Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the facial skeletal patterns and the shape of the mandibular symphysis in adults with malocclusion by using a structural equation model (SEM). Methods: Ninety adults who had malocclusion and had records of facial skeletal measurements performed using cone-beam computed tomography were selected for this study. The skeletal measurements were classified into three groups (vertical, anteroposterior, and transverse). Cross-sectional images of the mandibular symphysis were analyzed using generalized Procrustes and principal component (PC) analyses. A SEM was constructed after the factors were extracted via factor analysis. Results: Two factors were extracted from the transverse, vertical, and anteroposterior skeletal measurements. Latent variables were extracted for each factor. PC1, PC2, and PC3 were selected to analyze the variations of the mandibular symphyseal shape. The SEM was constructed using the skeletal variables, PCs, and latent variables. The SEM showed that the vertical latent variable exerted the most influence on the mandibular symphyseal shape. Conclusions: The relationship between the skeletal pattern and the mandibular symphysis was analyzed using a SEM, which showed that the vertical facial skeletal pattern had the highest effect on the shape of the mandibular symphysis.

The purpose of this longitudinal study was to examine the growth changes of mandibular symphysis and lower incisors with age. The material was 294 lateral cephalometric radiographs taken longitudinally from 6 to 13 year old children, who were not teated orthodontically. The following conclusions seem to be warranted. 1. The sex difference of the measurements of mandibular symphysis and lower incisors were not statistic ally significant. 2. There were growth increments (2.69mm in boys and 2.08mm in girls) in the total thickness of mandibular symphysis. 3. There were a great change and individual variations on the curvature of anterior border of mandibular symphysis. 4. The chin angle had a tendency to decrease progressively in both sexes. 5. There were growth increments (8.23mm in boys and 7.40mm in girls) in the anterior dental height. 6. The lower anterior teeth tended to incline labially with age.

The most common orthodontic methods of treating mandibular transverse deficiencies is extractions, interdental stripping, and other dento-alveolar compensation but it can not addressesd about skeletal problem This study assessed the treatment outcomes after surgically assisted rapid tooth orthodontics using the symphysis osteotomy and dentoalveolar distraction osteogenesis technique. The applications of distraction osteogenesis in mandibular widening, by symphysis osteotomy, has emerged as a definitive, predictable and better stability. The most important factors in mandibular widening is performed with simple surgical technique and devices. As a results, these techniques are very useful and effective in cases of difficult tooth movement in adult orthodontics transverse problems There were few intraoperative or postoperative complications and were not clinically significant.

Objectives: This study evaluated the availability of mandibular symphysis corticocancellous block grafts in patients treated for reconstruction of intraoral jaw defects. Materials & Methods: 8 patients with mandibular and maxillary bony defects were treated with corticocancellous block of symphysis. The types of defects included 4 pathologic jaw defects and 4 vertical and/or horizontal alveolar deficiencies. The age ranged from 13 to 45 years. Additional treatments such as plate fixation, alloplastic bony substitutes, and/or barrier membrane application were perfomred. They were evaluated for complications and healing of defects. Follow-up period ranged from 6 to 15 months. Results: 2 patients experienced complications such as wound dehiscence and mild resorption of exposed bone. None of the patients needed secondary operation. Paresthesia of lip, chin, and teeth were recovered completely by 6 months postoperatively. Reconstructed wound showed favorable healing and bony consolidation. Conclusion: Corticocancellous block of mandibular symphysis can be used for the reconstruction of a variety of intraoral local jaw defects selectively. Advantages were easy fixation of graft, possibility of restoration of original alveolar contour, and decreased donor site morbidity.

Transverse mandibular deficiency has a many problem in growing patients. Therefore, Mandible symphysis widening is recommended. A new surgical technique has been developed to widen the mandible. The purpose of this study is to report the effect of mandibluar symphyseal distraction osteogenesis by use of bone-borne type distractor. The surgical procedure was accomplished under general anaesthesia with step-line osteotomy. Bone-borne type distractor was used to generally widen the mandible. The expansion achieved in the mandible was 8.31mm at the device, 6.32mm at the canines, 4.06mm at the first molars. The symphyseal distraction gaps were bridged by new bony regeneration. Mandibular symphseal distraction osteogenesis increased mandibular arch width, stabilized occlusion, and corrected dental crowding.

Background: This study was conducted to determine the effect of the distributional relationship between dental roots and the mandibular bone on single mandibular bone fractures, which are common craniofacial fractures. Methods: This was a retrospective, single-center study in Seoul, Korea. Patients with single mandibular fractures in the symphysis, parasymphysis, body, and angle area, with tooth structure involvement were included. The control group included patients with simple, bone-level lacerations without fractures. In total, 94 patients (72 males and 22 females) were included in the treatment group, and 125 (71 males and 54 females) were included in the control group. The height of the mandibular bone and the dental root were measured with panoramic radiography. The central incisor represented the symphysis area, the canine represented the parasymphysis area, the first molar represented the body area, and the second molar represented the angle area. Results: In the treatment group, symphysis fractures occurred in 16 patients (17%), parasymphysis fractures in 36 patients (38%), body fractures in 17 patients (18%), and angle fractures in 25 patients (27%). The ratios of the dental roots to the total height of the mandibular bone in the treatment group were 30.35%, 39.75%, 39.53%, and 36.27% for symphysis, parasymphysis, body, and angle areas, respectively, whereas in the control group, they were 27.73%, 39.70%, 36.76%, and 35.48%. The ratios of the treatment group were significantly higher than those of the control group. Conclusion: The results show that the higher ratio of the dental root to the height of the mandibular bone increases the fracture risk.

성장기 아동에서의 골격성 III급 부정교합을 치료하기 위하여 사용되는 이모장치는 하악골의 후하방 회전 또는 하악골 길이 성장의 억제에 의하여 하악 전돌감을 감소시키는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 이에 관한 연구는 하악골 성장의 주요 부분을 담당하는 하악 과두부위와 관련된 것이 대부분이었다. 본 연구는 장기간 이모장치를 착용하였을 때 구외력이 직접 적용되는 부위인 하악 이부의 형태 변화를 평가하기 위해 시행하였다. 전북대학교병원 치과교정과에서 교정치료를 받은 혼합치열기 아동 62명 (이모장치군 32명, 대조군 30명)을 대상으로 측모 두부규격 방사선사진을 채득하여(치료 또는 관찰기간 평균 2.1년) 계측치 (각도 4개 거리 5개, 비율 2개)를 평가하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 치료 후 symphysis height는 이모장치를 사용하지 않은 군과 이모장치 착용군에서 모두 치료 전보다 증가하였다. symphysis depth는 이모장치를 사용하지 않은 군에서 치료 후 증가하였으나 이모장치 착용군에서는 치료 전과 차이가 없었다. 특히, posterior symphysis depth가 이모장치 착용군과 대조군에서 모두 감소한 반면, anterior symphysis depth는 대조군에서는 증가하였고 이모장치 착용군에서는 치료 후 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 2. chin depth와 chin curvature는 이모장치를 사용하지 않은 군에서는 증가하였으나 이모장치 착용군에서는 치료 후에도 변화를 보이지 않았거나 감소하였다. 대조군에서 chin angle, menton angle, symphysis angle은 감소하는 경향을 보였으나 이모장치 치료군에서는 오히려 증가하였다. 이것은 하악골의 성장에 따라 정상적으로 나타나는 pogonion 부위의 골침착이 이모장치 착용군에서 chincup의 직접 접촉에 의해서 억제된 결과로 생각된다. 3. 성장기 아동에서 이모장치를 착용하였을 때 하악 이부의 전방 성장 억제에 의하여 치료 전과 유사한 하악 이부 형태가 유지되었으며 이것은 주로 하악 이부의 전방부의 골침착 억제에 의한 결과인 것으로 생각된다.
