AB - Objectives: The purpose of the study is to investigate the cognition of dental caries prevention by the level of socioeconomic statusbased on Gallup survey in Korea.
Methods: This study was done by Korean Gallup survey in October, 2010. A trained researcher carried out the computer aidedtelephone interview(CATI) using a structured questionnaire. This study was based on the latest population statistics of residentregistration and whole country's phone data base. This survey included 869 selected Korean adults over 19 years old, and they wereasked to answer a CATI. The questionnaire consisted of general characteristics of the subjects and socioeconomic factors includingage, gender, education level, monthly income, and residential area. Cognition of dental caries prevention was measured by Likert 4scale including ‘much’, ‘a little’, ‘rarely’, and ‘never’. The attitude toward dental caries prevention consisted of daily tooth brushingfrequency, experience of oral health education, regular dental checkup, chewing gums(xylitol), regular scaling, and use of oral caredevices. Data were analyzed using SPSS 20.0 for frequency analysis, t-test, chi-square test, and one way ANOVA. Cronbach’s alphawas 0.462 in oral health concern and attitude.
Results: Mean of the frequencies of daily tooth brushing in men was 2.54 times and 2.78 in women. By the comparison to age group,35-44 years old group had 2.82 times, 19-37 years old group had 2.72 times, and 45-64 years old group had 2.51 times. The level ofeducation and monthly income was proportional to the tooth brushing frequency. Highly educated and higher monthly income groupreceived regular dental checkup within a year and used the auxiliary oral health care devices.
Conclusions: This study suggested the relationship between dental caries prevention and socioeconomic status. It is important toprovide the low socioeconomic group with the better oral health promotion services in the future.
