Abstract

The aim of this study was to assess change of the oral health related quality of life after fixed prosthetic treatment using implant therapy. One hundreds and twenty patients from 3 dental clinics in Seoul, Incheon and Daegu were recruited after verbal consent. The oral health related quality of life by OHIP-14, the treatment satisfaction by North Texas Periodontal Associates and the oral health interest w+ere measured before fixed prosthetic treatment using implant and one months after prosthetics. Total OHIP-14 changed significantly between pre- and post- treatment (p<0.001). Although gender(p=0.01), economic status (p=0.04) and education status (p=0.01) affect to OHIP-14 significantly before treatment, these factors didn't have effects on OHIP-14 after treatment. The subjective satisfaction in masticatory function, social function and psychological function increased significantly after treatment (p<0.001). Besides, the patients' oral health interests increased significantly after treatment (p<0.001). The fixed prosthetic treatment using implant therapy can improve the oral health related quality of life, subjective satisfaction of mastication, social function and psychological function, and oral health interest of dental patients.

본 연구는 2009년 8월부터 2009년 11월까지 편의추출된 서울, 인천, 대구지역 치과 병의원 3곳에서 1개 이상 3개 이하 치아에 대해 임플란트 시술을 받은 20세 이상의 남녀 성인 환자 중 102명을 대상으로 하여 3개 이하의 임플란트 고정성 보철물 장착 전후의 구강건강관련 삶의 질(OHIP-14) 변화에 관하여 조사하고 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 3개 이하의 임플란트 고정성 보철물 장착 후 OHIP-14 총점은 치료 전에 비해 유의하게 감소하여(p<0.001) 구강건강관련 삶의 질이 향상된 것으로 나타났다. 2. 인구통계적 특성에 따른 보철물 장착 전 시점의 OHIP-14 총점은 성별(p=0.01), 경제적 수준별(p=0.04), 교육수준별(p=0.01)에는 유의한 차이가 있었으나 보철물 장착 후에는 OHIP-14 총점의 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 3. 3개 이하의 임플란트 고정성 보철물 장착 후 North Texas Periodontal Associates에서 제시한 모형의 저작 기능, 사회적 기능, 심리적 기능 만족도에 있어서도 유의하게 변화하였으나(p<0.001) 세부지표 중 구강건강에 대한 염려의 전후 변화는 유의하지 않았다. 4. 3개 이하의 임플란트 고정성 보철물 장착 후 구강건강관련 관심도 변화에 있어서 잇솔질 횟수 증가(p<0.001), 주기적 구강검진(p<0.001), 구강검진필요 인지(p<0.001), 구강질병치료 인지(p<0.001) 등에 있어서도 유의하게 변화하였다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 소수 치아 결손 시 임플란트를 이용한 고정성 보철물 장착이 구강건강관련 삶의 질, 저작기능, 사회적 기능, 심리적 기능 만족도, 구강건강관련 관심도를 향상시킬 수 있다고 판단되었다.
