본 연구는 유치 융합치의 특징과 영구치열에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 4 - 6세 어린이 중 융합치가 관찰되는 84명의 어린이를 조사하였으며, 융합치의 분포는 상악보다 하악에서, 2개의 융합치보다 1개가 발생한 경우가 높은 비율로 관찰되었으며 우식이환율은 하악보다 상악에서 높았다. 계승 영구치의 선천적 결손은 상악 유중절치와 유측절치 융합, 하악 유측절치와 유견치 융합, 하악 유중절치와 유측절치 융합 순이었으며, 과잉치 발생은 상악 유중절치와 유측절치 융합, 하악 유중절치와 유측절치 융합, 하악 유측절치와 유견치 융합 순으로 나타났다. 유치의 융합에 의한 계승 영구치의 맹출 지연은 하악에서는 나타나지 않았으나 상악의 경우 지연 발육되는 과잉치의 발생 가능성 및 이로 인한 영구 중절치의 맹출 지연 양상이 높은 빈도로 관찰되었다. 따라서 융합치로 인한 맹출 지연의 문제를 최소화하기 위해 주기적인 방사선 검사 및 조기 치료가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Objective: Alveolar bone loss is a common adverse effect of intrusion treatment. Mandibular incisors are prone to dehiscence and fenestrations as they suffer from thinner alveolar bone thickness. Methods: Thirty skeletal class II patients treated with mandibular intrusion arch therapy were included in this study. Lateral cephalograms and cone-beam computed tomography images were taken before treatment (T1) and immediately after intrusion arch removal (T2) to evaluate the tooth displacement and the alveolar bone changes. Pearson's and Spearman's correlation was used to identify risk factors of alveolar bone loss during the intrusion treatment. Results: Deep overbite was successfully corrected (P < 0.05), accompanied by mandibular incisor proclination (P < 0.05). There were no statistically significant change in the true incisor intrusion (P > 0.05). The labial and lingual vertical alveolar bone levels showed a significant decrease (P < 0.05). The alveolar bone is thinning in the labial crestal area and lingual apical area (P < 0.05); accompanied by thickening in the labial apical area (P < 0.05). Proclined incisors, non-extraction treatment, and increased A point-nasion-B point (ANB) degree were positively correlated with alveolar bone loss. Conclusions: While the mandibular intrusion arch effectively corrected the deep overbite, it did cause some unwanted incisor labial tipping/flaring. During the intrusion treatment, the alveolar bone underwent corresponding changes, which was thinning in the labial crestal area and thickening in the labial apical area vice versa. And increased axis change of incisors, non-extraction treatment, and increased ANB were identified as risk factors for alveolar bone loss in patients with mandibular intrusion therapy.

The root canal morphology undergoes aging-related changes, and relevant quantitative analyses have not yet been reported. We compared the cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and micro-computed tomography (microCT) scans of extracted mandibular incisors to check the accuracy of morphological measurements. Thereafter, the root canal morphology and aging-related changes in the mandibular incisors of Japanese individuals were assessed using CBCT. Six extracted teeth were fixed in a phantom head and imaged using CBCT and micro-CT. The correlation between the findings of the two imaging modalities was examined. Further, CBCT reconstructed images of the mandibular incisors of 81 individuals were observed. Age-related changes of the root canals were compared between participants aged <30 years and those aged ≥30 years. The CBCT and micro-CT findings regarding the root canals of the extracted teeth coincided in 94.4% of the cases. Mandibular incisors exhibiting two root canals in either cross-section accounted for 9.9% of central incisors and 12.4% of lateral incisors. Mandibular central incisors with two root canals were observed in two (6.3%) individuals aged <30 years and six (12.2%) aged ≥30 years. Mandibular lateral incisors with two root canals were observed in one (3.1%) individual aged <30 years and nine (18.4%) aged ≥30 years. CBCT allows accurate evaluation of complex root canal morphologies and is useful for endodontic preoperative assessment. Mandibular incisors have more frequent occurrence of two root canals with aging.

과잉치는 정상치판(dental lamina)의 과도한 증식의 결과로 발생되어 가족적 성향을 보이며, 쇄골두개이형성(Cleidocranial dysplasia), Gardner 증후군 등의 여러 질환과 관련되어 나타나기도 한다. 그 빈도는 유치열에서 $0.3{\sim}0.8%$, 영구치열에서 $1.0{\sim}3.5%$이고, 남성에서 호발되며(2 : 1), 상악에서 더 많이 발생한다(9 : 1). 상악에서는 mesiodens라고 불리는 중절치 사이의 위치가 가장 흔한 부위이고, 그 다음은 fourth molar와 측절치 부위이다. 하악에서는 소구치 부위가 가장 흔한 부위이고 전치부위에서는 약 2%로 매우 드물게 발생한다. 과잉치의 만기 잔존은 치간 이개, 인접한 치아의 맹출 장애, 치근 흡수 등을 야기하고 과잉치와 관련되어 함치성 낭종이 발생될 수 있으므로 조기진단과 적절한 치료가 중요하다. 본 두 증례는 비교적 드물게 나타나는 하악에 발생한 과잉치로, 하악 전치부와 소구치부에 발생한 과잉치를 발거하고 교정치료를 시행하여 양호한 결과를 얻었기에 보고하는 바이다.

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine cephalometric factors that help predict favorable soft-tissue profile outcomes following treatment with the Class II Twin-block appliance. Methods: Pre- and post-treatment lateral cephalograms of 45 patients treated with the Class II Twin-block appliance were retrospectively analyzed. Profile silhouettes were drawn from the cephalograms and evaluated by three orthodontists in order to determine the extent of improvement. Samples were divided into a favorable group (upper 30% of visual analogue scale [VAS] scores, n = 14) and an unfavorable group (lower 30% of VAS scores, n = 14). Skeletal and soft-tissue measurements were performed on the cephalograms and an intergroup comparison was conducted. Results: An independent t-test revealed that the following pre-treatment values were lower in the favorable group compared to the unfavorable group: lower incisor to mandibular plane angle, lower incisor to pogonion distance, point A-nasion-point B angle, sella-nasion line (SN) to maxillary plane angle, SN to mandibular plane angle, gonial angle, and symphysis inclination. The favorable group had a larger incisor inclination to occlusal plane. Moreover, the favorable group showed larger post-treatment changes in gonial angle, B point projection, and pogonion projection than did the unfavorable group. Conclusions: Class II malocclusion patients with a low divergent skeletal pattern and reduced lower incisor protrusions are likely to show more improvement in soft-tissue profile outcomes following Class II Twin-block treatment.

The authors have taken the x-ray films of carpal bone and orthopantomographs in Korean children to research the degree of ossification of carpal bone, that of calcification of tooth in jaw bone, the eruption rate of tooth, and the completion rate of apical foramen, and have compared the bone age and tooth age. We have gained a series of intersting conclusions to dare to report. 1. The ossification of carpal bone and the growth of tooth had processed proportionally to each other. 2. Both the bone age and tooth age were earlier in the female than in the male. 3. The completion of tooth crown formation and that of tooth root formation had processed proportionally to each other, and the general tendency of process was the earliest in the mandibular first molar and the latest in the second molar. 4. The eruption of tooth was the earliest in the mandibular first molar. The other teeth had erupted in the following orders: the central incisor, the lateral incisor, the first premolar, the second premolar, the canine and the second molar.

The aim of this study was to analyze the reliability of an ultrasonic device(SDM) measuring soft tissue thickness in relation to tooth position, and to find factors which can influence the reliability. The results showed that 1. measurement error was the largest in the maxillary second molar position and the smallest in the mandibular central incisor position. 2. in a box whisker plot, the difference between two measurements was most widely distributed in molar positions. 3. in Pearson correlation analysis, the relationship between two measurements was the highest in the maxillary lateral incisor position and, the lowest in the maxillary second molar, mandibular first and second premolar position. 4. a stepwise multiple regression analysis could explain the difference of two measurements with various independent variables in 29.7% (P<0.0001). Gingival thickness was the only variable influencing the measurement difference in a statistically significant level(P<0.0001). It can be concluded that its high reliability, ease to use and patient comfort justified the application of the SDM in measurement of soft tissue thickness.
