This study selected 582 senior citizens who used 6 senior welfare centers in 7 districts, Daegu and analyzed questionnaires for them from January 9 through June 5, 2013 in order to look into their subjective oral health, social efficacy and quality of life according to their subjective cognition of oral health and their quality of life related to oral health according to sociodemographic characteristics and drew the following conclusions: Sex was statistically significant in toothache and xerostomia; age, in oral health, dysmasesis, toothache, periodontal complications and xerostomia; the level of education, in oral health, dysmasesis, toothache and periodontal complications; and the number of family members living together, in dysmasesis, toothache, periodontal complications, xerostomia and halitosis. Their responses to the question about their social efficacy according to oral health included: 'My oral health is not good' 3.11 points; and 'My jaw crackles or hurts' 1.99 points. In social efficacy according to their cognition of oral health, their health was 2.05 points while in the quality of life, their health was 3.41 points. In the scores of the quality of life related to oral health, for their health, functional limitation was 2.13 points; physical pain, 2.53; psychological discomfort, 2.17; physical limitation, 2.31; degradation of psychological ability, 2.06; degradation of social ability, 1.81; and social disadvantage, 1.99.

본 연구는 인구사회학적 특성에 따른 주관적인 구강건강상태와 주관적인 구강건강상태인식에 따른 사회적 효능감과 삶의 질, 구강건강 관련 삶의 질을 알아보고자, 2013년 1월 9일부터 2013년 6월 5일까지 대구광역시 7개의 구에 있는 6개의 노인복지관을 이용하는 노인 582명의 설문지를 분석하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 성별은 치통과 구강건조증, 연령층별은 구강건강상태, 음식저작 장애, 치주문제, 구강건조증, 최종학력에서는 구강건강상태, 음식저작 장애, 치통, 치주문제, 동거가족 수에서는 음식저작 장애, 치통, 치주문제, 구강건조증, 구취에서 통계적으로 유의하였다. 구강건강상태에 따른 사회적 효능감 항목에서 '나의 구강은 건강하지 않다'가 3.11점이었고, '나는 턱에서 소리가 나거나 아프다'가 1.99점이었다. 구강건강상태 인식에 따른 사회적 효능감에서 건강은 2.05점, 삶의 질에서 건강은 3.41점이었다. 구강건강관련 삶의 질 점수에서 건강의 경우 기능적 제한은 2.13점, 신체적 동통은 2.53점, 심리적 불편은 2.17점, 신체적 제한은 2.31점, 심리적 능력저하는 2.06점, 사회적 능력저하는 1.81점, 사회적 불리는 1.99점이었다. 노인구강건강증진을 위한 지속적인 구강보건교육의 기회제공과 예방프로그램의 개발을 통하여 구강건강이 진행되지 않도록 적극적인 방안모색이 충분히 고려될 때 노인의 구강건강 뿐만 아니라 삶의 질까지 향상될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
