  • 교정치료의 고정원으로서 수술용 Microscrew가 소개되고 사용되어 왔다. 몇몇 임상가들은 Miniscrew혹은 Microscrew를 치근의 손상을 피하기 위하여 치근 하방의 기저골에 식립하여 사용하여 왔다 그러나 저자는 Microimplant를 치근 손상없이 치근사이의 치조골에 식립하여 고정원으로 사용하여 왔다. 이렇게 하므로서 치근하방에 식립할때 생기는 문제점인 수직 분력이 커지고 수평 분력이 작아지는 것을 방지하여 상악의 경우 적절한 후상방 교정력을 가할 수 있다 그리고 치조골에 상악의 경우 치아 장축에 대하여 30-40도의 각도로, 하악의 경우 10-20도의 각도로 식립하여 교정력의 방향을 전술한 바와 같이 수평방향으로 바꾸고 긴 Micro-implant를 치근 손상의 위험성을 줄이며 식립하여 안정도를 높일 수 있었다. 그러나 Mciro-implant를 치근사이 치조골에 식립하는데 기준이 되는 어떠한 연구도 이루어 지지 않았다. 본 연구는 Micro-implant식립에 기준이 되는 즉 치근 손상 없이 비교적 안전하게 식립할 수 있는 부위의 선택을 위한 근거 자료를 얻기 위하여 시행되었다. 21명 환자를 대상으로 치조골로부터 5-7mm에 해당하는 CT 절단면을 선택하여 피질골의 두께, 피질골 표면과 치근과의 거리, 치근사이의 거리등을 측정하였다. 각 부위별 피질골의 두께, 골 표면과 치근사이의 거리, 인접 치근사이의 거리등을 구하였다. .피질골의 두께는 전치부에서 구치부로 이행할수록 두꺼웠다. 특히 하악골 구치부에서 가장 두꺼웠다. 인접 치근 사이의 거리 계측 항목에서 상악에서는 제2소구치와 제 1대구치사이, 하악에서는 제 1대구치와 제 2대구치 사이에서 가장 큰 값을 보였다.

  • Exosomes are Nano-sized lipid vesicles secreted from mammalian cells containing diverse cellular materials such as proteins, lipids, and nucleotides. Multiple lines of evidence indicate that in saliva, exosomes and their contents such as microRNAs (miRNAs) mediate numerous cellular responses upon delivery to recipient cells. The objective of this study was to characterize the different expression profile of exosomal miRNAs in saliva samples, periodically isolated from a single periodontitis patient. Unstimulated saliva was collected from a single patient over time periods for managing periodontitis. MicroRNAs extracted from each phase were investigated for the expression of exosomal miRNAs. Salivary exosomal miRNAs were analyzed using Affymetrix miRNA arrays and prediction of target genes and pathways for its different expression performed using DIANA-mirPath, a web-based, computational tool. Following the delivery of miRNA mimics (hsa-miR-4487, -4532, and -7108-5p) into human gingival fibroblasts, the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and activation of the MAPK pathway were evaluated through RT-PCR and western blotting. In each phase, 13 and 43 miRNAs were found to be differently expressed $({\mid}FC{\mid}{\geq}2)$. Among these, hsa-miR-4487 $({\mid}FC{\mid}=9.292005)$ and has-miR-4532 $({\mid}FC{\mid}=18.322697)$ were highly up-regulated in the clinically severe phase, whereas hsa-miR-7108-5p $({\mid}FC{\mid}=12.20601)$ was strongly up-regulated in the clinically mild phase. In addition, the overexpression of miRNA mimics in human gingival fibroblasts resulted in a significant induction of IL-6 mRNA expression and p38 phosphorylation. The findings of this study established alterations in salivary exosomal miRNAs which are dependent on the severity of periodontitis and may act as potential candidates for the treatment of oral inflammatory diseases.

  • Purpose: Various studies have investigated 3-dimensional (3D)-printed implants using Ti6Al-4V powder; however, multi-root 3D-printed implants have not been fully investigated. The purpose of this study was to explore the stability of multirooted 3D-printed implants with lattice and solid structures. The secondary outcomes were comparisons between the 2 types of 3D-printed implants in micro-computed tomographic and histological analyses. Methods: Lattice- and solid-type 3D-printed implants for the left and right mandibular third premolars in beagle dogs were fabricated. Four implants in each group were placed immediately following tooth extraction. Implant stability measurement and periapical X-rays were performed every 2 weeks for 12 weeks. Peri-implant bone volume/tissue volume (BV/TV) and bone mineral density (BMD) were measured by micro-computed tomography. Bone-to-implant contact (BIC) and bone area fraction occupancy (BAFO) were measured in histomorphometric analyses. Results: All 4 lattice-type 3D-printed implants survived. Three solid-type 3D-printed implants were removed before the planned sacrifice date due to implant mobility. A slight, gradual increase in implant stability values from implant surgery to 4 weeks after surgery was observed in the lattice-type 3D-printed implants. The marginal bone change of the surviving solid-type 3D-printed implant was approximately 5 mm, whereas the value was approximately 2 mm in the lattice-type 3D-printed implants. BV/TV and BMD in the lattice type 3D-printed implants were similar to those in the surviving solid-type implant. However, BIC and BAFO were lower in the surviving solid-type 3D-printed implant than in the lattice-type 3D-printed implants. Conclusions: Within the limits of this preclinical study, 3D-printed implants of double-rooted teeth showed high primary stability. However, 3D-printed implants with interlocking structures such as lattices might provide high secondary stability and successful osseointegration.
