The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between self-leadership, psychological empowerment and job satisfaction in dental hygienists, who form major manpower directly affecting dental care service, and to develop a plan for good-quality intra-organizational personal improvement. To collect data, convenience sampling was performed from May 1 to June 10, 2017 among clinical dental hygienists working at dental hospitals and clinics in Chungcheong and Jeolla Provinces and a self-administered questionnaire was used. Self-leadership was positively correlated with psychological empowerment and job satisfaction; psychological empowerment was positively correlated with job satisfaction. The factors for job satisfaction included psychological empowerment, dental system and self-conformity, and self-leadership. It has been confirmed that there is correlation among self-leadership, psychological empowerment, and job satisfaction in clinical dental hygienists; therefore, it is necessary to use positive psychological empowerment, establish a proactive self-leadership convergence program, and pay attention to the good direction and management of dental organizations with the objective of improving job satisfaction in dental hygienists.

Since changing the occlusal vertical dimension could be time-consuming, financially challenging, and physically demanding for both clinicians and patients, multi-faceted analysis and careful consideration are essential in the diagnosis and further treatment process. The purpose of this narrative review is to discuss the occlusal vertical dimension and its current issues, and to summarize previous methods of evaluating occlusal vertical dimension to propose clinical guidance for determining a viable occlusal vertical dimension for full-mouth rehabilitation.

hypnosis(최면<술>)는 문자기록의 역사만큼이나 오래되었다. 1773년 Franz A.Mesmer는 의학분야에서 ‘최면술(mesmerism)'이란 용어를 사용하였으며, James Braid는 'hypnosis'란 용어를 최초로 사용하였고, Sigmund Frend는 치료의 한 형태로서 최면상태(hypnotic trance)를 연구하였으며, Hennon은 최과임상에서 사용되어지는 Hypnosis를 Hypnodontics라고 기술하였고, 실제 임상에 Hypnosis를 적용시키기 위해서는 따로 최면요법에 대한 수련을 쌓아야 한다고 하였다. 현재 임상에서 최면요법을 이용하고 있는 임상가는 그리 흔하지 않는 것 같으나 만약 습득만 한다면 행동조절의 한 방법으로서 유요하게 이용될 수 있으리라고 생각한다.
