This study focused on the status of dental care development for children and adolescents. In contrast to the chronic disease management project, this research intended to provide basic data for the expansion of the system. We summarized the status of the system's expansion since 2012. It analyzed research reports, papers, related literature and books on the system of children and adolescent dental care service. The literature analysis classifies year, publication, title and published location. The current state of the system is listed as location, target, support funds, etc. Implementation of the project was first discussed in 2007. Initial planning focused on the Oral Health Policy Research Society of the Gunchi. Effective measures were formulated in 2008 under the center of the Gunchi.

Objectives: This study identified problems and improvements in projects targeted to dental workers in a child-adolescent dental care service. Methods: The subjects were 40 dentists, 43 dental hygienists, and 51 others who participated in service in Seoul. A self-administered questionnaire was used to address the problems and improvements in the project. Descriptive statistics, chi-square test, and one-way analysis of variance were performed using SPSS 23.0. Results: Oral examination was performed by 99.2% of dentists, and some service items such as professional tooth cleaning, fluoride application, and scaling were performed by dental auxiliary personnel regardless of legal duties. The problem was that the subjects took a lot of time in providing services, and students or guardians participating in the project refused to receive preventive dental services. As regards improvements, the insurance fee was the highest (48.1%), followed by the provision of regular services (38.8%), and system improvement and administrative support (35.7%). Conclusions: To activate a child-adolescent dental care service, it is thought that continuous efforts such as providing financial support by the government, education to increase participants' understanding, and social consensus for the participation of service providers and beneficiaries are required.

소아치과학이 목표로 하는 어린이와 청소년의 구강건강을 달성하기 위하여는 민간 치과의료기관에서 내원 환자를 대상으로 하는 진료만으로는 한계가 있으며 공공서비스(公共service)의 역할이 필요하다. 학교구강보건실이 설치된 초등학교는 전체의 7.2%이었고, 초등학교 중에서 불소용액양치사업을 수행한 비율은 57.5%, 급식 후 집단잇솔질을 한 비율은 46.9%이 었으며, 초등학생 중에서 구강보건교육을 받은 비율은 48.0%, 치아홈메우기를 받은 비율은 12.4%이었다(2006년). $0{\sim}6$세 영유아의 약 42%가 지난 1년간 구강검진, 불소도포, 치면세마, 치아홈메우기 중 하나 이상의 예방적 치과진료를 받았으며, 받은 장소는 교육시설이 약 18%, 보건소가 약 1%이었다(2005년). 불소농도가 조정된 수돗물을 마시는 인구 비율은 전국 평균이 5.7%이었다(2006년). 학교구강보건사업의 발전을 위해서 행정의 일원화, 보건교사에 대한 교육, 구강보건교사제도의 도입, 순회 학교치과의사와 학교치과병원을 통한 포괄적 진료서비스의 제공 등을 고려할 수 있을 것이다. 또한 아동.청소년 주치의제의 도입으로 민간기관을 통해 공공서비스를 강화하는 방안이 검토되고 있다.
