본 연구는 유아교사와 어머니들의 구강건강지식, 유아구강건강관리행동, 그리고 구강건강교육에 대한 인식 차를 알아보고자 충북 Y군 유아교사 90명과 어머니 235명을 대상으로 설문조사를 하였으며, SPSS Windows ver. 12.0 (SPSS Inc.)을 이용하여 분석한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 유아교사들과 어머니들의 구강건강지식정도는 차이가 없었다. 2. 유아교사들은 어머니들에 비해 보다 바람직한 치아우식예방 행동, 칫솔관리행동, 구강위생행동 지도를 하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 41%의 어머니들은 유아교육 및 보육 기관에서 실시하는 구강정기검진과 이후의 처치서비스에 대해 무관심하거나 인지하지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 3. 어머니들은 유아교사들에 비해 구강건강에 대한 관심이 높으나, 유아교사들에 비해 구강건강교육에 대한 경험이 적었다. 어머니들은 유아들의 구강건강관리에 대한 내용으로 구강건강교육을 받기를 원하였고, 유아교사들은 구강건강교육을 위한 지침서와 매체에 대한 구강건강교육을 받기를 원하는 것으로 나타났다. 유아교육 및 보육기관과 가정에서 일관되게 유아를 위해 양질의 구강건강관리를 위해서는 유아교사와 어머니들 모두에게 구강보건교육에 대한 인식을 높이고, 유아구강건강 관리행동의 이행을 위해 올바른 구강건강지식을 전달하고 그들이 부족하다고 생각되는 영역에 대한 내용의 유아구강 보건교육 프로그램 개발이 요구되며, 또한 이들이 이런 프로그램을 손쉽게 접할 수 있는 교육방법 및 매체의 개발도 필요하다고 사료된다.

본 연구는 실제적으로 어린이를 대상으로 구강보건교육을 시행하고 있는 구강보건교육자인 치위생과 학생 80명을 대상으로 Pea-size로 짜는 방법과, 가로짜기로 짜는 방법으로 짠 세치제 양을 비교하였고, 5~7세 어린이 66명을 대상으로 평소 잇솔질 시 통상적으로 세치제를 짜는 방법과, Pea-size 및 가로짜기 방법으로 짠 양을 비교하여 평가하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 치위생과 학생들이 Pea-size 방법으로 짠 세치제의양은 0.40 g, 가로짜기 방법으로 짠 세치제의 양은 0.34 g으로 유의한 차이가 나타나 가로짜기로 짰을때 더 적은양의 세치제를 짜는 것으로 나타났다(p < 0.05). 2. 5~7세 어린에서는 평소 통상적으로 짜는 방법대로 짠 양이 0.40 g, Pea-size 방법으로 짠 세치제량은 0.43 g, 가로짜기 방법으로 짠 세치제량은 0.26 g으로, Pea-size 방법으로 짠 세치제량 가장 많았다. 따라서 현재 구강보건교육시 권고하는 Pea-size 방법을 고려해야 할 필요성이 있다고 생각되었다. 3. 어린이들이 세치제를 짜는 방법별로 사용된 세치제량을 비교해 본 결과, 가로짜기 방법으로 짠 세치제량을 Pea-size로 짠 세치제량과 비교했을 때 약65%,통상적인 방법으로 짠 세치제량과 비교했을 때 약 60% 감소를 보여주었다. 뿐만 아니라 어린이들에게서 가로짜기방법으로 짠 세치제량의 편차가 더 적은 것을 역시 확인할 수 있었다. 4. 가로짜기 방법은 부모나 어린이에게 구강보건교육 시 짜는 방법을 보여주며 교육할 수 있으므로 효과적일 뿐만 아니라, 불소세치제 사용량의 감소로 부주의한 불소 섭취를 최소화할 수 있어 어린이에게 추천할 수 있다.

Periodontal disease is caused by accumulation of bacterial plaque. For the reason, plaque control is essential to control and prevent periodontal disease. Among the plaque control methods, mechanical plaque removal, tooth brushing is common and reliable. But it depends on individual habituation and their manner. To catch up the gap of effectiveness, lots of oral hygiene appliances have been developing. Powered toothbrush is the most interesting field and is showing on the market with various motion type. This study was performed to compare clinical effects of plaque removal between powered toothbrush and manual toothbrush. The results were as follows : 1. Plaque index was decreased statistically after the brushing than before the brushing in every group.(p<0.05) 2. Comparing plaque index among the three groups before and after brushing, there were no statistically significant differences. 3. Interproximal plaque index was decreased statistically after the brushing than before the brushing in every group.(p<0.05) 4. Comparing interproximal plaque index among the three groups before and after brushing, there were no statistically significant differences.
