The purpose of this study was to develop a program of oral health education for children and to furnish basic data contributing to the improvement of children's oral health. In this study, we tried to analyze and discover the types of recognition in parents of children's oral care. With the use of Q-methodology that could systematically and scientifically estimate the subjectivity of humans, 28 parents were collected as a P-sample. 3 general types were discovered. The characteristics of each type were the following: Type 1. "Serious consideration of prevention care type" took a positive attitude to their children's oral care, were knowledgable, and maintained high concern about oral care. They regularly visited dentists for prevention and believed in caries prevention through brushing teeth. They also put high trust in dentists. Type 2. "Disposition by the existing state type" believed that caries could develop even with brushing teeth and could be inherited from parents, Practically, they had a passive attitude to their children's oral care depending on stages and were more concerned with the appearance of dentition than with their children's oral health. Type 3. "Home care-centered type" had less knowledge about children's oral care than the other two types and was careless for teeth prevention. Therefore, they had not intended to participate in the oral health education program.

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.

The purpose of this study was to examine the oral health awareness and oral health care of health-related and health-unrelated majors in an attempt to stress the importance of oral health education and boost the efficiency of oral health care. The subjects in this study were 363 college students. Out of the selected students, 174 were health-related majors, and 189 weren't. After a survey was conducted, the collected data were analyzed for the purpose of comparison, and the following findings were given: 1. Concerning daily mean toothbrushing frequency, the largest number of the male students who accounted for 55.2 percent brushed their teeth once a day on average, and the greatest number of the female students who represented 52.9 percent did that twice a day. As for the influence of their major, the largest group of the health-related majors who numbered 89(51.1%) brushed their teeth twice a day, and the greatest group of the health-unrelated majors who numbered 93(49.2%) did that once a day. The gaps between them were statistically significant(p<0.05). 2. As to the length of toothbrushing time by gender, it took more than two or three minutes for the largest groups of the male and female students that respectively numbered 96(76.8%) and 184(77.3%) to do toothbrushing(p<0.01). The greatest groups of the male and female students that respectively numbered 72(57.6%) and 183(76.9%) brushed their teeth after meals. 3. In regard to oral hygiene supplies, the largest groups of the health-related and health-unrelated majors that respectively numbered 78(44.8%) and 115(60.8%) had chewing gum and candy with them. As to the use of oral hygiene supplies, 99 health-related majors(56.9%) and 133 health-unrelated majors(70.4%) didn't put oral hygiene supplies to use. Thus, the use of oral hygiene supplies was statistically less common among the health-unrelated majors, and the gap between the two was significant(p<0.01). 4. As for health-related concern by gender, the largest group of the male students that numbered 56(44.8%) showed the most interest in preventing dental caries, and the greatest group of the female students that numbered 103(43.3%) were most concerned about tooth whitening. The gap between the male and female students was statistically significant(p<0.05), but the track of their major made no statistically significant difference to that. 5. Regarding the experience and awareness of scaling, the largest number of the students never got their teeth scaled regardless of gender and major, and the greatest group didn't care about scaling irrespective of gender and major, either, though they considered it advisable to do.
