We observed the orthopantomography taken by 800 children who came to our pedodontic department, School of Dentistry, S.N.U. and also got the incidence of supernumerary and congenital missing teeth as follows. (1) The children who had supernumerary or congenital missing teeth were 9.75% of all. (2) In incidence of supernumerary teeth, male was 0.50% higher than female. (3) Incidence of conginital missing teeth was 7.0% and male was 1.0% higher than female. (4) Incidence of congeintal missing teeth was mainly arised from mandible.

In an edentulous situation, the oral rehabilitation with complete denture is substantially different from treatment of natural teeth. The artificial teeth arrangement and occlusion are important factor for the stability of the denture. Bilateral balanced occlusion is that stability of the denture is attained when bilateral contacts exist throughout all excursion and static states of the denture during function and, artificial teeth are arrangement in neutral zone where the forces between the tongue and cheeks or lips are equal. This is how dentist make a favorable prognosis. Therefore, dentists are have to be a little more involved in the selection and arrangement of artificial teeth.

The first patient of this case was 13 year and 8 month old girl who had the Angle's class I malocclusion with uneruption of upper left central incisor and left canine. The second patient was 12 year old boy who had the Angle's class I malocclusion with uneruption of right central incisor. After surgical exposure of impacted teeth of those patients and bonding of attachment on exposed crown, those teeth were orthodontically pulled with removable appliances. The results were obtained as follow. 1. The functionally proper occlusion was established by guidance of the impacted teeth into the normal position in the arch. 2. Establishment of esthetic and balanced arch form was achieved. 3. The possibility of restorative prosthetic treatment induced by extraction of impacted teeth was eliminated. 4. The psychologic relief of pubertal patient who was very sensitive to facial esthetics was gained.

A mouthguard is a protective device normally worn on the upper jaw, to reduce injures to the teeth, jaws and surrounding soft tissues. It has a definite role in preventing injuries to the teeth and face and for this reason it is strongly recommended for all sporting activities where there is a risk of trauma to the teeth and associated structures. Mouthguards can be effective in reducing impact force to the teeth, and attributed to enhancement of postural control and muscle performance during teeth clenching. Although there is evidence that mouthguards reducing impact force to the teeth, and prevent orofacial trauma occurrence during sport practice, the influence of this device on athletic performance has not been systematically quantified. Nevertheless, wearing a dentally fitted laminated mouthguard of at least 3 mm thickness can be strongly recommended during sport practice.

Although the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) calculates oral health functional restriction rate and chewing discomfort rate every year, these two indicators are not all indicators of oral health. Therefore, indicators are needed to subdivide by age group and cover dental caries, periodontal disease, remaining teeth, and oral care use. The purpose of this study is to identify the key indicators of oral health in mature and middle age. The average number of existing natural teeth, the rates of 20 or more natural teeth, complaints of chewing discomfort, oral examination, periodontal disease and dental caries, were analyzed using KNHANES VI (2013-2015) as a complex sample. In the age group between 40 and 64, there were 25.2 natural teeth remaining, 91.4% natural teeth retention rate, 23% chewing discomfort rate, 34.7% oral examination rate, 38.7% periodontal disease prevalence, 6.46 the number of caries experience teeth, 21.4% interdental brush usage rate.

In the Pediatric Dentalc profession the occurrence rate intrusion of young permanent teeth is rather low, and the treatment method varies from one another. Intrusion of the teeth bring complications to the pulp and periodontal ligament, and thus the possibility of endodontic treatment increases. For the formation of calcific barriers, calcium hydroxide is used in young permanent teeth and this makes the final canal filling possible. In this case report, we will show two cases of young permanent teeth intrusion and the treatment methods to help assess the recognition of treatment for young permanent teeth intrusion.

Sixty non-vital primary molars of forty six children who were patients at the Pedodontic Department of Seoul University Hospital, aged from 2 years 7 months to 9 years 1 month were performed for coronal pulp therapy. For the evaluation of non-vital pulp therapy, the author observed those teeth both clinically and roentgenographically. The results were as follows: 1. Coronal therapy of non-vital tooth can be accepted as one of the ordinary methods at the view of the save of tooth, time and simplicity. 2. The results were satisfactory 78.3% clinically and 68.3% roentgenographically. 3. The dissatisfactory signs were a) Clinical view There were dissatisfactory signs on 13 cases. (1) 2 teeth had fistulous opening. (2) 11 teeth reacted to purcussion and mobility. b) Roentgenographical view There were dissatisfactory signs on 19 cases. (1) 13 teeth showed roentgenolucency at bifurcation area. (2) 2 teeth showed pathological root resorption. (3) 4 teeth showed periodontal thickening.

Food impaction between the implant prostheses and adjacent teeth is the most frequently observed problem. It may be caused by the migration of the adjacent teeth. This symptom may be observed at the mesial aspect of implant prostheses especially, and related with the multiple contributing factors including teeth vitality and antagonist. Idal proximal contact with optimal strength and shape should be made for preventing the food impaction. Shape of customized abutment and prosthesis should have optimal emergence profile. Long duration from the extraction to the delivery of implant prostheses, the adjacent teeth and antagonist teeth may have possibility of occlusal interferences. Remained teeth mobility can induce the food impaction regardless of interproximal contact strength. Occlusal adjustment to remove occlusal interferences can be a method for enhancing the stability of interproximal contact.

The fusion is an anomalous union of two or more tooth germ at some stage in the development process resulting in a decreased number of teeth in the dental arch. Fusion is common odontogenic anomaly but triplication of primary teeth is a rare phenomenon. We report a case of a 3 - year - old girl who visited our clinic for the pain on maxillary anterior tooth. The patient was diagnosed by the fusion of a the maxillary primary right central and lateral incisor with a supernumerary tooth and caries of dentine. And then, Endodontic treatment and composite resin restoration were performed on the triple teeth. After follow-up of 6 months period, there was no marked complications.

상악 전치부 고도손상 치아를 발거하고 임플란트를 하는 것도 예지성 높은 좋은 선택이지만, 마지막으로 한번 더 고도손상 치아를 살려보려는 노력은 치과의사와 환자간에 신뢰관계가 형성되어 있다면 해볼 수 있는 선택이다. 만약 치과의사와 환자가 서로 노력하여 장기간 유지에 성공한다면 더 두터운 신뢰관계를 만들어 줄 것이다.
