측모두부방사선 사진은 임상적으로 쉽게 드러나지 않은 치아와 골격간의 상세한 관계를 나타내주며, 이것을 계측 분석하는 다양한 방법들이 소개되어 임상에 적용되고 있다. 이 중 Kim's analysis는 수직피개(overbite)의 지표로 ODI(Overbite Depth Indicator), 전후방적 부조화의 지표로 APDI(Anteroposterior Dysplasia Indicator). 그리고 이들의 합인CF(Combination Factor)를 제시하였다. 또 CF에 상하악의 절치각과 안모의 돌출도를 고려하여 EI(Extraction Index)를 산출하였다. 이러한 분석법에 이용되는 각 계측치들이 정상교합자와 III급 부정교합자에서 어떻게 분포하며 어떤 차이를 보이는가를 조사하기 위해 본 연구를 시행하였다. 골격이 조화로우며 안모가 단정한 7세부터 9세의 정상교합자와 동일한 연령의 III급 부정교합자 141명의 아동을 대상으로 하여 Kim's analysis에 이용되는 계측항목들을 통계적으로 분석하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 정상교합자와 III급부정교합자의 비교에서 ODI, APDI, IIA, UL은 유의한 차이를 보였으나, CF와 EI는 통계적인 유의차가 없었다(P<0.01). 2. 정상교합자에서 ODI, APDI, IIA의 평균은 각각 72.63, 80.47, 121.37이었다. 3. III급 부정교합자 ODI, APDI, IIA의 평균은 각각 64.46, 87.31, 129.80이었다. 4. ODI와 APDI의 Pearson 상관계수는 -0.576으로 역상관관계를 나타내었다. 5. EI와 다른 계측치들간의 상관관계는 CF(0.777), LL(-0.607), UL(-0.588), IIA(0.485), APDI(0.444), ODI(0.304)의 순서였다. 이것은 발치분석을 하는데 있어 상순과 하순의 돌출도가 가장 민감하게 반영된다는 것을 암시한다.

There are variations in regional cranial and facial balance as a normal developmental process and regional imbalances often tend to compensate each other to provide functional equilibrium. This study was designed to analyse the patterns of morphologic harmony and inharmony inherent in normal occlusion and malocclusion. The subjects consisted of 92 individuals with normal occlusion and 60 Class III malocclusion patients. Their lateral cephalograms were traced and analysed using the counterpart analysis described by Enlow. The normal occlusion group was divided into Normal Types A and B according to the relative positions of Points A and B. The following conclusions were reached: 1 The normal occlusion consisted of $28.3\%$ of Normal Type A and $69.6\%$ of Normal Type B. 2. The Normal Type A and B differed from each other in the morphology of the cranial base, the mandibular ramus and corpus, and the functional occlusal plane. The Normal Type B showed considerable mandibular protrusion effect in the effective dimension and alignment of the above factors. 3. Most normal individuals showed some degree of disharmony among morphologic factors but the deviations were relatively small. 4. The Normal Type B was less balanced than the Normal Type A. 5. More regional imbalances were involved in Class III malocclusion and the imbalances were more severe.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of the chincap therapy on the craniofacial structure in persons with skeletal Class III malocclusion. The patients selected for this study were treated with extra-oral chincap therapy only. Both control and treatment samples were obtained from Seoul National University Hospital where these longitudinal data were gathered. 55 treated patients and 14 control patients were studied. The mean ages at the 1st evaluation was 8 years 3 months in the treatment sample and 9 years 4 months in the control sample. The duration of chincap therapy was variable but averaged 2 years of treatment. Post-treatment observation procedeeded for 1 year 2 months. Active treatment and post treatment effects were evaluated. The results were as follows: 1. Neither significant restraint nor acceleration of growth was found in the cranial base and maxilla during treatment. 2. A distal rotation of the mandibular complex was seen. 3. Some amount of restraint of growth was found in mandibular body length, ramus height, mandibular length during treatment. 4. The genial angle was reduced. 5. After removal of the chin-cap, forward displacement of the mandible took place.
