  • The aim was to be utilized as basic data in arranging efficient plan for removing halitosis by surveying correlation with halitosis components by each factor after measuring halitosis and analyzing components by subject of adults on halitosis. It targeted totally 160 people by 80 outpatients of 1 dental hospital, respectively, where is located in Daejeon and Chungnam, for 12 months from February 1, 2011 to January 30, 2012. As a result of analysis, in the halitosis measurement value of Oral chroma, it was shown to be 9.4% in case of being more than 112ppb in the measurement value of hydrogen sulfide, 20.6% in case of being more than 26ppb in the measurement value of methyl mercaptan, and 44.0% in case of being more than 8ppb in the measurement value of dimethyl sulfide, which was indicated to be the highest value among three components. Only the methyl mercaptan component and the dimethyl sulfide component, which were measured with oral chroma, stood at 0.578, thereby having been shown to have high positive correlation. Accordingly, a multilateral research is considered to be likely necessity as for diverse components of causing halitosis.

  • Deodorizing activity of polyphenol cxidase (PPO) extracted from apples was investigated by measuring the changes of methyl mercaptan as an indicator of halitosis in human mouths. In the studies of apple extracts on deodorizing activity, the deodorizing activity was increased with the amount of apple extracts. In the cases of adding PPO to the low molecular fraction of apple extracts, the deodorizing activities were increased with the amount of the law molecular fraction of apple extracts and the reaction time of the extracts with PPO. Deodorizing activities of PPO is thought that o-quinone as an intermidiate produced by an oxidative reaction of PPO during enzymatic browning reactions may react with methyl mercaptan to form a non-volatile and sulfur-containing compound .

  • This study was carried out in order to offer basic data for preventing halitosis by understanding about the factors related to self-awareness of halitosis and about the relationship with stress and compulsion targeting students for the Department of Dental Hygiene. As a result of research, the whole subjects were indicated to be 1.76 points for the mean in stress, 1.62 points for the mean in compulsion, and 1.84 points for the mean in self-awareness of halitosis. The group of feeling the tongue to be white and the inside of the mouth to be sticky in own symptom inside the mouth was indicated to be 2.02 points(p=0.000) for stress and 2.00 points(p=0.000) for self-awareness of halitosis. The group of often feeling a sense of oral dryness was indicated to be 2.23 points(p=0.000) for stress, 1.95 points(p=0.000) for compulsion, and 1.89 points(p=0.046) for self-awareness of halitosis. The self-awareness of halitosis stood at r=0.133 with compulsion, thereby having indicated slight positive correlation. Stress and compulsion showed high positive correlation with r=0.425. Accordingly, there is a need of infusing recognition through steady education as a dental hygienist who will have interest in emotional factor along with grasping diverse causes for halitosis, and who will be in charge of a future patients' halitosis.

  • The aim of this study is to clinically evaluate the effect of a mouthwash containing cetylpyridinium and zinc chloride on reduction of morning oral malodor in healthy subjects measured by organoleptic measurement and a portable sulfide monitor. A total of 8 healthy non-smoking male volunteers were enrolled in this study of crossover design consisting of two experimental phases. The subjects were instructed to rinse the mouth with 10 mL of the experimental mouthwash containing cetylpyridinium and zinc chloride for 30 seconds at the first phase. At the second phase after a one-week washout period, each subject rinsed with distilled water as a control. All experiments were conducted at around 8:30 a.m. and oral malodor was measured using organoleptic measurement and a portable sulfide monitor just before rinsing with the experimental mouthwash or control (baseline), 1 hr, 2 hrs, and 3 hrs after rinsing. The mouthwash containing cetylpyridinium and zinc chloride reduced morning oral malodor up to 3 hrs after rinsing. Organoleptic score and concentrations of volatile sulfur compounds after use of the experimental mouthwash significantly decreased with time, and the decreases were significantly different between the mouthwash and control. In conclusion, the mouthwash containing cetylpyridinium and zinc chloride is significantly effective on reduction of morning oral malodor in healthy subjects by 3 hrs.

  • This study examined the tongue coating index and halitosis to determine the association with the oral care behavior and variation in halitosis according to the tongue coating index, dental calculus, and the oral environment before and after scaling among 130 participants in scaling practices of the Department of Dental Hygiene at K University in Daejeon. The subjects were asked to participate in a survey, in an oral examination for the tongue coating index, dental plaque, and dental calculus status, and in halitosis measurement. The tongue coating most significantly affected halitosis and the tongue coating index was strongly correlated with smoking and tongue washing. More frequent toothbrushing, a lower level of halitosis; and nonsurgical treatment of scaling were effective in reducing halitosis; age was associated with the tongue coating index. Therefore, it will be necessary to perform good oral care and reduce the amount of dental plaque and tongue coating and undergo regular scaling with the objective of improving oral health and reducing halitosis.

  • In our study, we investigated self-evaluation of tongue coating, self-rating intensity of oral malodor, habit related to tooth brushing and tongue scraping. Investigation was carried out on 714 Korean college students by method of self-reporting to prepared questionnaire. The obtained data were processed and analyzed with SAS program. The results of this study are as follows. 1. Students who have frequently experienced tongue coating have tendency to have stronger oral malodor than the other students. 2. The self-reporting prevalence rate of oral malodor is 81.1%. 3. Students who brush teeth shortly and irregularly have tendency to have stronger oral malodor than the other students. 4. Students with strong oral malodor have tendency to neglect scraping tongue. 5. Students with low index of tooth brushing or low index of oral hygiene controllability have tendency to have stronger oral malodor than the other students. 6. Mean scales of tooth brushing index(p<.0001), tongue scraping index(p=0.0439) and oral hygiene controllability index(p<.0001) among students in the department of Dental Hygiene and Dental Technology are significantly higher than those among general students.

  • 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.
