Objectives : The purpose of this study was to analyze dental records performed through a dental hygiene process and provide basic data on clinical training education for dental hygienists. Methods : The dental hygiene records of 440 senior dental hygiene students in Y University from March 2005 to September 2008, were examined. The needs of the clients confirmed by the dental hygiene diagnosis was based on Human Need Theory. The client's needs and the number of visits were analyzed according to the general characteristics(gender, age). The contents of the dental hygiene implementation performed according to the needs were divided into dental hygiene care and oral health education. The dental hygiene evaluation was classified into 'Met of Goal', 'Partially Met of Goal', and 'Unmet of Goal' according to the dental hygiene diagnosis. Data analysis was performed for the Frequency statistics and a Fisher's exact test using SPSS 12.0K for Windows. Results : 1. The clients were mostly aged in their 20's(307 clients). 2. The dental hygiene care usually performed was 'Scaling' and 'Recommendation to visit a dental clinic', and the education performed was 'How to brush teeth'. The implementation result from the need to Freedom of Stress was as simple as 'Be careful when treating' and 'Explanation of medical treatment and tools'. 3. The dental hygiene evaluation showed a higher met rate in the field of education than in that of the dental hygiene care. The reason for unmet the goal was 'Lack of the client's efforts and they didn't visit dental clinic'. Conclusions : The search for a range of clients for dental hygiene process should be made through effective connections between the local community institutions and schools. It was suggested that they should be strength the practical exercises for clients suffering dental anxiety and stress in dental treatments. In addition, education and attempts to motivate the clients should be performed according to their characteristics.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in factors on unmet dental scaling rate before and after the national health insurance. Methods: This study used the $2^{nd}$ data from the Community Health Survey. The study participants numbered 209,341 in 2011 and 219,517 in 2013.The average age was $51{\pm}17$ in 2011 and $52{\pm}17$ in 2013. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, chi -squared test and logistic regression using SPSS 23.0. Results: The scaling experienced rate of Korean adults has fallen by 3.5% from 66% to 69.5%. Logistic regression analysis showed that 2.7 times more 'people who were educated at elementary school level or lower' did not use dental scaling compared to higher educated children. Agriculture, forestry and fisheries workers did not use scaling at 2.0 times. Local residents with an income of less than one million won did not use 1.7times scaling. Local residents of 'no private insurance' did not use scaling at 1.5 times. In the case of the predisposing factors, the 20s had less than 1.8 times scaling compared to 50s. In the case of needs factor, local residents who experienced 'bad oral health status' and 'dental calculus' were treated scaling 1.3 times less compared to people with good oral health status and normal periodontal symptoms. Conclusions: In Korea, local residents are less frequently treated scaling due to enabling factors such as accessibility. In addition, predisposing factors such as age and sex, and oral health status and periodontal symptoms were related to not using the dental scaling. Therefore, the universality of health care services should be considered so that people who need periodontal care can use scaling.

본 연구는 2016년 지역사회건강조사 원시자료를 이용하여 만 25~54세 연령의 104,811명의 경제활동 인구를 대상으로 구강검진수검 여부와 관련된 요인들의 영향 정도를 확인하고자 하였다. Multiple logistic regression analysis를 시행하여 구강검진 수검률에 영향을 미치는 일반적 특성, 사회경제적 지리적 특성, 구강건강관리행태 요인을 파악하였다. 연령 및 교육수준이 높을수록, 치석제거를 경험한 경우, 주관적 구강건강수준이 매우 좋은 경우, 필요치과진료 수진자에서 구강검진 수검률이 높게 나타났다. 소득분위가 높을수록 구강검진 수검률이 낮게 확인되었다. 경제활동 인구의 연령, 결혼여부, 교육수준, 지역, 소득수준, 직업, 치석제거 경험 여부, 필요치과진료 미수진 여부 등이 구강검진 수검 여부에 있어 유의한 영향이 있음이 나타났다. 구강검진에 대한 접근성 향상을 위한 효율적인 구강검진사업에 실증적 근거를 마련하고자 한다.

Purpose: This study examined health behaviors, use of health services, and depression among women who perform daytime and shift work in Korea, as well as factors related to depression. Methods: We conducted a secondary analysis using data from the 2018 data of the 7th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Data on women, 1,493 regular daytime workers and 322 shift workers, were analyzed. Results: Women shift workers (χ²=43.97, p<.001), had a lower education level (χ²=45.56, p<.001), and lower personal income (χ²=16.85, p=.030) than their daytime counterparts. A higher proportion of shift workers were unmarried (χ²=37.47, p<.001) and they typically worked fewer than 40 hours per week (χ²=69.94, p<.001). The depression score of shift workers was higher than that of daytime workers (t=2.85, p=.005). A higher proportion of shift workers also drank alcohol (χ²=6.49, p=.032) and smoked (χ²=30.79, p<.001). Over 8% of shift workers typically slept fewer than 5 hours per night (χ²=14.17, p=.024). It was confirmed that depression in women shift workers was affected by age, personal income, marital status, health status, and smoking status, in addition to cancer screening participation, unmet medical care needs, and unmet dental care needs. Conclusion: More attention should be given to the health needs of women working shifts. Health promotion programs specific for women shift workers are needed to improve their physical and mental health, encourage use of medical care services, and improve public health policies and systems.

Objectives: In this study, both subjective and objective levels of oral health were used to identify the relationship between oral health inequalities. Methods: Korean National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey data from 2013 to 2015 were combined to create an analysis plan. Oral health questions categorized as subjective oral health conditions and oral health-related diseases used dental tissue disease status as data measured by the Community Periodical Index(CPI) and decayed, missing, filled teeth(DMFT) experience. Other data on oral health behaviors such as toothache experience, the frequency of toothbrush use, chewing problems, oral examination status, and unmet dental care needs were classified and analyzed according to the socioeconomic level. Data were analyzed using frequency and cross analyses, and the statistical significance level was set at 0.05. Results: It was found that higher the economic and educational level, better was the subjective oral health, lower the CPI, lower the experience of toothache, higher the frequency of toothbrush use, lower the number of people having chewing problems, and higher the frequency of oral checkups. Conclusions: Oral health inequality exists among social classes. It is suggested that continuous research and efforts be carried out to promote oral health while considering socioeconomic and educational levels. Further, active government efforts will be needed to address polarization by social class.
