Abstract

The purpose of this study was to provide basic data necessary for improving the oral health of the elderly and quality of their lives by analyzing the relationship among the geriatric denture-related characteristics, denture satisfaction, and geriatric oral health assessment index. For this study, the elderly aged 65 or higher who resided in Euseong-gun, Yeongju-si, Andong-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do were surveyed from March 25, 2013 to May 9 of the same year. The results of this study showed that the denture satisfaction had high correlation with the 'satisfaction with denture attachment', 'satisfaction with aesthetic function of pronunciation', and satisfaction with masticatory function. Moreover, the causative relation was found to exist among the geriatric denture-related characteristics, denture satisfaction, and geriatric oral health assessment index. Thus, it is considered necessary to establish the institutional system and take measures that can improve the awareness towards the geriatric oral health education and geriatric oral health state with respect to effective use and management of denture.

본 연구는 노인의 의치 관련 특성, 의치 만족도, 구강건강관련 삶의 질 간의 관계를 분석함으로써, 향후 노인의 구강건강 증진과 삶의 질 향상을 위한 기초자료를 마련하고자 한다. 경북지역 안동시, 영주시, 의성군에 거주하는 65세 이상 노인을 대상으로 2013년 3월 25일부터 5월 9일까지 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구결과 의치만족도는 의치고정만족, 발음심미만족, 저작기능만족 서로 높은 상관관계가 나타났고, 노인의 의치관련 특성, 의치만족도, 구강건강관련 삶의 질 간에 인과관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 효과적인 의치사용과 관리를 위한 노인구강보건교육과 노인 구강건강상태 인식수준을 향상 시킬 수 있는 제도적 및 방안이 마련되어야 할 것이다.
