본 연구는 치아가 외모에 미치는 영향에 대한 인식 및 자신의 치아 만족도, 주관적인 치아에 대한 인식과 자아존중감에 대해 살펴보고, 이들의 관련성에 대해 조사함으로써 향후 치아 미용 관련 환자의 진료에 필요한 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 2015년 5월부터 8월까지 서울 및 경기지역에 거주하는 일반인 320명의 자료를 수집하여 이중 응답이 미흡한 18부를 제외한 302(94.38%)부를 분석하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 적합된 회귀모형은 통계적으로 유의하였으며(p<0.001), 모형 설명력은 23.4%로 나타났으며, 선정된 독립변수 중 학력(대졸 이상)과 치아가 외모에 미치는 영향에 대한 인식, 주관적인 치아에 대한 인식은 자아존중감에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 연구결과 주관적인 치아에 대한 인식이 증가할수록 자아존중감을 향상되는 것으로 나타나 치과를 내원하는 환자들의 구강건강을 향상시킬 수 있도록 이와 관련된 구강보건교육을 시행하고, 치아의 색이나 배열 등을 개선할 수 있는 적극적인 의료서비스를 제공하여 자신감과 만족감을 더 고취시킬 수 있어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the levels of the subjective oral health awareness of local residents in the city of Changwon and Haman county in an effort to lay the foundation for the development of customized local oral health education programs. The 2015 community health survey data were used, and the data from 864 residents in Changwon and from 719 dwellers in Haman county were analyzed. The Changwon residents brushed their teeth after lunch more, received more oral checkups over the past year and had more scaling experience. The Haman residents had more experience of not receiving dental treatment. The subjective health awareness, subjective oral health awareness, chewing difficulty and periodontal health of the Haman dwellers were all worse, and all the levels of awareness were lower among the respondents who were older and who were diagnosed with hypertension and/or diabetes. The respondents who made use of dentures and who didn't brush their teeth after lunch had experience of not receiving dental treatment, and all the levels of health-related awareness were lower among the respondents who didn't receive dental checkups nor had scaling experience. To remedy the situation, efforts should be made to prevent and manage chronic diseases, and the establishment of a system that guarantees regular dental checkups and scaling is required. And the kind of environments that everybody can receive dental treatment when they want should be prepared. In order to change negative awareness, necessary measures should be taken to provide oral health education that is not temporary but sustainable and tailored to local characteristics and different life stages.

본 연구는 제 2대구치가 맹출 하고, 영구치 치열이 완성을 이루어 평생 치열을 완성하는 중요한 시기인 중학생들 대상으로 구강보건인식이 구강건강상태와 구강건강행위에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 조사하여 청소년들의 구강건강 프로그램 개발에 기초자료로 사용하고자 전주시 일부지역 소재의 중학교에 방문해 구강상태를 검진하고, 구강보건인식 및 행위에 대한 설문조사를 실시하였다. 구강검진 결과 치아우식증은 여학생이 치주질환은 남학생이 높게 나타났으며, 부정교합은 여학생이 높게 나타났다(p<0.038).구강보건인식은 남,녀간의 유의한 차이는 없었으나 5점 척도중 M=4.08로 높게 나타났다. 구강건강행위는 '잇몸에서 피가 날 때 치과를 방문한다.의 문항에서는 여학생(M=4.508)이 남학생(M=4.257)보다 더 높게 나타났다(p<0.05). '잇솔질 후 치과용 실을 사용한다'의 문항에서도 여학생(M=4.547)이 남학생(M=4.333)보다 더 높게 나타났다(p<0.05).구강보건인식은 구강건강행위에 95% 신뢰수준에서 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 구강건강을 증진하기 위해 구강건강행위에 대한 교육이 요구되며, 행위에 영향을 미치는 구강보건인식 및 지식에 대한 프로그램 개발을 제시하는 연구가 필요하다.

The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate, by means of a questionaire, the parental awareness of the emergency management of avulsed teeth in children. 297 parents were surveyed during a six week period at Yooseuk elementary school in Seoul. The results indicated that the person who experianced a avulsion of teeth was 16.6%. 35% of parents would attempt replantation of an avulsed tooth but further questioning showed they did not know the correct procedures. 36% of parents were unaware of adequate time for emergency dental services. 62% of parents felt they should seek professional help urgently following an avulsion injury, but their knowledge of transport media for the tooth was poor. Only 8% of parents knew that milk was the medium of choice for both washing and transporting an avulsed tooth. 76% of parents surveyed had never received advice in what to do in the event of an accident where a tooth was avulsed. This study revealed the need for educational campaigns aimed at parents to increase their knowledge of the emergency procedures required when a tooth is avulsed.

본 연구는 직장근로자들의 구강건강증진방안을 마련하는 연구의 일환으로 직장근로자들을 대상으로 구강건강 인지도와 실천도를 파악하여 적절한 산업구강보건정책 수립과 직장 구강보건 교육프로그램을 개발하는데 필요한 기초자료를 제공하고자 본 연구를 시행하였다.본 연구의 결론은 다음과 같다.첫째, 구강건강인지도에서는 잇솔질에 의한 치주질환예방효과에 대한 인지도는 높았지만, 충치예방효과에 대해서는 인지도가 낮게 나타났고, 구강위생용품의 필요성에 대한 인지도는 낮은 점수를 보였다. 둘째, 구강건강 실천도에서는 스켈링에 대한 필요성 및 중요성에 대한 인지도는 낮게 나타났으며, 대부분 스켈링을 정기적으로 받지 않은 것으로 나타났고, 구강건강을 위해 정기적인 구강검진이 필요하다고 높게 인식하고 있었지만 실천에서는 낮은 점수를 보였다.셋째, 조사대상자의 일반적 특성에 따른 구강건강인지도를 보면, 결혼여부에서는 기혼이 미혼에 비해 구강건강인지도가 높게 나타났고, 구강건강에 대한 관심도에서는 구강건강에 대한 관심이 높을수록 구강건강인지도가 높은 것으로 나타났다.넷째, 구강건강 실천도에서는 한 달 평균 수입이 높을수록 구강건강실천도가 높게 나타났으며, 자신의 구강건강상태에서는 구강건강상태가 좋지 않을수록 구강건강실천도가 높게 나타났다. 이상의 결과에서 근로자들은 생활의 대부분을 직장에서 보내게 되므로 직장에서의 구강건강행태를 파악하고 그에 따른 적절한 구강건강교육을 시행하는 것이 필수적인 일이라 여겨진다. 또한 구강건강을 유지할 수 있는 프로그램을 지속적으로 개발하여 효과적으로 운용한다면 구강건강이 크게 증진되리라 사료된다.

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.

Objectives : Periodontal disease is a serious oral disease that frequently occurs among adults. The objective of this study is to provide necessary data for the development of an oral health care program that can effectively manage periodontal disease and subsequently maintain and enhance oral health. Methods : Data was collected from patients of a dental clinic in Daejeon, Korea from 1 July to 25 August 2009. A thesis submitted to the Committee of Graduate School of Public Health & Biotechnology Chungnam National University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Public Health conferred in February, 2010. Results : 68% of the patients were aware of periodontal disease, with older patients exhibiting better awareness. 48.0% replied that their periodontal health is good in general, with older patients inclined to say that their periodontal health was poor. 70.5% cited bad brushing habit or skipping the act of tooth brushing as the cause of periodontal disease, while 63.5% reported brushing their teeth an average of 3 times a day. 56.5% said that they brush their teeth correctly, and 63.5% told that they brush their teeth up and down, and left to right and 70.0% replied that they would attend an educational program for the prevention of periodontal disease, with older patients shown to more likely attend such a program. Conclusion : a program that can motivate people to become aware of the importance of oral health care should be developed and implemented. Such a program should include the dissemination of correct and accurate oral health care information and measures for educating people about the importance of prevention.
