The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors affecting the actual condition and effectiveness of orthodontic treatment among some dental hygienists and students. This study was carried out from September to December, 2016 to describe the purpose of the study and the method of writing the questionnaire for some dental hygienists and students. The final 430 sections were analyzed and analyzed using PASW Statistics 18.0. First, the duration of orthodontic treatment was 34.4% for college students, 36.9% for orthodontic treatment for less than 2 ~ 3 years, and 62.3% for internal motivation. The factors affecting the orthodontic treatment effect were the patient's cooperativeness and the hospital's scale was the lowest. The higher the grade level, the more the clinical experience and dental part-time experience were, the higher the correlation between dental specialty and dental hygienist's medical service, education and counseling was .521(P<0.001). The higher the level of cooperation, the higher the grade level, the more dental treatment and orthodontic treatment experience, the lower the level of family co - operation. Therefore, it is important to emphasize the importance of cooperation of orthodontic patients and to develop a strategic program for each individual patient.

최근 의료 분야 소프트웨어가 발전함에 따라 3차원 가상 모델을 이용한 의료 소프트웨어의 개발도 꾸준히 증가하는 추세이다. 치열 교정 분야는 이러한 3차원 가상 모델을 적용할 수 있는 분야 중 하나이다. 치열교정 분야에서는 3차원 가상 모델을 이용하여 부정 교합 환자의 치료 초기부터 끝까지 여러 단계의 치아이동 과정을 제공한다. 치아 이동의 각 단계별로 Stereolithographic Model이 만들어지는데, 이는 투명하고 얇은 Overlay 장치를 제작하는 기초가 된다. 투명한 재질의 Overlay 장치는 심미적이고 사용이 간편하여 많은 환자들이 선호하고 있다. Overlay 장치를 제작하는 시스템을 구축한 회사로는 Invisalign System이 가장 대표적이다. Invisalign System은 미국에 본사를 둔 회사로 한국에 지사를 두고 적극적인 마케팅을 통해 3D 치열 교정 분야의 국내시장을 거의 독점하고 있다. 독점적이다 보니 비용이 다른 교정 치료보다 2배 가까이 들고 있지만, 현재 한국에서는 개발이 적극적으로 이루어지지 않는 실정이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 환자 치아의 정확하고 과학적인 진단자료를 얻어 높은 치료비용에 대한 개선과 치료 전 과정에 대한 시뮬레이션 및 Stereolithographic Model을 미리 환자에게 제공하여 만족도를 높일 수 있는 3D치열 교정 시스템을 제안한다.

Recently in treatment planning for orthognathic surgery, 3-dimensional analysis using CBCT can give more detailed information that cannot be achieved with 2-dimensional cephalograms. Also, laser Scanning and 3D camera can show 3-dimensional information on soft tissue changes as well as hard tissue changes in orthognathic surgery patients. In other words, soft tissue changes in lateral facial area as well as mid facial area can be quantitatively calculated. To bring out the best results from orthognathic surgery, close interaction between orthodontist and oral surgeon is needed and well treated pre-surgical orthodontics can simplify orthognathic surgical plan that also results in good long-term stability. In surgery-first cases, more thoughtful diagnosis and pre-operative preparation will be needed to prevent complicated problems.

The present study surveyed 300 adults who completed orthodontic treatment to determine their oral health-related quality of life and changes in oral health behavior in orthodontic patients. The collected data is analyzed using the spss 22.0 program. Before orthodontic treatment, social factors (4.68) had the lowest associated quality of life score, and after orthodontic treatment, socially related quality of life showed the highest increase at 3.72 points. Changes in oral health behavior showed that many phosphorus scaling increased by 1.28 points after correction compared to before correction. As oral health quality of life and oral health behavior have changed through orthodontic treatment, dental professionals need to take appropriate management of each patient's individual quality through health education. Appropriate management needs to be developed.

This study is aimed at providing the variables associated with adolescent compliance In orthodontic treatment, and identifies the salient predictors of cooperative behaviors over the course of treatment. Orthodontic attitude scale, orthodontic locus of control scale and demographics data were obtained for 60 adolescent orthodontic patients who had been in treatment a minimum of 10 months. This data was then analyzed in relation to their sex, school age and treatment compliance. The following results were obtained. 1. The scoring of external-powerful others-parents, subscale of the Orthodontic Locus of Control scale, found a statistically significant difference between sex differences (p<0.05). The score of boys was higher than that of girls. 2. The external-powerful others-parents score from the Orthodontic Locus of Control scale showed a significantly positive correlation (p<0.05) with the level of compliance. 3. The salient factors associated with compliance were the adolescent patients' own cognition and decisions. 4. There was a statistically significant correlation between the length of treatment and patient compliance (p<0.05). Thus, there was a substantial decrease in the cooperation of orthodontic patients over time. 5. Other independent variables including age, sex, family environment, religion, academic standing, parents' occupation and education, and brushing frequency were investigated and did not yield any significant relationships. Patient compliance is a critical factor in the efficacy of orthodontic treatment. Individuals vary greatly in their perceptions and attitudes of orthodontic treatment, sociodemographic environments and personality characteristics. In assessing the level of compliance attainable by each individual patient it is advisable To pay sufficient attention not only to the technical matters but also to the psychologic aspects of the treatment progress.

Successful treatment of the non-growing patient with an open bite of either dental skeletal pattern often presents a difficult challenge. The morphologic pattern in anterior open bite is characterized by longer vertical dimensions, an increase in development of the maxillary posterior dento-alveolar structure and a steep mandibular plane. In such cases, molar intrusion would be a good remedy for treatment. This article reports the successful treatment and retention of two anterior open-bite cases. We used orthodontic mini-implants for treatment and a circumferential retainer with posterior bite block or skeletal fixed retainer for retention. The diagnostic criteria and mechanics for appropriate treatment are discussed. Our results suggest that open bite can be reduced successfully with intrusion of molars using orthodontic mini-implants (OMI) without orthognathic surgery, and that circumferential retainer with posterior bite block and skeletal fixed retainer are effective for retention.

This study was carried out to examine the main cause of influencing oral health impact profile (OHIP) and self-esteem of patients on orthodontic treatment. Questionnaire was used for research based on 200 patients on orthodontic treatment in four dental clinics specialized orthodontic treatment and located in Daegu. General characteristics, orthodontic treatment characteristics, OHIP, and self-esteem were examined to analyze the cause of influencing OHIP and self-esteem of patients on orthodontic treatment. The results, Influential factors in OHIP, The younger age (P<0.01), showed that healthier oral condition (P<0.001), and treatment done by family encouragement (P<0.05) were the influential factors of OHIP. Influential factors in self esteem showed that male (P<0.05), unmarried (P<0.01), and higher income (P<0.05) were influential factors of self esteem.
