Abstract

This study was conducted to identify an influence of subjective oral health status and oral health literacy on oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in elderly. Participants in this cross-sectional survey were 248 aged over 65 older people in Jecheon city. Data were collected from July. 3 to 21, 2016 using the self-report questionnaire. Subjective oral health status, oral health literacy and oral health-related quality of life were measured. The results of multiple regression analysis showed that subjective oral health status, oral health literacy, cohabitant, the number of teeth, education level and religion significantly predicted OHRQoL in the elderly people, explaining 44.3% of the variance. Therefore, health care providers should consider that interventions preventing tooth loss and improving oral health status and oral health literacy are required to enhance the OHRQoL in the elderly people.

이 연구는 노인의 주관적 구강건강상태와 구강건강문해력이 구강건강관련 삶의 질에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여 시행되었다. 충북 제천시에 거주하는 65세 이상 노인 248명을 대상으로 단면조사를 실시하였다. 주관적 구강건강상태, 구강건강문해력 및 구강건강관련 삶의 질을 자가보고 설문지를 사용하여 2016년 7월 3일부터 21일까지 자료를 수집하였다. 다중회귀분석결과, 노인의 구강건강관련 삶의 질에 영향을 주는 유의한 변수로 주관적 구강건강상태, 구강건강문해력, 동거인 유무, 치아 수, 교육수준 및 종교 등으로 나타났고 이들 변수들은 노인의 구강건강관련 삶의 질을 44.3% 설명했다. 따라서 건강관리 제공자는 노인의 구강건강관련 삶의 질을 증진시키기 위하여 치아 상실을 예방하고 구강건강상태와 구강건강문해력을 향상시키는 중재 프로그램을 고려할 필요가 있다.
