Oracle comes with the dbshut and the dbstart script for this purpose in $ORACLE_HOME/bin.
You are expected to copy those (officially root.sh should do this, but I never see this happen) to you local bin directory, usually /usr/local/bin. You should also have the dbhome and the oraenv script in that directory. These issues are discussed in the installation documentation.
