Background: This study aimed to investigate allergic rhinitis and the relationship between allergic diseases, such as asthma and allergic rhinitis, and dental caries and periodontal disease using the raw data from third year of the 6th Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Methods: A total of 3,729 subjects aged over 30 years who underwent examination for allergic diseases and an oral health checkup were selected. The data were analyzed using SPSS IBM SPSS ver. 25.0 (IBM Corp., USA). Composite sample cross correlation and composite sample logistic regression analyses were performed using the composite sample general linear model. Results: On examining the socioeconomic characteristics of the subjects suffering from allergic disease and the relationship between allergic disease and oral health, allergic rhinitis was more frequently found in younger subjects with a higher level of education. Periodontal disease and dental caries were more frequent among female, older age groups, lower income earners, and subjects with a lower level of education (p<0.05). On examining the relationship between the oral health characteristics of the subject and allergic diseases and oral health, allergic rhinitis was more common in subjects with a good oral health status perception than those who answered "bad" to the oral health status question. The community periodontal index of treatment needs (CPITN) score was higher in subjects who answered "poor" to the oral health status question, lower frequency of brushing, and higher in subjects using secondary oral hygiene products; the decayed, missing and filled teeth (DMFT) index was higher in subjects with a perception of poor oral health status (p<0.05). The DMFT index was high in the asthma group, and the CPITN score was high in the group who answered "no" to allergic rhinitis. Conclusion: There is a relationship between asthma and allergic rhinitis and the DFMT index and CPITN score. Corresponding oral programs for allergic patients need to be developed.

Objectives: This study was conducted to find out caries preventive effect on permanent teeth among children who brush teeth with fluoride-containing toothpaste by supervised weekly fluoride mouthrinsing program in elementary schools. Methods: The epidemiologic dental survey was performed on the elementary schoolchildren of supervised weekly fluoride mouthrinsing program (FMR) with 0.2 percent neutral sodium fluoride solution and control group in 2007. Caries preventive effect on permanent teeth by fluoride mouthrinsing program were calculated by DMFT index and DMFS index between FMR group and control group. Results: By DMFT index between FMR group and control group, caries rates on permanent teeth of the fourth-, fifth- and sixth-grade children participating in FMR program were 34.1%, 40.8% and 31.5%, respectively. By the DMFS index between FMR group and control group, caries preventive rates on permanent teeth of the fourth-, fifth- and sixth-grade children participating in FMR program were calculated 25.4%, 37.7% and 33.5%, respectively. Conclusions: We suggest that fluoride mouthrinsing program should be developed to all elementary schools to prevent dental caries.

Aim : This study was conducted to assess the oral health status of deaf and mute children attending special school. Materials and Methods : A cross-sectional descriptive survey was conducted among 137 deaf and mute children with ages ranging from 7 to 18 years. A total of 76 males (55.47%) with mean age of $14.2{\pm}4.5$ and 61 females (44.53%) with mean age of $13.8{\pm}4.2$ years and studying in a school for deaf and mute children in Warora were considered. Data were collected using a standard method recommended by WHO for the oral health survey in 1977. Oral health status was assessed using OHIS, Loe and Sinless, and CPI Index along with DMFT and DMFS Index. Gingival position was considered for measuring attachment loss. Statistical analysis was performed using the SPSS software package (version 17.0). Results : The mean DMFT was found to be $2.53{\pm}1.72$, and mean DMFS, $3.37{\pm}3.16$. The prevalence of dental caries was pegged at 35.32%, with mean OHIS score at $1.49{\pm}0.76$. Overall gingival index among deaf and mute children was $0.81{\pm}1.4$, whereas that for the upper arch and lower arch was $0.92{\pm}0.84$ and $1.19{\pm}0.95$, respectively. The mean score for the CPI Index among deaf and mute children was found to be $0.42{\pm}0.32$. Gingival clinical attachment loss was found to be $0.26{\pm}0.15mm$. Conclusion : These findings suggest that children with hearing disabilities can also have good oral hygiene comparable to normal individuals of the same age group. These results may be attributed to the fact that the study sample was taken from a single school of a private organization with a well-equipped dental setup.

치열이 발육 중에 있는 소아는 치은 및 치주 질환에 매우 흔하게 이환된다. 이 시기의 치은염은 대개 경미하며 가역적인 경우가 많으나, 만성적으로 진행하여 성인기의 치주질환으로 이행되는 경우도 발생한다. 소아의 치은 평가를 위한 방법으로 흔히 임상적인 치은염 평가 지수나 구강 위생 지수를 측정하게 된다. 치은염 측정 지수의 하나로써 치은 열구액은 치주조직과 치은 열구로부터 유래되는 염증성 삼출물로, 세균성 치태의 점진적인 축적에 대한 반응으로 증가한다고 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 소아의 치은 상태 평가를 위해 전북대학교 병원 소아치과에 내원한 3-14세(평균 $8.5{\pm}3.1$세)의 어린이 50명과 23-33세 (평균 $26.1{\pm}3.3$세)의 성인 20명을 대상으로 육안적 지수인 치은지수와 치태지수를 조사하였다. 또한 이와 함께 치은 열구액을 채취하여 그 부피를 Periotron 8000(Oraflow Inc., USA)을 이용하여 측정하였고, 소아와 성인의 수치를 비교 분석한 결과 다음의 결론을 얻게 되었다. 1. 어린이에서 유치열기와 영구치 맹출기, 맹출 완료기의 각 군 간에 치은 열구액 부피를 비교했을 때, 평균치는 영구치 맹출기에서 가장 높게 나타났으나 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다(p>0.1). 2. 어린이와 성인을 비교하였을 때 치은 열구액 부피는 어린이에서 유의성 있게 크게 나타났다(p<0.001). 3. 어린이와 성인 모두 임상적인 치은지수(GI)와 치태지수(PLI)는 치은 열구액의 부피와 유의성 있는 상관관계를 보였다(GI; r=0.394, p<0.001 PLI; r=0.642, p<0.001). 4. 치은 열구액을 채취한 치아의 교정 치료 유무는 치은 열구액의 부피와 유의성 있는 양의 상관관계를 보였다(p<0.001). 그러나 레진 치료 유무나 치아 우식의 유무는 관계가 없었다(p>0.05). 5. DMFT치는 유치열기에서 영구치열기보다 높게 나타났다(p<0.001). 또한 DMFT치와 치은 열구액 부피는 유의성 있는 상관관계를 보이지 않았다(p>0.1).

Objectives: This paper aimed to contribute to better oral disease prevention and practice of health behavior for immigrant women in multi-cultural families, to define missing and filled permanent teeth index of immigrant women, data from the 6th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was used. Methods: For the immigrant women to be subjects, they needed to be born overseas, had acquired Korean citizenship as a married immigrant women, and the estimate of the number of subjects was 133,093 women. For analyzing data, SPSS 21statistical program was used. We used covariance analysis (ANCOVA) andgeneral linear models for finding the relation with the missing and filled permanent teeth index. The significance level was 0.05. Results: DMFT-index of immigrant women was 7.33 points. $R^2$ was 0.416; and increased with age, and $R^2$ was 0.126 points higher (p<0.01). In household income, 'lower' was 5.933 points lower than 'upper' (p<0.05), and in toothbrushing after lunch, 'yes' was 3.598 points lower than 'no' (p<0.01). In preventive treatment, 'yes' was 4.301 points lower than 'no' (p<0.05). Conclusions: The result of this paper is as follows: for maintaining oral health of immigrant women, we think that the government needs to develop an oral health policy and a customized education system suited to immigrant women for preventive management of dental disease in immigrant women. In addition, basic data will be provided for public dental health programs based on the result of the study.

The purpose of this study was to examine the oral health status and oral health care of adults using dental clinics and the relationship between their oral health state and oral health care. The subjects in this study were 219 patients who visited dental clinics in Gyeonggi province between February and April 2008. A dental checkup and survey were implemented, and SPSS 12.0 program was utilized to analyze the collected data. The findings of the study were as follows: 1. The DT, MT and FT rates of the respondents who used oral hygiene supplies respectively stood at 30.7, 24.6 and 24.6 percent, which were all low. The gaps between them and the others were statistically significant. The DMFT index of the users of oral hygiene supplies was 12.3, which was high, but the difference between them and the others was not statistically significant. 2. The DT rate of those who got a dental checkup on a regular basis stood at 20.8 percent, which was low. The gap between them and the others was statistically significant. Both the MT and FT rates of the former numbered 28.8 percent, which was low, but the gap between them and the others was statistically insignificant. The DMFT index of the respondents who got a regular dental checkup was 12.8, which was high, and the gap between them and the others was statistically significant. 3. The DT and FT rates of respondents who had ever had their teeth scaled respectively stood at 24.6 and 27.1 percent, which were both low, and the differences between them and the others were statistically significant. The MT rate of the former was 27.1 percent, which was low, but the gap between them and the others was statistically insignificant. The DMFT index of those who had ever had their teeth scaled was 12.2, which was high, and the gap between them and the others was statistically significant. The above mentioned findings suggested that there was a very close relationship between oral health care and oral health status. Therefore people in general should be encouraged to pay more attention to their own oral health care, and they should be well informed about how to take care of the oral cavity to promote their oral health.
