Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effects of mental health factors on oral symptoms and the relationship between the two in Korean adolescents. Materials and Methods: Raw data of 54,948 Korean adolescents among the participants of the 17th Korean Youth Health Behavior Survey conducted in 2021 by the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency were analyzed in this study. Results: Mental health factors evaluated in this study included sadness and despair, suicidal thoughts, suicide attempt, loneliness, stress, depression, and anxiety. Our findings showed that all mental health factors were associated with oral symptoms. Particularly, factors affecting dental pain were suicidal thoughts, stress, anxiety, loneliness, depression, sadness, and despair. Further, all mental health factors affected ulorrhagia. Conclusion: In conclusion, the findings in this study are expected to contribute to the development of programs for the intervention of key mental health factors affecting oral symptoms to improve overall health in Korean adolescents.

목적: 본 연구에서는 한국 청소년을 대상으로 구강 증상 경험별로 정신건강 요인과의 관련성을 파악하고, 정신 건강 요인이 구강 증상 경험에 미치는 영향에 대해 살펴보았다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 질병관리청에서 2021년 수행한 제17차 청소년건강행태조사의 원시자료를 이용하여 54,948명을 분석하였다. 정신건강 요인은 슬픔과 절망감, 자살생각, 자살시도, 외로움, 스트레스, 우울감, 불안으로 구성하였다. 결과: 모든 정신건강 요인은 구강 증상 경험과 관련성이 있었다. 구강 증상 경험에 영향을 미치는 정신건강 요인은 치아파절 경험에서는 슬픔과 절망감, 자살시도, 불안, 스트레스였고, 치아통증 경험에서는 자살생각, 스트레스, 불안, 외로움, 우울감, 슬픔과 절망감이었다. 잇몸출혈 경험에서는 모든 정신건강 요인이 영향을 미쳤다. 결론: 따라서, 각 구강 증상 경험에 영향을 미치는 주요한 정신건강 요인을 중재하여 청소년들의 건강을 증진시킬 수 있는 프로그램이 개발되길 기대한다.
