최근 우리나라 의료보험재정에서 구강진료비로 사용된 액수가 1990년에 1,869억원이었고, 1994년에 2,786억원, 1995년도에 3,507억원, 1998에는 5,986억원, 1999년에는 6,778억원으로 지난 10년간 계속 증가하는 양상을 보이고 있다. 그러나 치아우식증과 치주병으로 인하여 발거된 치아를 보철하는 비용은 이 치료비보다 훨씬 많을 것으로 추정되고 있어서 구강건강 관리비가 국민에게 부담이 되고 있을 것으로 추정된다. 과거부터 치아건강이 오복의 하나에 들 만큼 소중함에도 불구하고 여전히 치아우식증(충치)를 포함한 구강질환은 우리나라 사람의 다빈도 질환으로 자리 잡고 있다. 이달의 건강 길라잡이에서는 6월 9일 ‘치아의 날’에 즈음하여 일반적인 구강건강과 특히 청소년기 치아건강의 중요성을 새롭게 인식함으로써 외상으로부터 치아를 보호하여 평생 치아건강으로 적극적인 건강생활을 실천하는 계기를 마련하고자 한다.

본 연구는 우리나라 청소년의 치주건강상태와 구강건강인식 및 행태간의 연관성을 파악하여 구강건강향상을 위한 방안을 제시하고자 하며, 청소년 치주질환 예방 프로그램의 기초자료를 제공하는데 목적을 두었다. 연구문제의 검증을 위해 2006년도 국민구강건강실태조사의 원시자료를 활용해이중 구강검진과 학생용 면접기록지를 동시에 수행한 만 12~18세의 청소년 총 5,192명을 대상으로 하였다. 분석결과, 청소년의 치주건강상태를 성별, 연령별로 보면, 남자가 여자에 비해, 또한 연령이 많아질수록 치주건강상태가 나쁜 것으로 나타났다(P<.0001). 성별과 연령을 보정한 후 치주건강상태와 구강건강 인식 및 행태와의 관련성을 보면 주관적 구강건강인식이 좋지 않은 청소년이 좋은 청소년에 비해 불건 강한 치주조직군에 속할 가능성이 1.7배 높았고[Odds Ratio(OR)=1.74; p<0.001], 구강건강행태 변수 중 점심식사 후 잇솔질을 하지 않는 청소년은 잇솔질을 하는 청소년에 비해 불건강한 치주조직군에 속할 가능성이 1.6배 높았다(OR=0.1.59; P<0.001). 한편 구강건강행태 변수 중 1일 간식횟수는 치주조직의 건강상태와 통계적으로 유의하였으나, OR 값이 1보다 낮았다[1일 간식횟수가 4회 이상(OR=0.61; P<0.001), 2~3회(OR=0.58;P<0.001), 1회(OR=0.71;P<0.001)]. 끝으로 청소년의 구강건강 행태 변화를 통해 구강건강을 향상시킬 수 있음은 물론 청소년의 치주질환예방 및 관리프로그램 계획시 올바른 구강건강행태를 가지도록 하는 것의 중요성을 암시하고 있다.

Subjects in their 20s to 50s were selected through the convenience sampling method and eleven questions were set as factors and answered via self-administered questionnaires. To determine statistical significance, analysis of variance was used with the level of significance set at 0.05. The subjects' perception of the association between chronic diseases and oral health were analyzed with respect to their health behaviors. Individuals with relatively higher stress levels demonstrated higher levels of perception levels (p<0.05). Public education regarding the association between chronic diseases and oral health has not been ideally effective in South Korea. Thus, the general public's perceptions of the association between chronic diseases and oral health should be revised. In addition aspects regarding this matter should be enhanced within oral health education programs which often only focus on demonstrating the importance of oral health management so that individuals can get sufficient information on the association between chronic diseases and oral health.

This study aimed to provide basic data for oral health promotion in adults by analyzing causal relationships for oral health practice determinants. A total of 204 questionnaires obtained from adults living in Busan and Gyeongnam area were analyzed to verify the study model with the Smart PLS v2.0 M2 software. Among oral health belief factors, the severity of and susceptibility to oral disease and benefit of oral care behavior affected oral health-related self-efficacy. The self-efficacy on ordinary oral health care behavior significantly affected overall oral health practice. The severity of and susceptibility to oral disease and benefit of oral disease prevention behavior affected toothbrushing habit and oral examination and training through toothbrushing-related self-efficacy. Therefore, the increased oral health-related self-efficacy through strategic efforts, including various training media development, with improved awareness of oral health belief by continuous oral health care program development will lead to continuous oral health practice in adults.
