The purpose of this study was to establish regression equations and probability charts for predicting the sum of mesiodistal crown diameters of unerupted unilateral canine and premolars from the sum of mesiodistal crown diameters of four mandibular incisors in Korean male and female. The plaster casts of 162 children(75 boys and 87 girls) among the contestees in 1994-2001 Healthy Dentition Contest in Seoul were measured. Sex differences are compared and the following results were obtained: 1. Bilateral comparison of sum of widths of permanent canine and premolars showed no significant differences for either sex(p>0.05). Sum of widths of permanent canine and premolars of male were significantly larger than that of female(p<0.01). 2. Regression equations for the prediction of sum of widths of permanent canine and premolars in each sex were as follows Male ${\Sigma}Maxillary$ 345 y= 10.45+0.53x Male ${\Sigma}Mandibular$ 345 : y= 10.07+0.51x Female ${\Sigma}Maxillary$ 345 : y=12.65+0.42x Female ${\Sigma}Mandibular$ 345 : y=11.70+0.42x Male+female ${\Sigma}Maxillary$ 345 y=11.01+0.50x Male+female ${\Sigma}Mandibular$ 345 : y=9.87+0.51x

This case report describes the treatment of an impacted tooth in relation to pediatric mandibular fracture. A 10-rear-old girl presented with au impacted mandibular canine related with a miniplate in the left mandibular body area. An ordinary surgical traction ended in failure. Good occlusion was established by removal of the miniplate. It would be considered important to make an exact diagnosis of the cause and remove the mechanical obstruction instantly for successful orthodontic treatment of an impacted tooth.

Transposition has been described as an interchange of position of permanent tooth and is a relatively rare dental anomaly. Transposition of teeth may occur both in the maxillary and mandibular arches. but it appears more often in the maxilla of individual teeth, the maxillary canine is the most often involved. A canine transposes most often with a first premolar and less frequently transposes with a lateral incisor. Incomplete transposition is a condition describing an interchange in the position of the crowns of two permanent teeth, while the root apices remain in their relative position. Complete transposition is a situation in which both the crowns and entire root structure are transposed. The etiologic factors of transposition are tooth buds interchange, retained deciduous canines, migration of the erupting canine, trauma to deciduous teeth etc. This report describes a case of a transposition between a maxillary left canine and a lateral incisor and impaction of a maxillary left central incisor due to trauma to deciduous dentition.

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the status of a unilateral palatally impacted maxillary canine (as seen on the panoramic radiograph) and the orthodontic treatment duration. Methods: A total of 36 subjects were chosen (8 males and 28 females, $13.7{\pm}2.5$ years). All patients had undergone orthodontic traction of the impacted canine after a closed flap surgery. The position of impacted canine on the panoramic radiograph was traced and calculated with regard to the treatment duration. Results: The canine overlap over the lateral incisor (COGr) had significant statistical difference between the short-term and the long-term treatment duration groups (divided by average treatment time of 21 months) (p<0.05). Multiple regression indicated that the variables of significance (with treatment duration as the dependent variable) were the canine vertical height from the occlusal plane $(HCV,\;r^2=0.115;\;p<0.05)$ and the mandibular anterior width $(MnDW,\;r^2=0.142;\;p<0.05)$. The treatment duration, the canine angle to the incisor midline (CA), and HCV decreased from primary dentition (under 12 yrs) to permanent dentition (15 yrs). Howerer, these increased again at the adolescent ages (over 16 yrs). Conclusion: These findings suggested that orthodontic treatment of a palatally impacted canine would show good prognosis at an age of early permanent dentition with the canine showing smaller CA and HCV.

Normal eruption of the canine is important for the transition to the permanent dentition. Etiologies, including premature loss or delayed retention of deciduous teeth, neoplasm and abnormality of lateral incisor can cause impaction of the maxillary canine. Untreated canine impaction can result in malocclusion, cyst formation and obstacles in orthodontic treatment. The aim of this study is to evaluate location of the impacted maxillary canine and to identify correlation between location and management of the impaction including complications. Using panoramic radiographs and CBCT scan, images of 89 children diagnosed with impaction of the maxillary canine, location of impacted canines was evaluated. The choice of treatment and complications were investigated to identify correlation. Results show that the most commonly impacted location of the maxillary canine was in the mid-alveolar area, followed by buccal side and palatal side. Orthodontic traction was selected more frequently than the other treatments. As complications, displacement of adjacent tooth was occurred most frequently. Buccally impacted canines showed increased tendency towards displacement. The more buccally the canine was impacted, the less orthodontic traction was chosen as the treatment. The canine impacted mesially to the central incisor showed increased tendency to occur root resorption. Therefore, early diagnosis by periodic examination, appropriate treatment and intervention is required.

수의치과 임상에서 대부분 발치기구로는 발치포셉과 엘리베이터만 가지고 발치를 하였습니다. 발치포셉과 엘리베이터의 종류를 늘리는 것보다 럭세이터, 루트익스트렉팅포셉, 루트피커, 페리오톰, canine luxator를 구비해서 각각의 용도에 맞추어 기구를 사용해야한다는 것이 키포인트입니다. 아울러 치주인대의 2/3를 럭세이터, 페리오돔, canine luxator로 제거하고${\ldots}$ 엘리베이터를 이용해서 견인하고, 치아를 살짝 집어서 빼주는 것은 발치포셉의 역할임을 잊지말고, 루트가 부러졌을때는 루트피커와 루트익스트렉팅포셉을 이용하는것이 팁입니다.

Transposition is a unique and extreme form of ectopic eruption where a tooth develops and erupts in a position, normally occupied by an adjacent tooth. Generally, three treatment options are available when the maxillary canine and first premolar are transposed. In the first treatment option, the transposed position of the teeth can be maintained such that the first premolar is moved to the position of the canine. Second, extraction of the maxillary first premolar can be considered. Third, the position of the transposed teeth can be corrected such that their normal positions in the arch are restored. Factors that should be considered in treatment modality decision include function, occlusion, periodontal support, treatment time, patient cooperation, and esthetic demands. This report describes cases of maxillary canine-premolar transposition treated with each of the three aforementioned treatment options. In the first case, transposed teeth were arranged in their transposed position. The second case was an extraction case. In the third case, orthodontic treatment and surgical repositioning were conducted.
