Objectives: This study was conducted to find scaling patients’ oral health belief and satisfaction by applying Comprehensive Dental Hygiene Care (CDHC) process.
Methods: From July 1 to September 20, 2020, the data about 182 patients who had scaling in dental clinics and hospitals had been collected and analyzed. For data analysis, SPSS Statistics 22.0 was applied to conduct frequency analysis, chi-square, t-test, One way ANOVA and Pearson’s correlation analysis.
Results: Regarding oral health behavior, in the CDHC group 92.4% used oral care products (p<0.001), and 67.4% regularly visited dental clinics for oral care (p<0.001).
Regarding the oral health belief according to general characteristics, in the CDHC group, persons aged ‘50-65’ scored 2.4 (the highest), and were significantly different from those aged ‘20-29’ as the result of post-hoc analysis (p<0.001). Regarding the oral health belief of the CDHC group according to oral health behavior, the scaling cycle ‘3 months’ scored the highest (p<0.05). The patients’ satisfaction had high correlations with benefit (p<0.01) and Importance (p<0.05) as the sub factors of the oral health belief of the CDHC group.
Conclusions: CDHC positively influenced scaling patients’ oral health belief and satisfaction. Therefore, it is necessary to expand CDHC, as the medium to improve oral health belief and satisfaction, to clinical settings.
