Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the Bonwill triangle of Korean using the cone beam computerized tomography (Cone-beam CT). Materials and Methods: 120 Koreans (60 males and 60 females) who visited Daejeon Dental College Hospital of Wonkwang University and who underwent the Cone-beam CT were selected. The Cone-beam CT images were analysed with Invivo 5.1 (Anatomage, San Jose, USA). After reorientation of axis, the intercondylar distance was measured by clicking both middle points of condyle. And the condyle-incisor distance was measured by clicking the middle point of condyle and contact point of the mandibular central incisor's incisal edge. The collected data were analysed using the SPSS Version 23.0 (IBM Inc., Armonk, USA) and statistical significance was verified by gender using independent t-test. Results: The mean intercondylar distance of Korean was 105.9 mm, and the male (108.3 mm) was statistically significantly larger than the female (103.4 mm). The mean condyle-incisor distance of Korean was 105.2 mm, and the male (108.1 mm) was statistically significantly larger than the female (102.3 mm). Conclusion: The mean intercondylar distance of Korean in this study was 105.9 mm that was smaller than well-known 110 mm of Caucasian and the male was statistically significantly larger than the female. Within the limitations of this study, it would be necessary to use the articulator which can adjust the intercondylar distance according to the individual for prosthodontic treatment of Korean.

목적: 본 연구의 목적은 콘빔형 전산화단층영상(cone-beam computerized tomography)을 이용하여 한국인의 본윌 삼각을 평가함으로써 그간 서양인을 기준으로 제시된 본윌 삼각 관련 수치와 비교하기 위함이다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 원광대학교 치과대학 대전치과병원에 내원하여 Cone-beam CT를 촬영한 환자 중, 본 연구의 기준에 적합한 한국인 120명(남성 60명, 여성 60명)이 선택되었으며 Invivo 5.1 (Anatomage, San Jose, USA)가 Cone-beam CT scan을 분석하기 위해 사용되었다. 축의 방향설정을 시행한 후, 과두간 거리는 각 과두의 중심점을 지정하여 측정하였으며, 과두-절치간 거리는 과두 중심점과 하악 양 중절치 절단연의 접촉점을 지정하여 측정하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS Version 23.0 (IBM Inc., Armonk, USA)을 이용하여 분석하였고, independent t-test를 이용하여 성별에 따른 통계적 유의성을 검증하였다. 결과: 한국인의 평균 과두간 거리는 105.9 mm였으며, 남성(108.3 mm)이 여성(103.4 mm)에 비해 통계학적으로 유의하게 크게 나타났다. 한국인의 평균 과두-절치간 거리는 105.2 mm였으며, 남성(108.1 mm)이 여성(102.3 mm)에 비해 통계학적으로 유의하게 크게 나타났다. 결론: 본 연구에서 측정된 한국인의 과두간 거리는 105.9 mm로 서양인을 대상으로 제시된 110 mm에 비해 작은 값을 보였으며, 남성이 여성에 비해 통계학적으로 유의하게 크게 나타났다. 본 제한된 연구 결과를 근거로 한국인의 보철적 수복 시 과두간 거리를 좀 더 개인에 맞게 조절할 수 있는 교합기 사용이 필요하다고 사료된다.
