아프고 피가 남', '혀와 입 안쪽 뺨이 아픔'은 여학생이 남학생보다 더 많이 경험한 것으로 나타났다(p<0.001). 그러나 '입 냄새가 남'은 남학생(52.5%)이 여학생(47.5%)보다 더 많이 경험한 것으로 나타났다(p<0.001). 건강위험요인과 구강증상경험과의 관련성 분석결과 음주, 흡연, 학교폭력 경험, 주중 인터넷 사용이 관련성이 있었으며 로지스틱 회귀분석 결과 음주경험이 있는 대상자의 구강증상경험 위험도가 OR 1.33배, 흡연 경험이 있는 대상자의 구강증상경험 위험도가 OR 1.2배로 높아졌으며 인터넷 사용시간은 '1시간 이내 사용'보다 '7시간 이상' 사용자가 구강증상경험 위험도가 OR 1.25배 높아졌으며 학교폭력 경험도 경험이 없는 대상자에 비해 '3~4번' 경험이 있는 대상자의 구강증상경험 위험도가 OR 1.54배 높아짐을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구 결과를 토대로 청소년의 올바른 건강습관을 도모하고, 건강위험요인을 적절히 중재하여 청소년의 구강건강을 증진시킬 수 있는 포괄적 건강증진 프로그램개발에 기여할 수 있을 것이다.
