Objectives : This study is to investigate factors that predispose the oral health education patterns of teachers at preschool institutions such as kindergartens and day nurseries, for which a comparison was made among the patterns, whereto the PRECEDE model was applied. Methods : A survey was conducted by two visits, a preliminary survey and a main survey, and teachers at the foregoing institutions personally filled in the questionnaire. Results : 1. With relation to epidemiological and social diagnosis, the largest number of respondents (53.7%) agreed on the need for oral health education, but at the same time, the largest number of respondents (40.3%) was unsatisfactory with oral health education given by them. 2. With relation to behavioral diagnosis, there were many cases where respondents taught their students to brush their teeth after meals and snacks. Oral health education was focused on safety and injuries. There was no significant intergroup difference (p>0.05). 3. Predisposing factors (a subcategory of educational diagnosis) showed the following results: As for the frequency of oral health education, most respondents at both institutions answered preferred once every six month (p>0.05). In the case of oral health checkup, 75.4% of respondents at kindergartens preferred once a year. 72.2% of respondents at day nurseries preferred the same frequency. They showed a statistically significant difference (p<0.05). In enabling factors, it was found that most respondents at both institutions collected information and teaching materials from mass media and public health centers respectively. In enabling factors, insufficient teaching materials, media and knowledge were found to be obstacles to oral health education. Conclusions : Oral healthcare providers' cooperation is required to diversify away from tooth brushing-centered education and to enrich oral health education. In addition, continuous supplements are required to make teachers at preschool institutions acquire expert knowledge and give oral health education with confidence.

Children need oral care according to their developmental stage and accordingly, the appropriate dental treatment is different, which requires parents to have an active attitude and the applicable oral knowledge. As there is so much unreliable oral care information and PR, it is hard to find accurate information and parents are in need of a preventative oral healthcare mobile application for healthy oral care. Also, pediatric adolescent care should be focused on prevention rather than treatment and children should be instructed and educated to eat cariogenic foods as little as possible as well as told to brush before going to bed. This study designed a smart application for oral health care education to provide information and knowledge regarding oral health care for infants, oral health education, and oral health care prevention for parents of young children.

본 연구는 연극제를 이용하여 유치원 아동들의 구강건강에 대한 교육적 효과를 파악하고자 하였으며, 화성시에 소재한 유치원 아동을 대상으로 교육전, 교육후 총 762부의 설문지를 분석한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 구강건강실천에 관항 사항에서 교육전과 교육후를 비교해 본 결과 모든 변수에서 교육후의 실천도가 높게 나타났으며, 이는 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 특히 6개월마다 정기검진 여부에 가장 큰 차이를 보이고 있었다. 2. 구강건강관심에 관한 사항에 있어서도 교육전과 교육후를 비교해 본 결과 모든 변수에 있어서 교육후에 관심도가 높아짐을 알 수 있었으며 통계적으로 유의했다. 3. 연극을 이용한 구강보건교육의 만족도를 살펴본 결과 95% 이상이 긍정적인 답변을 함으로써 만족하고 있었으며, 구강보건교육 연극에 재관람하고 싶다는 정도가 가장 높게 나타났다. 4. 유아 아동들에 있어 공부하는데 가장 흥미를 주는 구강보건교육 매체가 인형 등의 도구를 통한 연극이라고 50%이상이 답하였으며, 가장 기억에 남는 매체에 있어서도 연극이라고 답하였다. 특히 연극이 가장 오랫동안 기억에 남는다는 결과에서는 교육전보다 교육후가 약 40%에서 약 50%로 증가하였다. 구강질환을 예방하기 위해서는 구강보건교육이 필수 요건이며, 구강보건교육을 통해 건강습관을 유지시키는 것이 중요하다고 하겠다. 또한 교육방법에 있어서도 피교육자가 흥미있어하고 관심을 가질 수 있도록 매체를 선정하는 것도 중요하며, 이를 위해 연극을 이용한 구강보건교육이 활발히 전개되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Primary school is regarded as an important period when many health-related behaviors and life-styles begin to be formed. Acquiring them through school heath education has a strong influence on the health promotion of not only the family but also the community. The objectives of this study were to evaluate current oral health care of elementary schools in Chungnam province and to provide information for further development in elementary school oral health. We performed a questionnaire survey to 280 health teachers and among them, 155 teachers answered. The result of this study were as follows: 1. Sixty five percent of the health teachers had little interest in oral health. Major information sources for teaching oral health were books in 58.1% of the 155 teachers and 83.2% of teachers spent 30 minutes to 1hour per day in oral health care practice for the students. 2. Contents of the oral health education were composed of regular and special curriculums, and an average of education time during a semester was 2.6 hours in 3rd grade, and 1.3 hours in first and second grade. 60.6% of the teachers made the children practice the proper method of tooth brushing during the education time. 3. Major problems in oral health education were insufficient time, lack of equipment and difficulty in teaching method. The educational media were tooth models among 91.0% and OHP among 85.2% of the teachers. The tooth model was usually used in first to fourth grades and OHP in fifth to sixth grades. But 63.9% health teachers need to develop stronger educational methods using multimedia. 4. Meanwhile the most important strategy of oral health in urban schools was health education, that of rural schools was fluoride mouth-rinsing programme. Fluoride mouth-rinsing programmes were performed by 60.0% of the elementary school. Periodic dental examination was performed in all elementary schools. 98.2% of the schools sent the results home through school notification letters, but post-examination management was performed in only 67.1% of them 64.5% of the health teachers do follow-ups on the oral disease of the children after the examination. Only 0.7% of the schools have oral health education plans for the students' parents. Considering these major strategies for elementary school oral health care were health education, practicing proper methods of tooth brushing, periodic dental examinations, and fluoride mouth-rinsing programmes. But health teachers need more time for oral health education, practicing and management, and developing education materials. With regard to the high demand for oral health education and poor follow-up after periodic examination, the oral health education in elementary school should be considered as a formal educational course for more proper management of oral health, including application of major strategies to the children in earlier grades and efforts for increasing recognition and participation of the parents.
