This study was conducted to investigate the risk factors affecting dental caries in children by using the 2018 children's oral health survey data. The study was conducted on 20,235 children who were 12 years of age. The survey items examined general characteristics, dental dietary behavior, the oral condition, and the behavioral factors related to oral health. The results showed that gender, region, economic level, subjective oral health condition, dental dietary behavior, oral condition and oral health-related behavior were all risk factors. Those children with oral conditions particularly showed a higher risk of the dental caries symptoms of dental calculus, dental bleeding, tooth pain and white spot teeth. The oral health-related behaviors were found to be tooth brushing less than two times a day, the risk of not using a handle to hold dental floss and not using dental floss. Our results showed that countries or communities can diagnose and manage dental well-being early on for children with the highest sensitivity of dental health and they need to continue to establish a dental well-being management system for the oral health care of children. In addition, oral health education should be expanded, which can improve oral health care habits of children and adolescents. Further, an oral health policy system for improving community programs to prevent dental and community utilization is needed.

당뇨병에 걸리면 치주질환에 걸릴 위험이 크고, 일반인보다 낫기가 어렵다. 치주질환은 비용과 치료의 두려움으로 병원에 가길 꺼려한다. 그러나 방치하면 잇몸 뼈가 상하게 되고 치아가 빠져 수술로 이어지게 된다. 그러므로 당뇨병환자라면 치과에 정기적으로 내원하여 잇몸병은 조기에 발견하고 치료하는 것이 중요하다.

This study was to investigate their relevance between oral health behaviors and number of remaining teeth of the elderly welfare recipients through the fluoride and scaling of the business. Researcher collected 660 subjects over 60 elderly welfare recipients investigated self-administered survey and use denture and number of remaining teeth though oral examination. Increasingly age number of teeth remaining reduced, there is a difference on the number of remaining teeth according to gender, age, the use of oral hygiene products, self diagnosis oral condition, brushing after lunch and showed significant difference(p<0.05). The remaining number of teeth can be prevented by attention and efforts of subjects. Therefore, we investigated convergent effects of oral health behaviors on number of remaining teeth of the elderly, I hope that oral health care program continually provides expansion of preventive treatment and to maintain the provision of health care about vulnerable group.

본 연구는 한국인 노년층이 대표적으로 섭취하는 강도별 음식을 조사하고 각 음식별로 씹어 먹을 수 있는 음식들이 무엇인지를 조사하여 자신이 보유하고 있는 자연치아수와의 상관관계를 알아보아 자연치아의 건강도를 유지, 관리, 예방하는데 하나의 지표로 사용하고 더 나아가 국민구강건강향상에 이바지 하고자 실시되었다. 전국의 60세 남 녀 586명을 대상으로 치과의사와 치과위생사가 구강검사와 면접법으로 설문내용을 기록하는 방식으로 진행하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS WIN 14.0 프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 분석기법으로는 잔존치아수와 저작능력간의 관계를 상관계수와 회귀분석으로 분석 검증을 실시하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 저작능력과 구강상태와는 치석, 동요도, 충전점수, 우식경험점수, 발거치아수, 임플란트 수, 자연치아수와 나이, 고혈압, 당뇨병, 기타질환, 흡연이 유의한 것으로 나타났다(p<0.05). 2. 회귀분석 결과 나이가 높을수록 저작능력이 감소하며, 자연치아수가 많을수록 저작능력이 높은 것으로 나타났으며 회귀방정식은 저작능력=79.417-(연령$\times$0.281)+3.813$\times$치아수와 같았다(p<0.05). 3. 회귀분석결과 저작능력점수와 자연치아수와의 관계가 가장 높은 것으로 나타났고 회귀방정식은 저작능력=3.817$\times$자연치아+58.694와 같았다(p<0.05). 4. 자연치아로 식사를 하기 위해서는 한국 노인의 주식인 밥과 김치정도를 잘 씹어 먹으려면 잔존 자연치아수가 18개 정도는 있어야 아주 잘 씹어 먹을 수 있고, 잘 먹으려면 12개의 자연치아가 있어야 하며, 육류를 잘 먹기 위해서는 최소한 18개는 있어야 잘 먹을 수 있고, 25개가 있으면 아주 잘 씹어 먹을 수 있다는 연구결과가 나왔다.

The aim of this study was ti investigate the effects if socio-demographic factors, oral symptoms and oral health behaviors on dental caries. The multiple logistic regression was executed on oral health examination records and the information among all civil servants obtained by the National Health Insurance Corporation(NHC). After abjusting known risk factors, the most significant variable was income(OR=1.97). This cross-sectional study revealed various significant factors related to dental caries.

This study investigated 2,088 economically active workers aged 20 to 65 years selected from the sixth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey to evaluate the relationship between chronic diseases and oral health behaviors among economic workers and examine the risk factors for oral diseases. The results of the study were as follows. Dental caries were related to subjective oral health status, toothache experience, orthodontic treatment experience, chewing problems, speaking problems, oral examination, and dental clinic use. Periodontal disease was associated with oral health status, toothache experience, orthodontic experience, and chewing and speaking problems. The risk factors for chronic diseases and oral health behavior were as follows. Hypertension, 1.37 times; obesity, 1.48 times; diabetes, 1.5 times; low HDL-cholesterol, 1.31 times; hepatitis A antibody, 1.53 times higher. Health status was found to be 1.70 times higher in dental caries and 2.10 times higher in periodontal disease. The tooth experience was 1.30 times higher in dental caries and 1.35 times higher in periodontal disease. Problems chewing were 1.76 times for dental caries and 1.78 times for periodontal disease. The possibility of dental caries and periodontal disease was 1.44 times higher. Smokers were 1.61 times more likely to have dental caries and 1.63 times more likely to have periodontal disease. These results suggest that periodontal diseases increase the risk of chronic diseases and oral health behavior increases the risk of dental caries and periodontal disease. Although dental caries seem to have a lower risk of becoming a chronic disease if only oral health care is good, it is considered that both chronic disease and oral health care are important for periodontal disease.

This study aims to measure oral health knowledge and practice level among dental clinic patients, and examine their relationships with decayed, missing and filled teeth (DMF) index and the oral health-related quality of life (QOL). Empirical data have been collected from 311 patients through structured questionnaires and dental examinations conducted in Busan area. According to the analysis of causal relationship, oral health knowledge turned out to have a direct effect on oral health practices, which exerted both direct and indirect effects on DMF index and oral health-related QOL. While DMF index directly affected the oral health-related QOL, oral health knowledge proved to have only an indirect effect on DMF index and oral health-related QOL, mediated by oral health practices. Considering all these findings, effective oral health education and other intervention programs should focus on motivating people to participate in the active practices of desirable oral health behaviors, which will lead to the prevention of oral diseases and the subsequent improvement in the QOL.

"하루 세 번, 3분씩"닦아야 건강한 치아를 가질 수 있다. 어릴 적부터 무수히 훈련을 받아온 이야기다. 음식문화가 다양해지고 건강을 우선시하는 현대인들에게 치아 세정이 당연한 관심사임은 물론, 고대로부터의 치아 세정에 관한 기록들은 쉽게 찾아볼 수 있다. 우선 지금의 치약과 같은 역할을 하는 것들에 대한 기록은 고대 이집트의 의학서인 파피루스에서도 찾아볼 수 있는데, 기원전 고대인들은 식물성 수지 등을 씹거나 재와 태운 달걀 또는 미세한 돌가루 등을 꿀과 같이 반죽해 치아를 닦았고, 중세에는 동물의 뼈나 조개껍질 가루 등을 꿀과 반죽해 사용했다는 기록이 남아있다.
