This investigation was performed to study the relationship of the dental midline(an imaginary line between the centeal incisors) to the philtrum. 2,400 subjects with natural dentitions were examined. The group of the subjects was composed of 1,560 men and 840 women who had all of the upper and lower six anteriors and 0 to 4 missing teeth. Ages of the subjects ranged from 18 to 27 years. The obtained results were as follow: 1. The rates of the subjects whose philtrum and maxillary dental midline coincided was 64.92% and that of the subjects whose upper and lower dental midlines coincided was 29.17%and these rates are statistically significant, when compared respectively with those of the subjects whose philtrum and maxillary dental midline, and whose upper and lower dental midline's didn't coincide. 2. The difference between rates for the two sexes is not statistically significant. 3. Tooth missing significantly decreases the rates of the coincidence of the upper and lower dental midlines but its influence on the rates of coincidence of the dental midline to the philtrum is not significant.

The success of the porcelain fused to gold alloy restoration depends not only on the choice of materials but to a larger degree on the technical skills. The porcelain fused to metal(PFM) alloys containing gold are commonly use for dental purposes in dental laboratory. The gold-colored alloys contain primarily gold, platinum, palladium, and silver, with minimum amounts of such metals as tin, iridium, or titanium. The purpose of this study is on the metal-porcelain fusing layer in porcelain fused to high gold alloy Principal results are as follows. The hardness number(Hv) of PFG is respectively $140.2{\pm}12.6$ in as-casted, $164.3{\pm}14.3$ in heat-treated, $186.6{\pm}20.4$ in fired-treated. The formation of the fusing(intermediate) layer caused by components fusing the interface of porcelain and gold alloy. The main components of the fusing(intermediate) layer are Na, Al, Si, K, Zn, Zr and Ce. The intermediate layer formed by the 2nd firing is more larger than the intermediate layer formed by the 1st firing.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was that For high school students in Busan, in order to provide basic data in selecting dental hygienists by establishing the correct perception and image of dental hygienists by identifying the image of dentists and career doctors who will choose dental hygienists. Methods : The comparison of group differences with dental hygienists' images was analyzed with independent sample t-test and one-way ANOVA. Correlation between image factors of dental hygienists was analyzed using Pearson's correction coefficient. Results : The image for dental hygienists averaged 3.87 points overall, while the average for each area of the image was 4.09 points for professional images, 4.07 points for business images, 4.08 points for personal images and 3.28 points for social images. When choosing a career path, 18.8 percent said they would not consider dental hygiene, and if they said they would consider dental hygiene, both work, professional, personal and social images were significantly high (p<.05). Professional and professional images (r=.975, p<.05) in the correlation between factors of dental hygienist images, personal and professional images (r=.942, p<.05), social and professional images (r=.865, p<.05), business and personal images (r=.924, p<.05), business image and social image (r=.858, p<.05), personal and social images (r=.882, p<.05) expressed a statistically significant amount of correlation. Conclusion : The study found that high school students' image of dental hygienists was rather positive, but their social image was rather low, and most students did not consider dental hygiene. Therefore, specific measures will be needed to build a desirable image for dental hygienists and positively recognize dental hygienists with active promotion and career experience for dental hygienists in the future.
