The purpose of this study was to provide basic data for the continuous oral health management of university students by analyzing the influence of oral health beliefs on scaling behavior of 333 college students in Gwangju and Chonnam area. As follows. 1. The importance of oral health beliefs was found to be higher in women over 20 years old (p=0.001), in 4th grade (p=0.009), in women (p<0.001) (p=0,022), indicating a statistically significant difference. The benefit was highest in children aged 20 years or older (p=0.005) and fourth grade (p=0.006). 2. Sensitivity, severity, and disability of oral health beliefs were high (p<0.001) when the perceived subjective health status was bad (p=0.001) Respectively. (P=0.006), oral health education experience (p=0.006), scaling experience (p=0.006), and subjective oral health status (p=0.041) Respectively. 3. Subjective oral health perception was positively correlated with severity, severity, and disability (p<0.001). 4. As the perceived sensitivity of oral care products increased by one unit, the probability of using oral care products decreased 0.511 times (p<0.05), and the importance and importance of the oral care aids increased 1.689 times (p=0.034) And 1.621 times (p=0.047), respectively. 5. As a factor affecting the scaling experience, the probability of scaling increased 1.637 times (p=0.047). In conclusion, it is necessary to improve the awareness of the prevention goal scaling which is implemented from July, 2013 for college students, and to make the oral health care properly by reflecting the results of oral health beliefs.
