국민의 구강건강을 보호 증진시켜, 궁극적으로 복지사회를 실현시키기 위한 구강보건사업은 대상에 따라 모자구강보건 사업, 학교구강보건사업, 성인구강보건사업, 노인구강보건사업 등으로 분류할 수 있다. 그리고, 이들 구강보건사업 중에서 특히, 학교구강보건사업은 앞으로 우리나라의 주빈이 될 2세 국민을 대상으로 한다는 점과 또한, 구강에 빈발하여 구강건강장애를 많이 유발시키는 중대 구강병인 치아우식증과 부정교합은 국민학교 학령기에 빈발하고, 치주병도 치은염으로 국민학교 졸업기에 대개 발생되어, 일생의 구강건강기틀은 국민학교 학령기에 마련된다고 보아야 하므로, 구강보건사업 중에서도 학교구강보건사업이 가장 우선적으로 개발 추진되어야 한다.
