A STUDY ON THE VARIATIONS OF THE SOFT TISSUE PROFILE CONTOUR IN RELATION TO THE SKELETAL PATTERNS

악안면 유형에 따른 측모 연조직 양상에 대한 연구

The purpose of this study was to investigate the variations of the soft tissue profile contour in relation to the skeletal patterns and to confirm the correlation of soft tissue angles to the sagittal or vertical skeletal elements. Lateral cephalograms of 79 cases which were older than 17 years in age, were traced and statistically analyzed. The obtained results were as follows : 1. Nasolabial, interlabial, lower lip, mentolabial, and symphyseal angles showed the significant differences between skeletal Class II and skeletal. Class III group, but nasofrontal, upper lip, mentolabial, and symphyseal angles showed the significant differences between high angle and low angle group. 2. ANB value showed the significant positive correlation to nasolabial, symphyseal, and interlabial angles and the significant negative relation to lower lip angle. 3. SN-GoMe value showed the significant positive correlation to mentolabial, symphyseal, nasofrontal, and upper lip angles. 4. Soft tissue profile contour in SK. Class II group showed greater accordance to SN-GoMe value than those in SK. Class III group.

본 연구의 목적은 악안면유형에 따라 측모 연조직 양상에 차이가 있는지를 알아보고자 17세 이상의 연령을 가진 다양한 수직적 양상을 보이는 II급 및 III급 남,녀 79명을 선택하여 각 계측치를 계측하고 통계 처리하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. Nasolabial angle, interlabial angle, lower lip angle, mentolabial angle, symphyseal angle이 골격성 II급군과 III급군간에 유의한 차이를 보였고, nasofrontal angle, upper lip angle, mentolabial angle, symphyseal angle이 high angle군과 low angle군간에 유의한 차이를 보였다. 2. 악골의 시상적관계를 나타내는 ANB값이 연조직의 nasolabial angle, symphyseal angle, interlabial angle과 정상관 관계를 보였고, lower lip angle과는 역상관 관계를 보였다. 3. 악골의 수직적관계를 나타내는 SN-GoMe값은 연조직의 mentolabial angle, symphyseal angle, nasofrontal angle, upper lip angle과 정상관 관계를 보였다. 4. 골격성 III급군에 비해 II급군에서 SN-GoMe값에 따른 측모연조직 양상의 차이가 현저하였다.
