Objectives : The purpose of this study was to survey Korean solders' oral healthcare recognition and perceived oral health concern. Methods : The data was collected from a questionnaire given 157 soldiers in Chungcheongnamdo. The data was analyzed into t-test, one-way ANOVA and Pearson's correlation analysis. Results : 25.5% replied that they were concerned about oral health. Soldiers who have received oral healthcare education exhibited higher recognition on the prevention of dental caries and periodontal disease. Moreover, those who have used oral hygiene devices also showed higher recognition on the prevention of dental caries and periodontal disease. The recognition of preventive effects on dental caries, in particular, showed a statistically significant difference (p<0.05). In regard to the relationship between oral health concern and recognition of oral healthcare, those who were more concerned about oral health were higher recognition of periodontal disease prevention(r=0.254, p<0.01).

본 논문은 치주건강인식도와 자기구강위생관리행위의 수준과 관련성을 파악하여 환자들에게 효율적이고 올바른 구강건강관리를 할 수 있도록 계속구강건강관리프로그램을 위한 기초자료로 제공하고자 시도되었다. D지역의 치과의원 1곳을 임의로 선정하여 치과에 내원하는 환자들을 대상으로 2013년 12월 2일부터 12월 31까지 설문조사하여 회수한 설문지 592부를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 일반적 특성에 따른 치주건강인식도에서 연령은 '증상'에서 50~59세가 유의하게 가장 높았고 학력과 월 소득은 높을수록 유의하게 높았으며 주관적 구강건강상태는 '치료'와 '관리'에서 건강할수록 유의하게 높았다. 일반적 특성에 따른 자기구강위생관리행위에서 성별은 남자보다 여자가 더 유의하게 높았으며 연령은 20~29세가 가장 유의하게 높았고 학력이 높을수록 유의하게 높았다. 월 소득과 주관적 구강건강상태가 높을수록 치주건강인식도는 유의하게 높았다. 치주건강인식도와 자기구강위생관리행위의 상관관계에서 치주건강인식도 중 관리 및 오개념과 자기구강위생관리 행위는 정(+)의 약한 상관관계가 있었다. 대상자들의 일반적 특성과 치주건강인식도가 자기구강 위생관리행위에 미치는 영향력을 알아본 결과에서 학력과 월 소득이 높을수록, 남자보다 여자가, 관리에 관한 치주건강인식도가 높을수록, 치료에 관한 치주건강인식도가 낮을수록 자기구강위생관리행위가 유의하게 높았다. 독립변수 중 관리에 관한 치주건강인식도가 상대적으로 자기구강위생관리행위에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 종합해 보면 관리와 오개념에 관한 치주건강인식도가 높을수록 자기구강위생관리행위는 높은 것으로 연관성이 있었으며, 자기구강위생관리행위에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 성별, 학력, 월 소득, 치주건강인식도 하위영역 중 치료와 관리였다. 따라서 치과에 내원하는 환자들의 인구사회학적 특성을 고려하여 치주건강에 관한 교육을 통하여 환자들의 치주건강관리에 대한 태도의 변화를 유도하여 자기구강위생관리행위를 잘 실천할 수 있도록 계속구강건강관리프로그램을 통해 도와주어야 하겠다.

Palatogingival groove (PGG) is an anomaly in the maxillary anterior teeth, often accompanied by the area of bony destruction adjacent to the teeth with no carious or traumatic history. The hidden trap in the tooth can harbor plaque and bacteria, resulting in periodontal destruction with or without pulpal pathologic change. Related diseases can involve periodontal destruction, combined endodontic-periodontal lesions, or separate endodontic and periodontal lesions. Disease severity and prognosis related to PGG depend on several factors, including location, range, depth, and type of the groove. Several materials have been used and recommended for cases of extensive periodontal destruction from PGG to remove and block the inflammatory source and recover the health of surrounding periodontal tissues. Even in cases of severe periodontal destruction, several studies have reported favorable treatment outcomes with proper management. With new options in diagnosis and treatment, clinicians need a detailed understanding of the characteristics, treatment, and prognosis of PGG to successfully manage the condition.
