Purpose: This study was conducted to provide basic data for a health promotion program by analyzing the effects of high school students' mental health-related factors on oral symptom experiences. Methods: This study included 24,833 high school students who participated in the screening and health survey in the "17th (2021) Adolescent Health Behavior Survey."

Results: The result of the analysis on the effect of mental health revealed that oral symptom experience was low in students without depression and suicidal thoughts. Oral symptom experience was high in students with stress perception. Additionally, the experience of oral symptoms was low when there was sufficient subjective sleep. Conclusion: Therefore, it is necessary to develop a customized oral health education program for early detection of oral symptoms and oral health promotion in high school students.

본 연구는 대전 동구 보육원생 대상 계속구강건강관리사업의 효과를 평가하고자 대전 동구 보육원생 109명을 대상으로 하여 2012년 7~8월에 구강검사와 COHIP를 비롯한 설문조사를 실시하였다. 2010년 국민구강건강실태조사 대전시 표본과 대전 동구에 거주하고 보건소 계속구강건강 관리사업을 받지 않은 아동의 자료를 검정값으로 이용하여 일표본 검정을 하였으며, 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 계속구강건강관리사업을 받은 보육원 9~12세 아동과 13~18세 청소년은 우식경험영구치수에 있어서 대전시 12세, 15세 표본과 각각 비교하여 차이가 없으나, 13~18세 청소년은 대전시 15세 표본과 비교하여 우식치아수와 우식치면수가 유의하게 많았다(p<0.001). 2. 계속구강건강관리사업을 받은 보육원 9~12세 아동은 보건소 계속구강건강관리사업을 받지 않은 아동과 비교하여 치면세균막지수는 유의하게 적어서(p<0.001), 잇솔질 방법을 올바르게 수행하고 있는 것으로 판단되었다. 3. 계속구강건강관리사업을 받은 보육원 13~18세 청소년은 대전시 15세 표본과 비교하여 유의하게 적은 잇솔질 횟수, 많은 치은출혈삼분악수를 보여(p<0.001), 연령이 증가하면서 자가구강건강관리가 부족한 것으로 판단되었다. 4. 계속구강건강관리사업을 받은 보육원 9~12세 아동은 보건소 계속구강건강관리사업을 받지 않은 아동과 비교하여 아동 구강건강관련 삶의 질(COHIP) 총점과 자기이미지와 학교환경의 항목에서 부정적이었다(p<0.05). 따라서, 보육원생의 구강건강증진을 위해서는 현재 발생되어 있는 우식치면수의 감소가 필요하므로 구강병예방사업과 더불어 구강병치료사업이 추가되어야 한다. 연령이 증가할수록 구강건강이 악화되는 양상을 나타내므로 청소년은 아동과 분리하여 청소년에 맞는 구강보건교육, 보육원내의 구강보건행동에 대한 지속적인 모니터링과 심리적 지지가 필요하다.

Objectives: This study aimed to confirm the relationship between toothbrushing practice after lunch and typical oral health behaviors in children and adolescents according to the subject and type of social support. Methods: The study used data from the 2010 Korean Survey on the Health of Youth and Children and selected 8,704 elementary, middle, and high school students as final targets. Multiple logistic regression was conducted to confirm the link between social support and toothbrushing after lunch. Results: The results showed that in elementary and vocational high school students, statistical significance of all social support variables disappeared after controlling for both demographic and social factors and oral symptom experience. However, in the middle school students, the emotional support of the neighbors and the emotional support of the teachers showed statistically significant effect on brushing daily after lunch (p<0.05). In general high school students, there was a significant association between family emotional support and toothbrushing after lunch (p<0.01). Conclusions: The oral health promotion program for children and adolescents needs to be integrated and coordinated with the overall health promotion program. In particular, it is believed that the school-based program can strengthen the practice of health behaviors by inducing behavioral changes based on the formation of healthy relationships and trust of colleagues and teachers.

Health education aims at behavior change rather than just delivering health knowledge to people. In Korea health education activities in public sector began in 1960 and they were included in the primary prevention program in communities. This article reviewed current health education programs in healthy living practice programs provided by local public health centers in Korea and drew implications for the future role of health education in community setting. Health education has been a core function of the National Health Promotion programs in the nation since the enactment of the National Health Promotion Law in 1995. The National Health Promotion programs are funded by the National Health Promotion Fund which are drawn from tobacco tax. The National Health Promotion programs include healthy living practice programs (smoking prevention and cessation programs, moderate alcohol use programs, physical activity promotion programs, and nutrition programs), chronic disease prevention programs, oral health programs and public hygiene programs. Methods of the National Health Promotion programs include health education, health counseling, health class, health information management, survey and research. Smoking prevention and cessation programs include smoking cessation clinic, smoking cessation education, non-smoking environment program, and non-smoking campaign. Moderate alcohol use programs include alcohol use education, moderate alcohol use campaign, alcohol use counseling, and alcohol free environment programs. Physical activity promotion programs include obesity control, targeted exercise program, and exercise civic group programs. Nutrition programs include nutrition management, obesity management, nutrition education, breakfast eating program, and nutrition counseling and treatment programs. The health education programs in community are not efficient today because there are many overlapping contents and short term goals. Community health education programs needs to be more comprehensive. Workforce development is another big issue at the moment because the National credential program will begin in 2009. Variety of community health education programs should be developed and funded by the national health promotion fund.
