Abstract

Daily stress is emerging as one of major problems to affect oral health in complicated and diversified modern society. The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of the daily stress of adults on their oral symptoms. The subjects in this study were 460 adults, on whom a survey was conducted from July 1 to October 30, 2012. The findings of the study were as follows: As to the impact of daily stress on oral symptoms, symptoms of the lips and cheeks and symptoms of the tongue were under the significant influence of physical, behavioral and psychoemotional stress. Physical and psychoemotional stress had a significant impact on symptoms of the teeth and the gums, and temporomandibular symptoms were significantly affected by psychoemotional and physical stress. The findings of the study showed that daily stress exerted a larger influence on the lips, cheeks and mucous membrane of oral cavity, and that multiple oral diseases took place when there were not only physical and psychoemotional stress but behavioral stress.

생활스트레스는 점차 복잡하고 다양화되어 가는 현대사회에서 구강건강에 중요한 문제로 대두되고 있다. 본 연구는 2012년 7월 1일부터 10월 30일까지 460명의 성인을 대상으로 생활스트레스가 구강증상에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 일반적인 특성에 따른 생활스트레스의 차이 결과 연령, 수입, 직종, 흡연유무에 유의한 차이를 나타냈다. 2. 일반적 특성에 따른 구강증상의 차이는 연령, 교육수준, 수입, 직종, 전신질환 음주와 흡연 습관에서 유의한 차이를 나타냈다. 3. 신체적, 행동상, 심리 감정상 스트레스의 수준에 따른 구강증상의 차이는 신체적, 심리 감정상 증후는 입술 볼, 혀, 치아 잇몸, 악관절 증상에서 유의한 차이를 나타냈으며, 행동상 증후는 입술 볼, 혀. 악관절 증상에서 유의한 차이를 나타냈다. 4. 생활스트레스가 구강증상에 미치는 영향은 신체적 증후 (p<0.01), 행동상 증후(p<0.05), 심리 감정상 증후(p<0.05)는 입술 볼, 혀 증상에 유의한 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 신체적, 심리 감정상 증후는 치아 잇몸 증상에 유의한 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났으며, 심리 감정상(p<0.01), 신체적 징후(p<0.01)는 악관절 증상에 유의한 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 이처럼 생활 스트레스는 입술 볼, 혀 및 구강점막에 더 많은 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 신체적, 심리 감정스트레스를 포함한 행동상 스트레스 증상까지 발생할 경우 다발성 구강질환이 더 많이 나타날 가능성을 본 결과를 통해 입증할 수 있었으며, 추후 스트레스와 구강점막 질환과의 관계를 좀 더 구체적으로 살펴 볼 필요가 있다.
