초록

본 연구는 근로자들의 구강건강관리행태와 결손치에 관한 영향요인을 파악하기 위하여 울산시 근로자 268명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하여 다음과 같은 연구 결과를 얻었다. 1. 구강건강인지도는 30대가 가장 높았고(p<0.01), 구강건강의 감수성에 대한 자기평가에서는 여성(p<0.01), 연령이 낮을수록(p<0.05), 학력이 높을수록 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<0.01). 2. 연령이 낮을수록(p<0.001), 학력이 높을수록 잇솔질 횟수가 많았고(p<0.001) 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 3. 하루 잇솔질 횟수가 많을수록 결손치의 비율이 낮았으며(p<0.01), 치아를 닦을 때 치간칫솔, 치실 등의 구강위생용품 사용하는 경우에 결손치의 비율이 낮았으며(p<0.01), 예방목적으로 치과 내원한 경우에 결손치 비율이 낮았으며 (p<0.05), 치주질환이 있는 경우에 결손치의 비율이 높아 통계적으로 유의하였다(p<0.01). 4. 구강건강인지도와 구강건강 감수성, 구강건강상태는 양의 상관관계로 나타났고, 구강건강상태와 결손치수, 잇솔질 횟수와 결손치수는 음의 상관관계를 보였다. 이에 근로자들은 구강보건교육을 통해 구강건강관리와 치아의 소중함을 배우고, 구강건강에 대한 의식을 고취시켜 근로자들의 구강건강을 증진 유지시키는 데 도움이 되는 방향으로 개선되어야 될 것이다.

This study conducted questionnaire survey with 268 workers in Ulsan city to examine influencing factors about Oral behavior and Missing teeth of some workers. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 12.0 program. The analysis results are as follows. 1. Oral health awareness was highest in thirties (p<0.01). For oral health sensitivity, female was higher than male (p<0.01). The lower the age was (p<0.05) and the higher the academic background was, there was statistically significant difference (p<0.01). 2. The lower the age was (p<0.001) and the higher the academic background was, the number of daily tooth brushing was more (p<0.001) and there was statistically significant difference. 3. The more the number of daily tooth brushing was, portion of Missing teeth was low (p<0.01). When oral hygiene devices such as interdental brush, dental floss etc. were used, portion of Missing teeth was low (p<0.01). When dental visit for prevention was made, portion of Missing teeth was low (p<0.05). In case of periodontal disease, portion of Missing teeth was high so that there was statistically significant difference (p<0.01). 4. There was positive relationship according to oral health awareness and oral health sensitivity, oral health status. The oral health status and Missing teeth had a negative effect relationship. Relationship between number of Tooth brushing and Missing teeth showed negative one. In summary, oral health education is needed to increase the motivation of industrial workers to control their basic dental disease.
