Objectives: The purpose of the study was to investigate the relationships among snack habits, oral health practice, and oral health status in preschool children. Methods: The subjects were 209 preschool children and their mothers in Jeonbuk from March 24 to May 30, 2014. The study instruments comprised snack habits, oral health practice, and oral health status. Data were analyzed for independent t-test, one way ANOVA and hierarchical multiple regression using SPSS Win 21.0 version. Results: Higher dft index was shown in the older age (p=0.033), lower mother's education (p<0.001), lower mother's daily toothbrushing (p<0.001), check-up after tooth-brushing (p<0.001), tooth-brushing practice before sleeping (p<0.001), tooth-brushing practice after snack (p<0.001), regular dental check-up (p<0.001), fluoride and sealant for prevention caries (p<0.001), limitation of sugar snack intake (p<0.007), periodic replacement toothbrush (p=0.022). The cause of higher dft index included soda (p<0.001), yogurt (p<0.001), snack (p=0.002), bread and cake (p=0.002) and caramel and candy (p<0.001). Fruit (p<0.001), vegetable (p<0.001) and milk (p=0.004) decreased dft index. Factors affecting oral health status were tooth-brushing practice before sleeping, tooth-brushing practice after snack, regular dental check-up, fluoride and sealant for prevention caries, and intake of soda, yogurt, caramel, candy, and fruit.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to examine the general characteristics, oral health knowledge and oral health behavior of elderly people and the relationship of their oral health knowledge to practice of the knowledge in an attempt to provide information on the development of the senior oral health care system. Methods : The subjects in this study were 324 elderly people who used five different social welfare centers in the regions of Sooncheon and Yeosoo. Results : 1. The oral health knowledge of the elderly people investigated was at a low level. Among different sorts of oral health knowledge, they had the best knowledge on the cause of dental caries, and they were most ignorant about the right time for regular dental checkup. 2. Regarding connections between general characteristics and oral health knowledge, the elderly people who never went to a dentist had a better knowledge on oral health, and those who cared about oral health had a better knowledge than the others who didn't. 3. As to practice of oral health knowledge, the best oral health behavior they did was to clean the tongue during toothbrushing, and oral health behavior was not to have an unbalanced diet. The second best one was to be well-nourished, and the third best one was to refrain from drinking, smoking and eating sugar-containing food. The fourth best one was to get a regular dental check-up and teeth cleaned. 4. There was a positive correlation between oral health knowledge and oral health behavior. A better oral health knowledge led to a better oral health behavior. Conclusions : The better oral health knowledge of the elderly people was followed by a better oral health behavior, and the development and implementation of customized oral health education programs geared toward the elderly are urgently required. Oral health professionals should direct their energy into providing sustainable and systematic oral health education, and institutional measures should be taken to make it happen.

본 연구는 사업장 근로자들의 구강보건에 대한 인식과 실천정도와 관련요인을 파악하여 근로자들의 구강건강관리 및 증진을 위한 기초자료를 마련하고자 서울 경기 지역에 소재하는 산업체 근로자 133명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 산업체 근로자의 구강건강 인식수준에서 충치나 치주질환 예방 인지도는 높았지만, 잇솔 외 구강위생용품의 필요성에 대한 인지도는 낮은 점수를 보였다. 구강보건관리 실천 수준의 경우, 잇솔질 시 혀 세척의 중요성에 대해 가장 높은 인식을 보였으며, 구강검진의 중요성에 대해 가장 낮은 인식을 보이고 것으로 나타났다. 2. 일반적 특성에 따른 구강보건 인식에서는 평균 소득이 200~300만원인 근로자가 다른 근로자보다 구강보건 인식이 높게 나타났다. 구강보건관리 실천에서는 일반적 특성에 따른 구강보건관리 실천이 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 3. 산업체 근로자의 구강보건 행동에 따른 구강보건 인식은 최근 2년 내 구강검진 경험이 있는 자, 하루 평균 잇솔질 횟수가 3회 이상인 자, 지난 1년 간 치과 내원 경험이 있는 자, 구강보건 교육 경험이 있는 자가 구강보건인식이 높았으나 유의한 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 구강보건관리 실천은 잇솔질을 3회 이상 하는 근로자와 지난 1년 간 치과 내원 경험이 있는 근로자가 다른 근로자보다 구강보건관리 실천이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 4. 산업체 근로자의 구강건강 관심 정도와 구강건강 상태에 따른 구강보건 인식은 구강건강 에 대한 관심이 높은 근로자일수록 구강보건 인식이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 구강보건관리 실천에서는 구강건강 관심 정도와 구강건강 상태에 따라 구강보건관리 실천이 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 5. 산업체 근로자의 구강보건 인식과 구강보건관리 실천과의 관계에서 정적 상관관계를 보여 구강보건 인식이 높을수록 구강보건관리 실천이 높은 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구는 치위생과 학생과 일반 대학생들과의 비교분석을 통해 구강보건교육의 중요성을 알아봄으로써, 현재 구강보건관리를 책임지고 있는 인력들에게 시사점을 제공하고자 연구되어 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 첫째, 대학생들이 인지, 자각하고 있는 구강건강 특성을 살펴본 결과, 구강건강에 대한 관심(p<0.001), 구강건강의 중요도(p<0.01), 현재 학생들이 지각하는 구강건강 상태(p<0.01) 등의 모든 요인에서 치위생과 학생이 일반 학생들 보다 높게 나타났다. 둘째, 구강보건인식 수준은 치위생과 학생이 $4.41{\pm}0.62$점으로 일반 학생 $3.81{\pm}0.70$점보다 유의하게 높게 나타났으며(p<0.001), 구강보건실천 수준 역시 치위생과 학생이 $3.80{\pm}0.61$점으로 일반 학생 $3.33{\pm}0.57$점보다 유의하게 높게 나타났다(p<0.001). 이상의 결과에서 구강보건교육을 받은 경험이 있는 경우 구강보건인식과 실천 수준이 높고, 구강보건인식 수준이 증가할수록 구강보건실천 수준이 높아지는 것으로 나타나 대학생 시기에 적절한 구강보건교육이 실시되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.

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.
