Background: Smoking in adolescence leads to an intensified addiction to nicotine when physical and mental growth has not yet been completed. With the advent of e-cigarettes, the rate of e-cigarette use among Korean adolescents has been steadily increasing. To date, studies on e-cigarettes and oral health, especially on the relationship between smoking styles and oral health in adolescents, are limited. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the risk factors for oral health problems caused by the repeated use of conventional cigarettes and e-cigarettes. Methods: This explanatory research study compared the adolescents' experiences of periodontal disease symptoms according to smoking type through a secondary analysis of the original data from the 15th Adolescent Health Behavior Survey (2019). Cross-analysis was performed to compare the smoking patterns according to the adolescents' general characteristics. Finally, a binary logistic regression analysis was performed to determine how smoking characteristics affect the adolescents' experience of periodontal disease symptoms. Results: In terms of patients' general characteristics, significant differences were observed in sex, school level, grades, household economic status, type of residence, and father's education level between adolescents who smoked conventional cigarettes alone and those who smoked both conventional cigarettes and e-cigarettes (p<0.05). After checking the factors affecting the smoking pattern and the experience of periodontal disease symptoms in adolescents, it was found that the duplicate smoking group was more likely to experience periodontal disease symptoms (odds ratio, 1.20) than the group that smoked conventional cigarettes alone (p<0.05). Conclusion: Duplicate smokers experienced more symptoms of periodontal disease than those who smoked cigarettes alone. Based on the findings of this study, smoking cessation counseling according to the smoking type and differentiated education for oral health promotion should be provided.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors affecting subjective oral symptoms according to the gender of youth from multi-cultural families in Korea using data from the 14th (2018) Korean Youth Health Behavior Survey. Methods: The independent variables used in this study consisted of gender and sweet drink intake. The dependent variable was experience of subjective oral symptoms. Compensation variables consisted of general characteristics of school type, academic performance, economic status, drinking status, smoking status, and number of tooth brushings day before. The subjects of the study were 835 children of multi-cultural families whose parents were foreigners. All statistical analyses were performed by complex samples cross-tabulation analysis and complex samples logistic regression analysis. Statistical analysis was performed using the PASW statistical package 21.0 (Statistical Packages for Social Science Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). A significance level of 0.05 was used for statistical significance. Results: The composite sample logistic regression analysis showed that there was a statistically significant difference between gender and intake of sweet drinks in experience of subjective oral symptoms. Conclusions: These results suggest that factors influence subjective oral symptoms in Korean multi-cultural adolescents. Therefore, I hope that they will be used as basic data for the introduction and development of a customized oral health education program for improving oral health of multi-cultural adolescents.

2012년도에 실시된 제 8차 청소년 온라인 건강행태 조사자료에서 고등학교 3학년 학생 10,701명을 대상으로 치과 방문 경험과 구강증상의 연관성 분석을 하였다. 학업성적이 낮을수록 치아 깨짐을 더 경험하는 것을 알 수 있었고, 치아가 아픈 증상은 경제상태가 낮아질수록 더 경험하는 경향을 보였다. 치과방문의 주된 이유는 먹을 때 아픔과 쑤시고 욱신거림이었다. 구강증상의 점수와 성별, 경제상태, 치과방문 경험횟수는 통계적으로 유의하게 나타났다. 고등학생들의 구강상태를 지속적으로 향상시키기 위해서는 학교 구강보건실 설치가 필요하며 예방중심의 학교구강보건교육을 활성화하여 다양한 학교 구강보건교육 프로그램 개발과 함께 고등학생의 계속구강건강관리제도를 체계화해야 한다.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between soft drink consumption and subjective oral symptoms in Korean adolescents. Methods: Data of 65,528 adolescents were derived from the twelfth Korea youth risk behavior web-based survey, which was conducted from 1st June 2016 to 30th June 2016. Sociodemographic factors, dietary habit, and oral health behavior were collected as independent variables. The subjective oral symptoms were used as a dependent variable. The chi-square test and logistic regression analysis were performed to identify the correlation between dental caries and the other variables. Results: A multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that subjective oral symptoms were correlated with sex, age, subjective economic status, soft drink consumption, sweet drink consumption, tooth brushing frequency and dental sealant experience. Conclusions: Since the intake of soft drink adversely effects subjectively perceived oral symptoms in Korean adolescents, oral health education should include information on the pH levels of food and beverages including carbonated drinks, the effects of sugar on the teeth, and precautions to preventing tooth damage.

Objectives: This study analyzed the relationship between dietary behavior and health-related characteristics and experiences of major oral disease symptoms using online raw data on adolescent health behavior. Methods: Using the raw data on 61,858 adolescents collected through the 13th Adolescent Health Behavior Online Survey, a complex samples logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess risks of major oral diseases. Results: The less one consumes sweet drinks and the more one eats vegetables per day, the less likely one is to experience symptoms of tooth decay and periodontal diseases. Undergoing scaling and oral health education help prevent major oral diseases. Brushing after school lunch prevents periodontal diseases and foul breath, and using dental floss and interdental brush also help prevent periodontal diseases. Conclusions: To minimize experiences of oral diseases during adolescent years, it is necessary to periodically scale teeth and provide knowledge regarding the personal management of dental plaque through school oral health education.

본 연구는 우리나라 청소년의 주관적 우울경험이 구강건강에 미치는 융합 요인을 알아보기 위해 청소년건강행태 온라인 조사를 이용하였다. 본 연구의 종속변수는 구강건강행태와 자각증상경험으로 구분하였고, 독립변수로는 주관적 우울경험으로 구성하였다. 우울경험이 구강건강에 미치는 융합요인으로 구강건강행태에서는 하루 칫솔질 횟수, 점심식사 후 칫솔질, 실란트 유무는 주관적 우울경험이 없는 경우보다 있는 경우가 유의하게 높았고, 자각증상경험에서는 치아 깨짐, 음식섭취 시 아픔, 잇몸출혈 유무, 구취 유무에서 주관적 우울이 없는 경우 보다 있는 경우 유의하게 높게 나타났다. 이상의 결과로 보아 우울과 구강건강은 관련이 있는 것으로 나타나 청소년들의 구강건강을 향상시키기 위해 심리적인 요소를 고려해야 할 것으로 사료된다.
