비심미적인 임플란트유지형 보철물의 심미성 개선은 매우 어려운 문제이며 특히, 상악 전치부 임플란트와 관련되어 있는 경우는 더욱 그러하다. 본 증례는 상악전치부 임플란트의 주기적 배농과 비심미성을 주소로 보철과의사로부터 의뢰된 69세 남자 환자의 심미성 개선에 관한 보고이다. 임플란트는 다소 깊게 식립되어 긴 임상치관길이를 보였으며, 주변 연조직 양도 부족하였다. 임상 검사와 방사선검사 후, 깊게 식립된 임플란트의 제거 대신 예후가 불량한 인접 치아의 발치 후 임플란트를 추가 식립하여 임플란트 유지형 고정성보철물을 제작하고, 깊게 식립된 임플란트는 제거 대신 치조제 증대에 도움을 주기 위해 침수(submergence)시켜 치조제를 증대시키는 방식을 선택하였다. 적절한 진단이 동반된 임플란트 침수가 전치부의 임플란트 비심미성을 개선시킬 수 있는 또다른 대안이 될 수 있을 것이다.

Purpose: To investigate the effects of simultaneous soft and hard tissue augmentation and the addition of polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN) on regenerative outcomes. Materials and Methods: In five mongrel dogs, chronic ridge defects were established in both mandibles. Six implants were placed in the mandible, producing buccal dehiscence defects. The implants were randomly allocated to one of the following groups: 1) control: no treatment; 2) GBR: guided bone regeneration (GBR) only; 3) GBR/PDRN: GBR+PDRN application to bone substitute particles; 4) GBR/CTG: GBR+connective tissue grafting (CTG); 5) GBR/VCMX: GBR+soft tissue augmentation using volume stable collagen matrix (VCMX); and 6) group GBR/VCMX/PDRN: GBR+VCMX soaked with PDRN. The healing abutments were connected to the implants to provide additional room for tissue regeneration. Submerged healing was achieved. The animals were euthanized after four months. Histological and histomorphometric analyses were then performed. Results: Healing abutments were gradually exposed during the healing period. Histologically, minimal new bone formation was observed in the dehiscence defects. No specific differences were found between the groups regarding collagen fiber orientation and density in the augmented area. No traces of CTG or VCMX were detected. Histomorphometrically, the mean tissue thickness was greater in the control group than in the other groups above the implant shoulder (IS). Below the IS level, the CTG and PDRN groups exhibited more favorable tissue thickness than the other groups. Conclusion: Failure of submerged healing after tissue augmentation deteriorated the tissue contour. PDRN appears to have a positive effect on soft tissues.

The ultimate goal of periodontal treatment has been to facilitate regeneration of diseased periodontal tissues, destroyed by inflammatory periodontal disease. Various implant materials have been used to restore the alveolar bone defects. Of the various materials, porous replamineform hydroxyapatite (PHA) has good biocompatibility when placed in a bone tissue, and maintains alveolar ridge for a long period. Decalcified freeze dried bone(DFDB) has been widely used in alveolar bone defects because of its conformity and high osteogenic potential. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of PHA and DFDB on the regeneration of the alveolar bone between fresh extraction sockets and periodontally involved extraction sockets. Experimental periodontitis was induced by the ligation of orthodontic elastic threads after surgically creating periodontal defects on the premolars on the right side of 2 adult dogs for 8 weeks. Following the extraction of each tooth, PHA and DFDB were inserted in the extraction sockets. In control group 1, PHA was inserted in the fresh extraction sockets, and in control group 2, DFDB was inserted. In experimental group 1, PHA was inserted in the periodontally involved extraction sockets, and in experimental group 2, DFDB was inserted. After 20 weeks, the specimens were prepared and stained with Hematoxylin-Eosin stain for the light microscopic evaluation. The results of this study were as follows. 1. No inflammation associated with implant materials was evident in any of the groups. 2. DFDB was completely resorbed, PHA was remained in the extraction sockets in the control and experimental groups. 3. In control group 1 and experimental group 1, extraction sockets were not completely filled with new bone. However, original forms of alveolar crests were maintained in control group 2 and experimental group 2. 4. In control group 1 and exprimental group 1, PHA particles surrounded with many giant cells were well tolerated by the fibrous connective tissues in the coronal part of the socket, In the inferior part of the socket, PHA particles were incorporated into the new bone. In both control group 2 and experimental group 2, DFDB was replaced by newly remodeled bone. 5. No differences of degree of new bone formation were evident between control and experimental groups.

영구치가 선천 결손된 아동에서 유치가 발거되면, 교정적으로 공간을 폐쇄하거나, 성장이 끝나고 임플란트 수복을 시행할 때까지 공간을 유지하게 된다. 그러나 점차 치조골은 위축되고, 향후 보철 수복을 어렵게 하거나 비심미적인 결과를 야기할 수 있으므로, 임상의는 결손 공간과 치조골의 유지 모두 고려해야 한다. 본 증례에는 2개의 하악 전치가 결손된 환아에서 교정용 골성 고정원을 이용한 임시 보철 수복을 시행한 증례이다. 2개의 골성 고정원을 치조정 2 - 3 mm 하방에 수평으로 식립하였으며, 강선이 삽입된 인공치로 고정하였다. 2년의 경과 관찰동안 치은 염증이나 골성 고정원의 탈락은 발생하지 않았다. 또한 방사선 평가에서 인접 치조골의 성장이 저해되지 않았으며, 치조골 폭경 역시 양호하게 유지되었다.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the distribution and prevalence of intraosseous loop (anastomosis between posterior superior alveolar artery and infraorbital artery) in Koreans detected on computed tomography (CT) images taken prior to sinus augmentation surgery. Methods: From the 177 patients who underwent sinus augmentation with lateral approach at Ewha Womans University Department of Implant Dentistry, 284 CT scans were evaluated. The canal height (CH), ridge height (RH), and canal height from the sinus floor (CHS) were measured on para-axial views at the first premolar, first molar, and second molar. The horizontal positions of the bony canals in the lateral wall were also classified. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and t test were used to estimate the statistical differences (p < 0.05). Results: The intraosseous loops were detected in 92 CT scans (32 %). The mean vertical height of the bony canals from the alveolar crest (CH) was $23.45{\pm}2.81$, $15.92{\pm}2.65$, and $16.61{\pm}2.92mm$ at the second premolar, first molar, and second molar, respectively. In the horizontal positions of the bony canals, intraosseous type was the most predominant. The canal heights more than 15 mm and less than 17 mm were most prevalent (33.7 %) and those under 13 mm were 12.0 %. Conclusions: The radiographic findings in this study could be used to decide the lateral osteotomy line avoiding potential vascular complication. However, only one third of the canals could be detected in CT scans; a precaution should be taken for the possibility of severe bleeding during lateral osteotomy.

Purpose: Palatal fracture and mandible fracture result in instability of dental arch. Because they divide the maxillary and mandibular alveolus sagittally and / or transversely and comminute the dentition, they permit rotation of dental alveolar segments and significantly increase the potential for fracture malalignment, complicating fracture treatment. Previous treatment of palatal fracture consisted of palatal splint application and rigid palatal vault stabilization. This procedure result in patient's oral discomfort and removal of palate and screw. Mandible fracture often results in malocclusion due to widening of posterior aspect of dental arch. So we introduce more simple method using intermolar traction wiring, which can protect the widening of dental arch and rotation of dental alveolar segment. Methods: Arch bar and intermolar traction wiring with wire 1 - 0, or 2 - 0 was applied. After exposure of fracture line, neutrooclusion was maintained with intermaxillary fixation. And then open reduction & internal fixation on maxillary fracture line, commonly maxillary buttress, alveolar ridge, pyriform aperture except palatal vault or mandibular fracture line. After 1 week, intermolar traction wiring was removed. We checked occlusion and postoperative radiologic finding. Results: From June of 2007 to October of 2007, 10 patient, who have maxillary fracture with palatal fracture and mandible fracture, underwent open reduction & internal fixation with intermolar traction wiring. All have satisfactory occlusion and there were no complication, like gingiva disease, mouth opening impairment and nonunion. Conclusion: The intermolar traction wiring accompany open reduction and internal fixation can be alternative method for restoration of dental arch in facial bone fracture.

In cases of severe alveolar bony resorption in the edentulous posterior maxillae, implant placement is limited anatomically due to maxillary sinus. If the ridge is atrophic, the various bone grafting methods are required for the ridge augmentation. But the result of the onlay grafting procedure is not always promising. On the posterior maxilla, maxillary sinus mucosa lifting and bone grafting into the sinus floor, subantral augmentation(SA) technique are recommended. Various SA procedures have been developed for implant installation. We perfer to simultaneous block bone graft and implant installation through the residual alveolar ridge into the grafted block bone to fix the grafted bone and to gain the primary stability of the installed fixture. When a sagittal skeletal discrepancy in present due to the severe alveolar bony resorption of the maxilla, the advancement of the maxilla by Le Fort I osteotomy simultaneously with installation of implant fixtures combined with sinus lifting and interpositional bone graft procedure can be indicated. We applied various SA techniques for implant installtion to the 46 edentulous posterior maxillae, and total 154 implants were installed at our department from 1992 to 1999. Various SA techniques were classified in detail and the indications of each techniques were discussed. The changes of residual bony height following SA procedure were studied. The results were as follows. 1. The SA procedure combined with bone graft and simultaneous fixture installation were performed in 41 cases, 126 fixtures were installed and 5 fixtures were removed out of them. Le Fort I osteotomy procedure combined with sinus lifting and interpositional bone graft simultaneous with fixture installation were performed in 5 cases. Total 28 fixtures were installed and 2 fixtures were removed so far. 2. Autogenous block bone graft into sinus floor were performed in 35 cases, autogenous particulated marrow cancellous bone(PMCB) graft in 9 cases, and demineralized human bone powder in 2 cases. The donor site for bone graft were anterior iliac bone in 39 cases, posterior iliac bone in 3 cases and mandibular symphysis in 1 case and mandibular ramus in 1 case. 3. In 9 cases with which SA procedure had been performed with the block bone graft, the change of pre- and postoperative residual bony height were measured using MPR(multiplanar reformatted)-CT. The mean residual bony height was 8.0mm preoperatively, 20.2mm at 6 months following up operation and we gained average 12.2mm alveolar bony height. So, we can recommend this one-stage subantral augmentation and fixture installation technique as a time conserving, safe and useful method for compromised posterior edentulous maxilla.

PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to provide an actual guideline in determining the shape, diameter, and position of the implant in immediate implantation by the measurement of the thickness of facial and palatal plate, the thickness of cortical bone on the facial and palatal plate, the diameter of the root, and the distance between the roots in the cadavers. MATERIALS AND METHODS. The horizontal sections of 20 maxillae were measured and analyzed to obtain the average values. Resin blocks were produced and cut serially at 1 mm intervals from the cervical line to the root apex. Images of each section were obtained and the following measurements were performed: The thickness of the facial and palatal residual bone at each root surface, the thickness of the facial and palatal cortical bone at the interdental region, the diameter of all roots of each section on the faciopalatal and mesiodistal diameter, and the interroot distance. Three specimens with measurements close to the average values were chosen and 3-dimensional images were reconstructed. RESULTS. The thickness of the facial and palatal cortical bone at the interdental region in the maxilla, the buccal cortical bone was thicker in the posterior region compared to the anterior region. The interroot distance of the alveolar bone thickness between the roots increased from anterior to posterior region and from coronal to apical in the maxilla. CONCLUSION. In this study, the limited results of the morphometric analysis of the alveolar ridge using the sections of maxilla in the cadavers may offer the useful information when planning and selecting optimal implant for immediate implantation in the maxilla.

Verrucous carcinoma is a distinctive, extremely well-differentiated, slow-growing variant of the squamous cell carcinoma. Verrucous carcinoma of the oral cavity is relatively rare. McCoy reported about 49 verrucous carcinomas of the oral cavity. McCoy reported that the most common site of occurrence was the buccal mucosa, followed by the mandibular alveolar ridge and gingiva, and that The majority of the patients were between the ages of 50 and 80 years. Although most other series of oral verrucous carcinoma show a male predominence, our case occurred in female. The role of radiation therapy in treatment of oral verrucous carcinoma is controversial, and adequate surgical excision appears to be the treatment of choice. In this paper a case of verrucous carcinoma of the buccal mucosa and a review of the literature is presented.
