초록

The purpose of this study was to analyze the reasons and mean age for tooth extraction among patients living
in Busan city. The researcher observed 1,119 patients’ teeth extracted due to dental caries, periodontal disease and other
reasons. This study examined the reasons for tooth extraction by age, sex, and tooth-kind. The reasons for tooth extraction
were dental caries, periodontal disease, eruption problems and others. The obtained results were as follows; 1. Among the
reasons for tooth extraction, dental caries accounted for 25.9%, periodontal disease 56.5%. 2. Periodontal disease was the
main reason for tooth extraction and continued throughout life irrespective of sex. However dental caries was remarkably
increasing in those aged 30 years old and under. 3. In the extraction of permanent teeth, males outnumbered females
while upper teeth did lower teeth. 4. Although the third molars were most extracted in all kinds of teeth, the main reasons
for the extraction were eruption problem. 5. The mean age of the tooth extracted was 47.9 years in both sexes for the
mandibular first molars and the mandibular first molars had the shortest life except third molars of total teeth. The
mandibular canines had the longest life of total teeth. Because dental caries and periodontal disease are the main causes
of tooth extraction in Korea, the dental health policy should be focused on the prevention and treatment of these two
diseases in the government level.
