Methods : The subjects were 133 teachers with or without the school dental clinic in Gunsan. A self-reported questionnaire was filled out by the teachers from September 9 to November 2, 2013. The data were analyzed by SPSS version 21.0. Results : The groups were divided into two. Experimental group was school dental clinic operation group and the control group was no operation group. The experiment group showed the high score of recognition of fluoridation and sealant(p<0.01). The control group showed the high score of recognition of sealant(p<0.01). Conclusions : Continuous operation of the school dental clinic is essential to promote the lifelong oral health care in the elementary school children and the teachers.
