Apical surgery cuts off the apical root and the crown-to-root ratio becomes unfavorable. Crown-to-root ratio has been applied to periodontally compromised teeth. Apical root resection is a different matter from periodontal bone loss. The purpose of this paper is to review the validity of crown-to-root ratio in the apically resected teeth. Most roots have conical shape and the root surface area of coronal part is wider than apical part of the same length. Therefore loss of alveolar bone support from apical resection is much less than its linear length.The maximum stress from mastication concentrates on the cervical area and the minimum stress was found on the apical 1/3 area. Therefore apical root resection is not so harmful as periodontal bone loss. Osteotomy for apical resection reduces longitudinal width of the buccal bone and increases the risk of endo-perio communication which leads to failure. Endodontic microsurgery is able to realize 0 degree or shallow bevel and precise length of root resection, and minimize the longitudinal width of osteotomy. The crown-to-root ratio is not valid in evaluating the prosthodontic prognosis of the apically resected teeth. Accurate execution of endodontic microsurgery to preserve the buccal bone is essential to avoid endo-perio communication.

16 healthy teeth extracted have been selected and their color and structural change have been observed at the fixed temperatures of $200^{\circ}F$., $400^{\circ}F$., $600^{\circ}F$., and $800^{\circ}F$. respectively at the intervals of 10min. 30min and 60min. The results were as follows: 1) $200^{\circ}F$ Groop: At the 60 minutes interval, crown surface shows pattern simliars to mottled teeth and roots take on light yellowish colar and interglobular dentin tends to be rough. 2) $400^{\circ}C$ Groop: at the 30 minutes interval, cracks begin to show in the direction of long axis of the teeth and crown surface have been observed on the verge of fracture at the 60 minutes interval. 3) $600^{\circ}F$ Groop: Crowns take on grayish-white color thoroughout 10, 30 and 60 minutes intervals and roots reveal black color. Moreover the seperation of enamel from dentin has been confirmed at the 60 minutes interval and inner dentin has changed black. 4) $800^{\circ}F$ Groop: Crowns take on the same grayish-white color as at the $600^{\circ}F$ at the 10, 30 and 60 minutes intervals and roots reveal gray color at the 30 and 60 minutes intervals, while parts of the crown have fractured at the 10 minutes interval. Inner dentin has turned gray at the 60 minutes interval.

This study was intended to investigate the effect of mesiodistal crown widths of the anterior teeth on the incisor relationship and to determine whether incisor width ratio and anterior width ratio could be used to assess interarch tooth width harmony. From the casts taken from 63 subjects, 26 of open bite, 18 of deep bite and 19 of normal over bite with age of 17-20, mesiodistal crown widths of maxillary and mandibular 6 anterior teeth were measured with Boley gauge. On the basis of tooth measurements, anterior and incisor width ratio were calculated. The cephalograms were taken from same subjects to measure the degree of over bite and over jet and to compare the craniofacial bony structures between open bite, deep bite and normal over bite. Correlations among the anterior width ratio, incisor width ratio, over bite and over jet were calculated. The results were as follows. 1. There were no differences in mesiodistal widths of anterior teeth, incisor width ratio and anterior width ratio between open bite, deep bite and normal over bite. 2. The incisor width ratio and anterior width ratio can be useful in the assessment of tooth width harmony because the incisor width ratio and anterior width ratio were stable statistically and significantly correlated with each other. 3. Over bite and over jet were not correlated with incisor width ratio and anterior width ratio.

This case report presents two maxillary anterior cases for clinical crown lengthening by forced eruption. In the first case, clinical crown of maxillary right lateral incisor was almost lost by fracture. Forced eruption using intracoronal splint and elastic thread accomplished vertical root movement successfully. Then, post & core was inserted and final restoration was harmonious with adjacent teeth. In the second case, the crown portion of maxillary right central incisor was almost mutilated by secondary caries. Forced eruption using removable Hawley appliance and elastic accomplished vertical root movement successfully. Then, post & core was inserted and final restoration was placed. In conclusion, clinical crown lengthening by vertical root movement can be accomplished by a simple appliance without any sacrifice of periodontal support in selected patients. A clinical crown so created can be restored to adequate function and arch integrity without compromising adjacent teeth. Therefore, forced eruption is preferred in the anterior region of the dentition where esthetics is of major concern.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between gingival thickness (GT) and keratinized gingiva width (KGW), papilla height (PH), and crown ratio (CR) by employing transgingival probing and an intraoral scanner (IOS). Methods: This cross-sectional study examined 360 maxillary anterior teeth from 60 patients. GT was assessed using transgingival probing with an endodontic spreader. KGW, CR, and PH were measured using an IOS. One-way analysis of variance, the Student's t-test, and Spearman correlation coefficients were employed for statistical analysis. Results: Higher GT was significantly associated with thinner KGW in the central region (P=0.019). There was no statistically significant difference in GT between teeth (P=0.06). PH was lower in lateral teeth than in canines (P=0.047), with a PH of 2.99 mm in lateral teeth. The KGW was narrower in canines than in central teeth (P=0.007). A moderate correlation was observed between KGW and PH in the central region (P=0.01), while a weak negative correlation was found between KGW and CR (P=0.043). Conclusions: A moderate negative correlation was found between GT and KGW, as well as between PH and KGW in central teeth. In contrast, a weak negative correlation existed between CR and KGW. The PH (2.99 mm) was lower in lateral teeth than in canines. The traditional paradigm, which suggests a positive correlation between KGW and GT, was reevaluated by measuring KGW using an IOS.

본 연구는 PET-CT 검사를 시행할 때 치과보철물에 의해 발생되는 CT의 HU(Hounsfield Unit) 값을 금속의 종류에 따라 측정하고, PET 영상의 왜곡정도와 표준섭취계수(SUV)의 변화를 확인하여 영상 판독 시 오류의 감소방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 실험방법은 실제 치아와 메탈 크라운, 골드크라운, 티타늄, 지르코니아의 치과보철물을 이용하여 PET-CT 검사를 실시하였다. 일반 치아와 비교한 결과 HU 값이 증가함에 따라 SUV 값이 증가되는 것을 확인하였고, 메탈 크라운, 티타늄, 지르코니아의 SUV 값은 37% 정도 증가되었고, 골드 크라운에서는 45.4%로 가장 많이 증가했다. 그리고 일반치아, 메탈크라운, 티타늄, 지르코니아에서 영상 왜곡은 미미했지만, 골드 크라운에서는 선속경화현상이 심하게 발생하였고, 영상 왜곡이 나타났다. 따라서 치과보철물의 금속종류는 SUV 값에 영향을 미치기 때문에 치과 보철물 중에서 골드 재질을 사용한 환자를 진단할 때에는 영상 판독 시 보정된 PET 영상보다는 NAC(무보정) PET 영상을 확인한다면 판독에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.
