최근 들어 알레르기 질환이 급증하고 있다. 국내 알레르기 환자 수는 6백만 명 이상이며 서구화된 생활환경, 공해, 각종 화학물질 사용의 증가로 인해 환자는 계속 증가 추세이다. 현재 추정되는 환자수 만도 전 인구의 15~20%선, 우리 나라 성인 중 약 10%, 어린이는 약 20%에서 나타나고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 대표적인 알레르기 질환은 꽃가루에 의한 화분증과 집먼지 진드기, 동물의 털 등이 주원인인 알레르기성 비염.결막염.천식.피부염 등이 있다. 그러나 알레르기 질환은 주위에서 흔히 접하면서도 일반인들에게 막연히 알려져 있고, 단지 완치가 힘들어 난치병 정도로만 인식되어 있다. 알레르기 질환 보통 대부분의 사람에게 있어서는 아무런 문제도 일으키지 않는 물질이 어떤 사람에게만 두드러기, 비염, 천식 등 이상과민반응을 일으키는 것을 말한다. 알레르기도 우리 몸 속에서 일어나는 면역반응의 한 종류지만 몸에 유해한 반응을 말하며 요즘 들어서는 과민성이란 의미로 사용된다.

There have recently been an increasing number of reports claiming that the periodontal disease, the most typical oral disease, is closely associated with various systemic diseases such as cardiovascular disease. Therefore, it is imperative to explore the methods that can ensure effective and cost-effective monitoring of periodontal disease in specific population groups, as well as individuals in the electronic medical record environment. However, traditional periodontal examination methods, such as periodontal probe, are considerably demanding and time-consuming for dental specialists, and furthermore, cause the risk of bacteremia as they are invasive procedures. Thus, the objective of this study was to validate the capability of new method for screening the periodontal disease using the self-reported questionnaire for periodontitis which is the non-invasive procedure to replace radiography.
