To establish the ideal occlusal relationship, the values of tooth size and ratio must be in a normal range. In this study, the means and standard deviations of Bolton's anterior ratio and overall ratio using mesiodistal dimensions of teeth measured on diagnostic models of 334 Korean malocclusion patients were calculated and differences in Bolton ratio according to the groups of malocclusion patients were studied. Also the changes that can occur in overall ratio before and after hypothetical tooth extractions were observed. The results are as follows. 1. The mean anterior ratio of Korean malocclusion patients was $78.0\;{\pm}\;2.69%$, and the mean overall ratio was $91.56\;{\pm}\;2.28%$. 2. The largest value of tooth size ratio could be found in Class III group, followed by Class I and Class II groups in order. However there was no statically significant difference. 3. The values of overall ratio reduced significantly after premolar extractions in all malocclusion groups, which was much more significant in the extraction of upper second premolar and lower first premolar(U5L4) or upper second premolar and lower second premolar(U5L5). 4. The values of overall ratio reduced significantly after premolar extractions in all 3 groups divided based on Bolton ratio, which was much more significant in the extraction of upper second premolar and lower first premolar(U5L4) or upper second premolar and lower second premolar(U5L5).

Bolton 분석이 치아크기 부조화를 예측하기 위해 널리 사용되고 있지만 그 정확도에 대해서는 의문이 제기되어왔다. 이에 본 연구는 부정교합자를 대상으로 하여 실제 전치부 부조화가 나타나는 양상을 조사하고. 그것에 영향을 주는 요인에 대해서 평가하고자 하였다.. 연구대상은 다양한 부정교합(Class I. Class II, Class III. Class III surgery)을 가졌으며, 교정치료를 마친 80명의 환자들로 구성되었다. 치료 전 모형, 치료 후 모형으로부터 얻어진 셋업 모형 그리고 치료 전후 측모 두부 X-선 계측사진을 분석하였으며 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 한국인 부정교합자의 전치부 Bolton ratio는 Bolton의 표본 및 한국인 정상교합자 표본과 비교해 보았을 때 평균, 표준편차범위가 다소 크게 나타났다. 실제 전치부 부조화는 상악의 부족(deficiency)을 보이는 경우가 상악의 과잉(excess)을 보이는 경우보다 많았다. 전치부 Bolton ratio로부터 예측한 전치부 부조화는 셋업 모형을 통해서 얻은 실제 전치부 부조화와 비교해 버았을 때 차이를 보였다 (p<0.05). 성별 및 부정교합군은 실제 전치부 부조화에 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다 (p>005). 수직피개와 상악 치아 절단연 두께는 실제 전치부 부조화와 상관관계가 거의 없는 것으로 나타났다. 다중회귀분석 결과 실제 전치부 부조화에는 치료 전 모형의 전치부 Bolton ratio, 치료 후 상악 전치가 교합평면과 이루는 각, 치료 후 절치간각, 치료 전 상악 우측 측절치 폭경 등의 요인이 기여하는 것으로 나타났다.

Outcome of esthetic ceramic restorations are affected by tooth size, gingival contour, occlusal relationship, etc. For this reason, demand of orthodontic treatment before esthetic ceramic restoration is increasing. If a Bolton ratio discrepancy, a problem of the maxillary incisor's vertical position, a problem of inclination of anterior teeth, a pathogenic occlusion is existed, a pre-prosthodontic orthodontics should be accomplished. These problems can be satisfactory only after the prosthetic treatment is performed after orthodontic treatment. When orthodontic treatment is given, it should be treated with the following principle. 1. Treat it in the direction of functioning occlusion. 2. Keep the patient's stable occlusal scheme. 3. Treat the teeth by considering the average tooth size and Bolton ratio. Ortho-Prostho combined treatment with optimal treatment plan can lead a patient's function, esthetics, and long-term stability.

The prupose of this study was to obtain standard measurements of the tooth size, Bolton ratio, width and length of dental arch and basal arch, overbite and overjet of the children who have normal dentition. The plaster cast of 97 children(47 boys and 50 girls) among the contestants in 1992, 1994, 1995 Healthy Dentition contest in Seoul were measured and following results were obtained. 1. Means and standard deviations of the mesio-distal maximum width of the permanent teeth, Bolton ratio, width and length of the dental arch and basal arch of the upper and lower dentition and overbite and overjet of the children were obtained. 2. Mesio-distal width of the teeth, width and length of the dental arch and basal arch of the upper and lower dentition of the boys were larger than those of the girls. 3. Bolton Overall ratio, Anterior ratio and overjet of the boys were larger than those of the girls and overbite of the boys were smaller than those of the girls, but no significant differences were noted between the boys and the girls(p>0.05). 4. In the comparision of the Healthy Dentition Contestants with Korean adults of Shur, all teeth of the Contestants were larger than those of Korean adults, especially upper and lower bicuspids(p<0.01).

Purpose: This study was performed to evaluate the dimensional accuracy of digital dental models constructed from cone-beam computed tomographic (CBCT) scans of polyvinyl siloxane (PVS) impressions and cast scan models. Materials and Methods: A pair of PVS impressions was obtained from 20 subjects and scanned using CBCT (resolution, 0.1 mm). A cast scan model was constructed by scanning the gypsum model using a model scanner. After reconstruction of the digital models, the mesio-distal width of each tooth, inter-canine width, and inter-molar width were measured, and the Bolton ratios were calculated and compared. The 2 models were superimposed and the difference between the models was measured using 3-dimensional analysis. Results: The range of mean error between the cast scan model and the CBCT scan model was -0.15 mm to 0.13 mm in the mesio-distal width of the teeth and 0.03 mm to 0.42 mm in the width analysis. The differences in the Bolton ratios between the cast scan models and CBCT scan models were 0.87 (anterior ratio) and 0.72 (overall ratio), with no significant difference (P>0.05). The mean maxillary and mandibular difference when the cast scan model and the CBCT scan model were superimposed was 53 ㎛. Conclusion: There was no statistically significant difference in most of the measurements. The maximum tooth size difference was 0.15mm, and the average difference in model overlap was 53 ㎛. Digital models produced by scanning impressions at a high resolution using CBCT can be used in clinical practice.

Orthodontists have experienced the treatment of cases with three lower incisors. Occasionally a lower incisor was either congenitally missing or so seriously damaged by injury or disease that its removal presented the best prospect for the patient. Sometimes the intentional extraction of a lower incisor is needed to produce enhanced functional and esthetic results with minimal orthodontic manipulation. Such cases have unfavorable anterior tooth size discrepancies and present difficulties in achieving good occlusal results. However such difficulties can be overcome by the sensible diagnosis and treatment plan. Three different cases are presented and the conclusions are listed. 1. It is important for orthodontist who tries to treat three lower incisor cases to measure and calculate accurately the degree of deviation of tooth size and morphology and the anterior tooth size ratio. 2. A diagnostic setup model should be made to determine whether the incisor extraction is appropriate and space closure is needed or not. It is the best way to be sure that the occlusal results, including overbite and overjet, will be acceptable and how far the degree of midline deviation is. It also shows the amount of interproximal reduction to achieve an acceptable occlusal result. 3. The class I relationship between the upper canine and the lower one must be obtained to establish the canine rise during eccentric movement by the concept of mutually protective occlusion. It also helps to maintain the stable occlusal result.
