Purpose. Most of halitosis is found by people than by themselves in their life. There are some people who are suffering from oral malodor psychasthenia although they do not have halitosis which may disturb social life by sociophobia. Methods. The subjects of this survey were the dental hygienic college students in Busan city and Gyeongnam province from December 1 to December 20, 2013, we use the 281 parts except for the 19 parts of a bad faith response of 300 parts. Results. As a response to the awareness of the halitosis of college students, "the smell became sometime" was highest in 63.3%, and tooth brushing of halitosis, In according to about awareness of halitosis brushing the number of cases showed a 73.4% increase when you answered "no" in case one day the number of brushing at least three times less than a minute halitosis awareness conducted brushing (p<0.05),in case of less than 1 minute brushing time, this was a statistically significant increase halitosis awareness (p<0.05). Conclusions. This study assessment the association between halitosis awareness and oral care habits was to provide students with the basis for education and counseling halitosis in clinical.

일부 대학생들의 스트레스 주요인을 파악하고 구강악습관의 관계를 알아보기 위해 충청남도 아산시에 위치한 S대학교에 재학 중인 남 녀 대학생 299명을 대상으로 스트레스 관련문항과 악습관 관련문항으로 나누어 설문지 조사를 진행하였다. 대학생들이 가지고 있는 스트레스 요인 별 항목을 융합 연구한 결과 스트레스 원인 중 건강 대인관계는 구강악습관 점수와 통계적으로 유의한 관련성이 나타났다. 이상의 연구를 통해 대학생의 스트레스로 인한 구강악습관 발생률이 높다는 것을 알 수 있었으며 대학생활 동안 발생되는 스트레스의 요인들을 완전히 배제할 수 없다는 점을 고려해볼 때 스트레스 자가 인식법, 조절법 및 악습관 개선에 관한 교육틀이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Objectives: The purpose of this article is to evaluate factors influencing prognosis of arthrocentesis in patients with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder. Materials and Methods: The subjects included 145 patients treated with arthrocentesis at the Dental Center of Ajou University Hospital from 2011 to 2013 for the purpose of recovering mouth opening limitation (MOL) and pain relief. Prognosis of arthrocentesis was evaluated 1 month after the operation. Improvement on MOL was defined as an increase from below 30 mm (MOL ${\leq}30mm$) to above 40 mm (MOL ${\geq}40mm$), and pain relief was defined as when a group with TMJ pain with a visual analog scale (VAS) score of 4 or more (VAS ${\geq}4$) decreased to a score of 3 or more. The success of arthrocentesis was determined when either mouth opening improved or pain relief was fulfilled. To determine the factors influencing the success of arthrocentesis, the patients were classified by age, gender, diagnosis group (the anterior disc displacement without reduction group, the anterior disc displacement with reduction group, or other TMJ disorders group), time of onset and oral habits (clenching, bruxism) to investigate the correlations between these factors and prognosis. Results: One hundred twenty out of 145 patients who underwent arthrocentesis (83.4%) were found to be successful. Among the influencing factors mentioned above, age, diagnosis and time of onset had no statistically significant correlation with the success of arthrocentesis. However, a group of patients in their fifties showed a lower success rate (ANOVA P=0.053) and the success rate of the group with oral habits was 71% (Pearson's chi-square test P=0.035). Conclusion: From this study, we find that factors influencing the success of arthrocentesis include age and oral habits. We also conclude that arthrocentesis is effective in treating mouth opening symptoms and for pain relief.

Objectives : The purpose of the study is to investigate the relationship between variables associated with oral health status in psychiatric patients and to provide basic information on oral health education program development for the psychiatric patients. Methods : Subjects were 151 psychiatric patients who filled out the structured questionnaire. The data were analyzed for independent t-test, one-way ANOVA and hierarchical multiple regression by using SPSS Win Program 18.0 version. Results : Higher DMFT index was shown in the older age(p<0.001) and low perceived oral health group(p<0.001). Higher DMFT index included no tooth brushing after breakfast(p=0.045), wrong tooth brushing method(p<0.001). Chewing discomfort(p=0.027) and denture(p=0.027) were closely related to higher DMFT index. Bread(p=0.033) and snack(p<0.001) increased DMFT index. Factors affecting oral health status were age, denture, snack and bread. The explanation power of the final model was 29.4%. Conclusions : Dietary control for the psychiatric patients is very important to prevent dental caries. Tooth brushing and use of oral hygiene devices can improve good oral health care. Furthermore, this result can improve the oral health care for the disabled people.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine factors influencing the duration of occlusal appliance (OA) treatment for patients with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) internal derangement. Methods: Ninety patients were included for this study, who satisfied the following including criteria: (i) those who were diagnosed as disc displacement of TMJ by taking magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and (ii) those who were finished OA treatment. The subjects were classified into three groups according to the period of OA treatment: (i) early response group (<6 months), (ii) moderate response group (6 months-1 year), and (iii) delayed response group (>1 year). Demographic data, data from chief complaints and past history of temporomandibular disorder, data from clinical examination and diagnostic imaging including panoramic view and TMJ MRI were compared among groups. One-way ANOVA and chi-square analysis were used to test statistical significance. Results: There were no significant differences in demographic data, data from chief complaints and TMJ imaging. However, only the prevalence of oral parafunctional habits including bruxism, clenching, and unilateral chewing showed significant differences among groups. Conclusions: Oral parafunctional habits could be factors to influence the duration of OA treatment in the patients with TMJ internal derangement.

Objectives: The purpose of the study is to investigate the effects of life habits of some elders on subjective symptoms of periodontal disease. Methods: The subjects of the study were 287 elderly people in Jeonju, Jeollabuk-do by convenience sampling method. A questionnaire was completed by one to one interview method from January 17 to September 10, 2014. The questionnaire consisted of demographical characteristics and subjective symptoms of periodontal diseases by healthy life habits, dietary life habits, and oral healthy life habits. Data were analyzed by SPSS 18.0. Results: Smokers tended to have higher subjective symptoms of periodontal diseases than the non-smokers because smokers ingested more alcohol than the nonsmokers. The smokers tended to consume less meat, fish, beans and vegetables. The smokers did not brush their teeth frequently. They did not visit the dental clinics frequently for the scaling services. Conclusions: The development of oral health improvement program is very important and necessary for the elderly people and the program will enhance the health-related quality of life in the elderly.

Objectives: Headache is the most common complaint of patients suffering from temporomandibular joint disorders (TMDs). Thus, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) examinations maybe necessary in patients with headache. Considering the high prevalence of bruxism and TMDs in patients with headache the effects of conservative TMD treatment on headache should be assessed. Materials and Methods: Patients were questioned about headaches in the past three months. Those responding affirmatively to this question were examined for TMD and bruxism. After the examinations, 219 patients remained in the study and received self-management instructions. Patients were requested to modify oral habits except when eating or sleeping. The degree of pain (visual analogue scale), headache disability index (HDI), frequency of headaches (FH) per month and TMD intensity were evaluated. Results: The median levels of pain, HDI, FH, and TMD intensity were 8, 44, 8, and 7, respectively, before modifying oral habits and decreased to 4, 24, 2, and 3, respectively, after intervention. These decreases were statistically significant. Conclusion: Having patients maintain free space between the teeth and relax muscles can be an efficient method to treat headache and TMD, especially when repeated frequently.

본 연구는 비건의 건강 트렌드 속에 구강건강 영역을 포함시키기 위한 연구 개발의 필요성을 알리고자 20대 이상 비건 식습관 실천자 109명을 대상으로 조사하였다. SPSS을 이용하여 빈도분석, 카이제곱 검정, 단순선형회귀분석을 실시하였다. 완전 채식인 비건 집단은 주관적인 치아우식증 위험도가 낮게 나타났으나, 주관적인 구강건강에 대한 인식은 부정적으로 나타났다. 이는 비건 식습관이 구강건강의 면에서 조금 더 유익할 것이라고 믿으나 실제 구강건강도에서는 취약하다고 인지하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 뉴노멀 시대에서 비건이라는 새로운 식생활 소비 트렌드를 반영한 식습관 개선 방향 및 구강-영양 프로그램 개발의 필요성을 제시하고자 한다.
