Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the state of oral health care among elderly people in some local communities in an effort to improve the efficiency of the elderly population's oral health care and oral health care planning in today's aging society.
Method: The subjects in this study were senior citizens who resided in the Gun of Y, Gyeonggi Province. A survey was conducted from April 6 to 17, 2009. Out of 274 respondents, the answer sheets from 238 participants were analyzed.
Results: Gender and age made no significant differences to a daily mean toothbrushing frequency.
By academic credential, however, higher education led to a larger daily mean toothbrushing frequency(p<0.05), and that significantly differed with occupation as well(p<0.05). The average length of toothbrushing time significantly varied with gender only(p<0.05), and age, academic background and occupation made no significant differences to that.
A toothbrushing method was significantly different just according to academic credential(p<0.05), and gender, age and occupation made no significant differences to that. There was no significant gap in tongue cleaning according to gender, but age, academic background and occupation made significant differences to that(p<0.05).
Conclusion: In order to ensure the right oral health care of the elderly population in aging society, the development of effective oral health care programs tailored to their demographic characteristics and the unique features of their local communities is required.
