본 연구는 치위생학과와 보건계열학과, 비보건계열학과 여학생들의 구강보건인식, 지식, 행태 등에 관하여 비교분석하여 대학생들의 구강건강증진과 구강 보건교육의 기초자료를 제공하고자 광주광역시에 소재한 H대학에 재학 중인 591명을 대상으로 개별자기 기입식 설문조사를 실시하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 구강건강에 대한 관심도, 구강건강에 대한 중요성 인식, 자신의 구강건강상태에 대한 인식 모두 치위생학과 학생이 가장 높게 나타났고, 다음으로 비보건계열, 보건계열 순으로 나타났다. 전공별 구강보건지식 수준은 치위생학과 학생(9.73)이 가장 높게 나타났고, 다음으로 보건계열(9.14), 비보건계열(9.05) 순으로 나타났다. 전공별 구강보건행태에서는 하루에 칫솔질 3회 이상하는 학생과 구강관리용품을 사용하는 학생, 최근 1년 이내 치과정기검진을 받은 학생은 치위생학과가 가장 많았고, 다음으로 보건계열, 비보건계열 순이었다. 최근 1년 이내 치석제거의 경험은 치위생학과가 가장 많았고, 다음은 비보건계열, 보건계열 순으로 나타났다. 구강보건지식이 높을수록 구강건강 관심도와 구강 건강 중요성의 인식도가 높아졌고, 구강건강에 대한 관심도가 높을수록, 구강건강이 중요하다고 인식할수록, 구강건강상태가 건강하다고 인식할수록 칫솔질 횟수가 더 많아지는 것으로 나타났다. 즉 구강보건지식이 높을수록 구강보건 인식도가 높아지고 구강건강 실천도도 높아지게 되므로 대학생들을 대상으로 한 다양한 구강보건교육의 개발이나 활용방안을 모색해 나가야 할 것으로 보인다.
