Recently, sagittal split ramus oseotomy and intraoral vertical ramus osteotomy have been commonly performed for the correction of mandibular prognathism, occurred to abundant oriental people. Many authors have studied the soft tissue change after orthognathic surgery, especially between mandibular hard tissues and soft tissue of lower lip, but the study of upper lip change is comparatively little. Therefore, we studied the 12 patients, operated only sagittal split ramus osteotomy without genioplasty or maxillary osteotomy in department of oral and maxillofacial surgery, Hanyang university hospital from 1996. 1. 1. to 1998. 7. 20. Preoperative and postoperative cephalometric view was measured to know the change of upper lip position and shape after mandibular setback. The result were obtained as follows. 1. The ratio of upper lip change amount to lower incisor horizontal movement was 15.1%. 2. The ratio of lower facial profile between Sn-Stm and Stm-Mes was changed from 1 : 2.352 to 1 : 2.069 after operation. 3. Post-operative upper lip was flattened 72.4% compared with pre-operative one. 4. The vermilion zone of the upper lip increased 56 % horizontally, 5.8% vertically after operation. 5. The vermilion zone ratio of the lower lip to the upper lip was changed from 1 : 1.253 to 1 : 1.348. 6. The distance between esthetic line and Ls was changed from -3.958mm to -1.15mm.

본 논문은 임베디드 환경에서의 실시간 립리딩 방법을 제안한다. 기존 PC 환경에 비하여 임베디드 환경은 사용할 수 있는 자원이 제한적이므로, 기존 PC 환경의 립리딩 시스템을 임베디드 환경에서 실시간으로 구동하기는 어렵다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 논문은 임베디드 환경에 적합한 입술영역 검출 방법과 입술 특징추출 방법, 그리고 발성 단어 인식 방법을 제안한다. 먼저 정확한 입술영역을 찾기 위해 얼굴 색상정보를 이용해 얼굴영역을 검출하고 검출된 얼굴 영역에서 양쪽 두 눈의 위치를 찾아 기하학적 관계를 이용해 정확한 입술영역을 검출한다. 검출된 입술영역에서 주위 환경 변화에 따른 조명 변화에 강인한 특징을 추출하기위해 히스토그램 매칭과 입술 폴딩, RASTA 필터를 적용하고 주성분 분석(PCA)을 이용한 특징계수를 추출해 인식에 사용하였다. 실험결과 CPU 806Mhz, RAM 128MB 사양의 임베디드 환경에서 발성 단어에 따라 1.15초에서 2.35초까지의 처리 속도를 보였으며, 180개의 단어 중 139개의 단어를 인식해 77%의 인식률을 얻을 수 있었다.

This study was undertaken to analyze the growth of mandible in surgically repaired unilateral cleft lip and palate. The subjects consisted of 63 unilateral cleft lip and palate individuals, 60 class III malocclusions and 60 normal occlusions ranging from 6 to 15 years old. Each group was divided into two age groups. (6-10 Y and 11-15 Y) The results obtained from UCLP compared with other groups were as follows: 1. The anteroposterior position of the chin was similar to that of the normal occlusions. 2. The shape of the mandible was similar to that of the class III malocclusions. 3. In mandibular size, ramus height was the smallest among three groups, but body length and overall mandibular length were similar to those of the normal occlusions. 4. The lower border of the mandible was the steepest among three groups and strong vertical or clockwise growth tendency was indicated. 5. The position of condyle in relation to the cranial base showed little difference in three groups. 6. In older age group , vertical growth tendency of the mandible decreased more or less.

It is difficult to perform orthodontic treatment for cleft lip and palate patient. Although there are many orthodontic appliances to expand narrowed maxillary arch, results are rarely successful and the possibility of relapse is increased due to severe scars. Self-ligating bracket, recently used in orthodontic treatment, suggests solution of crowding by expansion of dental arches. Light and continuous force could apply for orthodontic movement due to characteristic low friction of self ligating bracket, which gives expansion force until dentition reaches its new equilibrium position and it can be expressed as spontaneous lateral expansion with heavy labial tension. This kind of expansion force is thought to be a possibility of expanding the constricted maxillary arch of cleft lip and palate patient. Repositioning of the maxilla by Le Fort I osteotomy in case of severe maxillary deficiency, increases the possibility of relapse because of limitation in anterior movement and adaptation of soft tissue. In these cases, distraction osteogenesis(DO) can be applied for stable result. We report a case of cleft lip and palate patient with narrowed maxillary arch and maxillary deficiency using self ligating bracket and DO.

The purpose of this study is to investigate possible correlation between the dental anomalies and site of cleft in cleft lip and palate. In this study, 142 patients who had cleft lip and/or cleft palate were examined. The results are as follows. 1. The incidence of missing tooth was high in the permanent dentition as compared to the incidence in the deciduous dentition. 2. There was not much difference of incidence of supernumerary tooth between deciduous and permanent dentition in the group of patients who had cleft lip and jaw with or without cleft palate. 3. In the group of patients who had cleft lip and jaw with or without cleft palate, the frequency of incidence of cleft sides was higer in unilateral than bilateral cases. And, incidence of left sides was higher than right sides. 4. The type of cleft between central incisor and canine with missing lateral incisor was most frequent in permanent dentition and the type of cleft between central and lateral incisor was most frequent in deciduous dentition. 5. The type of cleft associated with tooth position in deciduous dentition was not almost the same in the succeeding permanent dentition.

The Modified Voiced Lip Trill (MVoLT) training is a variant of voiced lip-till training characterized by increased loudness, lowered laryngeal position, and lip contact facilitated with fingers. The purpose of the current study was to assess the effect of the MVoLT training program on vocal changes of musical singing theater students. A total of 32 musical theater students (17 males and 15 females, age ranging from 18 to 29) participated in the study. For about three months, each participant was tutored using a systematic program focussing on the MVoLT training, accompanied by certain facilitating strategies. Pre- & post-training multi-dimensional vocal characteristics were assesed and compared. Results showed that cepstral peak prominence during vowel phonation increased after training, while its standard deviation and Cepstral Spectral Index of Dysphonia decreased. When an aerodynamic assessment was performed, maximum phonation time, subglottal pressure, mean airflow rate increased, while electroglottographic measures did not change. In addition, decreased psychometric measures, higher maximum pitch, and increased vocal range were noted after training. In conclusion, the MVoLT was proven to have a potential as an effective and safe training method for musical theater singing.

Unilateral cleft lip is not a simple and independent problem in all aspects. nasal deformity results from the cleft lip, maxillary hypoplasia, and abnormal muscular pull on the nasal structures, including abnormal muscular tension on the alar base and abnormal position of the orbicularis oris muscle. Its gross and histopathologic characteristics include widening of the alar base, a midline deviation of the columella and septum to the noncleft side, dorsal displacement of the dome, lateral rotation of medial crura, buckling of the alar cartilage, and underdevelopment of the pyriform aperture. Since Dr. Millard first presented his method for repair of the unilateral cleft lip and nasal deformity in 1955, no other technique has gained as much popularity as the rotation-advancement principle. Principles established more than 50 years ago and techniques are evolving continuously. Unlike earlier procedures, this repair gives the surgeon the opportunity to manipulate the individual cleft elements through various modifications while maintaining Millard's original surgical and anatomical goals. Although this strategy is applied worldwide, successful execution is variable and highly operator dependent. Millard and many other surgeons have made technical variations to adjust the procedure to each specific patient, to address some of its faults, and to gain new advantages. We will review the Mulliken's modifications that Dr. Millard made to his original rotation-advancement principle and inform cases applied modifying the rotation-advancement principle.

Objective: To investigate the three-dimensional lip vermilion changes after extraction and non-extraction orthodontic treatment in female adult patients and explore the correlation between lip vermilion changes and incisor changes. Methods: Forty-seven young female adult patients were enrolled in this study (skeletal Class III patients were excluded), including 34 lip-protruding patients treated by extraction of four first premolars (18 patients requiring mini-implants for maximum anchorage control and 16 patients without mini-implants) and 13 patients requiring non-extraction treatment. Nine angles, seven distances, and the surface area of the lip vermilion were measured by using pre- and post-treatment three-dimensional facial scans. Linear and angular measurements of incisors were performed on lateral cephalograms. Results: There were no significant changes in the vermilion measurements in the non-extraction group. The vermilion angle, vermilion height, central bow angle, height/width ratio, and vermilion surface area decreased significantly after the orthodontic treatment in the extraction groups, but the upper/lower vermilion proportion remained unchanged. Significant correlations were found between the changes in incisor position and those in vermilion angles, vermilion height, and surface area. Conclusions: Extraction of the four first premolars probably produced an aesthetic improvement in lip vermilion morphology. However, the upper/lower vermilion proportion remained unchanged. The variations in the vermilion were closely related to incisor changes, especially the upper incisor inclination changes.

A study was made to investigate a relationship existing in the dentoskeletal framework and the soft tissue profile around the face, and compare the sexual differences between boys and girls having the normal occlusion in the mixed dentition. The lateral cephalograms were composed of 67 boys aged 10.3 years and 68 girls aged 10.4 years, respectively. By means of the lateral cephalograms, both the hard-and soft tissue structures were simultaneously analyzed, measured and evaluated by introducing the several reference items: S-N plane, palatal plane, mandibular plane, N-A line and A-P line for the dentoskeletal structures and N’-P’line for the soft tissue, and the 21 measuring points for the both structures. The significant findings were as follows: 1. In general the boys showed the larger nasal component dimension than did the girls, but the length and height of nose(N’-Prn and NA-Prn) showed the significant sexual difference among those when evaluated statistically. 2. The lip-thickness was found to be minimal in the region of nasion, greater in the region of pogonion, and much greater in the region of point A in the both sexes, but the only thickness over point A(A-A’) showed the significant sexual difference statistically. 3. The upper and lower lip position were found to be located anteriorly to the esthetic line in the both sexes, but upper lip position showed the significant sexual difference when evaluated statistically. 4. The regions of nose and upper lip had a tendency not to be following the underlying skeletal profile.
