ABSTRACT

Objectives: This study was conducted to investigate factors related to oral health and subjective health in Korean adolescents, a total of 51,850 people. Methods: Subjective health by general characteristics, subjective health by oral health characteristics, and subjective health by oral health symptoms were analyzed by a cross-analysis. Factors influencing subjective health were analyzed using multiple regression analysis. Results: As a factor influencing subjective health, the number of times teeth were brushed 0.62 times lower (p<0.001) for 0 times, and 0.91 times lower (p<0.05) for 1-2 times. The risk was 1.33 times higher (p<0.001) if teeth were brushed before going to bed, and 1.10 times higher (p<0.05) if an intrdental brush was used, In cases where oral health education was not received, subjective health was 0.86 times lower (p<0.001). In cases where there was no pain subjective health was 1.44 times higher (p<0.001), gingival bleeding was 1.51 times higher (p<0.001), or malodor was 1.53 times higher (p<0.001). Conclusions: Based on the above results, the relationship between oral health and subjective health was confirmed, and it is thought that opportunities to develop preventive programs to promote youth health should be expanded.
