학교구강보건실 운영여부에 따라 초등학교 아동의 구강상태의 차이를 파악하여 학교구강보건사업을 지속적으로 발전시키기 위한 기초 자료를 제시하고자 실시한 본 연구는 사업군으로 화성시의 화산초등학교 아동1163명과 대조군은 동일 지역권 내의 S 초등학교 아동 485명을 대상으로 2004년 5월1일부터 5월 30일 까지 구강검사를 시행하였고 자료를 이용하여 얻어낸 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 영구치 우식경험율은 두 군 모두에서 학년이 증가할수록 높아지며 특히 대조군에서 더 높고 사업군은 45%이며 대조군은 65%로 사업군이 낮게 조사되었다. 2. 우식경험영구치율도 두 군 모두에서 학년이 증가할수록 높아지는 경향이며 그 비율이 대조군에서 더 높고 사업군은 30.%이며 대조군은 44.0%로 사업군이 낮게 조사되었다. 3. 우식경험 영구치 지수는 사업군은 1.0개 대조군은 1.6개로 사업군이 낮고 1학년에서 6학년까지의 증가율도 사업군에서 훨씬 양호하였다. 4. 우식영구치율은 1학년 때에는 사업군에서 약간 높았던 것이 학년이 높아질수록 사업군에서 비교적 낮아지며 6학년에서는 사업군 42.0% 대조군 87.0%로 대조군보다 사업군에서 거의 50%이상 낮게 조사되었다. 5. 처치영구치율은 1학년 때에는 대조군에서 약간 높은 경향이었으나 학년이 높아질수록 사업군에서 높아지는 경향을 보이다가 6학년에서는 사업군에서 2배 이상 높았다. 이상의 결과를 검토한 결과 사업군에서 구강보건 상태가 매우 양호하게 나타났다. 이는 학교구강보건실 운영을 통하여 아동들에게 적기에 구강보건관리를 실시해 줌으로써 구강질환을 미리 예방하고 학생의 구강보건 지식과 태도 및 행동을 변화시켜 나타난 결과로 사료되는바 학교구강보건실을 점차적으로 확대 설치하여 학령기 아동에게 계속적으로 포괄적 구강보건예방 사업을 실행할 수 있어야 한다. 이를 위해서는 전문인력인 치과위생사를 적극 활용하여 아동들의 구강건강을 증진시켜야 할 것이며 또한 예방업무와 구강보건교육을 강화하기 위해서는 각 행정단위별로 배치되어 있는 공중보건치의사와 치과위생사를 적극 활용하여 구강건강관리를 최고에 달할 수 있도록 하여야 할 것이다.

Objectives: This study was conducted at a request for cooperation through an analysis of the effect of toothbrushing facilities at a public health center in Seongdong-gu. Also, with the aim of furnishing basic data to the proposal of a program for improving the ability of school aged children in managing oral cavities and developing a correct toothbrushing habit, the study conducted an investigation of how toothbrushing facilities affect change in the oral environment management ability and behavior of oral health care. Methods: From among elementary schools located in Seongdong-gu, Seoul the study selected A Elementary School where toothbrushing facilities were established and have been operated since 2008, B Elementary School in an adjacent region within the jurisdiction of Seongdong-gu where the demographic environment was similar among schools where toothbrushing facilities were newly established in 2012, and C Elementary School without toothbrushing facilities. Then the study was aimed at first grade students of the schools and an investigation was carried out from April to December 2012. Through a dental checkup, the study evaluated the teeth and periodontal health conditions, and a test of the oral environment management ability was undertaken three times. Regarding change of oral health care behavior, the study carried out a self-recording survey. Results: 1. Concerning decayed and filled tooth(dft) and decayed and filled surface (dfs), A Elementary School where toothbrushing facilities have been established and operated from the past showed a relatively lower decayed, missing, and filled teeth index than B Elementary School where toothbrushing facilities were established in 2012 or C Elementary School without toothbrushing facilities; however, there was no significant difference (p>0.05). For CPI, there was no significant difference by school; however, in looking into the difference between boy students and girl students, Code (0) was discovered higher in boy students whereas Code (1) was shown higher in girl students. 2. In the PHP index test in accordance with the existence of toothbrushing facilities before the installation of toothbrushing facilities, for A Elementary School where toothbrushing facilities have been established and operated from the past, the school recorded 4.28 points whereas B Elementary School where the facilities were established in 2012 recorded 3.51 points. Meanwhile C Elementary School without the facilities posted 4.30 points. Therefore there was a statistically significant difference according to the existence of toothbrushing facilities (p<0.05). 3. In a comparison of teeth health care behavior according to the existence of toothbrushing facilities, the number of answers that the respondent did not brush their teeth after lunch over the past one week was higher in B Elementary School and C Elementary School where there were no toothbrushing facilities. Regarding the average number of brushing after lunch for one week, it was discovered higher in A Elementary School (p<0.01). 4. In change of teeth health care behavior before and after the establishment of toothbrushing facilities, the case of answering that the respondents did not brush their teeth after lunch for one week increased more after establishment than before establishment. Also the average number of teeth brushings after lunch for one week decreased further after the establishment of toothbrushing facilities; however, it did not show a significant difference (p>0.05). One of the reasons that they do not brush their teeth, "the lack of a place", decreased significantly after establishment than before establishment (p<0.05), whereas the answer, "because their friends do not brush their tooth" increased greatly after establishment than before establishment; however, there was no significant difference (p>0.05). 5. In the comparison of the degree of knowledge about dental health according to the existence of toothbrushing facilities, the degree of knowledge about dental health was shown significantly higher in A Elementary School with toothbrushing facilities than in B Elementary School and C Elementary School where there were no toothbrushing facilities (p<0.01). Conclusions: Given the above results, it is difficult to attract change in behavior only with an environmental improvement; therefore, it is deemed necessary to develop an educational program that will help children to make a habit of oral health care not only through a school but also through a related policy and financial support of government organizations as well as the construction of the basis of a systematic and consistent cooperative system with relevant organizations.

주의력결핍-과잉행동장애(Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder, ADHD)는 학령기 어린이의 가장 흔한 정신장애로 점차 증가하는 추세이다. ADHD 어린이들은 자극에 선택적으로 오래 집중하는 것을 어려워하고, 말이 많거나 허락 없이 자리에서 일어나고 뛰어다니며, 팔과 다리를 끊임없이 움직이는 등 활동 수준이 높다. 또한 충동적인 성향이 있어서 넘어지거나 사고를 당하는 경우도 많다. 이에 치과치료 시 행동조절, 구강위생, 외상 등의 문제를 예상할 수 있는 바, 치과의사의 관심이 증대되어야 할 필요가 있다. 본 증례는 ADHD로 진단받은 만 8세 여아로 약물진정 및 심리적인 행동조절법을 이용해 치과적 주소를 해결해 주었고, 문헌고찰을 통해 다소의 지견을 얻었다.
