The purpose of this study was to examine the oral health status and knowledge of dental laboratory technology student for the community to improve oral health and oral health education to help. The subjects in this study were 160 students in dental laboratory technology at the University located in Chung-cheong and surveyed from November 2010 to December 2010. The finding of the study were as follows: The differences in oral care knowledge according general characteristics of subjects was statistically significant to the gender was higher in men than women, age was higher and higher the grade was higher in grade level(p<0.05). The differences in oral care knowledge according oral health status of subjects was statistically significant to regarding the frequency of tooth brushing was highest rate in five times, method was on the side tooth higher and using the dental floss and interdental brush are used by the higher availability(p<0.05). Thus, in the classroom oral health education and continuous learning from the people know that oral health care could differ. Oral health education in local communities to increase opportunities and people will need to improve oral health.

This research targeted 253 dental hygienists who are working in parts of the South Gyeongnam Province to identify their Degree of Recognition on the Elderly Long-term Care Insurance System executed on July 1,2008 according to their awareness. The following conclusions were obtained. 1. Experience in managing elderly patients' oral cavity and specialized education on the elderly patients while studying dental hygiene (department) manifested statically significant difference with the appropriate age of the Long-term care worker(p<0.01, p<0.05). Moreover, there was significant difference in the level of understanding on the Elderly Long-term Care Insurance System depending on the experience of volunteering and on whether they got specialized education on the elderly patients while working(p<0.01). 2. There was significant difference in the awareness of the Elderly Long-term Care Insurance System following interest in the health of the elderly patients' oral cavity(p<0.05, p<0.01, p<0.001).

연구 목적 : 구취의 주된 화학적 요소는 휘발성 황 화합물 (VSCs)들이다. 이들은 치태, 설태, 타액과 혈액, 상피세포의 혐기성 그람 음성 세균에 의한 단백분해 변성으로 만들어 진다. 또한 구취는 치주질환과 타액내의 세균의 증가를 야기하는 불량한 구강 위생상태에서 기인한다고 보고되고 있다. 이 연구의 목적은 VSCs를 측정함으로 구취에 대한 비외과적 치주 치료의 영향을 평가하고, 타액내의 세균 수를 측정함으로써 VSCs와의 상관관계를 살펴보고자 하는 것이다. 연구 대상 및 방법 : 중등도의 만성치주염을 가지는 23명의 참가자들이 대조군과 실험군으로 분류되었다. 대조군은 구강위생교육 (치간청결기구와 혀세정 포함)만을 시행하였고 실험군은 구강위생교육과 함께 24시간 내에 전악 치석제거술과 치근활택술을 시행하였다. 치료 전과 치료 4주 후에 VSCs 농도를 $Halimeter^{(R)}$(Interscan Corp., CA, USA)를 사용하여 측정하였고 타액 시료는 혐기성과 호기성 조건에서 배양되었다. 결과 : 4주 후에 두 군 모두에서 휘발성 황화합물의 농도가 유의하게 감소하였고, 실험군에서의 감소량이 통계적으로 유의하게 더 크게 나타났다. 타액 내 세균의 배양에서 총세균수에 대한 혐기성 세균의 비율이 실험군에서만 통계적으로 유의하게 감소하였다. 그러나 세균의 비율과 휘발성 황화합물의 농도와의 상관관계는 낮게 나타났다. 즉 구취의 감소는 타액 요인 보다는 치주치료에 의한 다른 복합적인 인자의 작용에 의한 것으로 추론할 수 있었다. 결론 : 본 연구는 중등도의 치주염환자에서 구강위생교육만으로도 구취의 주요 화학적 요인인 휘발성 황화합물의 농도를 감소시킬 수 있으나 비외과적 치주치료를 동반하였을 때 더욱 큰 효과를 얻을 수 있는 것으로 해석된다. 그러나 실험 참가자의 수가 적었고 장기간의 분석이 이루어지지 않았으므로 앞으로 더 많은 연구가 구취에 대한 치주치료의 영향을 이해하기 위해서 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Background: Preventive dental hygiene programs are phased oral health management practices tailored to the oral health conditions of individuals. These programs include preventive dental hygiene treatments and oral health education provided by dental hygienists to prevent oral diseases. This study aims to investigate dental hygienists' interest in and perceived necessity of preventive dental hygiene programs and provide essential data for their widespread adoption. Methods: The survey included 11 questions regarding participants' general characteristics, such as gender, age, educational level, work experience, employment type, working hours, type of workplace, job position, work location, and the number of dentists and dental hygienists at their workplace. Seven additional questions focused on program awareness and necessity, including previous training, program awareness, necessity and reasons for necessity, program implementation and required elements for implementation, and the potential for expanding job roles through the programs. Results: Among all respondents, 90.9% were aware of preventive dental hygiene programs, and 92.8% believed they were necessary. A total of 74.7% had received education on preventive dental hygiene programs, and those who had been educated were more likely to implement the programs than those who had not. Among dental hygienists who cited preventing patients' oral diseases as the primary reason for the necessity of these programs, 55.2% were actively implementing them-the highest rate among all respondents. Preventive dental hygiene programs were most commonly implemented in clinics with two or more dentists and six or more dental hygienists. When the importance of raising dental hygienists' awareness was emphasized, the program implementation rates were highest. Conclusion: This study suggests that dental hygienists' willingness to implement preventive dental hygiene programs plays a pivotal role in shaping the perspectives of dentists and patients, as well as in enhancing their economic evaluation.

This study examined living rehabilitation teachers of disability facilities in Kyungkido to determine the status of the personal and oral hygiene of the disabled. The results are as follows. First, the personal hygiene of residential disabled people was positively correlated with voluntary toothbrushing, recognition of the importance of toothbrushing, and finding of their own toothbrush. Second, the difficulties related to the oral hygiene practice of residents with disabilities were found to be carrying out abnormalities in their toothbrush and oral examinations at dental medical institutions. In addition, in the spontaneous performance, they did not do well in gum massage and in restraining sugary foods. Third, voluntary toothbrushing was positively correlated with training on toothbrushing, and toothbrushing for more than 3 minutes and the rolling method toothbrushing were positively correlated with the supplement of oral health materials. Therefore, a dental hygiene management program is required continuously for living rehabilitation teachers and the disabled.

To conduct this study, researchers personally visited two maternity hospitals, one public centers, and two gymnastics classes for pregnant women in some areas of Seoul from March 14 to April 28, 2005 to determine a simplified oral hygiene index to measure cleanness for 200 women in the twenty weeks and over of pregnancy in order to examine their oral health conditions and provide basic data for the future oral health care and education in oral hygiene for pregnant women and, consequently, drew the following conclusions. 1. Simplified oral hygiene index between early, middle, and late pregnancy. It was shown that the Early was $1.10{\pm}.91$, Middle was $1.78{\pm}1.02$, The simplified oral hygiene index of Late was $1.73{\pm}1.03$. The simplified oral hygiene index of Total was $1.47{\pm}1.03$, with a Food debris index $0.96{\pm}0.51$ and a Calculus score $0.51{\pm}0.52$. 2. There were statistically significant differences in the simplified oral hygiene index of both the upper and the lower jaws between early, middle, and late pregnancy (p < 0.01). It was shown that the Food debris index, Calculus score, and the simplified oral hygiene index all increased with the approach of delivery. 3. There were statistically significant differences in the simplified oral hygiene index of both the anterior and the posterior areas between early, middle, and late pregnancy (p < 0.01). It was found that the Food debris index, Calculus score, and the simplified oral hygiene index all increased with the approach of delivery.
