It has been generally believed that the impaction or eruption of mandibular third molars has significant correlations with the growth of the mandible, size of mandibular arch and size of teeth. The purpose of this study was to examine if there is any correlation between the status of eruption of mandibular third molars and the amount of mandibular crowding. The effect of missing of third moalrs to mandibular crowding was studied as well. 140 adult students of Yonsei University were selected and divided into three groups according to the status of mandibular third molars, Group 1) congenital missing group, Group 2) eruption group, and Group 3) impaction group. The tooth size, dimensions of the mandibular dental arch, and the amount of crowding were measured and compared. Results were as follows ; 1. There was no statistically significant difference in tooth size between the missing group and the eruption group(p<0.05). Impaction group showed larger total tooth material, inci- sal tooth material, and individual tooth size except central incisors compared to missing group (p<0.05). Impaction group showed larger total tooth material, incisal tooth material compared to eruption group as well(p<0.05). When individual tooth size was compared, impaction group had larger central incisors, canines, and second premolars than eruption group(p<0.05). 2. Missing group showed larger intermolar width than impaction group and it was stati- stically significant(p<0.05). 3. When compared the amount of total crowding, impaction group showed the largest am- ount of crowding, then eruption group, and missing group showed the least amount of crowding respectively(p<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between missing stoup and eruption group in the amount of incisal crowding(p<0.05). Impaction group show- ed the largest amount of incisal crowding among all three groups(p<0.05).

PURPOSE : The Purpose of this study was to investigate the anti-inflammatory effect on combination dosage of dexamethasone and naproxen after removal of impacted 3rd molars. We evaluated postoperative pain, swelling, and mouth opening limitation quantitatively. PATIENTS AND METHODS : Removal of an impacted lower third molar was done under local anesthesia with 2% lidocaine to 239 healthy patients. We randomly gave experimental group 1.5mg dexamethasone and 200mg naproxen three times a day for postoperative 2days, and also gave control group 200mg naproxen alone three times a day for postoperative 2days. Swelling and pain were measured by visual analogue scale (VAS). Mouth opening limitation was measured by maximum interincisal opening length. We estimated these measurements in the first and second postoperative days. Differences between experimental and control group were investigated considering age, sex, BMI(body mass index), impacted type, surgical site(right or left), and operation time by independent student T-test. RESULTS : In general, swelling, pain, and mouth opening limitations were significantly reduced (p<0.01) by combination dose of dexamethasone and naproxen in postoperative one day. But there was no difference in pain on the second postoperative day. As variables being considered, in the postoperative pain, there was significant difference between experimental group and control group in only male, little bony removal group, left side extraction group. In case of postoperative swelling, there was no significant differences in male, adolescence, long operating time group (over 20 minutes), medium BMI group and right side extraction group. In case of postoperative mouth opening limitation, there was significant difference between only female and long operating time group (over 20 minutes). CONCLUSION : Variables being considered, postoperative swelling was more reduced by the combination dose of naproxen and dexamethasone than that of naproxen alone after removal of impacted 3rd molars. But there was varoius results in pain and mouth opening limitation.

Background : The surgical removal of impacted mandibular third molar can result in considerable pain, swelling, and dysfunction that patient are incapable of work for several days. Factors contributing to post operative swelling, trismus and pain are complex. There is no question but that the procedure of surgically removing an impacted mandibular third molar is inherently a traumatic one and that some sequelae related to the inflammation response are expected. Meticulous surgical technique will minimize the sequelae of inflammation but will not prevent them. In an effort to minimize these sequelae the use of steroid was instituted. Patients and Methods : Present study was to investigate the effect of one preoperative steroid injection in the masseter muscle to the patients(male 9, female 11) who needed prophylactic removal of bilateral, symmetrical, impacted wisdom teeth in the mandible on the complaint like swelling, trismus and pain. through Double-Blind test. Results : 1. After 24 hours investigation, preoperative steroid injection had significantly reduced swelling with 39% and trismus with 57.5%. 2. $7^{th}$ post operative day investigation, reduced swelling and trismus had shown, however, not significant. 3. There wasn't major difference from the group who took preve-ntive steroid in the visual analogue scale, the first analgesic intake time and the pain period. 4. There wasn't any adverse reaction of steroid for 20 patient From the above result, If the patients are not contraindication to steroid and pronounced post operative reaction can be expected the use of steroid to the surgical removal of impacted mandibular third molar is recommended.

The extraction of an impacted third molar tooth is associated with many complications during the procedure and postoperative care. These complications include bleeding, swelling, pain, infection, as well as root fracture, proximal tooth injury, alveolar bone fracture, lingual nerve and inferior alveolar nerve injury etc. With the exception of a fractured root dislocation in the submandibular space, no direct submandibular gland injury related to extraction surgery has been reported until now. A 40 year old man visited the department of oromaxillofacial surgery at Yeouido St. Mary's Hospital for an extraction of the right mandible third molar. A partial third molar impaction was diagnosed by a clinical and radiographic examination. A surgical tooth extraction was practiced including buccal cortical bone osteotomy. During socket curettage, an encapsulated cyst-like lesion and a verified $3{\times}3\;cm$ neoplasm in the apically lingual direction were found during process of dissection. A biopsy confirmed that the neoplasm involved the submandibular gland and nerve trunk. This unusual anatomical organ injury during the surgical tooth extraction procedure is reported as a new complication during impacted third molar extraction.
Purpose : The purpose of this study is to evaluate the position of the mandibular canal in relation to the mandibular third molar by cone beam CT in cases showing a close relationship between the third molar and the mandibular canal on the panoramic radiograph. Materials and Methods : The panoramic images and cone beam CT scans of 87 impacted mandibular third molars in 60 patients were evaluated to assess the tooth relationship to the mandibular canal. The clearness of the canal wall and the vertical depth of the lower third molar were evaluated on panoramic radiographs. The lower third molars were assessed using cone beam CT to determine the proximity and position of the canal relative to the roots. Results : In the 66 cases where the canal wall was unclear on the panoramic radiographs, 58 (87.9%) of the third molars had contact between the canal and root; 34 (51.5%) canals were showed an inferior position and 22 (33.3%) showed a linguoinferior position on cone beam CT. Conclusion : Interruption of the canal wall on panoramic radiographs was highly predictive of contact between the mandibular canal and the third molar. Cross sectional CT may be indicated for localization of the mandibular canal in such cases.

Traumatic bone cyst (TBC) is an asymptomatic lesion seen most in adolescents. TBC is found incidentally on routine panoramic examinations and appears as a relatively well-demarcated unilocular radiolucency with scalloped margins. Histological examination reveals a vacant cavity of cancellous bone usually unlined or very occasionally lined with a thin connective tissue layer. The lack of lining epithelial membrane is common histological feature. The most affected site is between the mandibular canine and third molar. The involvement of the mandibular symphysis is rare. The etiopathogenesis of the TBC is unclear. TBC is treated with surgical exploration and curettage; new bone is formed in place of the lesion within 6 - 12 months of surgery. Diagnosis of TBC prior to surgical intervention has limitations in most of the cases. Both of our patients were diagnosed through radiological examination and biopsy. Neither patient had a history of trauma. After surgery, the panoramic radiograph and CBCT were used to confirm bone healing.

Dentigerous cysts generally encompass the crown of an unerupted tooth. These cysts are usually solitary. They are the second most common odontogenic type of cysts following radicular cysts, and are frequently associated with impacted mandibular third molars or maxillary canines. Most multiple cysts found in the jaw are odontogenic keratocysts associated with the nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome, mucopolysaccharidoses and cleidocranial dysplasia. Although a single dentigerous cyst is well documented in the medical literature, including the prevalence, treatment and prognosis, multiple dentigerous cysts without any systemic symptoms is unusual. Furthermore, cases involving both the maxilla and mandible are especially rare. We present the case of an 11-year-old boy with nonsyndromic multiple dentigerous cysts associated with a mandibular second premolar and a maxillary canine. The treatment was conservative and included marsupialization and eruption guidance. Further follow up is planned to rule out additional problems and the possible identification of a syndrome.

Introduction: This study examined the depth of sedation and the usefulness of the monitoring tool in determining the level of sedation in patients undergoing third molars extraction under conscious sedation with midazolam. Materials and Methods: Twenty two patients undergoing third molars extraction at the department of Oral and Maxillofacial surgery, Ewha Womans Mokdong Hospital from February 2010 to April 2010 were analyzed. All patients were classified as American Society of Anesthesiologist (ASA) class I and had no contraindications tosedation. The bispectral index was recorded continually during surgery using a bispectral monitor. The initial sedation was accomplished using a 3 mg bolus of midazolam followed by a 2 mg bolus of midazolam until the level of sedation, at which the patient’s eyes were closed or the subject was responsive only to loud or repeated calling of their name, was reached. All subjects were surveyed with a postoperative questionnaire to evaluate the level of sedation. Results: The bispectral index (BIS) decreased approximately 5 minutes after midazolam administration, but increased at the local anesthesia injection and odontomy procedure. The amnestic effect was shown effectively in the early stages of surgery. Conclusion: Conscious sedation with intravenous midazolam is effective in achieving the effect of anxiolysis, analgesia and amnesia. The BIS is an objective and useful means of assessing the depth of sedation.
The thirty six mandibular second molars, which were extracted because of hopeless tooth due to advanced periodontal disease, were measured the length of mesial and distal root and the distance from cementoenamel junction to root separation. The molars were cross-sectioned every 1.5 milimeter from cementoenamel junction to root apex perpendicular to long axis and each section was photographed, projected and measured with a calibrated Digital Curvi-Meter(Com Curvi-8. Japan). The root surface area (RSA), percentage of the RSA and the linear variation of the RSA were calibrated for each 1. 5 mm section. The results were as follows. 1. The mean length of the roots was 12. 98mm for mesial root, 11.84 mm for distal root. The mesial root was longer than distal root.(p<0.01) 2. The mean distance from the cementoenamel junction to the point at which the root separate from the root trunk was 3.82mm for the buccal furcation and 4.75mm for lingual furcation. The buccal root separation was coronal than the lingual root separation.(p<0.01) 3. The total root surface area was $317.78mm^2$. 4. The mean surface area of the root trunk was $150.06mm^2$ and averaged 42.54% of the total root surface area. 5. The mean root surface area was $88.79\;mm^2$ for the mesial root, $78.93mm^2$ for distal root, The mesial root surface area was wider than the distal root surface area.(p<0.05) 6. In comparision, the mean root trunk surface area of the mandibular 2nd molar was wider than that of mandibular 1st molar(p<0.01), but each root of 2nd molar was smaller than that of 1st molar(p<0.01).
This study was designed to evaluate the frequency and the severity of root resorption of the permanent teeth before orthodontic treatment by means of radiograph in the malocclusion patients. In this study the author analysed the frequency and the severity of root resorption in individual teeth, the relationships of the frequency and the severity of root resorption and age, sex, Angle's classification, overjet, overbite, and maxillary and mandibular incisor inclination, and the relationships of the frequency of root resorption and the characteristics of malocclusion and marked occlusal attrition showed in individual teeth. The results were as follows. 1. All of the persons examined showed some evidence of root resorption in one or more of the permanent teeth, $35.84\%$ of the teeth examined and more frequent in female group than male group(p<0.01). 2. On the susceptibility of the root resorption in individual teeth in this study, the author found the mandibular incisors and the maxillary incisors, in the order named, to be most susceptible in all affected teeth, but maxillary central incisors, maxillary first bicuspids, and maxillary lateral incisors, in the order named, were more susceptible to marked root resolution. 3. The more proclined maxillary Incisors the more affected root resorption in four maxillary incisors and the more proclined mandibular incisors the more affected root resorption in four mandibular incisors. 4. Overbite more affected root resorption than overjet, and the higher tender to openbite the more frequent was root resorption. 5. On the characteristics of malocclusion showed in individual teeth, the openbite teeth combined with crossbite, were most frequent in root resolution.
