완전히 발육된 하악 제3대구치가 매복되어 있거나 또는 부분적으로 맹출된 상태일때는 임상증상을 일으키기 전에 발치하는 것이 치관주위염이나 이로 인한 합병증 및 치주질환 등을 예방할 수 있느느 가장 좋은 방법이며 이미 임상 증상을 유발한 매복 하악 제 3대구치는 대부분 재발방지를 위하여 발거하게 된다. 성공적인 발치의 기준을 1) 치아의 완전한 발치 2) 인접조직에 대한 최소한의 외과적 손상 3) 술후 합병증의 극소화 4) 가능한한 시술 시간의 단축 등이라 할때 매복 하악제 3대구치의 성공적인 발거를 위하여는 발치의 기본 원칙을 숙지하여야 함은 물론이며 더욱 면밀한 술전 평가와 외과적 발치술 시 필요한 기구의 완비 등이 필수적이라 할 것이다.

Infraclusion may be defined as teeth that stop their relative occlusal movement in the dental arches during or after the period of active eruption and then remain under the occlusal plane. Delayed exfoliation, malocclusion, increased susceptibility to dental caries and periodontal disease of both the neighboring teeth and retained molar, and dislocation of the successor are the consequencces of infraclusion of primary molars. Therefore, early diagnosis and appropriate treatments are necessary. The therapeutic approach of the infracluded teeth varied from preservation to extraction. The teeth with simple infraclusion without any signs of interference with occlusal and jaw development may be examined periodically with follow-up check and radiographically. However, if the infracluded tooth interferes with normal eruption of successor or shows any sign of delayed resorption, or the tipping of adjacent teeth or supraeruption of opposing teeth is expected, the teeth inflicted should be extracted and appropriate measures should be provided in order to maintain the normal development of occlusion and dentition. The adjacent teeth which have been collapsed over a infracluded deciduous teeth can disturb the arch length perimeter. In such cases, surgical approach might be necessary, although it would be difficult when teeth are severly leaned. However, an easier surgical access have been obtained by space regaining procedures, in young patients whose arch length has been shortened due to the infracluded teeth.

Esthetics is important in restoring maxillary anterior area. Alveolar bone resorption and loss of interdental papilla may be minimized by immediate implantation. Previous studies showed successful results with the immediate implantation in healthy extraction socket, while many of these studies objected the immediate implantation into extraction sites with periapical lesions. Recent studies, however, reported successful results of the immediate implantation into extraction sites with periapical lesions with careful debridement of extraction sockets and general medication of antibiotics prior to implantation. A 73-year-old female visited the department of Prosthodontics in ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ University Dental Hospital with the chief complaint of fallen post-core and crown on left maxillary incisor. Although the incisor was with vertical root fracture and periapical lesion, the immediate implantation following the extraction of tooth was planned. Thorough socket debridement, irrigation with chlorhexidine, and tetracycline soaking were followed by immediate implantation. The general medication of antibiotics (Moxicle Tab.$^{(R)}$, 375 mg) was prescribed before and after the surgery. Immediate provisional restoration was delivered two days after the surgery, and the definitive metal-ceramic restoration was placed about six months later after reproducing the emergence profile from the provisional restoration. This case presents satisfying result esthetically and functionally upto two years after the placement of prosthesis with the harmonious gingival line and no loss of marginal bone.

Maxillary canines are the most commonly impacted or ectopically erupted teeth. If we find the abnormality of maxillary canines early, we can manage it reasonably and systematically. If we cannot see the spontaneous normalization at the periodic recall, primary canine extraction will be the next treatment choice. However, if the primary canine is extracted too early, the extraction socket will be filled with hard bone and then the eruption pathway can be locked. So it is more beneficial to extract the primary canine at the period about 6 months before the normal canine eruption time. The next treatment plan can be surgical and orthodontic approaches before the root apical closure of the impacted canine. Sometimes, surgical extraction and further prosthetic procedure can be needed for a severely malposed impacted canine or badly resorpted incisor. This is the case of the idiopathic mesial movement of impacted maxillary canines.

Delayed eruption of a maxillary incisor results in midline shift, the space occupied by adjacent teeth and different levels of alveolar height. Extraction or surgical/orthodontic therapy is the most common treatment for a impacted maxillary incisor. Surgical repositioning provides another option for treatment of this problem. The advantages of this approach include immediate esthetic improvement, use of a single and simplified surgical procedure, simple and short orthodontic therapy, a normal gingival margin and the possibility of the developing root adapting to the new position. Autotransplantation of an immature tooth provides for possible adaptation of the developing root apex to the new position. A root with an open apex has good chance of pulp revascularization after transplantation.

Ectopic eruption should be understood as a change in the course of the normal eruption path of a dental bud at any moment in its origin. Transposition is a unique and extreme form of ectopic eruption. The treatment for ectopic eruption and transposition is various from simple observation to surgical exposure and orthodontic traction, according to direction of erupting tooth degree of developing root apex and eruption space etc. Autotransplantation is transplantation of tooth from one area of the mouth to another in the same individual or is moving a eruption tooth into extraction socket or surgically prepared socket, and autotransplantation is considered as a treatment of choice for the ectopic eruption when orthodontic traction is unable or when tooth movement is limited. These cases which were treated with autotransplantation of maxillary lateral incisor and maxillary canine were reported, and good esthetic and functional result were induced.

The osteoradionecrosis of the mandible can be a serious complication of radiotherapy for malignancies of the head and neck. The cause and pathogenesis of osteoradionecrosis are unclear and anecdotal. There are various treatment-, patient- and tumor-related risk factors on development of osteoradionecrosis. The treatment of osteoradionecrosis relies on conservative measures (antibiotics, debridement, irrigation and HBO) and surgical measures (sequestrectomy, marginal resection and segmental resection with or without reconstruction). But the indications are not defined. We present the two cases of patients who were not controlled by conservative treatment but good-resulted by surgical treatment.

A crown-root fracture is defined as a fracture involving enamel, dentin, and cementum. The fractures may be grouped according to pulpal involvement into uncomplicated and complicated. Generally a vertically crown-root fractured tooth must be extracted. However, it should be mentioned that the cases have been reported where bonding of the coronal fragment has led to consolidation of the intraalveolar part of the fracture. Definitive conservative therapy comprises one of four treatment alternatives; fragment removal only, fragment removal with gingivectomy, orthodontic extrusion of apical fragment, and surgical extrusion of apical fragment. The choice is primarily determined by the exact information on the site and the type of fracture, but the cost and the complexity of treatment can also be decisional factors. On the other hand, intentional replantation of the teeth with vertical root facture reconstructed with resin bonding has emerged as a new promising method in recent years. This case presents an intentional replantation of the crown-root fractured maxillary central incisor reconstructed with resin bonding. However, an obvious increase of radiolucency was observed after 4 months and the tooth was re-fractured after 16 months.
