This paper was trying to investigate the periodontal health recognition and self oral hygiene behaviors and figure out that relationship. The results having analyzed 592 questionnaires returned patient who had visited the dental clinic which is selected randomly were following. There were relationships between the periodontal health recognition and self oral hygiene behaviors. Self oral hygiene behaviors were significantly high when, women did than men did, education level, subjective oral health status, and periodontal health recognition about managements were higher and periodontal health recognitions about treatment were lower. It was the periodontal health recognition that was influential the most in the independent variables. Therefore, knowledge related to the periodontal health should be educated to the patients visiting the dental clinic, and the patients should receive helps to perform self oral hygiene behaviors by inducing the transition of attitude to periodontal health.

본 연구는 우리나라 청소년의 치주건강상태와 구강건강인식 및 행태간의 연관성을 파악하여 구강건강향상을 위한 방안을 제시하고자 하며, 청소년 치주질환 예방 프로그램의 기초자료를 제공하는데 목적을 두었다. 연구문제의 검증을 위해 2006년도 국민구강건강실태조사의 원시자료를 활용해이중 구강검진과 학생용 면접기록지를 동시에 수행한 만 12~18세의 청소년 총 5,192명을 대상으로 하였다. 분석결과, 청소년의 치주건강상태를 성별, 연령별로 보면, 남자가 여자에 비해, 또한 연령이 많아질수록 치주건강상태가 나쁜 것으로 나타났다(P<.0001). 성별과 연령을 보정한 후 치주건강상태와 구강건강 인식 및 행태와의 관련성을 보면 주관적 구강건강인식이 좋지 않은 청소년이 좋은 청소년에 비해 불건 강한 치주조직군에 속할 가능성이 1.7배 높았고[Odds Ratio(OR)=1.74; p<0.001], 구강건강행태 변수 중 점심식사 후 잇솔질을 하지 않는 청소년은 잇솔질을 하는 청소년에 비해 불건강한 치주조직군에 속할 가능성이 1.6배 높았다(OR=0.1.59; P<0.001). 한편 구강건강행태 변수 중 1일 간식횟수는 치주조직의 건강상태와 통계적으로 유의하였으나, OR 값이 1보다 낮았다[1일 간식횟수가 4회 이상(OR=0.61; P<0.001), 2~3회(OR=0.58;P<0.001), 1회(OR=0.71;P<0.001)]. 끝으로 청소년의 구강건강 행태 변화를 통해 구강건강을 향상시킬 수 있음은 물론 청소년의 치주질환예방 및 관리프로그램 계획시 올바른 구강건강행태를 가지도록 하는 것의 중요성을 암시하고 있다.

In order to determine dental clinic inpatients' awareness about their periodontal health, this study conducted a questionnaire survey on total 212 inpatients admitted in 2 dental clinics and 1 dental hospital located all in Seoul metropolitan area. Resulting data were analyzed using SPSS 14.0 statistic program. As a result, this study could come to the following conclusions: 1. It was found that overall awareness about health of periodontal tissues averaged 3.40 points; our respondents showed highest awareness on prevention of periodontal diseases(3.95 points), while showing the lowest awareness on maintenance of periodontal tissues(3.09 points). 2. For differences in the awareness on periodontal health depending on general characteristics, it was found that there were significant differences between respective groups in overall periodontal health awareness and its sub-domains depending on sex and occupation. 3. For possible correlations between respective sub-domains of awareness, it was found that preventive awareness had most significant correlations with causal awareness, while preventive awareness had no significant correlation with symptomatic awareness. 4. For differences in the extent of oral health practice and periodontal health awareness, it was found that the more frequency of daily toothbrushing plus scaling experiences led to more significant differences in all the sub-domains of awareness.

The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of the oral health behaviors and lifestyle of hypertension patients on their perceived periodontal diseases. The data of the 2013 community health survey were used, and the data of 55,632 patients who suffered from hypertension and who were at the ages of 19 and over was analyzed. The analying methods used in this study were chi-square test and multiple logistic regression analysis. Gender, age, marital status, education, economic activity, income level and subscription to private medical insurance were identified as the factors to affect the perceived periodontal disease of the hypertension patients, and lifestyle and oral health behaviors were found to have exerted a significant influence on perceived periodontal disease. As this study found that not only the socioeconomic characteristics of the hypertension patients but their oral health care and lifestyle were all correlated with perceived periodontal disease, how to promote the oral health of those who are susceptible to periodontal diseases should carefully be considered.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship of body-shape perception and periodontal diseases in female adolescents based on the sixth 3rd-year(2015) data of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The subjects in this study were 211 female teenagers who were at the western ages of 12 to 18. As a result of analyzing, it's found that the body-shape perception of the female teens were linked to age, sleep hours, BMI, weight control and toothbrushing frequency, and whether they had periodontal diseases or not was found to be under the influence of age, smoking, sleep hours, stress, BMI and toothbrushing frequency. When the relationship between their body-shape perception and peridontal diseases was analyzed by controlling the confounders, the adolescents who considered their own bodies to be obese suffered from 3.18-fold more periodontal diseases(OR=3.18, 95% CI: 1.21, 8.38) than the teenagers who considered their body shape to be average. In the future, oral health care should be provided in consideration of the mental health of female adolescents to prevent periodontal diseases.

잇몸병(치주질환)은 한국인이 가장 많이 앓는 질환 중 하나이다. 건강보험심사평가원의 진료비 통계지표(2009년 기준)에 따르면 치주질환진료가 감기 등의 호흡기 질환 다음으로 많다고 한다. 문제는 많은 사람들이 잇몸병에 시달리고 있지만 그 심각성을 크게 인식하지 못하고 있다는 점이다. 잇몸병이 합병증을 유발하는 질병의 뿌리인데도 말이다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship of the self-rated peridontal health status of dental patients and the type of their treatment(implant, orthodontic treatment and general treatment) to the quality of life(happiness index), to investigate influential factors for oral health, and ultimately to provide some information on the development of oral health care programs geared toward boosting the happiness index. The subjects in this study were the patients who visited dental hospitals and clinics in Busan and South Gyeongsang Province. As for relationship between the field of treatment and the happiness index, the patients who received orthodontic treatment scored higher in both each itemand all the five items, and the patients who received implant treatment scored lower. Regarding links between self-rated periodontal health status and the happiness index, the patients who had no oral symptoms scored higher in both each item and all the five items, and the respondents whose self-rated health status and self-rated oral health status were both very good scored higher in the happiness index. The preparation of oral health programs that aim to improve the self-rated oral health of patients who visit dental hospitals or clinics is required.
