And it's also meant to provide information on individual education programs for the right maintenance and use of implant. The subjects in this study were 437 dental consumers in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province, on whom a self-administered survey was conducted.
The findings of the study were as follows:
1. Regarding implant awareness, 87.4 percent of the consumers investigated were cognizant of it. As to an intention of using implant in case of tooth loss, 73.5 percent had an intention to do that. In relation to the route of being aware of it, 30.0 percent knew about that through television or ads.
2. As for awareness of how to take care of implant, 67.3 percent didn't know about that. In regard to the best way for implant care, 51.5 percent viewed regular dental checkup as the best way, and 37.5 percent emphasized the right toothbrushing.
3. Concerning the most important thing for implant surgery, 49.7 percent put stress on the surgical skills of dentists.
4. As to the relationship between demographic characteristics and awareness of implant treatment, there were statistically significant differences in that aspect according to gender (p<0.01) and academic credential (p<0.01). Regarding the relationship between demographic characteristics and awareness of the method of implant care, gender (p<0.01) and age (p<0.01) made a statistically significant difference to that.
5. In relation to outlook on factors affecting implant treatment by gender, the women scored higher than the men. The two groups had significantly different opinions on whether the results of surgery might depend on oral health state (p<0.01), whether implant surgery should be followed by special care (p<0.01), whether scaling would be of use for implant care (p<0.05) and whether the use of oral hygiene supplies would be helpful (p<0.01).
