Purpose: To know whether there would be a difference among spiral tomograms of different slice thicknesses in the measurement of distances which are used for dental implant planning. Materials and Methods: 10 dry mandibules and 40 metal balls were used to take total 120 Scanorailll tomograms with the slice thickness of 2 mm, 4 mm and 8 mm. 3 oral radiologists interpreted each tomogram to measure the distances from the mandibular canal to the alveoalr crest and buccal. lingual and inferior borders of mandible. 3 observers recorded grades of 0, 1 or 2 to evaluate the perceptibility of alveolar crest and the superior border of mandibular canal. ANOVA with repeated measure. Chi-square tests and intrac!ass correlation coefficient(R₂, α) were used For statistical analysis. Results: There was not a statistically significant difference among spiral tomograms with different slice thicknesses in the measurement of the distances and in the perceptibility of alveolar crest and mandibular canal(p>0.05). All of them showed a good relationship in the reliability analysis. The perceptibility of alveolar crest and mandibular canal was almost similar and an excellent relationship was seen on all of them. Conclusions: There would be no significant difference. no matter which spiral tomogram of any slice thickness may be used in dental implant planning. considering the thickness of dental implant fixture.

To evaluate the tissue response of demineralized and undimineralized xenogeneic bone-martrix graft in extraskeletal site, we prepared human bone as a implant matrix, and outbred mouse as a recipient. Before clinical application of bank bone of human in Wonkwang university, we should confirm the allogeneic bone grafts us a biologically useful bone graft substitutes, obtanined from the patients receiving oral and maxillofacial surgery. The clinical evaluation and histologic studies showed that both (demineralized and undemineralized) xenogeneic bone matrix grafts were not rejected and that they seemed to stimulate new bone formation at the transplanation site. Undemineralized xenogeneic bone marb6 grafts showed minimal bone induction and gradual demineralization with slow resorption and showed that the differentiation of cells showing fibroblastic activity adjacent to the sop tissue were slowly and less frequently than demineralized bone. Characteristical differences between the demineralized and undemineralized matrix were the appearance of foreign body giant cells (multinucleated giant cells) and the evidence of sloe resorption in undemineralized bone matrix.

This study was to designed to evaluate the reactions of mouse femoral bone to bone wax. In sixteen mice with a strain of I. C. R. mouse weighed approximately 300 to 850g 2.0~2.0mm sized bone defects were created by drilling. Half of mice were inserted by bone wax and the remainder serving as control without bone wax application. The mice were sacrificed 1, 2, 6, 8 weeks after operation and block specimens were prepared for light microscopy examination. The results obtained were as follows. 1. Histologic features of tissue reaction to bone wax were the presence of inflammatory cell infiltration and multinucleated giant cell. 2. Bone ear healing from the created margin were markedly impaired by the application of bone wax 3. New bone formation was markedly decreased in bone wax application.

In this report, a case is presented in which resected mandible was reconstructed immediately with vascularized bone graft and adjunctive implantation of osseointegrated dental implants. The primary was central odontogenic myxoma of mandible extending from symphysis to the left condylar neck. The hemimandibulectomy defect was restored with free fibular flap. Three months after 1st surgery, the transplant received five $IMZ^{(R)}$ implants. The masticatory function was restored with the implant borne denture. The result including facial appearance was very satisfactory.

Purpose: The purpose of this research is to study about initial adhesion, proliferation and activation of osteoblast to titanium surface treated with machined, hydroxyapatite coating, resorbable blast material blasting and anodizing method. Material and Methods: After treating the titanium surface of each block with machined, impurities were removed and sterilized. The number of cells attached from cultured osteoblast of respective experimental groups were measured at 1, 4, 7, and 14day and alkaline phosphatase, calcium, and inorganic phosphate concentration of cultured solution was measured. Result: Anodizing group showed the highest rate of cell attachment and proliferation activity. RBM treated group showed the highest increasing on their alkaline phosphatase activity, on the calcium apposition, on inorganic phosphate apposition of 1 and 4 days in cultured osteoblast to compare with other groups. Conclusion: On the basis of these findings, we conclude that surface modification of titanium was profoundly effected on the attachment, proliferation and activation of osteoblast in initial stage osseointegration.

Purpose. This multicenter retrospective study was performed to evaluate the survival and success rates of immediate placement of USII and SSII Osstem implant (Osstem implant Co, Korea) on the maxillary and mandibular anterior and premolar areas. Materials and methods. Dental records were obtained in 37 patients who were treated with immediate implantation on the maxillary and mandibular anterior and premolar areas in 6 different clinics. The 98 implants were evaluated both clinically and radiographically using predefined success criteria. Results. There was no failed implant in all patients. The mean follow up period was 24.7 months (ranged from 12 to 58 months), and 25.1 months (ranged from 16 to 35 months) in USII and SSII implants, respectively. The crestal bone loss was 3 mm in 3 USII implants during 41 months, and in 1 SSII implant during 22 months. The overall success rate was 94.2% and 97.7% in USII and SSII implants, respectively. The age, gender, diameter, or length of implants, and type of surgery were not influenced to the success rate of immediate implantation. Conclusion. These results suggest that USII and SSII Osstem implant can be used successfully in immediate implantation on the maxillary and mandibular anterior and premolar areas.

This study was performed in order to identify changes of the plasma membrane proteins in rat submandibular gland tumors induced by 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene [DMBA] and X-irradiation. Two kinds of tumor associated membrane proteins (protein A and B) were isolated with 3 M KCl extraction from rat submandibular gland tumors induced by DMBA and X-irradiation. To identify their antigenicities, immunoelectrophoresis and double immunodiffusion was carried out with various proteins extracted from liver, heart, skin and pancreas of adult rats and from embryonic liver, heart and skin. The rabbit antisera against the protein A did not cross-react with any of the proteins extracted from the above mentioned tissues, suggesting that protein A might be tumor specific antigen. However, the rabbit antisera against protein B was precipitated with proteins extracted from the liver of adult and embryonic rats. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of these two proteins (A and B) showed that protein A was a dimer with molecular weights of 69,000 and 35,000 dalton, whereas protein B was a monomer with molecular weight of 50,000 dalton.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the ashed tooth powder is utilized as an alternative material of the implant. For this purpose the author performed the experimental study to investigate the tissue response of sintered toothash and its histocompatibility. Bony defects to expose the body of marrow, $1{\times}1cm$ in size, were created in the right and left mandibular body of mature dog, and then the ashed tooth powders were filled in right side and the blood clot was filled in the left side as an control. The dogs were sacrificed at 4th, 7th, and 16th week after implantation and histologic examination was performed. The results of this study were obtained as follows : 1. Any inflammatory response was not noted after implanting of the ashed tooth powder during the whole experimental period. 2. At 4th week, ashed tooth powders were surrounded by mature connective tissue. And we could observe hydroxyapatite crystal structure within the ashed tooth powder. 3. At 7th week, we could observe that macrophage phagocyted the small granules of ashed tooth powders. 4. At 16th week, the union with host bone by growth of new trabeculae was observed. And there were remnants of ashed tooth power within some of new trabeculae.
