Recently, straight-wire appliance is widely used with great concern in clinical orthodontic field. The purpose of this study was to collect the information of the straight-wire appliance and to determine the crown inclination in clinical orthodontics. The author analyzed the study model of 78 individuals with normal occlusion. The obtained results were as follows. 1. Mean, maximum value, minimum value and standard deviation of crown inclination of upper and lower teeth were obtained. 2. The lingual crown inclination of upper tooth had constant value from first premolar through second molar, the lingual crown inclination of lower tooth progressively increased from canine through second molar. 3. As Howes' ratio was decreased, the crown inclination of upper incisors was increased. 4. Narrowing the upper arch, the crown inclination of upper incisors was increased.

PURPOSE. The present study aimed to investigate the relationships between the crown form of the upper central incisor and their labial inclination, overbite, and overjet. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Maxillary and mandibular casts of 169 healthy dentitions were subjected to 3D dental scanning, and analyzed using CAD software. The crown forms were divided into tapered, square, and ovoid based on the mesiodistal dimensions at 20% of the crown height to that at 40%. The degree of labial inclination of the upper central incisor was defined as the angle between the occlusal plane and the line connecting the incisal edge and tooth cervix. The incisal edges of the right upper and lower central incisor that in contact with lines parallel to the occlusal plane were used to determine the overbite and overjet. One-way ANOVA was performed to compare the labial inclination, overbite, and overjet among the crown forms. RESULTS. The crown forms were classified into three types; crown forms with a 20%/40% dimension ratio of 1.00±0.01 were defined as square, >1.01 as tapered, and <0.99 as ovoid. The labial inclination degree was the greatest in tapered and the least in square. Both overbite and overjet in tapered and ovoid were higher than those in square. CONCLUSION. Upper central incisor crown forms were related to their labial inclination, overbite, and overjet. It was suggested that the labial inclination, overbite, and overjet should be taken into consideration for the prosthetic treatment or restoring the front teeth crowns.

Purpose: This study is to present a standard value for clinical crown angulation and inclination required in laboratory process and see if the value can be used for actual laboratory process. Methods: In order to find out a standard value for clinical crown angulation and inclination, this study made a study model of normal occlusion of 21 females in twenties. The clinical crown angulation and inclination of both six-maxillary and six-mandibular anterior teeth are measured by Set-up Model Checker. From the measured value above, the mean and standard deviation of the twelve teeth are obtained, and then the mean of the teeth between right and left side is calculated. Results: Each clinical crown angulation of maxillary central incisor, lateral incisor, and canine is like this; $1.0^{\circ}{\pm}1.3^{\circ}$, $3.0^{\circ}{\pm}1.3^{\circ}$, and $5.0^{\circ}{\pm}1.4^{\circ}$. In case of mandibular, each degree is like this; $0.6^{\circ}{\pm}1.1^{\circ}$, $1.5^{\circ}{\pm}1.1^{\circ}$, and $4.1^{\circ}{\pm}1.1^{\circ}$. Each clinical crown inclination of maxillary central incisor, lateral incisor, and canine is like this; $6.1^{\circ}{\pm}1.8^{\circ}$, $4.5^{\circ}{\pm}1.9^{\circ}$, and $-6.2^{\circ}{\pm}1.4^{\circ}$. In case of mandibular, each degree is like this; $0.3^{\circ}{\pm}1.5^{\circ}$, $0.3^{\circ}{\pm}1.8^{\circ}$, and $-7.5^{\circ}{\pm}1.8^{\circ}$. Conclusion: As the result, the mean value for clinical crown angulation and inclination can be referred to actual laboratory process. However, the mean value is different from those of the precedent study and an unsatisfied one for adopting the standard value.

The objective of this study was to evaluate some clinical aspect of the crown inclination in Korean's naturally occuring optimal occlusion, and to statistically compare the crown inclination at Andrews' FA points group and another bracket slot level group based on marginal ridges. The materials consisted of study models of 30 patients (14; Korean's males, 16; Korean's females) who have nonorthodontic normal occlusion. The results were as follows; 1. Mean, standard deviation, range of clinical inclination in the Andrews' FA points and another bracket slot level were obtained. 2. Statistically difference between Andrews' FA points group and bracket slot level group based on marginal ridge was non significant (p > 0.05). But standard deviation and range in FA points group was more stability than marginal ridge group. 3. A lingual crown inclination at FA points in the upper posterior teeth existed (canines through molars). 4. The lingual crown inclination at FA points in the lower dentition progressively increased from the incisors through the second molars.

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 upper first premolar. After 10 metal dies were made fir 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 were : 1. The fracture strength of the ceramic crown with 2.5mm depth and $12^{\circ}$ inclination was the highest (630N). Crowns of 1.5mm depth and $4^{\circ}$ inclination had the lowest strength(378N). There were no significant differences of the fracture strength by axial inclination in same occlusal depth group. 2. 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 occlusal depth.

The objects of this study were to analyze the crown angulation, crown inclination, molar offset angle, and crown in and out of the Korean adults having normal occlusion. 14 subjects (7 male, 7 female) were chosen in the 80 subjects who had ideal occlusion and beautiful profile we thought. The casts were obtained from the subjects, and then they were scanned with 3-dimensional scanner machine. We analyzed them with computer program based upon Andrews methods and the following results were obtained. 1. We got the norm of the crown angulation, crown inclination, molar offset angle, and crown in and out in the Korean adults. 2. The analysis using 3 dimensional scanner and computer program was more fast and accurate than the manual methods.

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.
