본 연구는 치주질환의 자각증상과 삶의 질과의 관련성을 분석하여 성인의 전반적인 삶의 질 향상 방안을 제시하고자 시행하였다. 2010년 1월 7일부터 3월 14일까지 서울 및 경기지역에 거주하는 35세 이상에서 65세 미만의 성인 중 치과의료기관에 방문한 경험이 있는 성인 450명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였으며 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 연구대상자가 인식한 치주질환 자각증상 중 '양치질시 잇몸에서 피가 난다'가 294명(65.8%)으로 가장 많았으며, '흔들리는 치아가 있다'가 84명(18.8%)으로 가장 적었다. 2. 사회 인구학적 특성, 구강건강행동에 따라 치주질환의 자각증상을 분석한 결과 남자는 여자보다 치은출혈, 구취 및 치아통증을 더 많이 인식하고 있었다. 연령이 증가할수록 치간공간과 치아동요 및 치아통증을, 교육수준이 낮아질수록 치간공간과 치아동요를 더 많이 인식하였다. 월 평균 가정 총수입이 400만원 미만인 집단은 그 이상인 집단보다 치은부종과 치간공간을 더 많이 인식하였다(p<0.01). 정기적으로 구강검진을 시행하지 않는 집단은 시행하는 집단보다 치은출혈을 더 많이 인식하였고, 정기적으로 치석제거를 시행하지 않는 집단에서 치은출혈과 구취를 더 많이 인식하였다(p<0.05). 3. 치주질환 자각증상에 따라 OHIP-14 하위요인의 수준을 분석한 결과 치주질환의 자각증상을 인식한 집단은 인식하지 않은 집단에 비해 기능적 제한, 신체적 동통, 정신적 불편과 다양한 영역의 능력저하 및 사회적 불리에 대한 경험이 더 많았다(p<0.001). 4. OHIP-14와 사회 인구학적 특성, 구강건강행동, 치주질환 자각증상과의 관련성을 분석한 결과 남자와 치은출혈, 치은부종 및 구취를 인식한 집단은 대조군보다 삶의 질이 더 낮은 것으로 나타났다(p<0.05). 이상의 결과로 볼 때 치주질환 자각증상의 감소는 기능제한과 통증경험, 신체적 능력저하 등의 다양한 부정적 경험을 줄여 삶의 질을 향상시키는데 중요한 역할을 할 것으로 사료된다.
