21세기를 눈앞에 두고도 아직까지 과학의 힘으로 그 근원을 알 수 없는 지병의 균주는 끊임없이 증폭되고 있음은 이미 주지의 사실이다. "판도라"의 상자속에는 인간을 폐망시킬려는 이러한 질균으로 꽉 차있는 것인지도 모른다. 특히 근간에는 폐수, 대기오염 등의 환경공해로 인한 치유될 수 없는 질병이 만연되고 있으며 어떤 경우에는 병의원(치과의원포함)에서 질병을 얻어오는 경우도 왕왕 발생한다. 환자나 환자를 치료하는 모든이들이 할 수 있는 한 최선을 다해 이러한 치명적인 상황을 최소한으로 유지하여 쾌적하고 깨끗한 질료실내외의 환경을 조성하고 건강한 삶을 위해 노력을 해야하겠다.
