본 연구는 대학생을 대상으로 기능적 구강건강문해력과 구강보건지식 및 구강보건행태의 관련성을 조사하였다. K시 대학교에 재학 중인 학생 410명을 대상으로 2015년 6월 22일 부터 26일 까지 설문조사를 하였으며, 398명의 자료를 최종 분석 대상으로 하였다. 그 결과 구강보건교육을 받은 경험이 있는 학생은 281(70.6)명, 교육 받은 경험이 없는 학생은 117(29.4)명으로 나타났으며, 구강보건교육을 받을 때 교육 내용 및 설명이 여러 번 어려웠다는 학생은 194(48.7)명, 간혹 어려웠다는 128(32.2)명으로 나타났다. 기능적 구강건강문해력 점수는 절반 이상의 대학생이 낮게 나타났다. 기능적 구강건강문해력 점수가 높을수록 구강보건지식이 높게 나타나고, 구강보건지식이 기능적 구강건강문해력에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 대학생들의 낮은 기능적 구강건강문해력 향상을 위한 효과적인 구강보건지식 전달 프로그램이 개발되어야 한다.

To improve oral hygiene management, the effects of toothbrush training on general oral hygiene based on the simplified oral hygiene index(S-OHI) and degree of knowledge about toothbrushing were examined. Pre-and post-training changes in the S-OHI (lower score = better oral health status) showed a significant decrease in score in all variables (gender, age, marital status, occupation, and level of education).Pre- and post-training changes in the degree of knowledge about toothbrushing showed a significant increase. Negative correlations between the S-OHI, oral health status, and degree of knowledge about toothbrushing and the S-OHI and the Decayed, Missing, Filled (DMF) index (the better the oral cavity environment, the lower the DMF index) were observed. Positive effects of repeated toothbrush training on the maintenance of healthy oral cavity environment and continuous oral health management were observed, as reflected by the correct toothbrushing-related knowledge and skills.
