Objective: The study aimed to evaluate the changes in mandibular width after sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) in patients with mandibular asymmetric prognathism using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods: Seventy patients who underwent SSRO for mandibular setback surgery were included in two groups, symmetric (n = 35) and asymmetric (n = 35), which were divided according to the differences in their right and left setback amounts. The mandibular width was evaluated three-dimensionally using CBCT images taken immediately before surgery (T1), 3 days after surgery (T2), and 6 months after surgery (T3). Repeated measures analysis of variance was applied to verify the differences in mandibular width statistically. Results: Both groups showed a significant increase in the mandibular width at T2, followed by a significant decrease at T3. No significant difference was observed between T1 and T3 in any of the measurements. No significant differences were found between the two groups (p > 0.05). Conclusions: After mandibular asymmetric setback surgery using SSRO, the mandibular width increased immediately but returned to its original width 6 months after surgery.

The primary objective of this study is to make the prediction percentile tabulation of the sun of mesiodistal width of the unerupted permanent canines and premolars derived from the sum of mesiodistal width of the erupted permanent mandibular incisors in Korean population. The subjects were 316 individuals with normal occlusion aged 11 to 23 years. The sum of mesiodistal width of mandibular incisors, and the sum of mesiodistal width of maxillary canine, first and second premolars, and the sum of mandibular canine, first and second premolars were measured from the dental cast models using the sliding caliper (Mitutoyo Co.). From the study, the results are as follows: 1. The sum of M-D width of mandibular incisors and the sum of M-D width of maxillary canines, first and second premolars, and the sum of M-D width of mandibular canine, first and second premolars were smaller than those of American Caucasians and Negros. 2. The correlation coefficient between the sum of M-D width of mandibular incisors and that of maxillary or mandibular canines, first and second premolars was found to be 0.598 and 0.586, respectively. 3. The regression constants were determined to evaluate the sum of M-D width of the unerupted permanent canines and premolars derived from the sum of M-D width of the erupted permanent incisors. 4. The prediction percentile tabulation were made in an attempt to predict the total M-D width of the unerupted permanent canines and premolars derived from the total M-D width of the erupted permanent mandibular incisors.

The treatment plan for orthognathic surgery must be based on accurate predictions, and this can be produced the most esthetic, functional and stable results. The purpose of this study was aimed to evaluate the amount and interrelationship of the gonial angle and the mandibular width change after the mandibular setback surgery in the mandibular prognathic patients. Twenty patients were selected who received orthognathic surgery after presurgical orthodontic treatment. The patients with skeletal and dental Class III malocclusion were operated upon with bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy and mandibular setback. The lateral and posteroanterior cephalometric radiographs were taken preoperatively, postoperative 1 day and 12 months later after the orthognathic surgery, and then the gonial angle and mandibular width were measured. The computerized statistical analysis was carried out with SPSS/PC program. The gonial angle at postoperative 1 day was decreased about $5.3^{\circ}$ than preoperative value and the gonial angle at postoperative 12 months was increased about $1.4^{\circ}$ than postoperative 1 day. So the gonial angle at postoperative 12 months was decreased about $3.9^{\circ}$ than preoperative value. The mean preoperative gonial angle was $125.35^{\circ}{\pm}7.36$, showing significantly high value than normal and mean gonial angle at postoperative 12 months was $121.45^{\circ}{\pm}6.81$, showing value near to normal. The mandibular width at postoperative 1 day was decreased about 1.1 mm than preoperative value and the mandibular width at postoperative 12 months was more decreased about 1.7 mm than postoperative 1 day. So the mandibular width at postoperative 12 months was decreased about 2.8 mm than preoperative value. These results indicate that sagittal split ramus osteotomy in mandibular prognathic patients with high gonial angle is effective to improvement of gonial angle. It is considered to be helpful for maintenance of postoperative stable gonial angle area that detailed postoperative care and follow-up.

Purpose: To provide diagnostic information by evaluation of the positional relationship between the mandibular third molar and the mandibular canal. Materials and Methods: Eighty-nine mandibular third molars were classified as mesioangular, horizontal, vertical, distoangular groups. The distances between the mandibular third molar and the mandibular canal were measured in cone-beam computed tomographs. The height and width ratios of distances from the mandibular third molar and the mandibular canal to the mandibular inferior border and to the lingual cortical plate were calculated. Results: The vertical and buccolingual distances between the mandibular third molar and the mandibular canal were 0.03 mm, 2.96 mm in the mesioangular, 0.37 mm, 3.38 mm in the horizontal, -1.50 mm, 1.38 mm in the vertical, -1.10 mm, 4.20 mm in the distoangular group. There were significant differences in vertical (P < 0.05), but not in buccolingual (P>0.05). The height and width ratios of distances on the mandibular third molar were 47.1 %, 36.1 % in the mesioangular, 47.4%, 34.4% in the horizontal, 37.0%, 46.7% in the vertical, 40.9%, 37.4% in the distoangular group. There were significant differences between the mesioangular and the vertical group, and the horizontal and the vertical group in height ratio (P < 0.05), and also between the mesioangular and the vertical group in width ratio (P < 0.05). The height and width ratios of distances on the mandibular canal showed no significant differences between groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion : The mesioangular group showed the nearest distance between the mandibular third molar and the mandibular canal vertically. The root apex of the mandibular third molar was positioned more buccally in the vertical group than in the mesioangular group.

하악전돌증(mandibular prognathism or mandibular prognathic patient) 환자의 경우 전후방과 수직적 악골(maxilla)의 부조화정도가 심하거나 안면측모(facial profile)에 대한 심미적 인식도가 클 때에는 교정치료만으로는 심미적으로 만족한 결과를 얻기가 어려우므로 악교정수술(orthognathc surgery)과 병행되어야만 한다. 이럴 경우 심미적인 개선은 환자의 치료결과에 대한 만족도에 중요한 요소가 되고 있지만 미에 대한 기준을 객관화하는데는 많은 문제점을 갖고 있어 그 평가도 환자자신의 주관적인 관점에 의하여 내려지게 된다. 우리나라의 경우 얼굴심미에 대한 기준이 서구인의 외형을 선호하는 경향이 있어 전통적인 둥그런 얼굴보다는 달걀형의 갸름한 얼굴모양을 선호한다. 이 연구는 하악전돌증으로 인한 악교정수술결과 술후 얼굴폭이 넓어져 수술전보다 얼굴의 모양이 둥그렇게 되었다고 호소하는 환자가 있어 시도하게 되었다. 악교정수술전후의 안모길이 및 폭경의 변화에 관한 연구를 위하여 하악전돌증을 주소로 악교정수술을 받은 총 14명 환자(남자 8명, 여자 6명)의 정모두부방사선사진 계측(skull PA analysis)과 설문조사를 통하여 수술후의 안모변화 및 환자의 만족도에 대한 분석을 시행하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 14명의 환자중 3명($21.4\%$)이 얼굴이 넓어졌다고 답하였다. 2. 악교정수술(orthognathic surgery)후 하악골폭경 (mandibular width)은 A군은 변화가 없었으며, B군은 0.7mm 감소하였고, 안면폭경 (zygomatic width)은 A군에서는 0.45mm, B군에서는 0.66mm의 증가를 보였다. 3. 악교정수술후 얼굴길이의 변화는 A군에서는 상안면 고경(upper facial height)이 0.52mm증가, 하안면고경(lower facial height)이 1.19mm감소, 하악골 고경(mandibular height)이 0.7mm감소하였으며, B군에서는 상안면 고경이 0.67mm 감소, 하안면고경이 3.66mm 감소, 하악골 고경이 5mn감소하였다. 4. 수술후 안면폭경에 대한 안면고경(facial height)의 비율은 A군에서 $1.5\%$, B군에서 ,$3.6\%$ 감소하였다. 5. 수술후 안면폭경에 대한 하악골 길이(mandibular height)의 비율은 A군에선 $1.3\%$, B군에서 $4.4\%$ 감소하였다. 6. 수술후 하악골폭경에 대한 하악골 길이(mandibular height)의 비율은 A군에서 $1.3\%$, B군에서 $4.3\%$ 감소하였다. 7. 수술로 인한 얼굴폭의 변화는 무시할만한 것으로 판단되나 수술후 얼굴의 길이가 짧아져 상대적으로 얼굴의 폭이 넓어보일 수 있으므로 수술시 이에 대한 충분한 고려 및 환자에 대한 설명이 있어야 한다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the width of attached gingiva of 414 subjects with healthy gingiva, or early stage of gingivitis. We compared the differences according to the tooth location, age (Yonger group : $14{\sim}30$, Older group : $31{\sim}67$) and gender. In addition, we compared the width of attached gingiva in the subjects with less than 2 sites of gingival recession($Re{\leq}2$) and the subjects with more than 3 sites of gingival recession($Re{\geq}3$) to study the relationship between the gingival recession and the width of attached gingiva. The results were as follows : 1. The width of keratinized gingiva was widest in maxillary incisors($5.3{\pm}1.4mm$) and narrowest in mandibular right 1st bicuspid and mandibular right and left 2nd molars($3.5{\pm}1.1mm$). 2. The width of attached gingiva was widest in maxillary right central incisor($3.8{\pm}1.5mm$) and narrowest in mandibular right 2nd molar($1.2{\pm}1.0mm$). 3. In the comparison between the age groups, the width of keratinized in older group was significantly (p<0.05) wider than that in younger group in maxillary right and left 1st bicuspids, mandibular right and left 1st and 2nd molars, maxillary right and left cuspids and mandibular right 1st bicuspid. There was no significant difference in the width of attached gingiva between the two groups except for maxillary right and left 1st molars and maxillary left 2nd molar. 4. In the comparison between male group and female group, in maxillary right and and left lateral incisors and cuspids, mandibular right and left cuspids and 1st bicuspids, the width of attached gingiva in female was significantly(p<0.05) wider than that in male group. 5. In the comparison between the Re 3 group and Re 2 group, there was no significant difference except for maxillary right and left 2nd molars and maxillary left 1st molar. 6. The frequency of gingival recession was m the order of mandibular right 1st bicuspid(16.6%), maxillary right 1st bicuspid(13.7%), maxillary and mandibular left 1st bicuspids (13.4%), mandibular left cuspid (10.5%), maxillary left and mandibular right cuspids(10.1%) and maxillary right cuspid(7.9%).

하악 전치의 밀집은 가장 흔히 볼 수 있는 부정교합의 특징중의 하나이며 교정치료후의 안정성과 재발 측면에서도 중요 관심의 대상이다. 이를 유발시킬 수 있는 원인으로 그동안 많은 요소가 연구되어 왔으며 치아의 크기도 그 중의 하나이다. 현재 교정치료의 진단과 치료에 사용되고 있는 치아 크기 측정에서는 순설측 폭경의 의미가 간과되어 왔는데 Peck과 Peck이 이상적인 하악 전치부 배열을 가진 경우 절치의 근원심 폭경은 평균보다 작고 순설측 폭경은 평균보다 크다는 통계학적 수치를 발표하고 MD/FL index가 하악 전치부 밀집과 높은 상관관계를 가진다고 주장하였다. 본 연구는 한국인에 있어서 하악 절치의 형태 및 크기와 하악 전치부 밀집간의 상관관계, 그들과 전악궁의 치아 밀집간의 연관성을 알아보기 위해 시행되었다. 11세에서 17세에 이르는 154명의 석고 모형을 채득하여 Irregularity index 1 미만인 35명의 정상군과 Irregularity index 1 이상인 119명의 밀집군으로 분류하고 석고모형상에서 연관성 있다고 추정되는 계측항목을 측정한 후 통계처리하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 하악 절치의 근원심 폭경은 밀집군에서 큰 값을 보였으나 중절치에서만 유의성을 보였고, 순설측 폭경과 MD/FL index는 유의차가 없게 나타났다. 2. Irregularity index는 밀집군의 하악 절치의 근원심 폭경, MD/FL index와 유의성있는 상관관계를 나타냈으나 순설측 폭경과는 상관관계를 보이지 않았다. 또한 상하악의 Arch length discrepancy, 치관 근원심 폭경 총화와는 순상관 관계를, 하악 견치간 폭경과 제 1 소구치간 폭경과는 역상관관계를 나타내었다. 3. 상하악의 arch length discrepancy는 하악 절치의 근원심 폭경, overbite과 유의성 있는 상관관계를 나타내었고 순설측 폭경과는 상관관계가 나타나지 않았다. 하악의 arch length discrepancy는 하악 절치의 MD/FL index와, 상악의 arch length discrepancy는 측절치의 MD/FL index에서 상관관계를 나타내었다. 4. 정상군과 밀집군의 각 계측항목의 t-검정 결과 하악의 arch length discrepancy, overbite에서만 유의차를 나타내었다.

Purpose: In order to clarify the correlation of mandibular setback using bilateral intraoral vertical ramus osteotomy (BIVRO) and post-surgical transverse mandibular width (TMW), this study examined the pre- and postsurgical changes in hard and soft tissues of TMW and the relationship of TMW and the amount of mandibular setback. Patients and Methods: One-hundred seven patients who had undergone BIVRO were evaluated radiographically and clinically. A comparison study of the changes in hard and soft tissue after surgery in all 107 patients was performed with preoperative, 1 month, 3 month, 6 month and 1 year postoperative posteroanterio cephalograms and clinical photographs by tracing. And this changes were evaluated in parts to amounts of mandibular setback. Results: Statistically significant increases of TMW in hard and soft tissue from preoperative to postoperative 1 month were seen. TMW in hard tissue from 1 month to 1 year postopertive were gradually decreased. TMW in soft tissue was not changed uniformly but almost equal to pre-operative width. And there was no significant correlation between TMW and amount of mandibular setback. Conclusions: The results show that mandibular setback using BIVRO did not significantly influence increasing of TMW in soft tissue.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to analyse the facial changes and factors contributing to then after bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy of mandibular prognathism. Materials and Methods : Forty patients with Class III dental and skeletal malocclusion who were treated with bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy were reviewed. Frontal and lateral cephalometric radiographs were taken preoperatively, immediate postoperatively and more than six months postoperatively in each patient. After tracing the cephalometric radiographs, various parameters were measured. Results : 1. Gonial angle at postoperative two days was decreased about $10.4^{\circ}$ than preoperatively and gonial angle at postoperative six months was increased about $6.8^{\circ}$ than postoperative two days. So, gonial angle at postoperative six months was decreased about $3.6^{\circ}$ than preoperative gonial angle. 2. Facial height postoperative two days was decreased about 0.8mm than preoperatively and facial height at postoperative six months was decreased about 0.7mm than postoperative two days. So, facial height at postoperative six months was decreased about 1.5mm than preoperative facial height. 3. Mandibular width postoperative two days was decreased about 1.0mm than preoperatively and mandibular width at postoperative six months was increased about 1.8mm than postoperative two days. So, mandibular width at postoperative six months was decreased about 2.8mm than preoperative mandibular width. 4. Amount of set back and mandibular plane angle were not influencing on relapse degree. Conclusion : It is thought that bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy in mandibular prognathic patients is effective to improve long face and steep gonial angle. More prudent operation and careful postoperative management is required to maintain stable face postoperatively. Further research for soft tissue changes and factors which are related with relapse is needed.
