The purpose of this study was to analyze the accessibility to dental facilities and the differences in chief complaints of new patients who visited Pusan National University Dental Hospital. We collected information from electronic medical records for 1,820 new patients. The accessibility was analyzed by measuring the distance from the patient's house to the dental facilities. The distance was categorized into 10 km sections, and the presence or absence of a local pediatric dental clinic within 10 km of the patient's house was also categorized. As the distance between the house and Pusan National University Dental Hospital increased, the proportion of patients who visited for dental caries decreased, and orthodontic treatment increased. Dental caries accounts for 27.9% of less than 10 km and 20.5% over 30 km. Orthodontic treatment accounts for 25.4% within 10 km and 27.3% more than 30 km away. The presence or absence of a local pediatric dental clinic within 10 km did not significantly affect the distribution of chief complaints. This study can be used as basic research data to establish effective treatment measures that can improve the physical and geographical accessibility of patients visiting pediatric dentistry.

Introduction The aim of this study, personal trait and their dental care based on experience level of dental fear is to analyze the differences. Catastrophizing is an irrational belief that something is far worse than it actually is. Because it makes it possible to analyze patients' anxious thoughts and tendencies. Methods The Dental Fear Survey(DFS) and Anxious Thoughts and Tendencies(AT&T) were used as measuring tools, and the independent sample t-test and ANOVA were performed on the basis of the mean value of the summated scale scores and the standard deviation. On the factors to dental anxiety, the multiple regression analysis was performed. Results Demographically, the total DFS score was higher in women($25.73{\pm}8.27$) than in men. Also, AT&T was higher in women($31.01{\pm}7.05$) (p<0.05). Dental fear was intense in the group of patients who visited dental clinics only problems($25.29{\pm}8.57$) than in those regular visited($22.29{\pm}7.78$). In relation to dental experiences, the DFS score was significantly higher in children. In many cases, patients experienced therapeutic pains in children($26.40{\pm}9.54$) (p=0.004). Also in many patients, dental anxiety began to occur in adolescence(44.3%). The multiple regression analysis result, it was found that dental treatment pain and their AT&T wielded great influence upon dental fear.

치과임상에 있어서 대다수의 치과의사들이 가장 어려움을 느끼는 분야들 중의 하나가 Management Problem을 가진 어린이를 치료하는 일일 것이며, 그 중에서도 더욱 많은 지식과 노력을 가지고 치료에 임해야 할 분야가 바로 장애자에 대한 치과진료이다. 근년에 들어 사회복지를 포함한 각 분야의 발전과 더불어, 장애자에 대한 관심이 증가되고, 그들에 대한 사회적 책임이 강조 되고 있는 바, 이러한 사회적 인식의 변화를 떠나서라도, 우리 의료인들이 이들에 대한 최선의 치료를 위한 관심과 능력을 갖는 것은 지극히 당연한 일일 것이다. 이 글에서는 우리 치과의사가 장애자를 맞아 진료를 시행하는 데에 있어서 알아야 할, 몇 가지 지식과 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 1. 정의 및 분류 2. 치과진료에 흔히 문제가 되는 질환 3. 장애아동의 보호자에 대한 배려 4. 장애아동을 위한 Behaviour Management 5. 장애자들을 위한 예방적 측면 6. 장애자 치과진료의 실제 7. 결론

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.

Black staining of the teeth in children and adolescents does not cause pain or serious illness, but it can be socially debilitating for esthetic reasons. Black staining is easily removed through periodic professional mechanical tooth cleaning and ultrasonic scaling, but it can easily recur within few months. Using essential oil-containing mouth rinses diluted at 50% twice per day could prevent the black staining from returning after it is removed, reducing the need for mechanical treatments and improving esthetics.

연구배경: 장애인의 치과치료는 일반인의 치과치료와는 달리 많은 문제점들을 가지고 있다. 이러한 장애인 환자의 치과치료를 위하여 서울대학교 치과병원에서는 치과마취과를 중심으로 임상 각과가 협진하여 외래마취 기반 하에 1999년부터 장애인 진료실을 운영하고 있다. 이번 연구에서는 서울대학교 치과병원 장애인 진료실의 치료방법을 소개하고 그 동안 치료받은 장애인 환자들의 자료를 바탕으로 마취과적인 특징을 분석하였다. 방법: 2001년 1월부터 2002년 5월까지 치료받은 총 54명의 장애인 환자들의 치료기록지와 마취, 그리고 회복실 기록지를 검토하였다. 환자의 성별, 나이, 전신질환, 수술 전 시행된 검사, 치료에 참여한 협진과, 마취 유도제와 유지제, 총 마취시간과 회복실 체류시간, 그리고 회복실에서 관찰된 합병증을 조사하였다. 결과: 총 54명의 환자들을 대상으로 58건 치과치료가 시행되었다. 한 건의 의식진정 법을 제외하고는 모두 전신마취 하에서 치과치료가 시행되었다. 마취유도제는 thiopental sodium, 근이완제는 vecuronium과 succinylcholine가 가장 많이 사용되었으며 마취 유지를 위해서는 enflurane과 isoflurane의 흡입마취제를 이용하거나 TCI를 이용한 propofol 지속정주를 이용하였다. 총 마취지속시간은 $160.2{\pm}55.5$분이었으며 회복실에서의 체류시간은 $132.8{\pm}50.1$분, 그리고 완전한 회복을 확인하기 위해 병동에 단기 입원시킨 소아환자에서는 $58.7{\pm}16.8$분이었다. 회복실에서 심각한 합병증은 발생하지 않았다. 지속적인 감시를 위하여 4명의 환자가 입원을 권유받았으나 특별한 합병증 없이 다음 날 퇴원하였다. 결론: 서울대학교 치과병원 장애인 진료실은 외래마취에 대한 기존의 연구들보다 긴 마취시간과 회복실 체류시간을 보였다. 그러나 별다른 합병증 없이 일회 방문으로 장애인 환자들에게 필요한 치과치료를 모두 제공할 수 있었다.
