Abstract
For the purpose of examining the dental biofilm reduction effect and control difficulty level through a dental biofilm control program in this study, the total of 131 medical records (82.9%) were used for the final analysis upon excluding the records that were not suitable for this study among the records of 158 persons for the medical records of clinical hygiene case reports that were submitted from 2006 to 2011 by students at the Department of Dental Hygiene at N University located in Chungnam region. The result of examining the dental biofilm reduction effect according to the visit number when conducting a dental biofilm control program showed that the dental biofilm index reduced meaningfully as the visit number increased. However, in the case of those that visited for 7 sessions, the level of reduction was not statistically meaningful. For the purpose of comparing the dental biofilm index mean per area of teeth during the final session visit of dental biofilm control program, the area of teeth was classified into labial/buccal surface, lingual/palatal surface and proximal surface, and the dental biofilm index of lingual/palatal surface was the highest with 26.5%. The result of measuring the dental biofilm of maxilla/mandible revealed meaningful differences between the dental biofilm index of maxilla and mandible. The result of analyzing the dental biofilm index of labial/buccal surface, lingual/palatal surface and proximal surface revealed meaingful differences among the dental biofilm index of labial/ buccal surface, lingual/palatal surface and proximal surface.
