Stress is recognized as a major predisposing and/ or precipitating factor in long-lastig intractable chronic pain, such as temporomandibular disorders, headache, and other psychophysiological disorders. So it is necessary to detect physical and psychological changes induced by stress as soon as possible for positive treatment outcome. This study was performed to investigate the occurrence rate of stress symptoms according to anatomic region, type of symptom, and other personal and social factors. 859 subjects from general population answered the stress symptom questionnaire devised by the author and composed of 50 items. Data from the questionnaire were analyzed statistically with SPSS program and the results obtained were as follows : 1. Oral symptom which showed the highest frequency rate of 38.8% was vesicular lesion of the lip and cheek. The other symptoms with more 20% occurrence rate were ulcerative leion of lip and cheek, toothache, paresthesia of teeth, eruption of tongue, tongue coating and taste change in descending order. 2. In extraoral symptoms, ？데 disturbance was the item which showed the highest frequency rate of 62.0%, and the items for stiffness of suboccipital region and neck, headache, facial swelling, furuncle of face were answered more than 45% of the subjects whereas only 14.0% of the subjucts complained jaw pain under stress. 3. The better one who thought his or her health status was, the fewer items were answered and the difference of symptom frequency by dwelling place and by having hobby were shown in extraoral symptoms only. 4. For relief of stress symptoms, 79.2% of the subjects replied only to take a rest whereas not more than 13, 5% of the subjects visited dental clinic. Correlationship between symptom sites were very high.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the trabecular bone changes after alveolar bone grafting in unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) patients using a computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system. Materials and Methods: The occlusal radiographs taken from 50 UCLP patients were surveyed retrospectively. The images were categorized as: 50 images in group 0 (before bone grafting), 33 images in group 1 (one month after bone grafting), 24 images in group 2 (2-4 months after bone grafting), 15 images in group 3 (5-7 months after bone grafting), and 21 images in group 4 (8 or more months after bone grafting). Each image was grouped as either "non-cleft side" or "cleft side". The CAD system was used five times for each side to calculate the pixel area based on the mathematical morphology. Significant differences were found using a Wilcoxon signed ranks test or paired samples t test. Results: The pixel area showed a significant difference between the "non-cleft side" and "cleft side" in group 0 ($404.27{\pm}103.72/117.73{\pm}92.25$; p=0.00), group 1 ($434.29{\pm}86.70/388.31{\pm}109.51$; p=0.01), and group 4 ($430.98{\pm}98.11/366.71{\pm}154.59$; p=0.02). No significant differences were found in group 2 ($423.57{\pm}98.12/383.47{\pm}135.88$; p=0.06) or group 3 ($433.02{\pm}116.07/384.16{\pm}146.55$; p=0.19). Conclusion: Based on the design of this study, alveolar bone grafting was similar to normal bone within 2-7 months postoperatively.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the soft-tissue change after the maxillary protraction therapy using threedimensional (3D) facial images. Materials and Methods: This study used pretreatment (T1) and posttreatment (T2) 3D facial images from thirteen Class III malocclusion patients (6 boys and 7 girls; mean age, $8.9{\pm}2.2years$) who received maxillary protraction therapy. The facial images were taken using the optical scanner (Rexcan III 3D scanner), and T1 and T2 images were superimposed using forehead area as a reference. The soft-tissue changes after the treatment (T2-T1) were three-dimensionally calculated using 15 soft-tissue landmarks and 3 reference planes. Results: Anterior movements of the soft-tissue were observed on the pronasale, subnasale, nasal ala, soft-tissue zygoma, and upper lip area. Posterior movements were observed on the lower lip, soft-tissue B-point, and soft-tissue gnathion area. Vertically, most soft-tissue landmarks moved downward at T2. In transverse direction, bilateral landmarks, i.e. exocanthion, zygomatic point, nasal ala, and cheilion moved more laterally at T2. Conclusion: Facial soft-tissue of Class III malocclusion patients was changed three-dimensionally after maxillary protraction therapy. Especially, the facial profile was improved by forward movement of midface and downward and backward movement of lower face.

Background: To evaluate changes in the effectiveness of phentolamine mesylate in combination with different local anesthetics (LAs) and vasoconstrictors. A prospective randomized double-blind study was conducted with 90 patients divided into three groups, with each group being administered one of three different LAs: lidocaine 2% 1/80,000, articaine 4% 1/200,000, and bupivacaine 0.5% 1/200,000. Methods: We compared treatments administered to the mandible involving a LA blockade of the inferior alveolar nerve. Results were assessed by evaluating reduction in total duration of anesthesia, self-reported patient comfort using the visual analog pain scale, incidence rates of the most common adverse effects, overall patient satisfaction, and patient feedback. Results: The differences among the three groups were highly significant (P < 0.001); time under anesthesia was especially reduced for both the lip and tongue with bupivacaine. The following adverse effects were reported: pain at the site of the anesthetic injection (11.1%), headaches (6.7%), tachycardia (1.1%), and heavy bleeding after treatment (3.3%). The patients' feedback and satisfaction ratings were 100% and 98.9%, respectively. Conclusions: Efficient reversal of LAs is useful in dentistry as it allows patients to return to normal life more readily and avoid common self-injuries sometimes caused by anesthesia. Phentolamine mesylate reduced the duration of anesthesia in the three studied groups, with the highest reduction reported in the bupivacaine group (from 460 min to 230 min for the lip and 270 min for the tongue [P < 0.001]).

현대의 교정치료에 있어 치열궁의 문제뿐 아니라 안모에 관한 비중이 높아지고 있고, 특히 안모형태를 결정하는 연조직의 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 과거의 교정학 발달을 살펴볼 때 두부방사선 계측사진을 통한 경조직성장에 관한 연구는 많이 이루어 졌으나 연조직 성장변화에 관한 연구는 아직 미비하다고 볼 수 있다. 특히 국내에서의 이러한 연구는 연구대상자 수와 분석방법, 계측방법에 있어서 상당한 다양성을 보이고, 성장변화에 대한 연구는 태부족한 현실이다. 이에 본 연구는 한국인 남.녀 6세에서 17세 사이의 악안면 성장과 발육에 관한 준종단적 연구의 일부로 시행되었으며 3년간에 걸쳐 전신질환이 없고 발육상태가 양호하며 정상교합을 갖는 6-17세의 남자 409명과 여자 436명의 아동을 대상으로 하였다. 이들 아동의 성장에 따른 안면부 연조직의 변화양상을 연구하기 위해 두개안면계측사진을 촬영하여 안모의 형태, 입술의 위치 및 형태, 코의 형태 그리고 입술의 두께 등을 계측한 후 연령별, 성별 평균과 표준편차를 구하고 도표로 표시하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 결 론 1. 일반적으로 안모의 형태(facial form)는 여자에서보다 남자에서 더 장기간 성장이 지속되었으며 안면의 상부에 비하여 안면 하부구조의 길이가 더욱 큰 증가율을 보였다. 2. 상순과 하순의 두께는 연령의 증가에 따라 큰 변화가 없었으나, 서양아동에 비하여 돌출된 입술의 양상을 보였다. 3. 코의 수평방향으로의 길이는 연령의 증가와 함께 증가하였다. 4. 하안면부의 수평적인 두께는 연령에 따라 증가하였으며 상순의 비저부위의 두께[A-Sn(FH)]의 성장이 다른부위에 비하여 크게 증가하였다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to perform three-dimensional (3D) assessment of facial soft tissue in patients with skeletal Class III and mandibular asymmetry after orthognathic surgery. Methods: Samples consisted of 3D facial images obtained from five patients with A point-nasion-B point angle less than 2 degrees, and more than 5 mm of menton deviation. All patients had been treated at Gangneung-Wonju National University Dental Hospital from 2009 to 2012. They had undergone orthognathic surgery of Lefort I, and sagittal split osteotomy for correction of skeletal deformity, and orthodontic treatment. Facial scanning was performed before treatment (T1) and post-surgical orthodontic treatment (T2). Linear and angle variables of soft tissue landmarks, antero-posterior facial depth, and facial volume were measured. Results: No significant differences in width of the alar base, mouth width, and nasal canting were observed between T1 and T2. However, lip deviation, menton deviation, alar canting, lip canting, and menton deviation angle were significantly reduced at T2. Antero-posterior facial depth on the axial plane parallel to the left cheilion was significantly reduced on the deviated side and significantly increased on the non-deviated side at T2. Volume of the lower lateral and lower medial parts of the face was reduced on the deviated side, and volume of upper lateral and lower lateral parts on the non-deviated side was significantly increased at T2. Conclusion: After orthognathic surgery, facial asymmetry of soft tissue was improved following skeletal changes, especially the mandibular region. Although the length of the alar base and mouth width did not change, lip and soft tissue menton were displaced to the medial side after treatment. Facial depth also became symmetric after treatment. Facial volume showed a decrease on the lower part of the deviated side and that on lateral parts of the non-deviated side showed an increase after treatment.

악교정수술에 관한 치료계획은 치료결과에 관한 정확한 예측을 바탕으로 수립되는 것이 바람직하며 이는 심미적인 결과를 얻기 위한 가장 중요한 요소 중에 하나이다. 성인에서 골격성 하악전돌증의 치료는 하악골후퇴술을 이용한 악교정수술법이 주로 이용되는데, 술후 턱끝의 돌출도가 과도하게 감소되어 하악전진이부성형술을 추가로 시행해야 하는 경우 하악골과 턱 부위의 연조직 변화방향이 상이하게 나타나므로 술후 연조직 변화를 정확히 예측하는데 한계가 있다. 본 연구에서는 골격성 하악전돌증을 주소로 악교정수술을 시행한 성인을 대상으로, 상행지시상분할골절단술(BSSRO)만을 시행한 경우(A군) 11명 과 하악전진이부성형술(advancement genioplasty)도 같이 시행한 경우(B군) 9명의 경조직과 연조직 변화의 상관관계를 알아보기 위하여, 수술 8개월 이후에 채득된 측모두부계측방사선사진을 비교하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. E-line에 대하여 상순은 더 돌출되고 하순은 더 후퇴되어 입술의 형태가 개선되었으며, 하악전진이부성형술을 병행한 경우 하순의 돌출도는 더 개선되었다. 2. 두 군 모두에서 상순은 후방이동하고 비순각은 증가하였다. 3. 술후 B점에 대한 연조직 POGs점의 변화율은 A군에서 $84\%$, B군에서 $66\%$로 나타났으며 두 군간에 통계적 유의성이 있었다. 4. 경조직과 계측점의 수직변화량은 A군에서 감소하였다.
