Objective: The primary aim of the study was to generate new prediction equations for the estimation of maxillary and mandibular canine and premolar widths based on mandibular incisors and first permanent molar widths. Methods: A total of 2,340 calculations (768 based on the sum of mandibular incisor and first permanent molar widths, and 1,572 based on the maxillary and mandibular canine and premolar widths) were performed, and a digital stereomicroscope was used to derive the the digital models and measurements. Mesiodistal widths of maxillary and mandibular teeth were measured via scanned digital models. Results: There was a strong positive correlation between the estimation of maxillary (r = 0.85994, $r^2=0.7395$) and mandibular (r = 0.8708, $r^2=0.7582$) canine and premolar widths. The intraclass correlation coefficients were statistically significant, and the coefficients were in the strong correlation range, with an average of 0.9. Linear regression analysis was used to establish prediction equations. Prediction equations were developed to estimate maxillary arches based on $Y=15.746+0.602{\times}sum$ of mandibular incisors and mandibular first permanent molar widths (sum of mandibular incisors [SMI] + molars), $Y=18.224+0.540{\times}(SMI+molars)$, and $Y=16.186+0.586{\times}(SMI+molars)$ for both genders, and to estimate mandibular arches the parameters used were $Y=16.391+0.564{\times}(SMI+molars)$, $Y=14.444+0.609{\times}(SMI+molars)$, and $Y=19.915+0.481{\times}(SMI+molars)$. Conclusions: These formulas will be helpful for orthodontic diagnosis and clinical treatment planning during the mixed dentition stage.

하악 유구치와 제1대구치는 보통 근심과 원심에 하나씩 2개의 치근을 가지나 원심설측에 독립적으로 존재하는 부가치근을 갖는 경우가 발견된다. 발생 빈도는 하악 제1대구치의 경우 백인에서는 3% 정도로 드물게 나타나지만 중국이나 일본, 에스키모, 북미 인디언 등 황인종에서는 20% 내외로 비교적 높다. 유구치의 경우는 제1대구치보다는 적게 발생되고 제1유구치보다는 제2유구치에서 더 많이 발생한다. 하악 유구치에 부가치근이 관찰되면 후방에 있는 유구치와 제1대구치에서도 부가치근이 발생할 가능성이 높으며 부가 치근을 가지는 하악 제1유구치의 치관의 형태는 원심설측에 존재하는 부가치근의 영향으로 삼각형 모양을 나타낼 수 있다. 본 증례는 연세대학교 치과대학병원 소아치과에 내원한 5명의 환아에게서 발생된 하악 유구치와 제1대구치의 부가 치근에 관한 보고로서 부가치근을 가진 유구치는 치근의 수와 치관의 형태 등에 문제가 있으므로 치수치료나 기성금관 수복, 발치 시에 정확한 진단과 치료가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

This study was undertaken to analyze the displacement and stress distribution in the mandible according to the pulling directions during mandibular first molar cervical traction after mandibular second molar extraction. The 3-dimensional finite element method(FEM) was used for a mathematical model composed of 594 elements and 1019 nodes. An orthodontic force, 450 gm, was applied to the each mandibular first molar in parallel, and below the occlusal plane by $7^{\circ}\;and\;25^{\circ}$ and meet the midsagittal plane by $40^{\circ}$ toward posterior direction. The results were as follows: 1. Mandibular teeth were displaced in more downward, posterior and lateral direction. Especially high stress was noted in case of parallel pull than in case of below the occlusal plane by $7^{\circ}\;and\;25^{\circ}$. 2. Mandibular first molar was moved bodily. 3. Generally, alveolar bone, mandibular body, ascending ramus and mandibular angle portion were displaced in downward, posterior and lateral direction. But coronoid process was displaced in downward, forward and lateral direction, and anterior and inner middle portion of condyle head and neck were displaced in downward, forward and medial direction, and posterior and outer middle portion of condyle head and neck were displaced in upward, forward and medial direction. 4. Maximum stress was observed at the condyle head and neck portion. With steeper direction of force, condyle head and neck showed more stress than parallel relation to the occlusal plane.

연구 목적: 치과 임플란트가 소개된 이후로 단일 치아 상실에 따른 임플란트 수복에 관한 성공적인 연구 결과들이 보고되고 임상적으로도 널리 사용되고 있다. 구강내의 다양한 부위에 따른 연구들이 있어 왔으나, 교합력이 강한 구치부 특히 하악 구치부에서 단일 임플란트에 관한 연구가 필요할 것이다. 본 연구는 하악의 제1대구치와 제2대 구치 부위에 식립된 단일 임플란트의 생존율에 관해 연구, 분석하였다. 연구 대상 및 방법: 2002년부터 2009년까지 대구광역시 소재의 7개 치과의원에서, 하악 제1, 2대구치에 단일 임플란트 치료를 받은 환자 284명에게 식립된 308개의 임플란트를 대상으로 하였다. 하악 제1대구치에 168개의 임플란트가 식립되었고, 하악 제2대구치에 140개의 임플란트가 식립되었다. 이들 임플란트는 식립위치, 환자의 성별, 연령, 임플란트의 직경 및 길이에 따라 분석하였다. 결과:하악 제1대구치에서는 4개의 임플란트가, 하악 제2대구치에서는 10개의 임플란트가 실패하였다. 하악 제1대구치에서는 97.6%, 하악 제2대구치에서는 92.9%의 성공률을 나타내었다. 환자의 연령, 성별, 식립방법, 임플란트의 직경 등에 따른 차이는 관찰할 수 없었다. 결론: 하악 제1대구치 단일 임플란트의 생존율은 하악 제2대구치 단일 임플란트의 생존율보다 높게 나타났다. 이는 하악 제2대구치 부위의 골질이 좋지 않고, 하악의 해부학적인 구조로 인해 하악 제2대구치 부위에 과도한 교합력이 가해질 우려가 있기 때문이라 생각된다.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of a separate distolingual root and to measure the thickness of the buccal cortical bone in mandibular first molars in Koreans using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. Materials and Methods: High-quality CBCT data from 432 patients were analyzed in this study. The prevalence of a separate distolingual root of the mandibular first molar was investigated. The distance from the distobuccal and distolingual root apices to the outer surface of the buccal cortical bone was measured. We also evaluated the thickness of the buccal cortical bone. Results: The prevalence of a separate distolingual root (2 separate distal roots with 1 canal in each root; 2R2C) was 23.26%. In mandibular first molars with 2R2C, the distance from the distobuccal root apex to the outer surface of the buccal cortical bone was 5.51 mm. Furthermore, the distance from the distolingual root apex to the outer surface of the buccal cortical bone was 12.09 mm. In mandibular first molars with 2R2C morphology, the thickness of the buccal cortical bone at the distobuccal root apex of the mandibular first molar was 3.30 mm. The buccal cortical bone at the distobuccal root apex was significantly thicker in the right side (3.38 mm) than the left side (3.09 mm) (p < 0.05). Conclusions: A separate distolingual root is not rare in mandibular first molars in the Korean population. Anatomic and morphologic knowledge of the mandibular first molar can be useful in treatment planning, including surgical endodontic treatment.

Purpose: This study evaluated the prevalence of distolingual roots in mandibular molars among Koreans, the root canal system associated with distolingual roots, and the concurrent appearance of a distolingual root in the mandibular first molar and a C-shaped canal in the mandibular second molar. Materials and Methods: Cone-beam computed tomographic images of 264 patients were screened and examined. Axial sections of 1056 mandibular molars were evaluated to determine the number of roots. The interorifice distances from the distolingual canal to the distobuccal canal were also estimated. Using an image analysis program, the root canal curvature was calculated. Pearson's chi-square test, the paired t-test, one-way analysis of variance, and post-hoc analysis were performed. Results: Distolingual roots were observed in 26.1% of the subjects. In cases where a distolingual root was observed in the mandibular molar, a significant difference was observed in the root canal curvature between the buccolingual and mesiodistal orientations. The maximum root canal curvature was most commonly observed in the mesiodistal orientation in the coronal portion, but in the apical portion, maximum root canal curvature was most often observed in the buccolingual orientation. Conclusion: The canal curvature of distolingual roots was found to be very complex, with a different direction in each portion. No correlation was found between the presence of a distolingual root in the mandibular first molar and the presence of a C-shaped canal in the mandibular second molar.

A retrospective in vivo study of endodontically treated mandiblar molars was conducted. The radilographs and clinical records of mandibular molars that had been treated endodontically in the Dental hospital of Yonsei University from 1986 to July 1997 were reviewed and categorized. A total of 1751 cases were studied and following results were obtained. 1. The number of root canals in mandibular first permanent molar in a Korean population revealed three in 53.2 %, four in 23.0 %, two in 18.4 %, C-shaped canal in 5.0 %, and one in 0.4 %. 2. In mandibular second molar, three canals was observed in 53.2 %, four in 22.2 %, two in 14.9%, C-shaped canal in 9.1 %, and one in 0.6%. 3. In the results of the percentage of 4 canals of mandibular first molars at various age, before age 20, 37.7 % was obtained whereas 19.3 % after 30. 4. 7.94 % of mandibular first molars examined were found to have three roots. 5. The mandibular second molar had C-shaped canals in 9.1 %.

Objectives: Classification of the degree of postoperative nerve damage according to contact with the mandibular canal and buccal cortical bone has been studied, but there is a lack of research on the difference in postoperative courses according to contact with buccal cortical bone. In this study, we divided patients into groups according to contact between the mandibular canal and the buccal cortical bone, and we compared the position of the mandibular canal in the second and first molar areas. Materials and Methods: Class III patients who visited the Dankook University Dental Hospital were included in this study. The following measurements were made at the second and first molar positions: (1) length between the outer margin of the mandibular canal and the buccal cortical margin (a); (2) mandibular thickness at the same level (b); (3) Buccolingual $ratio=(a)/(b){\times}100$; and (4) length between the inferior margin of the mandibular canal and the inferior cortical margin. Results: The distances from the canal to the buccal bone and from the canal to the inferior bone and mandibular thickness were significantly larger in Group II than in Group I. The buccolingual ratio of the canal was larger in Group II in the second molar region. Conclusion: If mandibular canal is in contact with the buccal cortical bone, the canal will run closer to the buccal bone and the inferior border of the mandible in the second and first molar regions.
