Purpose: This study will examine the differences among the college dental morphology textbooks in light of their contents and learning objectives through which we will propose an optimal way of consolidating those differences found. Methods: Five college textbooks adopted in the dental related departments were selected by random and the overview and subdivisions of contents were compared and closely analysed with regards to the learning objectives. Results: Firstly, all of the dental morphology textbooks cover the learning objectives of the dental morphology subject, especially in the area of the overview of dental morphology, the permanent tooth, deciduous tooth. Only the dentistry textbooks explain the learning objective of the occlusion. Secondly, differences in content were found in the area of component tissue and around tissue, dental formula of deciduous teeth, spinous process, buccal pit, enamel projection, curve symbol, tip of cusp position of proximal surface of permanent mandibular canines, buccal cusp position of permanent mandibular second premolars. Conclusion: It is imperative to delineate some meaningful and critical differences in contents among the dental morphology textbooks and reflect this to each and every textbook to be published as a supplementary information guide or index.

This study was conducted on 54 freshmen of the department of dental technology in D University to examine the effect of dental morphological practice mobile application utilization on the students' perception of class and satisfaction with learning. Major results of the study showed that satisfaction and utility towards functions of mobile application strengthened positive perception of dental morphology class, leading to improvement of satisfaction with learning, which suggested that functional convenience and utility in the use of applications were the effective factors for increasing the satisfaction with learning. Those results need to be given important consideration in designing the class using the mobile applications.

본 연구에서는 치열심미지수(DAI)의 10가지 교합적 요소와 악안면 형태와의 상호관계를 단변수와 다변수 통계처리 기법을 이용하여 조사하였다. 자료는 교정치료를 위해 내원한 영구치열을 가진 182명(남자 79명, 여자 103명)의 치료전 연구모형과 측모 두부규격방사선 사진으로부터 얻었다. 악안면 형태를 분석하기 위해서 DiPaolo의 사변형 분석 방법을 이용하였으며 치열심미지수의 10가지 교합적 요소는 Jenny, Cons 등에 의해 발표된 진단기준에 따라 각 항목을 측정하여 기록하였다. 또한 안모의 심미관계도 조사하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 치열심미지수의 구성요소중 결손치수, 절치부 총생도, 절치부 공극도, 정중이개량, 상악전치부 최대 변이량등 대부분의 구성요소가 악안면 형태와 상관관계를 보이지 않았다. 2. 치열심지지수의 구성요소중 상악전치부 수평피개량, 하악전치부 수평피개량, 전 후방 구치관계 등은 시상면적 악골관계를 나타내는 골격요소인 MdBL/MxDL, MdLL/MxLL, MdSL/MxSL들과 상관관계를 보였다. 3. 치열심미지수의 구성요소중 전치부 수직 개방교합량은 수직적 악골관계를 나타내는 ALFM/AUFH, MPA, SA등과 미약한 상관관계를 보였다. 4. 교합의 여러 측면을 기초로 한 치열심미지수는 악안면 형태와 무관하였다. 5. 교정치료 필요 유무의 선별 및 부정교합의 심도에 관한 포괄적인 평가에는 어느 특정 지수에 의존하기보다는 교합적 요소와 악안면 골격적 요소 모두에 기초를 두어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of deep learning techniques to classify the morphology and severity of peri-implantitis bone defects based on periapical radiographs. Materials and Methods: Based on a pre-trained and fine-tuned ResNet-50 deep learning algorithm, the morphology and severity of peri-implantitis bone defects on periapical radiographs were classified into six groups (class I/II and slight/moderate/severe). Accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 scores were calculated to measure accuracy. Result: A total of 971 dental images were included in this study. Deep-learning-based classification achieved an accuracy of 86.0% with precision, recall, and F1 score values of 84.45%, 81.22%, and 82.80%, respectively. Class II and moderate groups had the highest F1 scores (92.23%), whereas class I and severe groups had the lowest F1 scores (69.33%). Conclusion: The artificial intelligence-based deep learning technique is promising for classifying the morphology and severity of peri-implantitis. However, further studies are required to validate their feasibility in clinical practice.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the influence of inorganic composition and filler particle morphology on the mechanical properties of different self-adhesive resin cements (SARCs). Materials and Methods: Three SARCs including RelyX Unicem-2 (RUN), Maxcem Elite (MAX), and Calibra Universal (CAL) were tested. Rectangular bar-shaped specimens were prepared for flexural strength (FS) and flexural modulus (FM) and determined by a 3-point bending test. The Knoop microhardness (KHN) and top/bottom microhardness ratio (%KHN) were conducted on the top and bottom faces of disc-shaped samples. Sorption (Wsp) and solubility (Wsl) were evaluated after 24 hours of water immersion. Filler morphology was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). FS, FM, %KHN, Wsp, Wsl, and EDS results were submitted to 1-way analysis of variance and Tukey's post-hoc test, and KHN also to paired t-test (α = 0.05). Results: SARC-CAL presented the highest FS value, and SARC-RUN presented the highest FM. SARC-MAX and RUN showed the lowest Wsp and Wsl values. KHN values decreased from top to bottom and the SARCs did not differ statistically. Also, all resin cements presented carbon, aluminum, and silica in their composition. SARC-MAX and RUN showed irregular and splintered particles while CAL presented small and regular size particles. Conclusions: A higher mechanical strength can be achieved by a reduced spread in grit size and the filler morphology can influence the KHN, as well as photoinitiators in the composition. Wsp and Wsl can be correlated with ions diffusion of inorganic particles.

Purpose: The present study investigated the outcomes of a newly-developed, simple, and practical nonsurgical treatment modality suitable for most forms of intrabony defects around failing dental implants using intrasulcular delivery of chlorhexidine solution and minocycline hydrochloride (HCl). Methods: Forty-five dental implants in 20 patients diagnosed with peri-implantitis were included. At baseline and the study endpoint, the probing pocket depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), and the presence of bleeding on probing (BOP) at 6 sites around each implant were recorded. The radiographic osseous defect morphology at the mesial or distal proximal aspect of each implant was classified as 1) narrow or wide and 2) shallow or deep. For a comparative analysis of bone changes according to the defect morphology, the distance from the implant shoulder to the most coronal bone-to-implant contact point (DIB) at the mesial and distal aspects of each implant was measured at baseline and the endpoint. Patients were scheduled to visit the clinic every 2-4 weeks for intrasulcular irrigation of chlorhexidine and delivery of minocycline HCl. Results: We observed statistically significant decreases in PPD, CAL, and BOP after treatment. At the endpoint, bone levels increased in all defects, regardless of the osseous morphology of the intrabony defect. The mean DIB change in deep defects was significantly greater than that in shallow defects. Although the mean bone gain in narrow defects was greater than in wide defects, the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusions: We propose that significant and sustainable improvements in both clinical and radiographic parameters can be expected when intrabony defects around dental implants are managed through a simple nonsurgical approach involving combined intrasulcular chlorhexidine irrigation and local delivery of minocycline HCl.

A variety of titanium (Ti) and its alloys are used in the clinical procedures of bone regeneration for periodontal and dental implant therapies. This study was performed to determine the effect of different surface dental implant materials on biologic responses of a MG-63 human osteoblast-like cell line. MG-63 cells were cultured on Ti coated with hydroxyapatite (HA), calcium metaphosphate (CMP), anodized (A), which compared with non-coated Ti (control). The appearances of surface of dental implant materials and the morphology of these cells were assessed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The gene expression profiles of MG-63 cells cultured on Ti were examined by human cDNA microarray (1,152 elements). The expression of several genes was up- and down-regulated by different surfaces of dental implant materials. Interesting, the genes correlated with cellular adhesion and extra cellular matrix (ECM) formation were enhanced, in accordance surface morphology of the dental implant materials used.
