Abstract
The purpose of this study was to identify the degree of awareness and need for dental health insurance of parents with children under 12 years of age, and provide it as basic data for the development of the dental health insurance system in the future. It was conducted with 158 parents who are raising children under the age of 12 in Busan and Gyeongnam areas. In the case of mothers(p=.001), the higher the age (p=.005), the higher the experience of sealant. In the case of mothers, the knowledge of sealant (p=.012) was high. When the gender was female (p=.026), the parenting relationship was mother (p=.006), and regularly engaged in vocational activities (p=.003), the awareness of resin filling was high, and the experience was the child's age (p=. 004) was higher, the higher the knowledge was when the parenting relationship was mother (p=.024). The factors influencing the satisfaction of sealant were found to be the parents education level (p=.004), the awareness of the sealant (p=.003), and the experience (p=.011). From the above research results, more active publicity is needed to increase the awareness and experience of parents' health insurance.
본 연구는 12세 이하 자녀를 둔 학부모의 치과건강보험 인식도 및 필요도를 파악하여, 향후 치과건강보험 제도의 발전을 위한 기초자료로 제공하고자 하였다. 부산·경남 지역에 위치한 만12세 이하의 자녀를 양육하는 보호자 158명을 대상으로 수행하였으며, 양육 관계가 모(p=.001)인 경우, 나이(p=.005)가 높을수록 치아홈메우기 경험은 높았으며, 양육 관계가 모인 경우 치아홈메우기 지식(p=.012)은 높게 나타났다. 성별이 여자(p=.026), 양육 관계가 모(p=.006), 직업활동을 정기적으로 하는 경우(p=.003) 광중합형 복합레진 충전 인식도가 높았고, 경험은 자녀의 나이(p=.004)가 높을수록, 지식은 양육 관계가 모(p=.024)인 경우 높았다. 치아홈메우기 만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인은 양육자의 교육수준(p=.004), 치아홈메우기 인지(p=.003), 치아홈메우기 경험(p=.011)으로 나타났다. 이상의 연구결과를 종합할 때 학부모의 건강보험 인지도와 경험도를 높이기 위한 적극적인 홍보가 더욱 필요할것으로 여겨진다.
