The purpose of this study was to investigate the alveolar bone turnover in diabetic rat, and to compare the alveolar bone turnover during tooth movement in diabetes with that in normal control Eighty Male Sprague-Dawley strain rats(8th week) were divided into normal control(N), normal-tooth movement (N-tm), diabetes(D), and diabetes-tooth movement(D-tm) groups. Eighteen days before the start of the experiment, diabetes was induced with a single injection of streptozotocin 50 mg/kg of body weight in citrate buffer as vehicle via the tail vein. Maxillary first molars of rats were moved mesially by 40 grams of the closed coil spring. Experimental animals were sacrificed after 1d, 3d, 7d, and 14d experimental period, and the alveolar bone around the maxillary first molars were assayed biochemically for acid phsophatase(ACP) and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) as bone resorption markers, and alkaline phosphatase(ALP) and osteocalcin(OC) as bone formation markers. TRAP and OC concentration in serum and alveolar bone of D group were lower than those in N group, and especially OC concentration decreased mote following diabetes prolonged, which showed the decreased skeletal and alveolar bone resorption and formation potential in diabetic rats. In N-tm group compared with N group, alveolar bone ACP and TRAP concentrations were highest at 1d and 3d(p<0.01), decreased after then, and showed lowest at 14d, and alveolar bone OC concentration was higher at 3d, 7d, and 14d(p<0.001) and showed a tendency of peak level at 7d. which showed the peak of concentration of bone resorption markets at 1d-3d and those of bone formation markers at 7d. In D-tm group compared with N group, alveolar bone ACP and TRAP concentrations were higher at 3d, 7d and 14d(p<0.001), and tended to reach peak value at 7d and persisted through 14d, and alveolar bone ALP and OC concentration increased but not different from that of N group. The amount of tooth movement in D group were greater than that of N group at all experimental period. Those results were suggested that during diabetes, the alveolar and skeletal bone undergo low bone turnover and the mote amount of tooth movement, hut because the peak time of alveolar bone resorption activity was delayed and sustained in longer period of tooth movement and alveolar bone formation activity is lower than that of normal tooth movement, the periodontal space is supposed to be larger doting tooth movement.

The purpose of this study was to observe the effects of pregnancy on the experimental tooth movement and alveolar bone turnover process of Sprague-Dawley female rat. Sixty rats were divided into pregnant-tooth movement group(P-Tm), normal-tooth movement group(N-Tm) and normal group(N). Maxillary first molar appliances were inserted bilaterally and activated to 40grams. To measure the amount of tooth movement, x-ray was taken 2 times after appliance insertion and before sacrifice. Animals were sacrificed at 1,3,7,14 days(N=5). Just after sacrifice, alveolar bones were collected and frozen immediately for biochemical analysis. Tooth movement was assessed cephalometrically and tartrate-resistant acid(TRAP) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activities were measured in extracts of paradental alveolar bone. The results were as follows: 1. The amount of tooth movement in P-Tm group was greater than that of N-Tm group(p<0.01). 2. Alveolar bone ALP of normal tooth movement group was not significantly different from the control, TRAP was significantly different from the control(p<0.01). In normal tooth movement group, alveolar bone ALP was increased gradually and peak(day 7) fell off significantly at day 14(p<0.05). The Peak of alveolar bone TRAP(day 7) fell off slightly, sustained day 14(p<0.01). 3. Alveolar bone ALP and TRAP of pregnant tooth movement group were not significantly different from that of normal tooth movement group. In pregnant tooth movement group, alveolar bone ALP was increased at day 3(p<0.01) and fell off significantly at day 7-14, alveolar bone TRAP were increased at day 3 and sustained day 14. 4. The peak of alveolar bone phosphatases in pregnant tooth movement group(day3) preceded the peak in normal tooth movement group(day7) (p<0.01). According to the above results, we suggested that bone resorption activity was increased in alveolar bone of pregnant rat, and the degree of tooth movement in pregnancy may be greater than that of normal group because of high bone turnover of alveolar bone in pregnant rat.

The patient who has severely absorbed residual ridges, treatments are challenging to satisfy many factors: support, retention, stability, etc. The neutral zone or monoplane occlusion with non-anatomical tooth would be helpful to get additional retention and stability. The monoplane occlusion has been used long time because it can eliminate horizontal forces and many other advantages. The lingualized occlusion was introduced to improve chewing efficiency and esthetics. But from a stability aspect, it seems controversy between monoplane occlusion and lingualized occlusion. This case report shows the results of the treat two flat residual ridge patients using functional impression; piezography, and made 2 other dentures with monoplane and lingualized occlusion that patient can select denture.

전치부 발치 증례에서 기존의 통상적인 보철 시술은 발치 후 발치창이 치유되기까지 최소 1 개월 이상을 심미적 결함을 안고서 기다려 한다는 불편함이 있었다. 발치 부위의 치조제는 수평, 수직적 흡수가 일어나 차후 보철물 pontic design에 악영향을 미치게 되어 심미적 결함뿐 아니라 발음, 구강 청결의 측면에서도 좋지 않은 결과를 미치게된다. 그러나, 발치 직후 ovate pontic을 이용한 immediate fixed restoration으로 수복하면, 치아 상실로 인한 환자의 기능적 심미적 불편함을 해소하고, 치료 과정은 물론 치료 후에도 보다 나은 심미 치료가 가능하며, 치료의 공백 기간 없이 치료 기간을 줄일 수 있다.

치조골흡수는 만성치주질환의 전형적인 증상이다. 골흡수에 작용하는 여러 요인들 중에서도, 특히 최근에 들어서 몇몇 cytokine들에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있는데, interleukin-1(IL-1), tumor necrosis factor(TNF) 및 interleukin-6(IL-6) 등이 치주질환의 진행과정에서 중요한 치조골흡수요인으로 제안되고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 신생쥐의 골조직 배양실험을 통해서 recombinant human $interleukin-1{\beta}$ ($rHuIL-1{\beta}$), recombinant human tumor necrosis $factor-{\alpha}$($rHuTNF-{\alpha}$) 및 recombinant human interleukin-6(rHuIL-6) 의 골흡수 유도효과를 알아보고, cyclooxygenase 억제제인 indomethacin과 recombinant murine $interferon-{\gamma}$($rMurIFN-{\gamma}$)가 이들 cytokine의 골흡수 유도능력에 미치는 영향을 알아봄으로써 이들 cytokine의 작용기구에 대해서 알아보고자 하는데 있다. 생후 1-2일된 쥐에게 $1{\mu}Ci^{45}CaCl_2$를 피하주사하고 4일 후에 쥐를 희생시켜 $^{45}Ca$ 로 표지된 두개골을 얻어 24시간 전배양 후, 각 cytokine ($rHuIL-1{\beta}$, $rHuTNF-{\alpha}$ 및 rHuIL-6)과 cytokine 및 첨가약제 (indomethacin 및 $rMurIFN-{\gamma}$)가 함유된 배지로 교환하여 48시간 배양한다. 골흡수 유도효과는 두개골에서 48시간의 배양 중 유리되는 $^{45}Ca$의 방사능 정도로 평가하였다. 본 연구를 통해 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. $rHuIL-1{\beta}$ ($10^{-12}-10^{-9}M$) 및 $rHuTNF-{\alpha}$ ($10^{-10}-10^{-8}M$)는 농도변화에 따르는 골흡수 유도효과를 보였으나 , rHuIL-6 ($10^{-10}-10^{-8}M$)는 유의할 만한 효과를 보이지 않았다. 2. Indomethacin ($10^{-6}M$)은 $rHuIL-1{\beta}$ 및 $rHuTNF-{\alpha}$의 골흡수 유도작용에 유의할 만한 억제효과를 나타내지 않았다. 3. $rMurIFN-{\gamma}$ (1000 U/ml) 은 $rHuIL-1{\beta}$ 및 $rHuTNF-{\alpha}$의 골흡수 유도작용에 유의한 억제효과를 나타내었다. 본연구를 통해 치주질환 환자의 치주조직에서 검출되는 $IL-1{\beta}$ 및 $TNF-{\alpha}$가 치조골 흡수에 중요한 역할을 할 것으로 생각된다.

Fabrication of complete denture with suction mechanism was introduced to enhance the retention and stability of denture by sealing around the denture border by forming negative pressure on the inner side of denture base during functional movement such as swallowing or masticating. Mandibular suction dentures reduce denture dislodging force during opening by taking preliminary impression without pressure on retromolar pad area in rest position. In this case, fabrication of complete denture using suction mechanism for an edentulous patient with severe alveolar bone resorption allowed us to clinically enhance retention and stability of denture and improve satisfaction of patient.

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.

In order to produce a stable denture for severe alveolar bone loss area, it is not only important that .0a suitable occlusion is established but also to consider compatibility with the surrounding muscle to form a suitable polished surfaces. Neutral zone is defined as a potential area where the neuromuscular system of the tongue, cheeks and lips is balanced can be determined through the neutral zone impression technique. And if artificial teeth are aligned within the neutral zone and the polished surface follows the anatomical form of the dynamic muscle, higher stability and retention of the denture may be obtained through coordination with the surrounding muscle tissue. This case is being reported since the concept of the neutral zone was applied to a patient with severely atrophic residual alveolar ridge and the result was clinically satisfactory in both function and aesthetics.

The Purposes of this study were to investigate the initial tissue changes on the teeth and surrounding tissues under contraction and intrusive force by contraction UTA. A control and experimental dogs, 10-months in age, were studied. Contraction and intrusive force(60gm) were applied at upper four incisors by contraction UTA. Experimental dogs were sacrificed at 2 weeks and 4 weeks after force application, respectively. In this study, 2 experimental groups were designed by the duration of force applied(E1, E2). The specimens were taken around the upper first and second incisor in each groups and were prepared for the H-E and MT stain for light microscopic observation. From the results of the study, the following conclusions may be drown. : 1. In control group, the periodontal ligament width was constant from apical third to cervical third of the root and periodontal fiber arrangement was horizontal or oblique in cervical third, oblique in middle third and apical third. In alveolar bond, smooth appearance was shown with osteoblast. 2. In experimental group 1, in proportion to force was concentrated at labial middle third and apical third of root of the upper first and second incisors, root of these tooth tipped labially and intruded at a time. 3. In experimental group 2, periodontal ligament width and arrangement was similar to control and observed strong calcified response at the labial middle third of root. But, alveolar bond resorption and cementum resorption were as before seen at labial middle third and apical third of root that force was concentrated.

Short implants are used in parts which have anatomical structures like maxillary sinus, inferior alveolar nerve and limited alveolar height due to severe alveolar bone resorption. In these case, there are no need of additional bone augmentation so there are advantages like reduced entire treatment time, reduced patient's discomfort and protection of important anatomical structures. The aim of this study is, in implants whose length is less than 10mm, to analyze the impact of implant length, diameter, location of implant placement, presence of bone graft, presence of prosthesis splinting on survival rates and marginal bone resorption. The samples used in this study were 227 implants, less than 10mm, placed in 137 patients in Wonkwang university dental hospital implant center. From dental charts the information about implant length, diameter, location of implant placement, presence of bone graft, presence of prosthesis splinting were obtained. Emago advanced v5.6(Oral diagnostic systems, Amsterdam, The Netherlands)program was used to measure the amount of marginal bone resorption. Out of total 227 implants, resulting in 96.5 % of survival rate. There was a tendency toward higher failure rates for the maxilla and bone graft site. No significant difference in marginal bone resorption was found associated with length of implants(p>0.05) and neither with the diameter of implants. Among the risk factors examined, more failure rates of short implants can be attributed to poor bone quality in the maxilla and presence of bone graft. At implants under 10mm, length, diameter, location of implant placement, bone graft and splinting of prosthesis didn't affect marginal bone loss.
