Abstract
|
|
|
The present study is designed to discover the relationship between the cognizance level of dental
hygiene and its practices in order to prepare more effective precaution methods of oral diseases by surveying 518 high school students in the Kyunggi province. When analyzed with SPSS(version 12) for frequency analysis, ANOVA, and t-test, the survey shows;
1. In general, over 85% of the surveyees are in the 1st and 2nd grades with similar sex ratio patterns. The majority(47.4%) of the surveyees’parents are 45-49 years old and highschool graduated(49.8%).
2. Dental hygiene practices hardly seem to be related with the surveyee’s education and sex(p=0.842).
The parents’age and education only show difference depending on the variables with no statistical meanings.
3. The subjects recognizing the need of education show statistically meaningful difference(0.000) with high dental hygiene knowledge points.
4. The subjects individually thinking they maintain sound oral conditions show statistically meaningful difference(p=0.040) in high dental hygiene practices.
5. It indicates that males show higher interest(2.90) in participating in the school dental hygiene
orientation than females(2.86) and most show average interest in the school dental hygiene.
