Abstract
Objectives. The purpose of this study was to investigate the awareness of dental hygienists about the quality assurance of radiation and activities to improve and ensure radiograph quality.
Methods. A self-administered questionnaire was implemented among 205 dental hygienists who worked at general hospitals, dental offices, and dental clinics in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province from September to October, 2009.
Results. The hygienists scored a mean of 7.0±2.22 out of 15 for knowledge of quality control in radiation. For attitude to quality control, they got 75.5 out of 100 points. Quality assurance behavior, scored 41.9 out of 100 points. Dental hygienists with extra education on quality assurance (p=0.001) and were better at it (p=0.003) had a better knowledge score, and those with higher self-rated quality assurance (p=0.006) and those with higher knowledge score (p＜.0001) showed a more positive attitude toward quality control.
Conclusions. Boosting radiation quality assurance among dental hygienists requires programs to improve, knowledge and incentives to focus attention on quality control and job performance.
