Statement of problem. In Korea, the preliminary impression trays for dental and edentulous maxillae are manufactured on the base of the statistical value of Westerners. There had been less study on the dental and edentulous arches of Koreans. Purpose. The purpose of this study was to evaluate an average dental cast, preliminary impression trays, three-dimensional relation of dental and edentulous maxilla of Koreans Material and methods. The subjects for this study were 173 dental casts of maxilla (dental: 52, edentulous : 146) with ages $18\{\sim}60$ years old. Each of the master casts was measured 69 measuring points on the dental cast or maxilla, and 46 measuring points on the edentulous cast of maxilla with three-dimensional digital measuring machine. Each measuring points were analysed and were overlapped, that three dimensional dental graphic manufactured by CAD/CAM system. Results. 1. A standard of distribution to alveolar bone were width between left and right buccal border lines of the standard 3/4 line. The mean value of dental and edentulous casts were 67.27mm, 63.49mm respectively. 2. Morphological classification of dental casts were divided into three groups or V-shape, O-shape, U-shape, that proportion of distribution were 17%, 16%, 67%, respectively. Dimensional classification of the dental casts were divided into five groups of less than 63mm, 63 up to 65mm, 65 up to 67mm. 67 up to 69mm, more than 69mm, respectively. 3. Morphological classification of edentulous casts were divided into three groups or V-shape, O-shape, U-shape, that proportion of distribution were 18%, 17%, 65%, respectively Dimensional classification of the edentulous casts were divided into five groups of less than 57mm, 57 up to 61mm, 61 up to 65mm, 65 up to 69mm, more than 69mm, respectively. 4. Mean dental and edentulous cast of maxilla were overlapped, the proportion of bone resorption to alveolar bone is higher than that of palatal bone, its difference were higher anterior 2/4 area than posterior 3/4 area. Conclusion. It obtains information of preliminary impression trays for dental and edentulous maxilla of Koreans.

In case of skeletal Class III malocclusion with underdeveloped maxilla, the extraoral orthopedic force for the stimulation of maxillary growth or anterior reposition of the maxilla has been used clinically for the improvement of facial skeletal relationship. The purpose of this investigation was to examine the initial reaction of maxillofacial complex to the maxillary protraction by using extraoral orthopedic force. The dried human skull was used and this investigation was done by means of double exposure holographic interferometry. The protraction forces placed on the canine or the first molar were parallel, $10^{\circ}$ downward, $20^{\circ}$ downward to the occlusal plane. Fringe pattern of each protraction condition was compared and analized. The results were as follows: 1. Each maxillofacial bone displaced saparately. 2. More displacement was shown at the area of the teeth and the alveolar bone. 3. A counterclockwise rotation of the maxilla wa decreased by downward protraction and especially 20 degree downward protraction from the canine showed least rotation. 4. On the zygomatic arch, outward bend was observed and this effect was decreased by downward protraction. 5. On the zygomatic bone, the counter clockwise rotation was increased by the downward protraction. 6. When maxillary expansion was applied at the same time, outward and upward displacement with counterclockwise rotation was observed on the maxilla. 7. The lateral pterygoid plate of sphenoid bone was affected by maxillary protraction.

Odontogenic Myxoma of the jaws is a rare benign tumor derived from embryonic mesenchymal elements of dental anlage. It appears to originate from the dental papilla, follicle or periodontal ligament. Odontogenic Myxoma of the maxilla is less frequent but behaves more aggressively than that of the mandible, because it spreads through the maxillary sinus. Radiographically, the tumors present as unilocular or multilocular radiolucent lesions with well-defined borders with fine, bony trabeculae. On gross examination, the tumor appears as a smooth, glistening, gelatinous, lobulated mass. On microscopic examination, these neoplasms exhibit loose arrangement of stellate-shaped cells. The intercellular substance is a mucinous and homogeneous matrix. We report a case of odontogenic myxoma of the maxilla observed in our clinic with good prognosis after partial maxillectomy.

This is a report of 2 cases on old maxilla fractures accompanied with sagittal palatal fracture and severe malocclusion. We treated them by using of classic Le Fort I osteotomy and modified Le Fort I osteotomy along the old fracture lines satisfactorily. The results obtained from treatment are as follows : 1. Careful examination and correct care on sagittal palatal fracture should be need during initial diagnosis and emergency care of maxilla fracture showed malocclusion. 2. Although early definite treatment of maxilla injuries is difficult due to major organ injuries associated with accident, the positive effort to induce normal occlusion is always necessary as soon as possible. 3. In the cases of malocclusion due to transverse discrepancy of maxillary dentition associated with injury as like as our cases, classic and modified Le Fort I osteotomy and rigid internal fixation were useful to correct occlusion, to ease operation and return normal functions early.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence and several radiographic features of dilacerated teeth in 2132 full month radiograms in Korean. The results were as follows: 1. The occurrence was revealed to 2.7% in total examined teeth, and these anomalies were occurred in maxilla (52.4%) more than in mandible (47.6%). 2. There was a predilection for occurrence of dilaceration in female, which included 12.8% of the female compared to 11.3% in male. 3. The frequency of dilaceration in male, which included 40.5% in maxilla and 59.5% in mandible. The frequency of dilaceration in female, which included 52.4% in maxilla and 47.6% in mandible. 4. The order of frequency of dilaceration was second premolar, first premolar, lateral incisor, canine in maxilla, and first premolar, second premolar, canine, lateral incisor, central incisor in mandible. 5. In classifying of dilacerated teeth into 3 types by following appearances such as root curvature. Distal dilaceration was by far most common containing 65.8% of the cases. The least frequent was mesial dilaceration, which included 6.5% of the cases.

Purpose: The purpose of this retrospective report was to analyze long-term survival rate of sintered porous-surfaced dental implant ($Endopore^{(R)}$ Dental Implant system, Innova Corporation, Toronto, ON, Canada). Methods: 61 partially edentulous patients were received a total of 127 Endopore dental implants in the maxilla. Of the 127 implants, 24 implants were restored with individual (ie, non-splinted) crowns, while 103 implants were splinted to other implants. Medical records and radiographs were evaluated and analyzed by the cumulative survival rate, location of implants, implants length and diameter, crown/implant ratio and whether the implant was splinted. Chi squire test was used statistically. Result: Of the 127 implants, 8 implants (6.3%) were removed and and cumulative survival rate was 93.7%. Conclusion: Endopore implants showed satisfactory results after up to 8 years function periods in the edentulous posterior maxilla.

Central odontogenic fibroma is an extremely rare benign tumor, accounting for less than 0.1% of all odontogenic tumors. The most recent literature review that only 69 cases have so far been reported. This tumor has a slow persistent growth that results in painless cortical expansion clinically, and well defined unilocular or multilocular radiolucent lesion. Root resorption of associated teeth is common, and lesions located between the teeth often cause root divergence. There is occurring tendency to female more than male, and occurring in the mandible and in the maxilla with equal frequency. The treatment is surgical excision with no tendency to undergo malignant transformation. We report a case of central odontogenic fibroma in the maxilla of a 27-year male with literatures review.

Multiple myeloma is a clonal neoplastic proliferation of terminally differentiated B-lymphocytes involving the skeletal system in a multifocal fashion. Its oral manifestations are less common in the maxilla than in the mandible due to the lower amount of hemopoietic bone marrow in the maxilla. We report the case of a 50-year-old man who presented with a mass in the left maxillary alveolar region with tooth mobility. The mass had become enlarged after the teeth were extracted 15 days previously. Radiographs demonstrated multiple punched-out radiolucent lesions in the skull and pelvic region. Computed tomography images showed a soft tissue density mass in the left maxilla, eroding the floor and walls of the maxillary sinus. Although several analytical techniques were used to characterize the lesion, it was finally confirmed as multiple myeloma through immunohistochemistry.
