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.
