The aim of this study was to examine efficacy of the commercially available 10% CPP-ACP cream (Tooth mousse, GC Co., Japan) and/or 0.05% NaF solution on the remineralization of artifical caries-like lesion in the bovine teeth enamel. Sixty bovine teeth were embedded in orthodontic resin and flattened. The enamel surface in 3 mm diameter was exposed with nail varnish. Specimens were stored in demineralizing solution and divided 5 groups; Group 1 (No treatment), 2 (0.05% NaF solution 1 min), 3 (Tooth mousse 3 min), 4 (After 0.05% NaF solution, Tooth mousse treatment), and 5 (After Tooth mousse treatment, soaking in 0.05% NaF solution during 1 min). After treatment by groups, all specimens was stored in artificial saliva for 30 min. After the process described as above was performed during 10 days without pH cycling, surface hardness (Vickers Hardness Number, VHN) was tested and analyzed by paired t-test and one-way ANOVA test with SPSS 14.0. In intragroup comparison between surface hardness of pre and post-treatment, group 3, 4, 5 showed statistically significant increase (P < 0.05). In intergroup comparison among surface hardness increase of all groups, difference of group 5 between pre and post-treatment ($15.80{\pm}12.21$) was the highest, and followed by group 4 ($14.27{\pm}11.73$), 3 ($4.05{\pm}5.18$), 2 ($1.15{\pm}6.83$), 1 ($0.78{\pm}6.21$). Tooth mousse can be a good alternative agent for the fluoride, and the combination use with fluoride might have the additional anticariogenic effect.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy of mouthrinses prepared by sterilized water-generating $device(Purister^{(R)})$ on the control of gingivitis and incipient periodontitis when it was used as a adjunctives to the mechanical plaque control. 40 healthy patients with gingivitis or incipient periodontitis were divided into two groups. Patients in the experimental group use mouthrinses prepared by sterilized water-generating $device(Purister^{(R)})$ after tooth brushing while patients in the control group do only tooth brushing for plaque control. All patients received scaling and tooth brushing instruction. 1 week after scaling was set as baseline. Probing pocket depth, clinical attachment level, and bleeding on probing were scored at baseline, 4 weeks. Gingival index and plaque index were scored at baseline, 2 weeks, and 4 weeks. The results were as follows: 1. In the experimental group, gingival index, plaque index, probing pocket depth, and clinical attachment level showed statistically significant decrease, but in the control group, significant increase(p<0.05). 2. There was no significant difference between the experimental and the control group in bleeding on probing, but significant decrease in the experimental group and Significant increase in the control group In a time-dependent manner(p <0.05). From these results, it can be concluded that regular use of mouthrinses prepared by sterilized water-generating $device(Purister^{(R)})$ as adjunctives of mechanical plaque control, may be effective to prevent and treat gingivitis and incipient periodontitis.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the actual state of middle and high school student's behavior about the use of oral hygiene devices for developing appropriate educational objectives to improve oral health. Data were collected by questionnaires from 445 middle and high school students in Jeolla-Bukdo, from April 20 to May 10, 2009. Surveyed data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, ${\chi}^2-test$ and t-test using SPSS V11.5 program. In the event of those who didn't use oral hygiene supplies, the largest group didn't use the devices since they didn't know about them well. Regarding links between experience of using oral hygiene devices and concern for oral health, those who received that education showed more interest in oral health, and the students who felt the need for that education had more interest than the others who didn't. The results of study suggest how to encourage students to utilize appropriate oral hygiene supplies and to help facilitate the development of school oral health education programs and the promotion of school oral health.

This study was conducted not only to analyze ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibition activity with fronds and rhizomes of nine Pteridophyte species, but also to select the plant materials suitable for natural ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitor. Harvested rhizomes and fronds were washed, freeze-dried and grinded. After conducting ultrasonification extraction for 30 minutes in ultrasonic water tank with 100% methanol solvent, and vacuum filtration, ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibition activity was measured. Acarbose was used as the positive control. After mixing $100{\mu}L$ of 0.7 unit ${\alpha}$-glucosidase enzyme solution into $50{\mu}L$ of extract and reacting them at $37^{\circ}C$ for 10 minutes, $50{\mu}L$ of 1.5 mM ${\rho}$-NPG solution was taken and reacted at $37^{\circ}C$ for 20 minutes. The reaction was stopped with 1 mL of 1 M $Na_2CO_3$ and absorbance was measured in 405 nm. With the regression analysis, the content of solubility solids (the value of $IC_{50}$) which can inhibit 50% of 0.7 unit ${\alpha}$-glucosidase solution's activity was investigated. The frond ($IC_{50}=14.00{\sim}913.33{\mu}g{\cdot}mL^{-1}$) and rhizome extracts ($IC_{50}=12.93{\sim}205.84{\mu}g{\cdot}mL^{-1}$) of nine Pteridophyte species showed higher ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibition activity in comparison with acarbose ($IC_{50}=1413.70{\mu}g{\cdot}mL^{-1}$). The extracts of fronds and rhizomes showed higher value than acarbose by 1.55~100.98 and 6.87~109.33 times each. Especially, ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibition activities of Pyrrosia lingua in fronds and Osmunda cinnamomea var. fokiensis in rhizomes were the highest. The necessary biomass of fronds and rhizomes for inhibiting 50% of ${\alpha}$-glucosidase activity showed the lowest value, 0.35, 0.27 mg each, in O. cinnamomea var. fokiensis. $IC_{50}$ value of P. lingua was the highest among fronds of nine Pteridophyte species, but content of soluble solids was 2.4 times less than O. cinnamomea var. fokiensis. So frond of O. cinnamomea var. fokiensis is more economic in comparison with P. lingua. As the result of this study, O. cinnamomea var. fokiensis showed high ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibition activity even with small biomass. Therefore it was considered to be high-valued economic material as natural ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitor.

An instant labelling technique for lyophilized pyrophosphate with $^{99m}$Tc is described labelling yield of about 90% is obtained at the pH range 3.5-5.5 on reconstitution with sodium pertechnetate-$^{99m}$ Tc solution. The final product is controlled by a modified two dimensional paper chromatography using 85% methanol and 0.85% saline, and biodynamic investigations are performed on white mice. Generally, the less amount of stannous chloride is used. the higher labelling yield is obtained. The molar ratio of pyrophosphate to stannous chloride of 10 : 1 ~ 50 : 1 is sufficient. The more amount of reduced unbound $^{99m}$Tc is injected, the more radioactivity is incorporated in the liver. Thus. the cause of the false bone-imaging is attributable to the presence of reduced unbound $^{99m}$Tc which is known to be well adsorbed to oxidized tin colloidals. The maximum uptake ratio of bone: liver in mice, in weight basis, 35 : 1 is achieved in lime of 60 min. or so. Tile preparation is suitable for clinical investigations on patients with bone diseases.iseases.

The purpose of this study was to assess the antimicrobial and clinical effects of acid water mouthrinse prepared by an electrolysis apparatus on chronic periodontitis and to evaluate the lasting period of these effects. The change' in the pattern of colonization of bacteria within the subgingival pockets was monitored by phase contrast microscopy, in 40 patients, over a period of 8 weeks. In addition, changes in the clinical parameters of the diseased sites were also monitored. Site of pocket ${\geq}$ 5mm was selected in each patient randomly divided into two groups. As a test group, acid water mouthrinse was used twice a day in 20 patients. As control, no mouthrinse was used in 20 patients The results were as follows : 1. The suppression of motile bacteria was maintained for up to 3-4 weeks at test group. 2. Two groups did not differ significantly in proportion of bacteria in subgingival plaque over a period of 8 weeks. 3. Loss of attachment showed a significant difference in test group and in test group compared with control group (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in control group. 4. No statistical difference was shown in two groups concerning the gingival index, plaque index, bleeding index. The results suggest that acid water mouthrinse is effective for reducing subgingival bacteria. It can be concluded that acid water may be useful as an mouthrinsing agent.
