Purpose: This study was performed to investigate the effects of oral health education on kindergarten children. Method: The study was designed as a quasi-experimental, nonequivalent control group pre -post test design. Data was collected from April 1st to November 30th, 2001. The total samples were sixty seven healthy kindergarten children; the experiment group consisted of thirty three and the control group was thirty four children. The experimental group received an oral health education program daily for 20 minutes for four weeks. Result: There was significant improvements on oral health behavior in the experimental group. Streptococcus mutans and lactobacilli of the salivary variables in the experimental group were significantly higher than the control group. The dmft was lower in the experimental group than the control group, but there was no significant difference between the two groups. However it was significantly lower in the experimental group than control group over time. Conclusion: Oral health education for kindergarten children showed an increase in the use of tooth paste and practicing correct tooth brush usage.

Objectives: We would like to manage university student's health factors by researching the connection between BMI and oral health and behavior of university students. And provide basic data by integrating for weight management programs that target overweight people can improve oral health. Methods: Self-evaluation questionnaires were surveyed for 315 students who agreed to participate in the survey, using questionnaires used in the preceding study were modified and complemented. We analyzed the data with frequency analysis, descriptive statistics, t-test, chi-square test와 ANOVA, Spearman correlation coefficient by using IBM SPSS Statistics 21.0 (IBM Co., Armonk, NY, USA). The significance level for significance was set at 0.05. Results: People who smoke and alcohol drink have a lower score in their oral health behavior and oral health knowledge than those who do not. There was a significant difference between the BMI group, in the oral health behavior and oral health knowledge scores. BMI and smoking (r=0.230, p<0.001), alcohol drinking (r=0.121, p<0.05) were significant positive correlation. BMI and sleep time (r=-0.127, p<0.05), oral health behaviors (r=-0.133, p<0.001) were significant negative correlation. oral health behaviors and oral health knowledge (r=0.344, p<0.001) were significant positive correlation. Conclusion: Schools and communities will need to be educated about smoking and drinking, while at the same time developing programs that can improve oral health by integrating weight management programs.

The purpose of this study was to develop game style courseware in oral health instruction for elementary school children. The manufacturing equipment and languages which were used to develop the courseware were： Photoshop version 7.0, Illustrator version 10.0, HTML, Dream Weaver MX, Editplus, CSS and Java - script. The data base was built up by using PHP and mySQL over Internet Explorer version 4.0. The contents of courseware for oral health education were based on the list of oral health affaires of the Department of Health and Welfare, 2002. The story of the game ‘Saving Hayani locked down in a castle of a cavity man’ was developed for the learners to learn oral health by inducing learning motivation. A character named ‘Chan i’ was introduced to the learners to be more friendly with the program while they were learning. As the game was made of three step education levels, the learner most pass the prepared test given at each step to advance to a higher level. A database connected to web was constructed to store the scores the learners earned at each step. In conclusion, the courseware will help the elementary school children learn oral health care efficiently through the internet regardless of time and space.

Objectives: Republic of Korea has entered an aged society, recently. As chronic diseases increase, elderly inpatients has been increasing and they have used caregivers for convenience. Accordingly, this study aims to investigate the oral health knowledge and attitude of caregivers on oral health management of elderly inpatients, which would affect the general health and quality of life. Methods: A survey questionnaire was distributed to the caregiver(n=165), at a neurosurgery or orthopedic hospital inpatient ward in Seoul, Gyeonggi-do from April 1 to 14, 2017. We analyzed the data with descriptive statistics analysis, chi-squared analysis and logistic regression analysis by using SPSS 23.0. Results: The response rate to the questionnaire was 92%. Oral health management provided by caregivers to inpatients in the elderly was prevention of oral diseases(92.8%), tooth brushing (89.5%), use of oral care products(68.4%), denture cleaning(90.8%) and oral cleaning(90.8%). Frequency analysis of oral health management in accordance with the educational needs of caregivers was all confirmed statistically significant(p<0.05). In the logistics regression model, oral health knowledge was significantly associated with low oral cleaning(OR=1.58) and oral health attitude was significantly associated with high denture cleaning(OR=1.29) and oral cleaning(OR=1.28) after adjustment for other covariates including gender, age, certification, education level, ward, working years. Conclusions: It is necessary to expand the scope and improve the quality of education that can change the attitudes and behaviors of the caregivers on the oral health management of the elderly on the basis of the current oral health education.

일부 지역 치위생(학)과 3, 4학년 학생 196명을 대상으로 장애인의 전반적인 인식, 장애인 치과학에 대한 교육 여부, 장애인 환자 구강관리 역량 자가평가를 자기기입식 설문지를 이용하여 조사하였다. 그 결과, 대상자의 대부분이 장애인이나 장애인 환자에 대한 긍정적인 인식을 가지고 있었으며 84.7%는 장애인 전문 치과위생사 양성이 필요하고 76.5%는 졸업 후에 장애인 치과진료 관련 세미나에 참가할 의향이 있다고 하였다. 그러나, 전체 대상자의 각 장애인별 업무역량에 대한 자가평가는 보통 수준 미만으로 장애인 치과치료에 대한 업무역량이 충분하지 않다고 생각하고 있었다. 대상자의 71.4%는 교과 및 비교과 교육과정에서 장애인 치과진료를 경험하였으며 경험을 한 대상자가 장애인 환자에 대한 지식, 구강보건교육, 구강병 예방처치, 진료보조, 의사소통의 대부분 영역에서 본인의 역량을 유의한 수준으로 높게 평가하였다. 이론교육이 충분하였다고 응답한 군에서도 충분하지 않았다고 응답한 군에 비해 장애인 환자 관리 역량에 대해 유의하게 높은 수준으로 자가평가를 하였다. 이를 토대로 보았을 때 현재 교육과정상 치위생(학)과 학생들의 장애인 치과치료에 대한 업무역량은 부족한 것으로 보이나 장애인 환자의 구강건강 관리 및 치과진료 보조에 대해 긍정적이며 장애인 환자에 대한 경험과 이론 교육 등이 효과를 나타낸다고 판단된다. 따라서, 교육과정에 장애인 치과학이 포함될 수 있도록 제도적 뒷받침이 필요하고 충분한 이론교육과 실습교육을 병행하여 장애인 환자의 구강건강 향상에 이바지할 수 있는 인력을 양성하도록 해야 한다. 또한, 현장 임상실습 교육 시 장애인 환자를 경험할 수 있는 여건을 마련하고 장애인 전문 치과위생사 양성에 대한 심도 있는 논의도 이루어져야 할 것이다.

The average annual dental treatment case per student was 0.16. 5. The oral examination case was 0.05, intraoral radiograph 0.01, oral prophylaxis 0.00, filling of dental carious lesion 0.02, pulp treatment 0.02, extraction of teeth 0.04, and others 0.02 annually in the average. In comparison with detectable need for dental treatment cases, oral prophylaxis was not supplied at all, filling of dental carious lesion was supplied about 1% and extraction of teeth was supplied about 10% of detectable need. 6. It was recommended that school incremental dental care project should be developed for school dental health programme in order to supply all of the detectable need for dental treatment.
