Purpose : The purpose of this study was that For high school students in Busan, we will provide basic data in selecting dental hygienists by establishing the correct perception and image of dental hygienists by identifying the image of dentists and career doctors who will choose dental hygienists.
Method : The comparison of group differences between dental hygienists' images and dental hygienists' images according to their general characteristics and their career choice characteristics was analyzed by t-test and one-way ANOVA. The correlation between image factors of dental hygienists was analyzed using Pearson's correlation coefficient.
Result : The image for dental hygienists averaged 3.87 points overall, while the average for each area of the image was 4.09 points for professional images, 4.07 points for business images, 4.08 points for personal images and 3.28 points for social images. When choosing a career path, 18.8 percent said they would not consider dental hygiene, and if they said they would consider dental hygiene, both work, professional, personal and social images were significantly high (p<.05). Professional and professional images (r=0.975, p<) in the correlation between factors of dental hygienist images.05), personal and professional images (r=0.942, p<.05), social and professional images (r=0.865, p<.05), business and personal images (r=0.924, p p.05), business image and social image (r=0.858, p<.05), personal and social images (r=0.882, p<.05) expressed a statistically significant amount of correlation.
Conclusion : The study found that high school students' image of dental hygienists was rather positive, but their social image was rather low, and most students did not consider dental hygiene. Therefore, specific measures will be needed to build a desirable image for dental hygienists and positively recognize dental hygienists with active promotion and career experience for dental hygienists in the future.
