  • 본 연구는 대구 경북에 소재하는 대학생 222명을 대상으로 구강위생용품 관리실태에 따른 구강건강인식도를 조사하여 다음과 같은 통계적으로 유의한 결과를 얻었다(p<0.05). 연구대상자가 사용하는 칫솔이 2개인 남성은 43명(19.4%), 여성은 50명(22.5%)이었고(p=0.047), 전공계열은 문과인 대상자는 칫솔을 2개사용하는 대상자가 18명(8.1%)로 이과전공대상자 75명(33.8%)으로 차이를 나타냈다(p<0.001). 칫솔을 휴대하지 않는 대상자 중 남성은 72명(32.4%), 여성은 46명(20.7%)로 남자가 휴대하지 않는 대상자가 많았고 (p<0.005), 이과계열 대학생이 휴대하는 대상자는 83명(37.4%), 문과 대학생의 경우 21명(9.5%)으로 나타났다. 구강건강인식도는 여성이 남성에 비해 3.031배였고(p<0.001), 전공계열이 이과인 집단이 문과인 집단에 비해 2.57배였다(p<0.001). 칫솔을 살균하는 하지 않는 대상자는 살균하는 대상자에 0.459배로 구강건강 인식도가 낮았다(p<0.05). 우리나라의 대학생의 구강보건청책의 수립 및 평가를 위해 객관적 구강건강상태만을 지표로 이용하고 있다. 하지만 구강건강인식도가 구강건강상태 뿐만 아니라 사회경제학적 변수, 구강건강에 관한 변수의 효과까지 반영하는 만큼 다양한 구강건강인식도에 영향을 미치는 변수를 연구하여 반영할 필요가 있다고 사료된다.

  • Objectives : This study was to examine the recognition and understanding of the use, application of oral hygiene supplies among dental clinic patients in a bid to stress the necessity of education on the right awareness and use of oral hygiene supplies, to provide information on the development of educational programs and ultimately to help promote the oral health of people in general. Methods : The subjects in this study were 314 patients who visited dental clinics in North Jeolla Province in June 2009. Results : 1. Out of oral hygiene supplies, the largest number of the patients investigated(74.6%) were best cognizant of dental floss, and the greatest group(77.7%) had the right understanding of the use of toothpick. Currently, the oral hygiene supplies that were most widely in use were toothpicks(43.2%). 2. As to the relationship of awareness and understanding of the use, application of oral hygiene supplies to subjective oral health status, 50.0 percent of the patients who understood the use of toothpick found themselves to be in good health, and the gaps between them and the others were statistically significant. Among those who were aware of dental floss, the largest group(51.4%) considered themselves to be in good shape, and in the event of those who understood the use of dental floss, the greatest group(49.2%) deemed themselves to be in good health. Out of those who understood the use of mouse rinse, the largest group(53.7%) thought they were in good health(p<0.05). 3. Recognition of interdental brush, understanding of its use and whether to use it currently or not were identified as parents to use oral hygiene supplies recommended by dental clinics(p<0.05). 4. Recognition of interdental brush, understanding of its use and whether to use it currently or not were identified as patients to use oral hygiene supplies recommended by dental clinics(p<0.05). 5. The largest group of those who didn't put dental floss to use didn't use it for other reasons unspecified in the questionnaire, and the second greatest group of them didn't use it since it was so onerous to do that. There were statistically significant differences in the reason why they didn't use the oral hygiene supplies(p<0.05). 6. Awareness of dental floss and interdental brush, understanding of the use of the two and whether to use the two at present or not made statistically significant differences to whether they were likely to use the oral hygiene supplies in the future. And whether they were likely to use the oral hygiene supplies in the future was statistically significantly different according to awareness of mouse rinse and understanding of the use of it as well(p<0.05). Conclusions : Dental hygienists have to provide patients with various data of oral hygiene devices through oral health education and then only patients caring in dental clinics can choose the appropriate devices to claim for their own disease.

  • 본 연구는 대학생의 구강검사 및 구강미생물검사, 설문조사를 통해 구강건강상태와의 관련성을 분석하여 구강건강증진을 위한 구강보건교육프로그램 개발에 필요한 기초자료를 제시하고자 한다. 대학생 95명을 대상으로 한 연구결과 칫솔질 교육을 받지 않은 학생이 높은 구강미생물의 활동성을, 구강미생물의 양이 많은 학생이 주관적으로 치아통증을 더 느꼈다. 우식치아지수는 구취 느끼는 증상이 더 컸으며, 상실치아지수는 구강미생물의 종류와 양에서 차이가 있었고, 우식경험영구치지수에서 구강보조용품 사용하지 않는 경우 더 좋지 않은 구강건강상태를 보였다. 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 구강보건행위와 주관적 구강건강인식, 구강미생물 정도는 객관적인 구강건강상태와의 유의한 관계가 있음을 확인하였다. 대학생의 구강건강 증진을 위해 생애주기별 맞춤형 구강보건교육 매체의 개발 및 공유 확산이 필요할 것이다.
