'불소는 충치 예방에 도움이 된다'에서 보건계열이 높았다. 구강보건행태의 '혀닦기를 한다'가 평균 4.20으로 가장 높았다. '자신에게 맞는 칫솔질 방법을 알고, 시행하고 있다'와 '치주병 예방을 위해 정기적인 스켈링을 한다'가 보건계열이 높았다. 일반적인 특성 및 구강보건지식, 구강보건행태의회귀분석 결과 Y(구강보건행태)=2.692+0.377(치과정기검진)+0.145(치과교육경험)+0.215(구강보건교육경로)+0.045(구강보건지식) 분석되었다. 따라서 구강건강에 대한 지식 및 정보를 쉽게 습득할 수 있는 환경을 구축하여 대학생들의 구강건강을 증진시킬 수 있도록 해야 할 것이다.
