There are frequent cases of retreatment due to lack of communication between dentists and dental technicians during general prosthetic treatment. The success of large-scale therapy begins with small treatments. This report reminds you of the importance of communication through a simple example. To reproduce better colors and shapes, the dentist must provide specific and accurate information and feedback to the dental technician, and the dental technician must have the skills to accurately analyze and express it. In this process, we need to create an environment where we can exchange mutual opinion and produce better prostheses.

Objectives: Although the number of clinics offering temporomandibular joint (TMJ) physical therapy has been increasing to help with its treatment, the scope of dental physiotherapy reflected in the dental hygienist curriculum is very limited. This study aims to survey the status of dental physiotherapy work and the need for educating dental hygienists. Methods: An online community platform was used to survey 140 dental hygienists working in clinical dental hospitals. The survey included questions about general characteristics, the experience of dental physiotherapy work, the importance of physiotherapy work performance, and the need for physical therapy education for dental hygienists. Results: Half of the study participants had prior experience working in dental physiotherapy. Out of 140 participants, 88.6% agreed with the opinion that 'physical therapy work is important or that it will become important'. Furthermore, 84.3% agreed that 'physical therapy education is necessary for dental hygienists'. Even dental hygienists without physical therapy experience (50.7%) believed that related education would be necessary because of the importance of physical therapy work in dentistry. Conclusions: This study suggests the need for education in dental physiotherapy to help dental hygienists effectively perform clinical tasks.

성장기에 있어서 치아우식병발생은 특히 국민학교아동에게서 크게 나타나며 손쉬운 대책으로 발전된 것이' 치과치료사(dental therapist)혹은 치과간호원(dental nurse)제도이다. 이 제도는 약 50년전 Newzealand에서 시작되어 국민학교아동에 대한 간단한 치료와 구강위생교육급예방에 대한 제도를 주임무로 삼고 각학교에 배치되었다. 최근 이 제도는 대양주각국에 도입되어 유사업무에 임하고 있다. 한국에는 각종보조원학교가 있으나 이 제도와는 업무분야가 다르고 국민학교아동에 대한 전담제도가 확립되어 있지 않기에 '뉴-사우스웨일즈주'에 있는 학교를 예로 들어 학교의 행선적구조, 인력, 교과내용 훈련방법, 실사회활동, 급 본인들의 직업적 만족도등을 조사연구하였음.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the essential services, importance, interval of examinations, and role of dental hygienists in children's family dentistry program. Methods: A total of 124 participants completed a self-administered questionnaire. The data were analyzed using independent t-test, and ANOVA, and Pearson correlation analysis. Results: All participants stated that oral examination and panoramic radiography are required; children should be educated about brushing, use of oral products, and regular check-ups; and preventive treatments such as molar sealants and prophylaxis should be offered. They stated that light-curing resins and glass ionomer fillings should be offered in treatment services. They stated that examination intervals should be shorter for education and prevention rather than treatment. Dental hygiene students were more likely than dentists and dental hygienists to say that the program was more important. There was a correlation between oral examinations and education and treatment, and between essential services and their importance. Conclusions: Services considered essential and important should be provided first, education and prevention should be provided more frequently than treatment, and their importance should be emphasized not only to dental hygiene students but also to dental hygienists and dentists who are the main providers of services.

이 연구는 미국 치과위생사의 역사를 역할변화의 관점에서 고찰한 것으로, '전문 조직', '교육 제도', '면허 제도', '역할과 업무범위', '의무와 윤리' 등 5개의 범주에 따라 미국치과위생사가 전문직이 되기 위해 어떤 과정을 거쳤는지 고찰하였다. 미국치과위생사는 그들의 사회적 조직화를 위해 미국치과위생사협회를 결성하였으며, 교육 연한은 2년 과정에서 석사 과정까지 증대되었다. 치과위생사 면허는 1952년에 미국 전 주에서 발급되었으며, 현재는 전문치과위생사자격증 등이 제안되고 있다. 업무범위는 구강보건교육과 치면세마를 시작으로 예방치과처치, 치주처치, 일부 수복치료, 마취 등까지 확대되었다. 이 연구는 전 세계 중 최초로 치과위생사 양성제도가 결성된 미국의 치과위생사가 전문직 역할을 수립해나가는 과정을 분석함으로써 각 국의 치과위생사 제도와 비교할 수 있는 기초자료를 제시한 데 의의가 있다고 사료된다.
