This study was to investigate the influence of combining composite resins with different elastic modulus, and occlusal loading condition on the stress distribution of restored notch-shaped non-carious cervical lesion using 3D finite element (FE) analysis. The extracted maxillary second premolar was scanned serially with Micro-CT. The 3D images were processed by 3D-DOCTOR. ANSYS was used to mesh and analyze 3D FE model. A notch-shaped cavity was modeled and filled with hybrid, flowable resin or a combination of both. After restoration, a static load of 500N was applied in a point-load condition at buccal cusp and palatal cusp. The stress data were analyzed using analysis of principal stress. Results showed that combining method such that apex was restored by material with high elastic modulus and the occlusal and cervical cavosurface margin by small amount of material with low elastic modulus was the most profitable method in the view of tensile stress that was considered as the dominant factor jeopardizing the restoration durability and promoting the lesion progression.

흡수성 차페막을 이용한 조직 유도 재생술시 차폐막의 견고성으로 미루어 보아 재생을 위한 공간의 유지가 어려울 수 있다. 조직 유도 재생술과 함께 골이식술을 시행함으로써 공간 확보와 함께 적절한 혈병의 유지를 도모할 수 있고 이식된 골은 선생골 형성을 위한 핵으로 작용할 수도 있다. 최근에 사람의 치아회분말과 연석고를 혼합한 골이식재가 여러 연구를 통해 좋은 골이식재로 평가되었다. 본 연구에서는 성견 하악 소구치 2급 치근이개부위에 외과적으로 형성하여 흡수성 차폐막과 치아회분말-연석고 혼합 이식재를 이용한 조직유도재생 술을 시행하여 치주 조직 재생의 양상을 조직학적으로 관찰하고자 한다. 생후 12개월에서 16개윌 된 체중 15 Kg 내외의 성견 4마리를 이용하였다. 실험 재료로 생체흡수성 차폐막 (Biogide(R), Swiss) 를 사용하였고, 골이식재로 치아회분말-연석고를 혼합매식 하였다. 양측 상악 소구치 부위에 변연 치조골하방에 4 mm ${\times}$ 4 mm ${\times}$ 4 mm, (깊이 ${\times}$ 근원심 ${\times}$ 협설폭경) 깊이로 골내낭을 형성하였다. 형성된 골내낭의 기저부위 치근 표면에 1/4 round bur로 notch를 형성하여 참고점으로 하였다. 무작위로 선택된 한 쪽의 결손부를 대조군으로 오직 생체 흡수성 차폐막을 사용하였고, 실험군으로 치아회분말-연석고와 생체 흡수성 차폐막을 결손부로부터 2 mm 이상 덮을 수 있도록 다듬어 결손부 위에 위치시킨 후 협측 판막을 덮고 봉합하였다. 4주 후 2마리 ,8주 후 2마리를 희생시키고 통상의 방법으로 고정, 탈회, 포매의 과정을 거쳐 광학 현미경으로 검경하였다. 그 결과, 1. 4주 대조군에서 Bio-gide(R)는 완전한 흡수를 보였고, 치근이개부내에는 큰 공간이 존재하였다. 2. 4주 실험군에서 역시 Bio-gide(R)는 완전한 흡수를 보였고, 골 결손부내에 더 많은 신생골 관찰되었다. 그러나 아직까진 기존골과 신생골간에 명확한 차이가 있어서 쉽게 구분할 수 있었다. 또한 골이식재 주변으로 파골세포가 다수 관찰되며 이로 미루어 보아 활발한 골흡수가 일어남을 알 수 있었다. 3. 8주 대조군에서 결손부내에서는 기존골에 인접하여 신생골 형성이 부분적으로 일어났으나 연조직 침입이 관찰되었다. 4. 8주 실험군은 신생골이 기존골과 매우 유사한 형태로 관찰되었고, 신생골 형성 부위에 신생 혈관 증식이 관찰되었다. 또한 골내낭 기저부위에서는 백악질과, 치주인대가 재생됨이 관찰되었다. 이상의 결과에서 치아회분말-연석고 혼합매식은 골재생을 위한 골전도성이 있는 재료로 사료되며, 이를 이용히여 치주조직재생술시 흡수성 차폐막과 병행하여 사용한다면 더 많은 골재생이 있을 것으로 기대된다.

At intrusion of upper anterior teeth in patient with periodontal defect, the use of three-piece base arch appliance for pure intrusion is required. To investigate the change of the center of resistance and of the distal traction force according to alveolar bone height at intrusion of upper anterior teeth using this appliance, three-dimensional finite element models of upper six anterior teeth, periodontal ligament and alveolar bone were constructed. At intrusion of upper anterior teeth by three-piece base arch appliance, the following conclusions were drawn to the locations of the center of resistance according to the number of teeth, the change of distal traction force for pure intrusion and the correlation to the change of vertical, horizontal location of the center of resistance according to alveolar bone loss. 1. When the axial inclination and alveolar bone height were normal, the anteroposterior locations of center of resistance of upper anterior teeth according to the number of teeth contained were as follows : 1) In 2 anterior teeth group, the center of located in the mesial 1/3 area of lateral incisor bracket. 2) In 4 anterior teeth group. the center of resistance was located in the distal 2/3 of the distance between the bracket of lateral incisor and canine. 3) In 6 anterior teeth group, the center of resistance was located in the central area of first premolar bracket .4) As the number of teeth contained in anterior teeth group increased, the center of resistance shifted to the distal side. 2. When the alveolar bone height was normal, the anteroposterior position of the point of application of the intrusive force was the same position or a bit forward position of the center of resistance at application of distal traction force for pure intrusion. 3. When intrusion force and the point of application of the intrusive force were fixed, the changes of distal traction force for pure intrusion according to alveolar bon loss were as follows :1) Regardless of the alveolar bone loss, the distal traction force of 2, 4 anterior teeth groups were lower than that of 6 anterior teeth group. 2) As the alveolar bone loss increased, the distal traction forces of each teeth group were increased. 4. The correlations of the vertical, horizontal locations of the center of resistance according to maxillary anterior teeth groups and the alveolar bone height were as follows : 1) In 2 anterior teeth group, the horizontal position displacement to the vortical position displacement of the center of resistance according to the alveolar bone loss was the largest. As the number of teeth increased, the horizontal position displacement to the vertical position displacement of the center of resistance according to the alveolar bone loss showed a tendency to decrease. 2) As the alveolar bone loss increased, the horizontal position displacement to the vertical position displacement of the center of resistance regardless of the number of teeth was increased.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate hard and soft tissue changes following the subapical osteotomy in bimaxillary dentoalveolar protrusion patients requiring maximal retraction adult female patients was selected. Surgical procedures were performed by the same surgeon, anterior subapical osteotomy techniques were employed on the maxilla and cephalometric radiograms were traced and superimposed using the best-fit method and two reference The results were as follows 1. The bodily movement of the maxillary anterior segment was achieved in a posterior moved posteriorly with a slight correction of the lower incisors. 2. The horizontal soft tissue measurements changed significantly after treatment, but Nt and Sn vertical soft tissue measurements indicated that Ls moved inferiorly and Li superiorly. 3. The correlation between hard and soft tissue changes indicated that ${\Delta}HId/{\Delta}HLi,\;{\Delta}HId/{\Delta}LL-Eline,\;{\Delta}Hpt.B/{\Delta}HILS,\;and\;{\Delta}UI-FH/{\Delta}NL$ were significant. 4. More lower lip relative to upper lip retraction was demonstrated in relation to Rickett's E-line. The ratio between upper lip displacement was $50\%$, and between the lower incisor and lower lip displacement was $60\%$. We conclude from the results that the anterior subapical osteotomy is an efficient treatment severe dentoalveolar protrusion and desire rapid results.

These are two case reports of recurrent ossifying and cemento-ossifying fibroma in a year or 5 months following conservative treatment. Ossifying fibroma or cemento-ossifying is a relatively uncommon benign fibro-osseous tumor of the jaws, and is generally believed to originate from periodontal ligaments. In recent, it is not demanded more differentiation of ossifying, cementifying and cemento-ossifying fibroma due to the thought that these lesions represent a spectrum of the same disease process rather than separate entities. The tumor commonly presents as an asymptomatic mass lesion and is usually well-circumscribed clinically so that conservative surgical excision has been the treatment of choice, but on occasion extended surgical procedures may become necessary, especially for those tumors which demonstrate rapid expansions and are poorly encapsulated (either initially or when recurrent) and when tumor growth is progressed aggressively or recurrent. En-bloc resection of mandible with iliac bone and inferior alveolar nerve graft was performed in case 1, recurrent cemento-ossifying fibroma of 32-year old male patient, and extended surgical enucleation of mass including normal marginal bone was done in case 2, recurrent ossifying fibroma of 72-year old female patient. By follow-up check of the patients, we obtained good result without any sings of recurrence.

Dentigerous cysts generally encompass the crown of an unerupted tooth. These cysts are usually solitary. They are the second most common odontogenic type of cysts following radicular cysts, and are frequently associated with impacted mandibular third molars or maxillary canines. Most multiple cysts found in the jaw are odontogenic keratocysts associated with the nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome, mucopolysaccharidoses and cleidocranial dysplasia. Although a single dentigerous cyst is well documented in the medical literature, including the prevalence, treatment and prognosis, multiple dentigerous cysts without any systemic symptoms is unusual. Furthermore, cases involving both the maxilla and mandible are especially rare. We present the case of an 11-year-old boy with nonsyndromic multiple dentigerous cysts associated with a mandibular second premolar and a maxillary canine. The treatment was conservative and included marsupialization and eruption guidance. Further follow up is planned to rule out additional problems and the possible identification of a syndrome.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the change of soft tissue profile on lower face following retraction of incisors through orthodontic treatment. 31 Korean women with bialveolar protrusion who were treated with 4 first bicuspid extraction were selected. All of samples were treated from above 17 years of age. Lateral cephalometric head films taken before and after treatment were analyzed statistically. The results were obtained as follows. $\cdot$The ratio of upper incisor retraction to upper lip retraction and lower incisor retraction to lower lip retraction were 1.54:1 (r=0.746) and 0.92:1 (r=0.584) respectively $\cdot$It appeared during orthodontic treatment that UIS-LS was increased considerably and the others in soft tissue thickness measurements were slightly decresed. $\cdot$Analysis of correlation showed that the change of the upper lip (LS) with the change of maxillary central incisor (UIS) and the change of lower lip with the change of B point were most strongly correlated. $\cdot$The multiple regression equations were obtained to predict soft tissue profile change of lower face according to retraction of incisors.

Pediatric dentists often meet children with abnormal in number of tooth. Presence of supernumerary teeth is frequent cause of malocclusion. Etiology for supernumerary teeth is not yet clearly defined, but it is thought to be caused by excessive proliferation of dental lamina by hereditary and environmental factors. Supernumerary teeth occur in the maxilla nine times more frequently than in the mandible. Most common supernumerary tooth is the mesiodens in the maxilla, and some are observed in the maxillary molar and mandibular premolar. It occurs rarely in the mandibular incisor region with the incidence of 1-2% among all supernumerary teeth. A six-year old boy visited the department of the pediatric dentistry, Yonsei University Dental Hospital, with the chief complaint of crowded supernumerary teeth on the mandibular incisor region. Clinical and radiographic examinations revealed six permanent mandibular incisors similar in size, shape, and length. Further investigation using computed tomography(CT) was proceeded on the mandible to measure and compare morphologic features and positions of the six incisors. Then, we decided to remove two incisors which were already erupted. Periodic check-up was followed to monitor the dental development and spontaneous positional enhancement of the remaining four incisors in the mandible.

The dentigerous cysts originate through alteration of the reduced enamel epithelium after amelogenesis is completed, with accumulation of fluid between the layers of the enamel epithelium, or between this epithelium and the tooth crown. Next to the radicular cyst, they are the second most common type of odontogenic cyst. They occur over a wide age range with a peak frequency in the 2nd to 3rd decade. A substantial majority involve the mandibular third molars, followed in order of frequency by the maxillary permanent canines, mandibular second premolars, and maxillary third molars. With regard to the treatment of these cysts, the marsupialization procedure with obturator is recommended during the age when the eruptive force of the teeth is still strong. It can be effective when preservation of the displaced teeth is desirable. We treated the dentigerous cyst by marsupialization with obturator and guided the eruption of involved teeth to normal position. And we got the results as follows : 1. Severely dislocated teeth associated with dentigerous cyst erupted into proper position. 2. The enamel hypoplasia and the root deformity were observed some cases. 3. The bone expansion and defect were healed without infection and recurrence.
