In implant restorations, it is difficult for the patient to percept any symptoms. In addition, they are absent of shock absorbers, which can lead to mechanical failure if stress distribution is not considered. Since maxillary anterior multiple-implant restorations play a significant role in guiding the functional movement of the mandible by distributing lateral force, it is crucial to form appropriate occlusion. The use of the T-scan system is more advantageous in assessing 'dynamic occlusion', such as the change of occlusion over time, the amount of tooth contact during functional movement, and assessing the occlusion in the less-visible posterior teeth. The case is reported as it has satisfactory results in harmonious anterior guidance of a maxillary anterior multiple-implant restoration using T-scan analysis.

If the maxillomandibular relationship is unstable or requires treatment for improved function and esthetics, the first treatment objective is to provide stable occlusal contacts. The patient has moderate mental retardation. Due to inadequate vertical overjet, horizontal arch malrelation and excessive tooth loss, full mouth rehabilitation was required. The purpose of treatment planning is to establish physiologic maxillomandibular relation. Using cephalometrics for occlusal analysis is an aid to make a decision. The amount of horizontal bone reduction was calculated with evaluating soft tissue profile. After provisional denture placement, healing of the surgical site and newly adapted arch relationship was evaluated. The patient satisfied with esthetics and showed stable holding contacts. Periodic examination is needed to exclude occlusal disharmony.

This study is performed to investigate the characteristics of the palatal morphology of the children with anterior crossbite in Hellman dental age IIIA by 3-dimensional laser scanner. Totally 40 study casts were taken; 20 were from children with crossbite and another 20 were from normal occlusion as a control. Each cast was scanned by 3 dimension laser scanner and shaped by the 3 dimension image by rapidform 2000 program(INUS, Korea). And finally it was calculated by Rhino 3D program(Rhinoceros, USA). The intercanine, intermolar cross-sectioned transverse plane and sagittal plane were measured. Due to the variations in palatal morphology, each group was standardized into 25mm, 35mm, 35mm. By sectioning standardized curves of the Palatal morphology per 1mm, the palatal depth of each point was calculated. Through these complex methods, the mean curves of the palatal morphology could be obtained and the values were statistically compared and evaluated by T-test with 95% of significance level. The results were as follows: 1. In the intercanine cross-sectioned transverse plane, the mean curve of palatal morphology of crossbite group was flatter V shape than that of control group, however, there was no statistical significance was found between two groups(P>0.05). 2. In the intermolar cross-sectioned transverse plane, the mean curve of palatal morphology of crossbite was deeper all over the area than that of control group, and the statistical significance was found in the middle area from point 8 to 21(P<0.05). 3. In the sagittal plane, the mean curve of palatal morphology of crossbite group was more deepening as approaching posteriorly than that of control group, and the statistical significance was found in all over the area(P<0.01).

In order In analyze the occlusion of TMD patient, 73 casts and post eroanterior cephalometric X-rays of patients showing TMD symptoms at first interview were measured and compared that of 30 non-patients . Horizental overjet, vertical overbite, openbite, crossbite, depth of curve of Spee, midline deviation, facial asymmetry, attrition, and TPI were measured and processed statistically The results could be summarized as follows, 1. TMD group showed the highest prevalence in twenties, teens, and before 9 years old group in order, and more prevalent in female than male. 2. There were no statistically significance between two groups of overjet and overbite measurements, but showed significance of 6 classification of anterior tooth relationship between two groups TMD groups. 3. n group had more anterior openbite than normal group but there were no statistically significance between two groups. 4. Anterior crossbite was more prevalent in normal group brit posterior crossbite was more prevalent in TMD group. 5. TMD group showed deeper curve of Spee and there were statistically significance between two groups. 6. TMD group had more attrition than normal group and there were statistically significance beween two groups. 7 TMD group showed more facial asymmetry than normal group. 8. TPI did not showed statistical significance beween two groups. According to the above results, TMD group showed severe and complex mode of malocclusion and this should be carefully regarded when treatment planning and during the treatment of malocclusion.

The purpose of this study was to clarify the palatal volume and anterior palatal slope of the children with class II div.1 malocclusion and normal occlusion in mixed dentition(Hellman dental age III A) using three-dimensional laser scanner. Samples were consisted of 31 children with skeletal class II div.1 malocclusion in mixed dentition and 29 children with normal occlusion and profile among the contestants in 2000-2004 Healthy Dentition Contest in Seoul. Totally 60 maxillary study model were taken. Each cast was scanned by three-dimensional laser scanner (Breuckmann opto-TOP HE, INUS, Korea) and shaped into the three-dimension image by Rapidform 2004 program(INUS, Korea). And the palatal volume and anterior palatal slope of each cast were calculated by Rapidform 2004 program(INUS, Korea). The values were statistically compared and evaluated by independent samples t-test with 95% of significance level. The results were as follows: 1. Palatal volume was significantly lesser in children with class II div.1 malocclusion than that of normal occlusion in mixed dentition(p<0.05). 2. No significant difference in the anterior palatal slope and palatal height was found between the children with class II div.1 malocclusion and normal occlusion in mixed dentition(p>0.05). 3. Palatal length was significantly greater in children with class II div.1 malocclusion than that of normal occlusion in mixed dentition(p<0.01). 4. Intercanine and intermolar width were significantly lesser in children with class II div.1 malocclusion than those of normal occlusion in mixed dentition(respectively p<0.05 and p<0.01).

The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of type of malocclusion and orthodontic treatment awareness on quality of life among orthodontic patients in the region of Busan as well as to develop an educational program tailored to the type of malocclusion as a way to improve quality of life. A survey was conducted for approximately 6 months from December, 2015, and the answer sheets from 472 respondents were analyzed. The most common painful area was the teeth, and this case was most predominant in the respondents with level 2 malocclusion, who differed from others in that regard (p<0.001). Regarding the relationship between satisfaction with orthodontic treatment and quality of life, respondents who were more satisfied currently and who were neither quite confident nor quite unconfident were ahead of their counterparts in quality of life. Concerning the reason for receiving orthodontic treatment, quality of life was lower among patients who started to receive treatment due to pronunciation problems (p=0.013), chewing difficulty (p<0.001), and temporomandibular joint click sound (p<0.001). With regard to influential factors on oral health-related quality of life, time for starting to receive orthodontic treatment was most influential (p<0.001), followed by current satisfaction (p<0.001), changes in confidence (p=0.003), self-rated teeth status (p=0.008), and type of occlusion (p=0.019). Therefore, accurate analysis of the oral health status of orthodontic patients and customized oral health education are required to improve quality of life even during the period of orthodontic treatment.
