본 연구는 청소년의 구강건강지식에 대한 오개념과 관련요인을 파악함으로써 올바른 구강건강지식 개념형성을 위한 방안을 마련하는데 기초자료를 제공하기 위하여 실시하였다. 연구대상자의 구강건강지식 수준은 비교적 많은 문항에서 학생들이 바른 개념을 형성하고 있었으나, 칫솔손잡이, 잇몸약 사용, 수돗물 불소 조정사업에서 오개념이 형성되어 있었다. 구강건강지식 수준은 전체 평균 10.78점을 나타내었으며, 집단 간 오차범위 내에서 차이를 보이지 않았다. 구강건강지식 오개념의 집단별 연관성은 성별과 학력에서 차이를 보이지 않았으나 구강보건교육 이수 학생 보다 올바른 개념이 형성되어 있는 것으로 나타났다(p<0.001). 구강건강지식을 얻는 경로는 인터넷, 대중매체(35.4%)에서 습득 비율이 가장 높았고, 학교(9.6%)에서 습득 비율이 가장 낮았으며, 구강건강지식 수준은 학교에서 10.56점으로 가장 낮았다. 따라서 청소년의 바른 구강건강행동을 위한 학교 구강건강교육 활성화 및 교육기회를 부여할 수 있도록 구강건강교육자 양성이 매우 중요함을 알 수 있다.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to investigate the knowledge, practice, and awareness toward oral health in the special school teachers. Methods : A self-reported questionnaire was filled out by 133 teachers in special education schools in Seoul, Gyeonggi-do, Chungbuk, and Jeonbuk. Data were analyzed using the statistical package SPSS WIN 12.0 for frequency, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffe test(post hoc test), and Pearson's correlation coefficient. Results : In oral health knowledge, the average score of female teachers was 8.31 in comparison to 7.75 in male teachers(p<.05). In oral health practice, the average score of female teachers was 3.71 and that of male teachers was 3.69. In oral health awareness, the average score of female teachers was 4.12 and male teachers had 3.93. The teachers in special schools had a close positive correlation between oral health awareness and practice(r=.448, p<.05). Conclusions : The teachers tended to have better knowledge of oral health but they did not practice the oral health behavior. The teachers have the important role in oral health management for the disabled children by providing the right toothbrushing method.

The purpose of this study was to identify the influence of oral health knowledge and awareness of caregivers in charge on the oral health-related quality of life of the elderly in nursing homes. Data were collected from 115 elderly without dementia and their 115 caregivers in nursing facilities in S and C cities. The data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 22.0 program. The average score for oral health knowledge and awareness of the caregivers were 11.62, 39.22 points each and the oral health-related quality of life of the elderly was 40.62 points. Oral health knowledge, awareness of caregivers and oral health-related quality of life of the elderly showed a difference according to oral health education experience of the caregivers (𝜌<.001), the nursing facility evaluation grade (𝜌=.016), and the oral health education experience (𝜌=.008), working hours of 40 hours or less per week of caregivers (𝜌=.008) each in order. The influencing factors on the oral health-related quality of life of the elderly were the oral health education experience, the working hours per week of the caregivers and the facility evaluation grade. This findings imply that developing customized program and the work environment improvement for caregivers should be considered to improve the oral health-related quality of life of the elderly in nursing homes.

The purpose of this study was to develop effective oral health education programs for mentally retarded children and promote their oral health, by offering oral health education for 45 mentally retarded children between age 6 to 20, tracking the change of their knowledge depending on the frequency of education, and examining the educational effect before and after oral health education. The children with mental retardation attended a special school for idiots in Gweonseon-gu, Suwon, Kyonggi Province, being able to take training(IQ 25-49). The education program was designed to be suitable for their cognitive power after consultation with a special school teacher. A teacher provided the same education seven times, once a week, and an interview was held with each of them to assess their correct answer rate. The findings of this study were as below: 1. The repeated oral health education served to have the children with mental retardation acquire better knowledge about harmful food for the teeth, what had to be done after eating cookies or candies between meals, the right time for toothbrushing, the concept of dental caries, and how to cope with dental caries(p<0.01). But after that education was offered four times, the frequency of that education made no difference. 2. The repeated oral health education increased, their knowledge on the role of the teeth and the right choice of toothbrush(p<0.01), yet there was no significant difference in their knowledge about oral health behavior, because they had already been familiar with that. 3. As a result of investigating the change of their oral health know-ledge before and after oral health education according to the type of handicap, the type of handicap made no significant difference to the change of their oral health knowledge. 4. The oral health education for the children with menial retardation had a significantly different effect on their knowledge about harmful food for the teeth, what had to be done after eating between meals, the right time for toothbrushing, the role of the teeth. the right choice and use of toothbrush, how to do toothbrushing, and fluorine(p<0.01).

이번 연구에서는 근로자들의 구강건강증진 및 구강질환 예방을 도모하고, 구강건강에 대한 관심을 증가시키며, 근로자 구강보건사업의 지지 및 참여를 높이고자 산업간호사를 대상으로 한 구강보건교육 프로그램을 개발 및 수행하여 교육 전 후의 구강보건지식 및 태도수준을 비교하여 평가함으로써 근로자 구강보건교육 프로그램 개발을 위한 기초 자료로 활용하고자 하였다. 산업간호사를 대상으로 구강보건교육을 실시한 후, 교육 전 후 자가인지 구강건강수준 및 구강건강관리법에 대한 인지 및 권장수준의 변화를 비교 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 산업간호사를 대상으로 한 구강보건교육의 시행 후, 자가인지 구강건강수준과 구강건강관심도는 교육 시행 전에 비해 모두 유의하게 증가하였다. 치실 혹은 치간솔 사용, 법정 구강검진을 포함한 정기검진, 정기적인 치면세마를 포함한 치주병 예방법에 대한 인지수준이 교육 전에 비해 모두 유의하게 향상되었고, 구강질병 예방 및 구강건강증진을 위한 구강건강관리법에 대한 권장수준도 교육 전에 비해 매우 유의하게 향상되었다. 이와 연관된 요인을 확인해 본 결과, 구강건강관심도가 낮을수록 치주병 예방법별 인지수준과 구강건강관리법별 권장수준의 향상 정도가 모든 항목에서 크게 나타났다. 산업간호사의 근로자 구강건강증진 프로그램에 대한 의견을 듣고자 설문조사를 실시한 결과, 근로자를 위한 구강건강증진 프로그램을 수행하는 데 필요한 항목으로는 구강보건교육 전후 모두 '산업간호사에 대한 구강보건교육'이 1순위로 나타났다. 그러므로, 근로자들의 구강건강증진을 도모하기 위하여 산업구강보건의 중요한 협력자인 산업간호사를 대상으로 하는 지속적인 구강보건교육 시행이 필요하고, 이러한 교육을 통해 산업간호사의 구강보건지식 및 태도가 향상된다면, 앞으로 근로자 구강보건사업을 계획하고 수행하는 데 있어 산업간호사의 지지와 참여를 효율적으로 이끌어낼 수 있을 것이라 생각된다.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to examine the awareness-perception factors and oral health promotion behavior of dental hygiene and nonhealth-related students in an effort to find out factors affecting their oral health promotion behavior. Methods : The subjects in this study were students in the three-year-course dental hygiene and students in the two-year-course nonhealth-related department in G college located in the city of Gwangju. After a survey was conducted, the collected data were analyzed and compared. Results : 1. The dental hygiene students were statistically significantly ahead of the nonhealth-related students in perceived oral health knowledge(p<0.001), awareness of the importance of oral health(p<0.001), perceived oral health status(p<0.001) and oral health interest(p<0.001). 2. Concerning the characteristics of oral health promotion behavior, the dental hygiene students were statistically significantly better at toothbrushing(p<0.001) and the use of dental floss(p<0.001) than the nonhealth-related students. 3. Regarding factors affecting oral health promotion behavior, oral health knowledge and oral health interest were identified as the factors that impacted on oral health promotion behavior. Out of the two, oral health interest exercised a greater influence on that. Conclusions : It seems that oral health education could motivate students to be concerned about their oral health, to acquire knowledge on that and eventually to change their oral health behavior and attitude. As for college students, oral health education provides a final chance for them to check their oral health knowledge, attitude and oral health promotion behavior before they start to work as full-fledged adults, and institutional measures should be taken to offer more intensive official oral health education.
