Abstract

This study analyzed the rate of unmet dental care service for the disabled who were judged to require the dentistry due to oral health-related problems and those reasons, and also examined the oral health status according to the unmet dentistry. 375 subjects, who were 19 years or older and completed oral health examination and a survey, among 444 responded positive of disability registration after participation in National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey(NHANES), were analyzed. Disability type was classified into 6 kinds(physical disability, brain lesions, sensory defect, developmental disability, mental disorder, endocrine disorder). Participants had 128 of their dental care needs unmet when it was required. 'Financial burden' was the main reason, with the subject of 49.2%, followed by 'lower on the priority scale' were 18.0%. The high frequency and progression permanent teeth caries experiencs and periodontal status of their dental disease were confirmed. In availability aspect of dentistry resources, it is required for using dentistry service smoothly through providing sufficient proper dental care service comparing with the number of the disabled.

이 연구는 장애인 대상 치과진료 필요자 중 치과의료 서비스 미충족율과 그 이유를 조사하고, 미충족 치과치료에 따른 구강상태를 분석하였다. 국민건강영양조사 참여 대상 중 만 19세 이상 장애등록 응답자 444명을 선정하였고, 그 중 구강검진과 설문조사를 완료한 대상자 375명을 최종분석하였다. 장애유형은 6종류(지체장애, 뇌병변장애, 감각장애, 발달장애, 정신장애, 내분비장애)로 분류하였다. 연구대상자 중 미충족 치과치료 대상자는 128명이었으며, 최근 1년 동안 치과진료를 받지 못한 가장 주된 이유는 '경제적인 이유로'에 대한 항목이 49.2%으로 가장 많았으며, '다른 문제에 비해 덜 중요하다고 느껴서'에 대한 항목이 18.0%이었다. 치주질환과 영구치우식경험을 가진 장애인 중 미충족 치과치료 빈도와 진행정도가 높은 것으로 확인하였다. 치과진료 자원의 가용성 측면에서 장애인 수 대비 적절한 치과진료 서비스를 충분히 제공하여 치과진료 서비스의 원활한 이용이 요구된다.
