This paper addresses uncertainty issues encountered recently in measuring head vibration using the conventional 6-axis or 9-axis bite-bar model. Those conventional bite-bar models are shown to present insufficient information to evaluate a generalized motion of head vibration. In order to overcome such limit, a new theoretical measurement model that consists of four 3-axis linear accelerometers is suggested. It is shown to enable the measurement of three angular acceleration components and six second-order angular velocity-dependent terms. Those nine angular motion-related ones, in addition to the three linear acceleration terms at the origin, are found to make it possible to evaluate the generalized head vibration for a given position. To examine the feasibility of the proposed method, a newly designed 12-axis bite-bar was developed. Detailed experimental results obtained from the developed 12-axis bite-bar are demonstrated in this paper. They illustrate that the popular 6-axis bite-bar model yield about $4.0\%$ relative measurement uncertainty for the pitch component of head vibration, $14\%$ and $10\%$ relative measurement uncertainty for the roll and yaw components of head vibration, respectively. Furthermore, this paper proposes other uncertainty factors to be considered in the future.

This paper addresses uncertainty issues encountered recently in measuring head vibration using the conventional 6-axis or 9-axis bite-bar Those conventional bite-bars are shown to present insufficient information to measure a complete 6 degree-of-freedom motion of head vibration. In order to overcome such limit, a theoretical measurement model that consists of four 3-axis linear accelerometers is suggested (Theoretical backgrounds presented in this paper shall have been addressed in the international congress of ICA 2004 in this April). It is shown to enable the direct measurement of three angular acceleration components and six angular velocity-dependent nonlinear terms. In audition to the three linear acceleration terms, those nine angular motion-dependent ones are found to make it possible to evaluate the general head vibration for a given position. To examine the feasibility of the proposed method, a newly designed 12-axis bite-bar was developed. Detailed experimental results obtained using the developed 12-axis bite-bar are illustrated in the presentation of this paper, which illustrates what amount of measurement accuracy provides. But, this paper provides more detailed experimental data and extended uncertainty factors.

This study was undertaken to evaluate the cephalometric changes of the soft tissue and skeletal profile subsequent 10 the rapid palatal expansion in 25 Angle's Class III cases, ranging in age from six to fifteen years, with cross-bite of the anterior teeth, underdevelopment of maxilla and facial disharmony Following results were obtained: 1. ANS moved downward, Point A presented forward & downward movement increasing SNA and Point B presented backward & downward movement decreasing SNB. 2. Mandible was rotated to backward & forward and maxilla moved forward & downward with the bite opening and improvement of anterior teeth cross-bite. 3. Soft tissue on mandible was rotated to backward & forward following hard tissue changes causing the decrease of facial convexity angle and backward & downward rotation of Point B', Pog'. 4. Response of the upper lip was more significant in downward than forward direction, and correlated with the upper central incisor and mandible rotation. 5. Response of the lower lip was more significant in downward than backward direction, and correlated with the mandible rotation. 6. There was a rather high degree of correlation between skeletal profile and soft-tissue profile, 1 : LS, $\bar{1}$:Pog', Pog:LS, Pog:LI, Pog:Pog' in horizontal measurements and $\bar{1}$:Pog', Pog:LI, Pog:Pog' in vertical measurements.

This paper addresses experimental results carried out to investigate the transmission of seat vibration to the head for Korean. Vertical seat vibration in the frequency range of 0.5-30 Hz was applied to a seated Korean male subject. To examine the intra-variable effects on transmissibility, five different postures and three different vibration excitation levels were considered. The applied acceleration and head accelerations of the seated subject were measured simultaneously by using a 6-axes bite-bar. Detailed experimental results of measured transmissibilities are illustrated for each posture and/or vibration excitation level, and they were compared to an International Standard. They are found to allow the identification of dynamic characteristics of Korean seated body for various reat vibration environments. Furthermore, they are expected to be very useful in designing new seats for automotive and railway vehicles and in improving their vibration ride quality.

The conservative treatment of the condylar fracture has been used for a long time because of its simplicity, good prognosis and less complication. Traditionally the conservative treatment has been carried out by maxillomandibular fixation using arch bar and wire. But a simplified technique of maxillomandibular fixation introduced here is a procedure that 4 bone screws are placed above the apecies of the maxillary and mandibular canines and then ipsilaterally placed maxillary and mandibular bone screws are linked by a loop of wire each other. This procedure has several advantages compared with the traditional maxillomandibular fixation method. 1) it provides simplicity for the operators. 2) it sustains maxillomandibular fixation more rigidly compared with arch bar technique. 3) it keeps stable maxillomandibular fixation in the region of the anterior teeth so that anterior open bite tendency can be remarkably minimized. 4) it does not injure the periodontal tissue because the teeth are not engaged and causes less discomfort to the patient. 5) it decreases the possibility of operator's AIDS infection through inadvertent skin puncture. 6) it is highly recommended for the patients whose teeth are available for maxillomandibular fixation. The two male patients were diagnosed as bilateral condylar and symphyseal fracture of the mandible. They restored stable occlusion and functional mandibular movement only by a simplified technique of maxillomandibular fixation.

This case report introduces a 74-year-old male patient who visited retention deficiency of the mandibular implant overdenture, which was fabricated 20 years ago. When the existing dentures were used, the vertical dimension was reduced, the maxillary complete denture lacked lip support and retention, and the mandibular overdenture lacked clip retention due to damage to the bar attachment. After removing the damaged bar attachment, it was replaced with a ball attachment, and impressions were taken using the DENTCA^TM Tray and then the vertical dimension was measured. The gothic arch tracing was performed to record the centric relation. Obtained impressions were scanned and the shape of final dentures was designed using software and try-in dentures were fabricated using 3D printer. After evaluating the occlusal plane, occlusal relationship, facial shape, and pronunciation using the try-in dentures, the bite registration was recorded, and the final denture was manufactured based on this. The inner surface of the denture was adjusted and bilateral balanced occlusion was formed, and the housing was connected to the mandibular denture by a direct method. This case reports have shown satisfactory resultin recovering improved retention and esthetic outcome by increasing the vertical dimension and the lip support using CAD-CAM technique and the ball attachment.

This paper addresses issues encountered in measuring the general, 6-degree-of-freedom motion of a human head, A complete mathematical description for measuring the head motion using the six-accelerometer configured bite-bar is suggested, The description shows that the six-axis vibration cannot be completely obtained without the roll, pitch and yaw angular velocity components, A new method of estimating the three orthogonal (roll, pitch and yaw) angular velocities from the six acceleration measurements is introduced. The estimated angular velocities are shown to enable further quantitative error analysis in measuring the translational and angular accelerations at the head. To make this point clear, experimental results are also illustrated in this paper. They show that when the effects of angular velocities are neglected in the head vibration measurement the maximum percentage errors were observed to be more than $3 \%$ for the angular acceleration of the head and to be close to $5 \%$ for its translational acceleration, respectively. It means that the inclusion of all the angular velocity dependent acceleration components gives more accurate measurement of the head vibration.
