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.

이 연구의 목적은 고등학교를 졸업한지 10년 이내의 성인을 대상으로 구강보건교육 경험과 인식을 조사하여 소아와 청소년의 구강보건교육을 제고할 방안을 찾기 위함이다. 412명의 성인에게 설문지를 배포 후 회수된 설문지 중 기준에 부합하는 388명을 선정하였다. 설문 내용은 학령기 구강보건교육 경험과 인식, 구강건강에 대한 인식, 구강건강 행동과 태도에 대한 항목을 포함하였다. 설문조사 결과, 효과적인 구강보건교육 시기는 초등학교로 인식되었다. 가장 선호하는 구강보건교육 방법은 치과의사의 구강검진 및 대면 설명이었고 구강건강 지식은 주로 웹 검색을 통해 습득하는 것으로 조사되었다. 불소와 홈메우기의 치아우식 예방 효과에 대한 인식은 다소 부족하였다. 이 연구를 통해 향후 소아와 청소년의 구강보건교육에 치과의사의 역할을 확대하고 웹 검색을 활용하는 것이 효율성 제고에 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.

Objectives: This study analyzed the relationship between BMI (body mass index), perceived health status, and oral health behaviors of schoolgirls. Methods: This study utilized data from the 13th (2017) Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-Based Survey. A total of 29,337 schoolgirls were analyzed. Statistical analysis was performed using PASW Statistics 21.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). Results: Compared to the obese group, the rate of being recognized as healthy was 1.882 times higher in the normal-weight group and 1.623 times in the underweight group. The rate of using supplementary oral hygiene devices was 1.383 times higher in the underweight group and 1.091 times in the normal-weight group than in the obese group. Compared to the obese group, the experience rate of the sealant was 1.407 times in the underweight group. Compared to the obese group, the scaling experience rate was 1.282 times higher for the underweight group and 1.205 times for the normal-weight group. Conclusions: These results suggest that individual health behaviors are interrelated. There is a need for an integrated approach in the planning and implementation of future health promotion strategies, and it would be useful to design a program that considers health characteristics such as BMI.

Objectives: This study was designed to examine the effects of oral health behaviors and use of dental clinics on periodontal diseases in women, the purpose of this study is to provide basic information to develop program for dental health promotion in young women. Methods: We conducted a survey targeting 486 women that agreed with the survey and were going to dental clinic from October 1, 2013 to October 18, 2013. We surveyed them by self-administered questionnaire and analyzed it by SPSS Win 19.0 program. Results: 1. For differences in periodontitis according to general characteristics, if th age is high, ratio of periodontitis is high. Married woman is higher than single one in ratio of periodontitis. Also the more number of birth, the higher ratio of periodontitis is.(p<.05) 2. For differences of periodontitis by dental care behavior, ratio of periodontitis of non-smokers is significantly low. For one that brush one's teeth broadside, the ratio of periodontitis is high.(p<.05) 3. For differences of periodontitis by use of dental clinic service, ratio of periodontitis of one that have more times visit to a dental clinic, more annual average cost for dental care, and regular dental check-ups is relatively low.(p<.05). 4. For determinant factors influencing on periodontitis, ratio of periodontitis of one that is old, have more stress, have a low level of education, and have preventive dental care is high. Ratio of periodontitis of one that have less toothbrushing and brush one's teeth after having lunch or a snack and before sleeping is significantly low. Conclusions: From this study, dental health behavior as the factor influencing on periodontitis of young women is statistically meaningful. Because this dental health behavior has a lot of potential to be improved by government and local community efforts such as education and social support, we think that systematic and various educational program development is needed to strengthen self dental care ability effectively with policy support.

The purposes of this study were 1) to investigate the oral health problem of the disabled according to the handicapped types, 2) to collect the empirical data for developing and establishing the oral health policies for the handicapped, and 3) to find out the major obstacles against the dental services and oral health promotion. The handicapped subjects were collected by designed cluster sampling and interviewed with structured questionnaire in order to measure the oral health knowledge and behaviors. The subjects were attending the special schools and private or public welfare institutions for crippled disorder, encephalopathy disorder, mental retardation, visual disturbance, hearing defect, and developmental disorder. Oral examination was conducted by 13 trained dentists. 1,476 of handicapped people were finally surveyed. The results were as follows; The experiences of visiting dental office during the last one year in 18~64 year-old disabled people were 48.86% in crippled disorder, 52.50% in mental retardation, 58.24% in visual disturbance, 39.29% in hearing defect, respectively. To improve this challenging situation, we should find out the obstacles against the dental service and oral hygiene maintenance by the types of handicap, and develop the oral health policies which could support and advocate the Korean disabled.

전국 대표성 있는 표본조사인 청소년건강행태온라인조사를 활용하여 청소년의 스트레스와 구강건강관련 행태의 관련성을 살펴본 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 스트레스를 '대단히 많이' 또는 '많이' 느끼는 학생은 전체의 41.9%이며, 80% 이상이 스트레스를 경험하였다. 둘째, 경제상태가 상위계층일수록 연간 구강진료 경험, 간식 후 칫솔질, 잠자기 전 칫솔질 실천 가능성이 유의하게 높았다. 또한 어머니의 교육수준, 가족풍요도 척도가 높을수록 과일, 채소반찬, 우유의 섭취빈도, 연간 구강진료 경험이 높았다. 셋째, 스트레스가 높은 청소년은 과일, 채소반찬, 우유섭취 실천 가능성이 유의하게 낮았고, 탄산음료, 패스트푸드, 과자섭취는 유의하게 증가하였다. 또한 간식 후 칫솔질, 잠자기 전 칫솔질 실천 가능성이 유의하게 낮았다. 청소년의 구강건강에 위험요인으로 작용하는 생활습관들을 개선하는 데 있어 스트레스와 같은 사회심리적인 부분도 고려되어야 할 것이다. 또한 과도한 스트레스는 청소년의 부정적인 식습관을 조장하게 되므로, 청소년들의 적절한 스트레스 관리를 도모하고 과일이나 야채 등 섬유소가 풍부한 식품, 치아의 경조직 석회화를 촉진시키는 우유 및 유제품을 권장하며, 점착도가 높은 우식성 식품섭취는 감소시키기 위한 노력이 필요하다. 더불어 간식섭취 후 칫솔질 실천율은 21%로 낮아 이에 대한 교육도 강화할 필요가 있다.

본 연구는 소득 불평등의 심화가 건강 불평등을 가속화시키는 중요한 경로가 되고 있기에 한국 성인의 경제적 수준에 따른 구강건강상태 및 행태의 현황을 확인하여 구강건강 불평등 완화를 위한 대책과 함께 구강건강증진의 효율적 방안을 모색하는데 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다. 국민건강영양조사 제6기 3차년도(2015) 원시자료를 이용하여 분석하였고, 전체 대상자 중에서 만 19세 이상의 성인 총 5855명을 연구대상으로 선정하였다. 연구결과 가구소득이 적을수록, 기초생활수급 경험이 있는 사람일수록 DMFT는 높게 나타났고, DMFT와 경제적 불평등 변수와의 상관성은 DMFT가 높을수록 가구소득이 적고, 교육수준이 낮고, 기초생활보장 수급자 경험이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 경제적 불평등은 객관적 구강건강과 구강건강행태 불평등으로 나타나는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 동에 거주하는 기초생활보장 수급자보다 읍, 면에 거주하는 기초생활보장 수급자의 객관적 구강건강상태가 좋았는데 그것은 정부의 구강보건사업이 도시 지역보다 농어촌 지역으로 편중되어 있기 때문으로 판단된다. 이에 취약계층의 구강보건사업을 지역별 구강보건사업 보다 더 나은 효율적인 방안을 모색하여야 할 것이며, 단순히 의료적 접근 등의 해소가 아닌 건강의 사회적 결정요인에 대한 포괄적인 중재정책과 공중보건사업을 통해 예방활동 강화가 필요할 것으로 판단되었다.
