The purpose of this study was to provide basic data for healthy and effective dental management by providing the knowledge and information on periodontal health promotion as well as high dental health interests, by doing a comparative analysis of the effect of dental health knowledge and oral hygiene management skills of people in their 20s on periodontal health status assessment, to find periodontal disease early and prevent it targeting 130 adults in their 20s who visited dental hygienic lab for comprehensive dental hygiene care and treatment from September 25 to October 30. The data collected used SPSS 18.0. To present the technical characteristics of the data, frequency was used and chi-squared test through cross-analysis was conducted to investigate dental health knowledge and the relevance between the variables of oral hygiene management skills of general characteristics. To examine periodontal health status assessment, t-test and One-way ANOVA and Turkey post-hoc tests were carried out at the 5% significance level. Regression analysis was performed to investigate the impact of dental health knowledge and oral hygiene management skills on dental health status assessment. As a result of this study, as dental health knowledge on tooth brushing of people in their 20s increased, plaque index reduced, as dental health knowledge on periodontal disease increased, plaque index reduced. Dental health status assessment according to a total number of times tooth brushing, tooth brushing methods, whether to use dental hygiene devices, smoking status, drinking frequency per week, whether to have oral health education was statistically significant. To improve the level of dental health knowledge and oral hygiene management skills, oral health education should be strengthened as well as the publicity through the media to have the information on oral health and learn it.

To investigate the necessity of periodontal treatments, and the association of the health lifestyle with periodontal treatments, the data of 11,488 adults targeted in the 5th (2010, 2012) National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were used in this study. Chi-squared test was conducted to compare the subjects' general features with the health lifestyle of the patients who needed periodontal treatments. Logistic regression analyses were conducted to confirm the variables that could affect the necessity of periodontal treatments. As a result of verifying the necessity of periodontal treatments according to the general features and health lifestyle, the necessity decreased with the higher income level and education level, and in the cases of nonsmokers, frequent toothbrushing, and using oral hygiene products. When the subjects who did not had oral examinations, their necessity for periodontal treatments significantly increased (p<0.01). The variables that affected the necessity of periodontal treatments included residence, gender, education level, obesity, and oral examinations (p<0.01). Therefore, health lifestyle was thought an important variable that had affected the oral health status. Professional dental hygienists must provide people with action programs of health lifestyle to promote the national oral health status.

The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the relationship between periodontal health condition and the results of a new method such as Cariview which could evaluate the acidity of dental biofilms. Fifty four subjects more than 20 years old were selected for the candidates of this study. The periodontal health conditions of the candidates were divided into 4 groups according to the assessment of X-ray and Quantitative Light-induced Fluorescence-Digital (QLF-D; Inspektor Research Systems BV) images; gingivitis, slight periodontitis, moderate periodontitis, severe periodontitis. The biofilm acidogenicity of each subject was examined using Cariview (All in ONE BIO) according to manufacturer's instruction, and the Cariview score was calculated. The mean differences of Cariview score between 4 groups of periodontal health condition were examined by ANCOVA test with the covariance of decayed, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT) index. As a result, the mean Cariview score was different, however it was not significantly different from the 4 groups (p=0.12). The mean score was the lowest in the gingivitis group ($40.54{\pm}11.01$), and the highest in slight periodontitis group ($57.26{\pm}20.51$). In conclusion, the significant mean differences were not confirmed in Cariview score according to the periodontal health condition.

치주질환의 병원균은 세포벽의 항원에 의하여 조직내 존재하는 mononuclear phagocytes가 활성화되어 cytokine들이 생성됨 으로써 치주 결체조직의 파괴를 진행시킨다. 이런 관련된 cytokine들은 순차적으로 상주하는 치은세포 및 대식세포가 Matrix metalloproteinase 합성을 하도록 유도하여 조직파괴를 시작한다. 이들 Matrix metalloproteinase중 MMP-2, MMP-9 (Gelatinase A,B)는 type IV collagen 및 변성된 interstitial collagen을 파괴하며 치주환자의 치은 열구액, 치은조직, 타액 네에서 높게 보고 되어왔다. 당뇨병은 치주질환의 위험요소중 하나로 달뇨 환자에서는 치주질환의 유병율이 일반인에 비해 높고 치주질환의 중증도도 더 심하여 진행도 빠르다고 알려져 있다. 그 병리 기전 중 하나로는 당뇨 환자에서는 치은 열구액 내 중성구 유래의 Matrix metalloproteinase의 활성 증가 및$TNF-{\alpha}$ 의 활성 증가가 추정되고 있다. 본 실험에서는 제2형 당뇨병 환자와 비당뇨 환자들에서 만성 치주염 부위의 치은 및 건강한 치은에서 염증매개체 중 하나인 MMP-2, MMP-9 및 $TNF-{\alpha}$ 의 발현에 대해 상호 비교 분석함으로서 염증, 혈당이 미치는 영향을 밝히고 제 2형 당뇨병 환자에서 심한 치주조직 파괴의 기전을 연구하고자 하였다. 경북대학교병원 치주과 내원환자 중 제2형 당뇨병 환자와 비당뇨 환자들 및 치주질환이 없는 건강인 대조군을 대상으로 여러 가지 환자요소, 임상 치주상태를 기록하고, 전신적으로 건강한 환자의 건강한 부위(n=8,Group 1), 전신적으로 건강한 환자으 만성 치주염 부위(n=8, Group 2), 제2형 당뇨병 환자의 만성 치주염 부위 (n=8,Group 3)에서 각각 변연치은을 채득하고 액화질소에 급속 동결하였다. Western blotting을 이용하여 각 조직 내 MMP-2, MMP-9 및 $TNF-{\alpha}$ 의 발현을 관찰, densitometer를 이용하여 상대적 발현을 정량, 각 조직의${\beta}-actin$을 이용하여 표준화하여 실험군과 대조군들의 평균치를 비교하였다. 비당뇨 환자들의 만성 치주염 부위 및 제2형 당뇨병 환자의 만성 치주염 부위에서 모두 건강 대조군에 비해 MMP-2와 MMP-9 의 발현이 증가되었다. 또한 MMP-2와 MMP-9는 2형 당뇨 환자의 만성 치주염 부위가 비당뇨 환자의 만성 치주염 부위보다 증가된 발현양상을 보였으며, $TNF-{\alpha}$ 발현 비교시 각 군간 유의성 있는 변화는 없었으나 2형 당뇨환자군에서 MMP-2 및 MMP-9의 증가와 함께 다소 증가 양상을 보였다. 결론적으로 본 실험에서 MMP-2 및 MMP-9의 증가가 만성 치주염 및 2형 당뇨 환자에서의 만성치주염에서 비당뇨환자 보다 MMP-2, MMP-9의 증가양상을 보여 주었으며 $TNF-{\alpha}$ 가 2형 당뇨환자의 만성치주염 진행과정에 기여인자로써 역할을 하는 것으로 생각된다.

This study was attempted in order to grasp the influence of smoking upon periodontal disease by analyzing relationship between the smoking realities and the periodontal disease risk in adults aged over 19 in our country. In the findings, the mean in CPI of the whole subjects was 1.92. Among 6989 whole subjects, the group whose CPI is 0-2 included 4707 people(67.3%). The group whose CPI is 3-4 included 2282 people(32.7%). As for the group whose CPI is more than 3 when confounder wasn't corrected, the risk on incidence of periodontal disease in the group with smoking in the past increased by 1.78 times(95% CI:1.56-2.02), compared to the group with no smoking. In the group with the current smoking, it increased by 1.75 times(95% CI:1.55-1.82). Even with correcting gender, age, educational level, and diabetes appearance, the risk on incidence of periodontal disease was higher by 1.28 times(95% CI:1.08-1.53) in the group with smoking in the past and by 1.82 times(95% CI:1.54-2.16) in the group with the current smoking than the group without smoking at all. Accordingly, smoking was indicated to be related to periodontal disease. Thus, the positive publicity needs to allow patients themselves to establish firm consciousness. In addition, dental hygienists need to perform systematic non-smoking educational guidance within doctor's office. Thus, it is thought to necessarily contribute to improving periodontal health.

This study selected 2,134 fertile women aged 20 to 44 years as the final study subjects using the 6th source data of the National Health and Nutrition Survey. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between female characteristics, chronic diseases and oral health behavior, and the effects of each factor on periodontal diseases. There were statistically significant differences in age(p<0.001), education level(p<0.001), income(p<0.05), marital status(p<0.001), smokes(p<0.05) and pregnancy(p<0.001). Chronic disease factors showed statistically significant differences in hypertension(p<0.001), obesity(p<0.001), diabetes(p<0.001), hypercholesterolemia(p<0.05), hypocholesterolemia(p<0.001) and hypertriglyceridemia(p<0.001). Oral health behaviors were statistically significant in terms of toothache(p<0.05), orthodontic treatment(p<0.05) and chew discomfort(p<0.05). As a result of examining the risk factors affecting periodontal disease, the risk of chronic disease was 1.576 times higher in the obese group, and 2.569 times higher in the diabetic group than in the normal group. The subjective oral health status was 1.372 times higher for normal women and 1.614 times higher for bad women than for good ones. As a result, diabetes has shown the greatest risk among chronic diseases in women, and diabetes and obesity are highly relevant and therefore are considered important variables for the risk factors of dementia. In this regard, it is necessary to examine the risks of chronic and periodical diseases, expand oral health education programs for women's dental disease, and prepare oral health policies.

This study was to figure out the influence of oral health behavior and periodontal status on their OHIP-14. Explained to 255 people who visited the scaling center of Dental Hygienics of a college in Gyeongbuk from March 7th to June 13th 2014 and it was agreed to perform. Result of dental plaque and calculus rate of those with no TBI were high; the less frequent do they teeth brushing the higher were their rate of dental plaque, bleeding and calculus, while their OHIP-14 was low. The rate of calculus of whom with no education on dental floss use and who do not use dental flosswas high. The more powerful for those with higher rate of dental plaque; while the lower was the rate of calculus the higher was OHIP-14. Therefore, the more do they brush their teeth and the lower are the rate of their calculus, the more positively has it been figured out to influence on the quality of their life of oral health. Consequently, public health program should be developed to educate them on the necessity of scaing on a regular basis and the cause calculus of occurrence, as well as a media through which they can easily participate in the program.
