This study is to know the determinants that influence teeth¡¯s health recognition of adults in Jeju areas.
A result of this study comes from an analysis on basis of a survey composed of adult respondents.
1. Regarding the general characteristics, this study shows that there is a high relationship between sex and dental caries. However, this study does not indicate that there is a statistically significant relationship between age and jobs and dental caries.
2. Regarding a study of a relationship between general characteristics such as sex, age, and job and a regular teeth examination, this study is not statistically significant. However, a relationship between teeth¡¯s frequency on teeth health recognition and sex is statistically significant. Regarding an experience to visit dental clinics, 95 males (72.5%) respond that they do not visit dental clinics and 88 females (73.9%) respond negative answers for the experience to visit dental clinics. A study of an experience to remove calculus is not statistically significant.
3. A study regarding a relationship between age and the teeth frequency and an experience to visit dental clinics is not statistically significant. However, a study between age and an experience to remove teeth calculus is statistically significant. This study shows that 30 respondents (19.6%) of less than 29 years old the most highly have an experience to remove teeth calculus.
4. Regarding a study for a relationship between jobs and teeth health exercise in teeth health
recognition, the case of a frequency of teeth brush, an experience to visit dental clinics, and an
experience to remove teeth calculus is statistically significant.
5. This study shows that there is a statistically significant relationship between an existence and non existence of dental caries and a regular teeth examination in the teeth health recognition.
