  • This study is designed to evaluate the treatment outcome of occlusal stabilizing splint and to assess follow-up study of condylar bony changes using cone beam computed tomography(CBCT) in adolescents patients (12-19 years) with TMJ osteoarthritis(OA). 167 eroded condyles in 149 subjects were chosen among the patients who presented to the Department of Oral Medicine of Pasan National University Hospital, diagnosed as TMJ osteoarthritis by clinical exam, x-ray and CBCT from 2009 to 2012. They were treated conservatively with physical therapy, medication, behavioral therapy and occlusal stabilizing splint therapy. After average 9 months, CBCT was retaken and subjective symptoms and clinical findings were investigated. Condyle bony changes were classified by unchanged, less severe and more severe. The obtained results were as follow: 1. Pain, Noise, LOM(Limitation of motion) and MCO(Maximum comfortable opening) measurement of TMJ OA patients were markedly improved after conservative treatment. 2. In the occlusal stabilizing splint therapy group, Pain and LOM were statistically significant improved than non-occlusal stabilizing splint therapy group. 3. In the acute occlusal stabilizing splint therapy group, Pain and LOM were remarkably improved. 4. In comparison of CBCT1 and CBCT2 images, the transition of bone changes to lesser severe was most commonly in joint with erosive change. 5. In the non-occlusal stabilizing splint therapy group, the transition of condylar bone changes from erosion to more severe was many than occlusal stabilizing splint therapy group.

  • Patients with collapsed occlusal support and unilateral chewing show parafunctional mandibular movements, which can be complicated in older patients. Gothic arch tracing and split cast technique are used to confirm the deviation between centric relation and anterior habitual bite in patient who has oral dyskinesia and collapsed occlusion. Temporary denture as occlusal stabilization appliance was provided for stable occlusion and reproducible mandibular movement. Definitive denture was fabricated by lingualized occlusion concept.

  • The Purpose of this study was to investigate the predictors of relapse in orthodontic treatment of skeletal Class III malocclusion in growing patients. A total of 55 patients were studied and all subjects were divided into two groups according to their stability in the post-treatment stage. Of the sample, 33 patients were included in the stable group and the remaining 22 were assigned to the relapse group. Cephalometric data of the pre-treatment stage was taken and compared between the stable and relapse group. The following results were obtained through t-test: 1. This study presented statistical evidence to show that the major skeletal determinant of prognosis in Class III orthodontic treatment was not anteroposterior discrepancy .but vertical discrepancy, especially within the AB-maxillo mandibular triangle. Vertical angular measurements that showed statistically significant differences were AB-MP and ODI(P<0.01) and the vortical ratio measurements were MP-P/AL and PP-P/AL(P<0.05). 2. Relapse tendency increased with the steep occlusal Plane, especially the steep lower occlusal plane. As to occlusal plane, there were statistically significant differences in OP(L)-PP, OP-PP, AB-OP(L) and Wits appraisal(P<0.05). This study claimed that anteroposterior discrepancy was not necessarily the proper criteria to predict relapse. Vertical discrepancy had a significant effect on post-treatment stability.

  • 교합의 부조화는 외상성교합을 야기시킬 뿐만 아니라 치태의 침착을 용이하게 하며 일단 침착된 치태의 제거에도 애로점이 있고 외과적으로 치주낭을 제거하기 위한 술식을 적용할 때에도 문제점이 있다. 따라서 교합의 부조화를 치료해주는 교합치료는 완벽한 치주처치를 위한 중요한 한 분야이다. 특히 치주과 영역에서 외상성교합의 처치는 필수적이며, 그 방법도 대단히 다양하다. 외상성 교합의 증상에 따라서 치료방법을 선택하자면 다음과 같다. 우선 치은조직에 치은퇴축 혹은 형태의 이상이 야기되었을 때에는 이에 따라 외과적인 처치가 선행되어야 함은 물론이며 다음 단계가 치아의 위치이상을 교정적인 처치를 통하여 정복하거나 동요치를 안정시켜줄 필요가 있으며 또한 정확한 교합조정술이 필요하다. 교합조정술에 대한 제반 사항과 술식에 대하여는 본지, 1982년도 6월호에 상세히 언급되었으므로 본 원고에서는 교정적인 처치방법과 치주고정장치의 적용에 대하여 기술 하고자 한다.

  • Skeletal Class III malocclusions are growth-related discrepancies, and the problems are more severe until growth is complete. Causes of skeletal Class III malocclusion are classified into mandibular overgrowth, maxillary deficiency, and combination of the two. Face mask has been recommended for treatment of Class III malocclusion with maxillary deficiency in the early time of growth. Numerous experiments were performed and clinical studies have been reported on face mask ; nevertheless, studies on profile changes and stability after treatment of face mask are considered to be somewhat insufficient. The author selected 50 patients who can be checked for follow-up. They had been diagnosed as skeletal Class III malocclusion with maxillary deficiency and then treated with face mask ; the sample group was divided according to sex, treatment beginning age, palatal suture opening (intraoral appliance). For each group, changing pattern of facial profile and stability of treatment observed, and comparison with 20 Korean normal children(Angle's Class I). The following results were obtained. 1. skeletal, dental, and soft tissue measurements indicated more changes in the amounts of maxillary forward movement during face mask treatment. 2. R.P.E. group showed more significant maxillofacial changes and La-Li group showed more dental changes. 3. Growth changes of maxilla induced in the treatment group during wearing face mask were much more than those of normal group. 4. Growth changes of maxilla in the treatment group after treatment of face mask were less than those of normal group. From the obtained aata, it can be concluded that there was a stimulative effect on forward growth of maxilla during the use of face mask ; however, on removal of face mask, the stimulative effect was eliminated and undergrowth tendency of maxilla resumed.

  • From the point of view of oral rehabilitation, the treatment of extensive tooth wear requires a prosthetic approach. Physiological tooth wear is considered as a normal process and generally does not require treatment, but excessive tooth wear causes problems like inadequate occlusion and esthetics. Changes of occlusal vertical dimension should be made through accurate diagnosis and analysis. Also, the patient's adaptation to the changed occlusal vertical dimension should be assessed over time. This case was a 60-year-old male patient who complained of a decrease in chewing function and esthetics due to severe tooth wear. Full-mouth rehabilitation was performed with a tooth supported fixed prosthesis. An occlusal stabilization splint and provisional restoration were used to evaluate the adaptation to increased occlusal vertical dimension and induce a stable centric relation position. After that, monolithic zirconia prosthesis was delivered. We report this as a satisfactory functional recovery and esthetics.

  • In order to evaluate the effect of conservative treatment for Temporomandibular Disorders(TMD), 137 patients were subjected at the Department of Oral Medicine, Pusan National University Dental Hospital from June 2012 to Sept. 2012. They were treated conservatively with behavioral therapy, physical therapy, medication and occlusal stabilizing splint therapy. Subjective symptoms and clinical findings were investigated to evaluate and compare the patients' status after 3 months treatment. The results were as follows; 1. Pain, Noise, LOM(Limitation of motion) and MCO(Maximum comfortable opening) measurements of TMD were markedly improved after conservative treatments including behavior therapy, physical therapy, medication and splint therapy. 2. There was no difference in treatment outcomes after conservative treatments when the subjects were classified and compared according to gender and chronicity. 3. Conservative treatment including stabilization splint produced better results than physical therapy with medication. 4. After 3 months of treatment, pain and LOM were significantly improved in the MD(Muscle disorder) group. Pain, LOM and noise were significantly improved in the DD(Disc displacements) group. In the OA(Osteoarthritis) group, pain, noise, LOM and MCO were significantly improved.

  • The purpose of this study was to evaluate skeletal and soft tissue changes that occur after using a facemask for treatment of skeletal class III malocclusion, and to assess the relapse pattern when no retention appliance was used. Fifteen skeletal class III malocclusion patients were treated with a facemask for an average of 12 months. No retention appliance was used during the 1 year follow-up period. Cephalograms were taken during pretreatment, posttreatment, and the 1 year follow-up. Cephalograms were traced, analyzed, and the results were compared between cephalograms. All patients showed significant sagittal skeletal changes after treatment, but they also showed a significant relapse during the 1 year follow-up period when no retention appliance was used. Despite the relapse, the sagittal skeletal changes that remained were still significant. Vertical skeletal change was also significant after treatment, but the total change was not significant after a 1 year follow-up due to relapse. In soft tissue changes, facial convexity and upper lip position improved after treatment and this change remained significant after the 1 year follow-up period. Facemask therapy is therefore an effective method for treatment of skeletal class III malocclusion, however, retention is imperative to maintain the treatment effect.
