Purpose: This study evaluated the postoperative stability of counter clockwise rotation of the mandibular plane in anterior openbite patients, who have had one jaw surgery performed. Methods: This study includes patients with skeletal class III malocclusion accompanied by anterior openbite among the patients who have had BSSRO performed, resulting in counter clockwise rotation of the mandibule. We excluded the patients with genioplasty and segmental surgery, and included 23 patients who underwent BSSRO. Results: We found no statistical significance between the amount of counter clockwise rotation in the mandible in the Pearson correlation test. Also, there was no significant difference between Group 1 (< $3^{\circ}$) and Group 2 (> $3^{\circ}$). Conclusion: This study evaluated the amount of horizontal relapse, and the degree of relapse. Stable results were obtained. Although there was no statistical significance between the degree of openbite and the amount of horizontal relapse, the group with a greater amount of openbite had a greater amount of relapse.

This study was made with lateral cephalometric radiography of 28 skeletal class III malocclusion patients that were performed to setback surgery of mandible. The 28 patients were selected by four standards as follows. 1) Set-back amount of mandible is below 10 mm 2) No extrusion and intrusion of posterior tooth or alteration of interincisial angle at period of postoperative orthodontic treatment. 3) Change of mesial segment location of mandible on lateral cephalometrics 4) No genioplasty And 28 patients were divided to three group(1,2,3 group) by degree of preoperative occlusal plane angle to Burstone's horizontal plane. The preoperative occlusal plane angle, which of 1 group was smaller than $7^{\circ}$ and 2 group was between $7^{\circ}$ to $15^{\circ}$ and 3 group was larger than $15^{\circ}$. The results were as follows : 1. As the preoperative occlusal plane angle was larger, the degree of mandibular prognathism was not severe. 2. On comparsion of preoperative and immediate postoperative cephalometric analysis, specific relationship of occlusal plane angle and set-back amount of mandible was not present. 3. As the preoperative occlusal plane angle was smaller, the alteration of postoperative occlusal plane angle was increased tendency. As the preoperative occlusal plane angle was larger, the alteration of postoperative occlusal plane angle was decreased tendency. 4. The relapsed degree of B point distance to Vertical plane was not relationship to the degree of preoperative occlusal plane angle.

Activator는 성장기 아동에서 치성 및 악골 부조화를 개선하기 위해 성장을 이용하여 치료하는 악기능장치중 대표적인 것으로 1930년대부터 오랜 역사를 가지고 사용되고 있지만 아직까지도 그 사용여부, 작용방법, 효과에 향을 주어 골격적 관계를 변화시킨다는 의견도 있다. 현재에는 많은 논란에도 불구하고 기능성 장치가 성장중이고 협조적인 환자에서 2급 관계를 성공적으로 치료할 수 있다는 사실에 대부분 의견을 공유하고있다. 본 연구는 하악골의 후방 변위를 보이는 Angle씨 2급 1류 부정교합 환자에서 많이 사용되고 있는 activator를 그 사용 목적에 따라 하악골의 수평적 성장을 유도하기 위한 horizontal type activator와 수평적 성장과 함께 수직적 성장도 유도하기 위한 vertical type activator로 분류하여 사용한 결과 나타나는 치료 효과의 차이를 비교 연구하고, 각 군내의 남여군간에 치료 효과나 성장 양상에 차이가 있는지를 알아보기 위하여 시행하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. Horizontal type activator를 사용한 군의 치료 전후 비교시 하악의 전방위치와 LAFH, AEH등 안면 전방부의 수직적 증가가 관찰되었다. 2. Horizontal type activator를 사용한 군의 남자군에서는 두개저에 대한 하악의 길이 증가를 동반한 상악의 후방위치가 관찰되었으며, 여자군에서는 하악의 길이 증가뿐만 아니라 하악전치의 순측 경사와 하안면 고경의 증가가 관찰되었다. 3. Vertical type activator를 사용한 군의 치료 전후 비교시 전안면고경, 전하안면고경, 후안면고경, 후하안면 고경의 증가와 함께 두개저에 대한 하악의 길이 증가가 두드러졌다. 4. Vertical type activator를 사용한 남자군에서는 하악의 길이 증가뿐만 아니라 전안면 고경과 후안면고경의 증가가 관찰되었으나, 여자군에서는 전안면 고경의 증가만 주로 관찰되었다. 5. Horizontal type activator 와 Vertical type activator를 사용한 군들의 치료 전후 비교시 치료전에는 골격적 차이를 나타내었으나 치료후에는 치성관계에서만 차이를 나타내어 서로 다른 activator의 사용이 주로 치성 성분에 대한 효과에만 차이를 나타낸다고 사료된다. 6. 치료전에는 차이가 없던 남,여군 사이에 치료후에 차이가 나타나는 것은 치료 효과에 관계없이 남여에 따른 성장양상의 차이가 그대로 표현된 것으로 사료된다. 연구는 거대 편도를 가진 기능성 III급 부정 교합자의 구개 편도 절제술 전후의 인두강, 설골, 두부 위치의 변화 양상에 대해 알아보기 위해 단국 대학교 부속 치과 병원 교정과에 내원한 남녀 환자 42명을 대상으로 연구하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the appropriate degree of set-back of the mandible by evaluating the rate of relapse after surgery. Methods: Among the patients who visited our hospital from January 2002 to January 2007 and who underwent orthognathic surgery, of the patients available for follow-up observation, the rate of relapse after surgery was investigated according to the set-back degree. The patients were divided into groups by the degree of set-back, and relapse was evaluated by the radiographs performed the day after surgery, 6 months after surgery, 1 year after surgery, 2 years after surgery and 3 years after surgery. Results: In cases that exceeded the limit of posterior movement of the mandible (13 mm) or that had the wrong position of the condyle, a greater tendency toward relapse was shown. Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, among the cases that required a large amount of posterior movement of the mandible, two jaw surgeries accompanied by bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO) and LeFort I osteotomy are recommended.

The goal of this study is the comparison of upper airway size and change of skeletal Class I group and skeletal Class III group (before operation, within 2 weeks after operation, 6 months after operation) respectively. At first, we measured the lines between selected upper air way landmarks on lateral cephalometric x-ray film of skeletal Class I 40 persons whoes age were 23-26 years old, ,and did the same lines of landmarks of skeletal Class III 44 persons who had not been operated yet, were within 2 weeks after operation, were 6 months after operation. And we compared it respectively and analyzed it with paired t-test. We studied the relationship of those on produced data. 1. Skeletal Class III group was narrower in nasopharyngeal air way space than that of skeletal Class I group, and increased in thickness of oropharyngeal, hypopharyngeal wall within 2 weeks after operation, and reduced in nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal air way space, and did in thickness of nasopharngeal, hypopharyngeal wall 6 months after operation. 2. Skeletal Class III group reduced in nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal air way space, and increased in thickness of nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal, hypopharyngeal wall within 2 weeks after operation, restored the thickness of nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal wall, but did not restored nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal, hypopharyngeal air way space. 3. Vertical length from hyoid bone to mandibular plane did not have signifacant difference from Class I group but after operation, it increased more than Class I group significantly. 4. The size of airway reduced after operation. Among this, oropharyngeal airway most reduced.

Purpose: The aim of this study is the changes of upper respiratory airway space in patients with mandibular prognathism after 2-jaw orthognathic surgery in patients with skeletal classs III malocclusion. Method: We measured the lines between selected upper airway landmarks on lateral cephalometric x-ray films of skeletal class III 64 persons who had not been operated yet, were 6 months after operation. The test subjects were divided into 3 groups according to maxillary movement, as follows; maxillary advancement (MA) group, maxillary posterior impaction (MPI) group, maxillary posterior impaction and superior repositioning (MPI+MSR) group. Result: In this study, nasopharyngeal airway space in MPI+MSR group was significantly increased after operation (p<0.05). Oropharygeal and hypopharyngeal airway space in MA group and MPI group were significantly decreased after operation (p<0.05). From hyoid bone to anterior mandible point distance in MA group and MPI group were significantly decreased after operation (p<0.05). Conclusion: Oropharygeal and hypopharyngeal airway space were influenced more by mandibular set-back than maxillary movement. Maxillary movement surgery as well as mandibular setback surgery should be taken into consideration in order to minimize symptoms related to obstructive sleep apnea syndrome after operation.

After orthognathic surgery in skeletal class III patients, the hyoid bone position and the upper airway dimension could be changed due to mandibular setback. There has been many studies about airway dimension of the patients with skeletal class II malocclusion or obstructive sleep apnea. but not with skeletal class III. The purpose of this study was to examine the change of position of the hyoid bone and the consequent change of airway space as the result of retrusion of mandible after orthognathic surgery in skeletal Cl III malocclusion patients. It is also to apply this results in predicting, diagnosing and treating the subsequent obstructive sleep apnea. Forty patients who were diagnosed as skeletal Cl III maloccusion, received orthoganthic surgery of both jaws including mandibular setback, and were followed up post-operatively for more than 6 months were selected. There were 10 male patients 30 female patients. The preoperative and postoperative lateral cephalograms were traced and the distances and angles were measured. The nasopharyngeal space increased postoperatively while the oropharyngeal space decreased. Except for the change of oroparyngeal space, the changes in male patients were greater than female patients. The hyoid bone moved in the posterior-inferior direction, and the change was greater in males than in females. If the postoperative mandibular setback is great, then a significant decrease of airway space and posterior and inferior movement of the hyoid bone were observed. This can result in symptoms related to obstructive sleep apnea. This result should be considered in the diagnosis and treatment planning of orthognathic surgery patients.

Purpose: This study was performed to evaluate three-dimensional positional change of the condyle using 3D CT after bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO) in skeletal class III patients. Patients and methods: Nine patients who underwent BSSRO for mandibular set-back in skeletal class III malocclusion without facial asymmetry were examined. Miniplates were used for the fixation after BSSRO. 3-D CT was taken before, immediately after, and 6 months after undergoing BSSRO. After creating 3D-CT images using V-works $4.0^{TM}$ program, axial plane, coronal plane, & sagittal plane were configured. Three dimensional positional change, from each plane to the condyle, of the nine patients was measured before, immediately after, and 6 months after undergoing BSSRO. Results: 1. The mean value of mandibular set-back for nine mandibular prognathism patients was 7.36 mm (${\pm}\;2.42\;mm$). 2. In the axial view, condyle is rotated inward immediately after BSSRO (p < 0.05), comparing with preoperative but outward 6 months after BSSRO comparing with postoperative (p < 0.05). 3. In the axial view, condyle is moved laterally immediately after BSSRO (p < 0.05), comparing with preoperative but regressed 6 months after BSSRO comparing with preoperative (p > 0.05). 4. In the frontal & coronal view, there is changed immediately after and 6 months after BSSRO, comparing with preoperative but no statistical difference. Conclusion: These results indicate that three-dimensional positional change of the condyle in skeletal class III patients is observed lateral displacement & inward rotation immediate after BSSRO, but the condyle in 6 months after BSSRO tends to regress to preoperative position.

하악 전돌증의 치료를 위해 외과적인 술식이 교정임상분야에 도입된 이래로 많은 임상적인 성공사례가 보고되어 왔으며 최근에 와서는 하악골 후퇴술의 대표적 술식으로 구내 시상 분할 골절단술(SSRO)과 구내 상행지 수직 골절단술(IVRO)이 주로 시행되고 있다. 물론 이 두가지 술식 모두 만족스러운 술후 결과를 얻을 수 있으나 술후 안정성과 재발의 양상과 정도가 다르게 나타나고 있다. 그러나 하악 후퇴술후 시간경과에 따른 재발의 정도에 관한 국내의 연구는 국외에 비해 다소 부족한 상황이며, 특히 시상 분할 골절단술과 상행지 수직 골절단술후의 재발양상에 관한 비교 연구는 아직 없는 실정이다. 이에 저자는 골격성 III 급 부정교합자의 악교정 수술 후 수술방법에 따른 재발 양상과 장기적 안정성을 알아보고자 구내 시상 분할 골절단술로 시행받은 24명(남자 10명, 여자 14명)과 구내 상행지 수직골절단술로 시행받은 26명 (남자 10명, 여자 16명)의 수술 직전(T1), 수술 직후 48시간 이내(T2), 수술 후 4-8주(T3), 수술후 6개월 이상(T4)등 4장의 측모두부방사선 사진을 계측하여 두 군간의 기간별 재발 양상과 각 군내의 타 변수들과의 상관성에 관해 검증하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 하악골의 수평적인 초기 재발은 시상 분할 골절단술군에서는 전방 이동, 상행지 수직 골절단술군에서는 후방 이동양상을 보였다. 2. 두 군 모두에서 하악골의 수직적인 초기 재발과 후기 재발은 전안면고경이 감소하는 쪽으로 일어났으며 두 군간의 유의차는 없었다. 3. 시상 분할 골절단술군에서 수술시 근심절편의 후방회전이 많을수록 하악골의 수평적인 후기 재발이 더 전방으로 일어났다. 4. 두 군 모두에서 수술시 하악골 후퇴량이 많을수록 하악골의 수평적인 초기 재발이 더 전방으로 일어났다.
