Abstract

The aim of this study was to assess the occlusal relationships of primary dentition of Korean preschool children in Hwaseong city. Total 444 children of age group between 2 and 5 years were selected. One pediatric dentist took intraoral photos of children. Evaluation and categorization of the primary molar relationships were done by single examiner. Statistical analysis was performed with Pearson chi-squared test. Total 389 samples, which is consisted of 185 boys, 204 girls were satisfied with inclusion criteria. Bilateral mesial step was seen in 61.7%. Bilateral flush terminal plane was seen in 15.4%. When the primary molar relations of the right and left sides were not the same, the combination of the mesial step and flush terminal plane was 14.7%. The present study provides insight into occlusal relationships in the primary dentition of 2 - 5 years old of Korean children in Hwaseong city. Pediatric dentists should understand occlusal relationships of primary dentition for establishment of appropriate treatment strategies and occlusal guidance.

유치열기 어린이의 교합적 특성에 대해 국외에서는 관련 연구가 많이 보고되었으나 최근 한국 어린이를 대상으로 한 연구보고는 희소하며 서로 다른 인종 간에 교합양상에 차이가 있다. 따라서 이 연구 논문의 목적은 경기도 화성시에 거주하는 한국 어린이의 유구치 교합관계에 대해 알아보고자 함이다. 한 명의 소아치과 전문의가 치과의원에 내원한 만 2 - 5세 유치열기 어린이들의 구강 내 임상 사진을 촬영하였다. 한 명의 평가자가 유구치 교합관계를 평가 및 분류하였으며 성별, 연령 등의 환자 정보를 기록하였다. 총 389명에서 좌우측의 교합관계가 동일하게 근심계단형인 경우가 61.7%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 양측 모두 수직형인 경우는 15.4%, 원심계단형인 경우는 4.9%로 나타났다. 좌우측의 교합관계가 동일하지 않은 경우 근심계단형과 수직형의 조합이 14.7%로 높은 빈도로 나타났다. 모집단 일부에서는 유견치 관계를 분류할 수 있었고 좌우측 동일하게 1급 유견치 관계인 경우가 48.2%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 유구치 교합관계는 영구치열기로의 변화를 예측할 수 있도록 하여 적절한 치료 전략을 수립하거나 교합유도를 시행할 수 있도록 한다. 따라서 소아치과의사의 유치열기 교합에 대한 정확한 이해와 최근 경향에 대한 파악이 중요하다.
