Statement of problem: Arrangement and angulation of clinical crown is very important for esthetic restoration in the upper anterior dentition. However, there was no clinical criteria to mesial angulation of the crown for Korean. Purpose: This study was undertaken to estimate the mesial angulation of the crown of the anterior teeth and the Oh's E-triangle made of the inter-pupillary line and the mesial inclination lines of the canines. Material and Method: 270 portraits of Korean were used for this study. The mesial angulation of the upper anterior teeth and the relationship of the inter-pupillary line and the mesial inclination lines of the canines were measured with the tools of PhotoShop software on the scanned images. Results: The angulation between the clinical crowns having a same name in the upper anterior dentition were $3.6^{\circ}$ between the central incisors, $8.6^{\circ}$ between the lateral incisors, and $13.6^{\circ}$ between the canines. There was no significance according to occupation and gender( P > 0.05). The ratio of height to base line of Oh's E-triangle was 4.47. 81.6% of the subjects showed the mesial inclination line of the canine passed by mesial border area of pupil. Conclusion: These data for Korean would be useful clinically to give the esthetic arrangement and to make the contour of upper anterior teeth.

The purpose of this study was to compare the fracture strength of the IPS Empress ceramic crown according to the incisal reduction(2.0mm, 2.5mm, 3.0mm) and axial inclination ($4^{\circ}$, $8^{\circ}$, $12^{\circ}$) of the lower canine. After 10 metal dies were made for each group, the IPS Empress ceramic crowns were fabricated and each crown was cemented on each metal die with resin cement. The cemented crowns mounted on the testing jig were inclined 30 degrees and a universal testing machine was used to measure the fracture strength. The results of this study were as follows : 1. The fracture strength of the ceramic crown with 3.0mm depth and $12^{\circ}$ inclination was the highest(1377N). Crowns of 2.0mm depth and $4^{\circ}$ inclination had the lowest strength (731 N). 2. There were no significant differences of the fracture strength by axial inclination in same incisal reduction group. 3. The fracture mode of the crowns was similar. Most of fracture lines began at the loading area and extended through proximal surface perpendicular to the margin irrespective of incisal reduction.

Estimating above-ground biomass is important in establishing an applicable methodology of Measurement, Reporting and Verification (MRV) System for Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation-Plus (REDD+). We developed an estimation model of diameter at breast height (DBH) from IKONOS-2 image that led to above-ground biomass estimation (AGB). The IKONOS image was preprocessed with dark object subtraction and topographic effect correction prior to watershed segmentation for tree crown delineation. Compared to the field observation, the overall segmentation accuracy was 64%. Crown detection percent had a strong negative correlation to tree density. In addition, satellite-based crown area had the highest correlation with the field measured DBH. We then developed the DBH allometric model that explained 74% of the data variance. In average, the estimated DBH was very similar to the measured DBH as well as for AGB. Overall, this method can potentially be applied to estimate AGB over a relatively large and remote tropical forest in Northern Borneo.

Amelogenesis imperfecta represents a group of hereditary conditions that manifest enamel defects without evidence of generalized or systemic disorders. These enamel disorders are apparently heterogeneous in the basic chemical structure, resulting in a diverse presentation of clinical characteristics. The reported prevalence of amelogenesis imperfecta varies from 1 in 14,000-16,000 to 1.4 in 1,000 depending on specific population studied with the autosomal dominant hypocalcification type of amelogenesis imperfecta believed to be the least prevalent. The most widely accepted current classification system for delineating the amelogenesis imperfecta types considers the mode of inheritance and clinical manifestations. Three major groups are recognized; hypoplastic, hypocalcified, and hypomaturation types. Delineating specific types of amelogenesis imperfecta can be confusing due to the phenotypical similarity of many forms and that the most recent classification lists 14 different types. A 12 year-old female patient came to our pediatric dentistry clinic complaining of the ugly shape and color of her teeth, especially the upper front area. Although the goal of the treatment was mainly focused on the improvement of patient's esthetics, longevity of the restorations was also considered in selecting the appropriate restorative system, resin jacket crown, which can satisfy the both aspects.

The purpose of this study was to compare the fracture strength of the IPS Empress ceramic crown according to the occlusal depth (1.5mm, 2.0mm, 2.5mm) and axial inclination ($4^{\circ},\;8^{\circ},\;12^{\circ}$) of the lower First Molar. After 10 metal dies were made for each group, the IPS Empress ceramic crowns were fabricated and cemented with resin cement(Bistite resin cement, Tokuyama Soda Co. LTD., Japan). The cemented crowns were mounted on the testing jig with inclination of 30 degrees and the universal testing machine(Zwick Z020, Zwick, Germany)was used to measure the fracture strength. The results of this study were as follows : 1. The fracture strength of the ceramic crown with 2.5mm depth and $12^{\circ}$ inclination was the highest (1789 N). Crowns of 1.5mm depth and $4^{\circ}$ inclination had the lowest strength (1091 N). 2. There were no significant differences in the fracture strength by axial inclination of the same occlusal depth group. 3. Most fracture lines began at the loading area and extended through proximal surface perpendicular to the margin, irrespective of occlusal depth. Size of fragment was affected by the amount of occlusal reduction.

Synthetic resins were combined 1-aza-12-crown-4 macrocyclic ligand with styrene divinylbenzene copolymer having 1%, 2%, 8%, and 16% crosslink by a substitution reaction. These synthetic resins were confirmed by chlorine content, elementary analysis, SEM, surface area, and IR-spectrum. As the results of the effects of pH, crosslink of synthetic resin, and dielectric constant of a solvent on metal ion adsorption for resin adsorbent, the metal ions showed high adsorption at pH 3 or over. Adsorption selectivity for the resin in ethanol solvent was the order of uranium ($UO_2{^{2+}}$) > cobalt ($Co^{2+}$) > dysprosium ($Dy^{3+}$) ion, adsorbability of the metal ion was the crosslink in order of 1%, 2%, 8%, and 16% and it was increased with the lower dielectric constant. In addition, theses metal ions could be separated in the column with 1% crosslink resin by using nitric acid (pH 2.0) as an eluent.

As a general treatment modality of subgingival tooth defect in aethetic area, implant or crown and bridge therapy after extraction of affected tooth can be used. But as more conservative treatment, crown lengthening can be considered and not to lose periodontal attachment and impair aethetic appearance, surgical extrusion can be considered as a treatment of choice. In this case report, 3 cases of surgical extrusion was represented and appropriate time for initiation of endodontic treatment according to the post-surgical tooth mobility was investigated. In 8 patient who has subgingival tooth defect in aethetic area, intracrevicular incision is performed and flap was reflected with care not to injure interproximal papillae. With forcep or periotome, tooth was luxated and sutured in properely extruded position according to biologic width with or without $180^{\circ}$ rotation. 8 cases show favorable short and long term results. In some cases, surgical extrusion with $180^{\circ}$ rotation can minimized extent of extrusion and semi-rigid fixation without apical bone graft seems to secure good prognosis. In 8 cases, endodontic treatment started about 3 weeks after surgery. This time corresponds with the moment when mobility of extruded tooth became 1 degree and this results concide with other previous reports. If it is done on adequate case selection and surgical technique, surgical extrusion seems to be a good treatment modalilty to replace the implant restoration in aethetic area.
