  • The epidemiological researches on the inpatients hospitalized at the oral medicine ward have been continuously carried out since 1970, and most researches have been performed by centering around the oral medicine wards of college hospitals. Numerous specialists have been produced after the establishment of oral medicine, and they have been active in various fields. As dental clinics have gotten bigger, the function of oral medicine in the secondary clinics is being brought out. As admissive channel, case features, case composition and otherwise have not been researched for a long time, the related researches should be carried out from now on. Hereupon, this study was carried out by targeting the 100 inpatients hospitalized at the oral medicine ward of Sun Hospital located in Daejeon Korea, through questionnaire. As the result, the following results were derived. 1. The ages of the inpatients in Sun Hospital were $29.21{\pm}11.31$ on the average; 71 females' mean average was $29.63{\pm}11.29$ and 29 males' mean average was $28.17{\pm}11.48$. In regard of school career, the patients who finished high-school course or higher accounted for 78%; the patients' school career seemed to be relatively high. The patients who complained of temporomandibular pain accounted for the highest proportion with 65%. In motivation to visit this hospital, internet surfing was 11%, mass media was 10%, acquaintance's introduction was 38%. The patients, who were hospitalized at another hospital due to the same symptom, accounted for 56%. The dental clinics, which made the patients visit this hospital, accounted for 20%. The patients, who were previously aware that the present symptom should be treated by oral medicine, accounted for 38%. The patients, who were not aware of the fact in advance, were 62%. The respondents of 51% answered that they were aware of the fact one month or below before hospitalization. 2. The patients, who complained of craniocervical ache, accounted for 58%; the patients, whose ache aches affect dailylife, were 22%. Continuous ache was 14% and intermittent ache was 68%, and dull pain was 23%. 3. Life variations were compared with each other by using SRRS (Social Readjustment Rating Scale). In consequence, the variation within 3 years indicated a significant difference in the both groups but the variation within 6 months did not indicate any differences. 4. In regard of the questionnaire on the incidents happened for a week, the ache-group was compared with the group free from the ache. As the result, the number of strain arisen for a week, the decrease of favorite works and sudden fear indicated a significant difference. Pleasant feeling and the decrease of interests in looks did not indicate a significant difference, but came close to the significance. 5. In the questionnaire on impatience, the ache-group indicated higher value but there was not a significant difference. 6. In the questionnaire on the symptoms caused by stress, the two groups indicated significant differences in the item of 'the teethridge itches and feels a tooth rising' and 'the occiput or the nape is stiff.' In the item 'the inside of the cheek or the teethridge are widely peeled off, accompanied with ache and hemorrhage', 'the face has acne or pimple' and 'headache frequently attacks', a significant difference was not observed but the two groups came close to the significance.

  • Purpose: We aimed to investigate the efficacy and side effects of $Ultracet^{(R)}$ in relieving cancer pain in setting. Methods: Sixty-one cancer patients over 18 years old, who had cancer pain with or without medication, were enrolled. Pain and other variables were evaluated before and after treatment with $Ultracet^{(R)}$ for 2 weeks, using Korean version of Brief Pain Inventory. Results: Of 61 patients with assessable efficacy data, the maximum pain intensity(PI) experienced in a day were $5.18{\pm}1.41\;and\;4.82{\pm}1.94$, before and after treatment with$Ultracet^{(R)}$ respectively (P=0.113). The minimum PI experienced in a day were $1.2{\pm}1.05\;and\;0.87{\pm}1.35$, before and after treatment with $Ultracet^{(R)}$, respectively (P=0.038). The average PI experienced in a day were $3.61{\pm}1.01\;and\;3.15{\pm}1.73$, before and after treatment with $Ultracet^{(R)}$, respectively (P=0.022). The current PI were $3.63{\pm}1.25\;and\;2.85{\pm}1.94$, before and after treatment with $Ultracet^{(R)}$, respectively (P=0.003). Regarding the quality of life, only mood changed for the better in 49 patients who were treated with $Ultracet^{(R)}$ alone ($1.98{\pm}1.73\;and\;1.35{\pm}1.15$, before and after treatment respectively; P=0.046). There were five (8.2%) adverse events associated with $Ultracet^{(R)}$ treatment. Conclusion: $Ultracet^{(R)}$ seems effective and safe in ambulatory patients with cancer pain.

  • 치의학 분야에서 디지탈 근적외선 체열측정 장치(digital infrared thermographic imaging; DITI)의 응용이 미미한 것은 과거 열측정장치의 기술력이 부족한 것이 주된 요인이었다. 그러나 최근들어 기술이 진보함에 따라 실시간 열영상을 재현할 수 있게 되었고 이는 치의학 및 의학계에 많은 관심을 일으키고 있다. 지금까지의 연구를 보면 두개하악장애시 구강영역의 온도변화의 임상적 효용 가능성을 제시하였으나 안면 및 두경부에 대한 실제 기기 및 측정방법의 신뢰도에 대한 연구는 이루어지지 못한 상태이다. 본 연구에서는 DITI에 대한 신뢰도를 조사하였다. DITI의 모니터 상에서 비활동성 발통점의 부위를 찾아내기가 쉽지 않다. 따라서 모니터상에서 안면발통점(joint, temporalis anterior, masseter anterior, masseter inferior)의 부위를 찾아 온도를 찾아내는 방법과 미리 발통점 피부상에 링모양의 마크를 부착하여 모니터상에서 쉽게 찾아내는 방법을 사용하여 신뢰도를 조사하여 비교한 결과 다음과 같다. 1. 조사한 발통점 중에서 temporalis anterior, joint, masseter anterior과 masseter inferior의 순서로 피부온도가 유의하게 온도가 높았으나(p<0.05) masseter 내에서는 유의한 차이를 보여주지 않았다. 2. 4개의 발통점 모두에서 높은 열적 대칭성을 보였으며, 좌우 온도차이는 $0.1^{\circ}C$미만이었다. 3. 다른 시기에 조사한 조사자내 신뢰도는 두 조사자 모두 높은 상관관계를 보여주지 않았으며 대조군과 마크를 사용한 군간에는 뚜렷한 차이를 볼 수 없었다. 4. 동일한 시기에 조사한 조사자간 신뢰도는 두 시기 모두 joint 부위의 일부를 제외하고 높은 상관관계를 보여주었으며, 마크를 사용한 경우 사용하지 않은 경우 보다 훨씬 신뢰도가 높은 상관관계를 나타내었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 DITI는 두개하악장애환자에 대한 두경부 발통점의 온도변화를 측정하는 데 있어 시간에 따른 신뢰도는 결여되었으나 동일 시기의 측정에는 매우 유익할 것으로 사료되며, 특히 발통점에 대한 표시를 사용하는 경우 매우 정확한 온도를 조사할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • Pneumoparotid is defined as the presence of air within the parotid gland or duct. Pneumoparotid is an extremely rare cause of parotid gland swelling. Pneumoparotid can be induced by air insufflation from oral cavity into the intraparotid salivary ducts, in condition like nose blowing, blowing up balloons, during extubation after general anesthesia while receiving positive pressure, rapid decompression while scuba diving, chronic attempts to suppress cough, and glassblowers. It can also be self-induced, and the literature contains an increasing number of reports involving pediatric and adolescent patients who induce parotid insufflation to avoid school or gain attention. Here, we report a case of pneumoparotid caused by habitual cheek inflating and improved with conservative treatment.

  • The current research examines the aching part and the muscle activity that happens during scaling practice subject to 20 dental hygienic students and therefore propose a basic data according to the working attitude of the Dental Hygienist. During the scaling we used the free EMG (BTS Inc., Milan, Italy) to measure the muscle activity, and in order to check the musculoskeletal pain area we used the Nordic-style questionnaire, and the measured research results are as following: At the moment of scaling according to posture the occurrence of the pain showed no difference among the groups elbow, back, leg, knee, ankle/foot but in the neck, shoulder, wrist/hand, waist showed a high difference in the degree of pain according to posture. Results from measuring the muscular activity according to posture, in the group that had a good posture, the trapezius and brachial muscles showed a change according to time, and in the group that had a bad posture a high muscle activity was shown in larynx, trapezius and brachial muscles. In the muscle activity, the changing aspect between the two parts, the group that fulfilled a scaling in a good posture showed a low muscle activity, but in the group that fulfilled the scaling in a bad posture the muscle activity increased excessively. Therefore we examined that when fulfilling a scaling maintaining a bad posture can help in using more effectively the activity of the muscle, in the future I think there is a need to raise the office efficiency by subjecting to dental hyginiest that are in the clinics and performing experiments.
