초록

본 연구는 노인의 주관적 치아건강수준(20개 이상 현존자연치의 보유)에 영향을 미치는 요인을 알아보고자 2013년 5월 27일부터 6월 5일까지 제주도 서귀포시 보건소(지소)를 방문하는 60세 이상 노인 중 연구의 취지를 설명하고 동의한 396명에게 설문조사를 시행하여 분석한 결과 현존자연치아가 20개 이상인 대상자에서 주관적 치아건강 수준이 '보통'이다 73.3%가장 높았고 19개 이하인 대상자에서는 '나쁨'이 41.1%로 높아 차이가 있었다(p<0.05). 주관적 치아건강에 영향을 미치는 요인으로 성별에서 여자가 남자보다 4.3배 더 높게 나타났고, 학력에서는 '고졸이상' 학력이 높을수록, 월평균 가구소득은 '200만 원 이상' 높을수록 주관적 치아건강수준이 높았다(p<0.01). 따라서 노인기까지 20개 이상의 자연치아를 보존함으로써 구강건강은 물론 전신건강을 유지, 증진하여 노년기 삶의 질을 높이는 것이 무엇보다 중요하며 국가 차원의 무료 구강검진 및 구강보건교육이 체계적이고 지속적으로 시행될 수 있는 구강보건사업이나 구강보건프로그램을 계획해야 할 것으로 생각된다.

This study was Dental health determinants of elderly people. For this purpose, a questionnaire was done for 396 elderly people of 60 or more years old who have visited Seogwipo city public health center(branch) in Jejudo from May 27th to June 5th 2013 after they heard the intention of that investigation. Result of the most answers were 'normal' for the question asking the subjective status of teeth health of whom having more than 20 natural teeth as 73.3%; the most answers of whom with less than 19 natural teeth were 'bad' as 41.4%, which showed difference(p<0.05). The factors influencing the subjective teeth health were 4.3times higher in cases of women than men. The higher educational(high school or more)had they, the more monthly average income(2 million won or more) did they have, the higher was their subjective teeth health status(p<0.01). It is more important than anything that they reserve more than 20 natural teeth until they get old to keep and improve their oral and body health. In addition to that, the oral health project or oral health program to perform country-wide programs for free, consistent and systematic oral health examination and education should be planned.
