치조골과 백악질이 치근막에 의하여 경계되어지지 않고 직접 접촉된 상태인 골유착치는 치조골성장장애, 불안전 맹출, 대합치의 정출, 인접치와의 불안정한 관계 등 다양한 문제를 야기한다. 골유착치의 진단은 방사선 사진에서 치근막의 소실, 타진시의 독특한 소리, periotest를 이용한 동요도 검사 등 다양한 방법이 사용되나 그 신뢰성은 높지 않은 편이다. 따라서 저자는 통산적인 방법은 견인을 시행한 후 견인여부를 평가하여 골유착 여부를 판단하는 임상적 진단법을 사용하고 있다. 골유착치의 치료는 subluxation & extrusion법, autotransplantation법, corticotomy법, segmental osteotomy법, ostectomy법등 다양한 방법이 제시되고 있다. Subluxation & extrusion법은 적용이 간편한 장점이 있으나 골유착의 재발로 인한 교정치료의 실패가능성이 높은 단점이 있다. 본 증례는 다수치의 부분맹출 및 골유착으로 인한 구치부 개방교합이 주소인 환자로 소구치는 통산적인 교정치료법으로 골유착된 대구치는 subluxation & extrusion법을 적용하여 양호한 치료 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

In maxilary anteriors, aesthetic aspect are of critical importance. but it is difficult to achieve esthetic results because of the narrow buccal-lingual alveolar bone width compared to the posterior teeth and alveolar bone resorption during tooth extraction. This case report describes how to minimize alveolar bone resorption and soft tissue collapse when immediate implant placement is done after extraction of the maxillary anterior teeth due to trauma.

After tooth extraction, alveolar bone is resorbed over time. Loss of alveolar bone and reduction of upper soft tissue poses difficulties in future implant placement and long-term survival of the implant. This case report focuses on increasing the soft and hard tissues at the implant placement site by using alveolar ridge augmentation and a xenogeneic collagen matrix as a soft tissue substitute in an extraction socket affected by periodontal disease. In each case, the width of the alveolar bone increased to 6 mm, 8 mm, and 4 mm, and regeneration of the interdental papilla around the implant was shown, as well as buccal keratinized gingiva of 4 mm, 6 mm, and 4 mm, respectively. Enlarged alveolar bone facilitates implant surgery, and interdental papillae and keratinized gingiva enable aesthetic prosthesis. This study performed alveolar ridge augmentation on patients with extraction sockets affected by periodontal disease and additionally used soft tissue substitutes to provide a better environment for implant placement and have positive effects for aesthetic and predictive implant surgery.

2-piece 임플란트에서는 초기 치유 기간 동안 0.9-1.6mm의 골 소실이 일어나는데 2-piece 임플란트의 미세 간극과 그에 따른 생물학적 폭경의 형성이 중요한 원인이다. 최근 수직적으로 미세 간극의 위치를 변화시킴으로 골 소실의 양을 줄일 수 있다는 보고가 있다. 이번 실험의 목적은 미세 간극의 수평적 위치 변화에 따른 골 소실의 양을 비교하는데 있다. 하악에서 인접하여 최소 2개의 임플란트를 식립할 수 있는 7 무치악 부위에 총 15개의 Osseotitie XP 4/5를 식립하였다. 이때 임플란트의 상연이 주위 치조골과 일치하게 식립하였고 무작위로 선택하여 한 그룹(W군)에서는 wide diameter healing abutment를 연결하였고 다른 한 그룹(S 군)에서는 standard diameter healing abutment를 연결하였다. 3개월의 치유 기간후 보철 과정을 시작하였으며 이 때 healing abutment와 같은 크기의 prosthetic component를 이용하였다. 임플란트 식립 직후, 3개월의 치유 기간이 지난 보철 직전(Interval I)에, 보철 과정 직후(Interval II)에 각각 치근단 방사선 사진을 찍어 각 단계에서의 골 소실 양을 비교하였다. W 군의 경우 골 소실의 양이 Interval I에서 $1.60{\pm}0.78$, Interval I+II에서 $2.36{\pm}0.29$이었고 S 군에서는 Interval I에서 $1.5810{\pm}0.3030$, Interval I+II에서는 $1.7346{\pm}0.4199$이었다. W군에서는 Interval I와 I+II에서의 골 소실 양이 통계학적으로 유의할 만한 차이를 보였으며, Interval I+II에서의 W 군과 S 군에서의 골 소실 양도 통계학적으로 유의할 만한 차이를 나타내었다. Interval I에서는 두 그룹에서 골 소실의 차이가 없었는데 이는 1 stage surgery시 healing abutment 주위로 mucoperiosteal flap 접합의 어려움 때문으로 생각된다. 한편 Interval II에서는 abutment manipulation 등의 과정이 추가적인 골 소실을 야기한 것으로 생각된다. Interval I+II에서 W 군과 S 군 사이의 골 소실 양 차이는 미세 간극의 수평적 위치 변화의 양과 유사한 결과를 나타내었는데 이로 미루어 미세 간극의 수평적 이동은 임플란트 주위의 골 소실 양에 영향을 미칠 수 있다고 생각된다.

Purpose: In this study, the retrospective radiographic study is executed to evaluate amount of bone loss of various conditions in patients using customized abutment for 4 years of follow-up. Materials and methods: The subjects of this study were implant fixed dental prosthesis using CAD/CAM customized abutments. CAD/CAM customized abutment and fixed dental prosthesis were manufactured by the Prosthodontics Department of Chosun University Dental Hospital from August 1, 2011 to July 31, 2012. Radiological assessments were performed on the patients who were treated by the fixed prosthodontics. After each treatment, a retrospective study was performed for a total of 4 years at 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, and 4 years. Results: As a result of the study, the customized abutment using CAD/CAM showed less bone loss than the results of existing research. There was no statistically significant differences at alveolar bone loss between splinting group and non-splinting group (respectively 0.27 mm, 0.5 mm). Also, there were statistically significant differences at alveolar bone loss in mx. anterior, mx. posterior, mn. anterior and mn. posterior part (respectively 1.37 mm, 0.39 mm, 0.00 mm, 0.30 mm). Conclusion: The customized abutment using CAD/CAM showed less bone loss than the results of existing research, there were statistically significant differences at alveolar bone loss in implant positions.

Statement of problem: The clinical use of electric and electomagnetic fields for fracture healing applications began in the early 1970s. Since then, several technologies have been developed and shown to promote healing of fractures. Developments of these devices have been aided in recent years by basic research and several well controlled clinical trials not only in the medical field but in dentistry. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare alveolar bone reduction following immediate implantation using implants onto which magnets were attached in fresh extracted sockets. Material and methods: Four mongrel dogs were involved. Full buccal and lingual mucoperiosteal flaps were elevated and third and fourth premolars of the mandible were removed. Implants with magnets and implants without magnets were installed in the fresh extracted sockets and after 3 months of healing the animals were sacrificed. The mandibles were dissected and each implant sites were sampled and processed for histological examination. Results: The marginal gaps that were present between the implant and walls of the sockets at the implantation stage disappeared in both groups as a result of bone fill and resorption of the bone crest. The buccal bone crests were located apical of its lingual counterparts. At the 12 week interval the mean of marginal bone resorption in the control group was significantly higher than that of the magnet group. The majority of specimens in magnet group presented early bone formation and less resorption of the buccal marginal bone compared to the control group. Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, it could be concluded that implants with magnets attached in the early stages of implantation may provide more favorable conditions for early bone formation and reduce resorption and remodeling of marginal bone.

One of the common complications of dental injury is tooth ankylosis. Unlike adults, when tooth ankylosis occurs in the adolescents, ankylosis interfered the growth of the adjacent alveolar bone, resulting in the developmental failure of the alveolar bone and subsequent open bite. The most common treatment option for ankylosed tooth is extraction. However, when prognosis of ankylosed tooth after extraction is expected to be poor due to severity of infrapositioning or prosthetic replacement cannot be performed immediately, various treatment options should be considered. This report suggests multidisciplinary treatment that might bring functionally and esthetically favorable result included alveolar bone distraction osteogenesis and decoronation of ankylosed maxillary anterior tooth with orthodontic and prosthetic treatments.

Purpose. The aim of this study is to evaluate bone change around the implant in patients who underwent alveolar ridge preservation for implantation in the posterior teeth using radiographic data measuring changes of mesial, distal crestal bone level according to post-implantation, post-final prosthesis delivery and follow-up periods. Materials and methods. In total, 36 implants were placed in 32 patients. The mesial and distal crestal bone level of all the areas where alveolar ridge preservation was performed uses panoramic images taken post-implantation, post-final prosthesis delivery, and follow-up period each was measured and evaluated as a vertical value. The following factors were analyzed: associations between changes of crestal bone level and factors (e.g., age, sex, systemic diseases, dentist, implant location, tooth, bone type, membrane). The statistical analysis was performed using the mean, standard deviation and independent t-test, paired t-test (P < .05). Results. Analysis of crestal bone level differences between periods shows statistically significant differences (P < .05). There was no statistically significant difference when the changes of crestal bone level between post-implantation, post-final prosthesis delivery and follow-up periods were correlated with each factors. Conclusion. After alveolar ridge preservation, bone around the implant remained stable during the maintenance period without being affected by the patient and surgical factors, and alveolar ridge preservation is considered a clinically usable procedure.

This paper describes the case of a 50-year-old female with a Class II malocclusion who presented with severe bimaxillary protrusion and generalized alveolar bone loss due to adult periodontitis. The treatment plan consisted of extracting both upper and lower first premolars and periodontal treatment. Anterior segmental osteotomy(ASO) of the mandible and upper anterior segment retraction using compression osteogenesis after peri-segmental corticotomy(Speedy orthodontics) was performed. Correct overbite and overjet, facial balance, and improvement of lip protrusion were obtained. However, a slight root resorption tendency was observed on the lower anterior dentition. The active treatment period was 9 months and the results were stable for 27 months after debonding. This new type of treatment mechanics can be an effective alternative to orthognathic surgery.
