Abstract

This study was conducted to analyze the relationship between smoking and periodontal disease in adults living in Taean, Chungcheongnam-do, some rural areas, to provide basic data for improving the oral health of smokers in the future. During the study period, a self-written questionnaire survey was conducted from January to July 2024, and the survey method was distributed and collected using collective surveys, distribution surveys, and mail-in, and 225 copies were finally analyzed. For data analysis, reliability tests were performed to find out the internal consistency of the attributes of subjective periodontal disease symptoms using SPSS/Win 25.0, frequency analysis was performed for general characteristics and smoking behavior, and x2-test was performed for periodontal disease according to general characteristics and smoking behavior. Regression analysis was conducted to find out the relationship between smoking behavior and periodontal condition, and multiple regression analysis was conducted to identify the factors that the sub-factors of subjective periodontal disease symptoms affect smoking behavior areas. As for the gender, males were somewhat larger, distribution by age group was 40-59, and high school graduation accounted for a high proportion of education levels. The higher the age, the higher the periodontal disease, the higher the periodontal disease in high school graduation, the higher the health status, the higher the periodontal health, the higher the normal, bad, and the higher the frequency of drinking, the higher the periodontal disease. In the presence or absence of smoking, the periodontal disease was high in the presence or absence of smoking, and the periodontal health of not smoking was high in the case of past smoking experience. In terms of the amount of smoking, less than 10 cigarettes, 11-20 cigarettes, and 21 cigarettes or more had high periodontal disease, and the periodontal disease was high in all less than 1 year to 3 years, 4 to 6 years, and 6 years or more. In terms of the relationship between smoking behavior and periodontal condition, the risk of having periodontal disease was 2.785 times in the case of smoking or not, 2.513 times in the case of 11 to 20 cigarettes, and 2.746 times in the case of smoking period. Among the sub-factors of subjective periodontal disease symptoms, gum pain, gingival bleeding, gingival swelling, tooth discoloration, and bad breath were found to have a significant effect, and the better the gum pain, gingival bleeding, tooth discoloration, and bad breath, the lower the smoking behavior. For oral health management and prevention, it is necessary to be more aware of oral diseases caused by smoking along with regular checkups and continuous management. In particular, education on the harmfulness of smoking and prevention and management of periodontal diseases are considered necessary to prevent periodontal diseases.
