The worlters’ dental utilization rate per year was 5 1.6%. The factors which were related the dental utilization were the age, the education level, and marriage state. If a worlter has a higher age, received higher education, and is married, that worlter tended to use more of the dental service. The ratio of the workers who had
received the oral health education was only about 34.5%, and about 93.9% of workers said that the oral health education was necessary. 64.2% of respondents said that they did not have the oral health education as there had been no chance for it. It appeared that most worlters preferred the lecture as a method of the oral health education, the periodontal disease as a topic, 1 year as the periodic education, and the workplace as a place for the education.
Conclusions: These results show that worlters have high interest in the oral health and think that their level of knowledge on the oral health is low. This means that the oral health education is needed very much, but there are not enough chances to receive this education for worlters. Therefore, the program on the oral health education should be developed more actively.
