Interrelation of the Children`s Decayed tooth actual condition and social environment factor of Asian various nations

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Objective and method: The purpose of the study was to look for salivary factors related highly to dental health by calculating average values by each age and gender with early children, children, juveniles, young persons, middle-aged persons and gender with early making a close inquiry into correlations with dental carries, periodontal disease and dental hygiene conditions which are factors of dental conditions to make the standard value in salivation amount, salivary consistency and salivary pH of Korean people for salivary factor, one of elements to consider at the time of developing dental health index of Korean people.
Results: The salivary amount of early children was 4.58±2.35 and juveniles had the highest salivary amounts as 12.47±3.67. The salivary amount had a similar aspect. However, the salivary amount was reduced gradually according to an increase of age after that and old persons had low salivary amount as 5.80±2.04. In the salivary consistency, early children were 2.05°æ0.87 and juveniles had the lowest salivary amount as 1.50±0.54. Old persons had the highest salivary amount as 2.87±1.51. In correlations between age and salivary amount, they had high correlations from early children to juveniles (r=0.654, p=0.000). In correlations between age and salivary consistency, they had weak inverted correlations from early children to juveniles (r=-0.194, p=0.017) and had normal correlations from juveniles to old persons (r=0.500, p=0.000).
Conclusion: Salivation amount and consistency had differences according to each age and also had differences in an effect on oral conditions. Therefore, it was thought that salivation amount and consistency should be treated as an important fctor at the time of calculationg a personal dental health index.
