초록

발음장애, 구토감 및 착용 불편감과 같은 보정장치에 대해 환자가 느끼는 불편감을 평가해보기 위해 고정식 교정장치로 교정치료를 받고 교정장치가 제거된 66명(남자 23명, 여자 43명; 평균연령 $23.42{\pm}10.19$)의 교정환자를 대상으로 무작위로 두 군으로 배정한 후 고정식 교정장치를 제거한 다음 날 CWR 장착군에게는 구개를 완전히 덮는 구개 완전 피개형 보정장치인 conventional wraparound retainer (CWR)를 장착시키고 CCR 장착군에게는 구개를 말 발굽 모양으로 부분 피개하는 보정장치인 circumferential comfortable retainer (CCR)를 4주 동안 장착시킨 후 발음장애, 구토감 및 착용 불편감의 정도에 대해 100-mm visual analog scale (VAS)로 표시할 수 있도록 제작된 설문지를 통해 얻은 점수에 대해 통계적으로 비교 분석하였다. 연구결과 발음장애와 착용 불편감의 비교에서 CCR 장착군이 CWR 장착군에 비해 통계적으로 유의하게 낮았다 ($p$ < 0.05). 구토감의 비교에서는 CCR 장착군이 CWR 장착군에 비해 낮은 점수를 보였지만 통계적으로는 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다 ($p$ = 0.146). 이상의 연구 결과로 circumferential comfortable retainer (CCR)는 발음장애를 감소시키고, 착용 불편감을 완화시킴으로써 환자의 협조도를 증진시켜줄 수 있는바 고정식 교정장치를 이용한 교정치료 후 치료결과 유지에 도움이 될 수 있음을 시사하였다.

Objective: The aim of this study was to illustrate the circumferential comfortable retainer (CCR) as a removable maxillary retainer with good potential patient compliance and to evaluate the discomfort of the retainers including distorted speech, gagging sensation and appliance discomfort. Methods: Sixty-six orthodontic patients (male, 23; female, 43; mean age, $23.42{\pm}10.19$ years) who received orthodontic treatment with fixed orthodontic appliances were randomly assigned to two groups after debonding, a conventional wraparound retainer (CWR) group that fully covers the palate with an acrylic plate and a highly polished surface, and a circumferential comfortable retainer (CCR) group which has a horseshoe shaped base plate with three folds on the anterior region. A questionnaire that had a visual analog scale (VAS) which consists of a 100-mm horizontal line with 2 end-points labeled "no discomfort" on the left and "worst discomfort" on the right, with regard to distorted speech, gagging sensation and discomfort, was administered to patients after 4 weeks of retainer wear. The Mann-Whitney test was used to test the hypothesis that there was no difference between the two retainers. Results: Comparing distorted speech and discomfort, the CCR group significantly had lower values than the CWR group ($p$ < 0.05). Comparing gagging sensation, the CCR group had lower values than the CWR group but there were no statistically significant differences between groups ($p$ = 0.146). Conclusions: In conclusion, the results suggest that the circumferential comfortable retainer (CCR) might facilitate patient compliance and thereby improve the maintenance of the fixed orthodontic treatment outcome.
