본 연구는 노인의 구강 건강 향상의 방안으로 구강운동프로그램을 47명에 대하여 시행하여 39명의 대조군과 비교하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 타액분비량은 실험군이 0.075 ml로 대조군 0.046 ml 보다 0.029 ml 증가하여 구강운동으로 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 2. 최대 개구량은 실험군이 4.12 cm로 대조군 3.92 cm 보다 0.20 cm 증가하여 구강운동으로 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 3. 구강 교호 운동량은 실험군이 초당 1.69회에서 초당 2.03회보다 0.34회 증가하여, 구강운동으로 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이 결과 구강운동이 노인의 구강건강 뿐만 아니라 추후 구강운동을 고령화 시대 노인의 건강 증진 방안의 일환으로 적극 활용할 수 있도록 해야 할 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of a mouth excercise program on the promotion of oral function of old people. Forty seven old persons who conducted a mouth excercise exercise two times every week for 12 weeks in the experimental group were compared with the control group of 39 old persons using physical examinations. The results were as follows; In virtue of this exercise the salivary flow was increased 0.029 ml in the experimental group more than 0.046 ml in the control group. Maximum mouth opening in the experimental group was 4.12 cm and higher than 3.92 cm in the control. Also Oral diadochokinesis was 1.69 times per second in experimental group and more than 1.65 in the control group. Based on the above results, it is concluded that the mouth excercise had good effects on promoting oral health. Some movements of the mouth excercise exercise need be modified, and then the exercise should be publicized as one of the ways to improve wholistic health of the aged.
