The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of administration of Zea Mays L. on the healing process after periodontal surgery as adjuntives. Authors used 3 kinds of different clinical criteria, depth of periodontal pocket by using the Goldman Fox periodontal probe, degree, of tooth mobility by Periotest, and amount of occlusal force with electronic device. In this comparative clinical study, 30 patients who were divided into two group, 15 ZML administrated group and 15 placebo adminstrated group, were participated. All the examined teeth were isolated with gauze and air spray, and measured each clinical critera on the day of before surgery, 1, 2, 4, 8 weeks after surgery. The results were as follows. 1. The changes of the periodontal pocket depth, on the both of Zea Mays L. administrated group and placebo adminstrated group, revealed the decreasing tendency, and it was shown the time dependent tendency. But there was no statistically significant differences between the two group. 2. In the case of tooth mobility, both group showed the highest severe mobility on the 1 week after surgery. It was observed that experimental group had more effects on decreasing the mobility. But there was no statistically significant differences between the two group. 3. In the case of experimental group, the recovery trend of occlusal forces after periodontal surgery on the molar teeth revealed higher than the control group. But there was no statistically significant differences between the two group. In conclusion, Zea Mays L. may play a favorable role in the healing process after periodontal surgery. It was suggested that further study to evaluate the effects of selective administration on the patient who have systemic diseases should be needed.

PURPOSE. The aim of this review was to analyze the evaluation criteria on mandibular implant overdentures through a systematic review and suggest standardized evaluation criteria. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A systematic literature search was conducted by PubMed search strategy and hand-searching of relevant journals from included studies considering inclusion and exclusion criteria. Randomized clinical trials (RCT) and clinical trial studies comparing attachment systems on mandibular implant overdentures until December, 2011 were selected. Twenty nine studies were finally selected and the data about evaluation methods were collected. RESULTS. Evaluation criteria could be classified into 4 groups (implant survival, peri-implant tissue evaluation, prosthetic evaluation, and patient satisfaction). Among 29 studies, 21 studies presented implant survival rate, while any studies reporting implant failure did not present cumulative implant survival rate. Seventeen studies evaluating peri-implant tissue status presented following items as evaluation criteria; marginal bone level (14), plaque Index (13), probing depth (8), bleeding index (8), attachment gingiva level (8), gingival index (6), amount of keratinized gingiva (1). Eighteen studies evaluating prosthetic maintenance and complication also presented following items as evaluation criteria; loose matrix (17), female detachment (15), denture fracture (15), denture relining (14), abutment fracture (14), abutment screw loosening (11), and occlusal adjustment (9). Atypical questionnaire (9), Visual analog scales (VAS) (4), and Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP) (1) were used as the format of criteria to evaluate patients satisfaction in 14 studies. CONCLUSION. For evaluation of implant overdenture, it is necessary to include cumulative survival rate for implant evaluation. It is suggested that peri-implant tissue evaluation criteria include marginal bone level, plaque index, bleeding index, probing depth, and attached gingiva level. It is also suggested that prosthetic evaluation criteria include loose matrix, female detachment, denture fracture, denture relining, abutment fracture, abutment screw loosening, and occlusal adjustment. Finally standardized criteria like OHIP-EDENT or VAS are required for patient satisfaction.

상하악 전치부 치열은 치아의 형태 변위, 선천결손 등에 의해 종종 교합관계나 심미성에 문제점을 나타내게 된다. 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위해 임상의는 전치부 비율을 진단시 이용하게 되나, 치열궁 형태, 견치간 폭경(intercanine width), 치열궁 장경(segment depth)과 치열궁 둘레(arch perimeter)에 따른 전치부 비율의 변화로 인해 이러한 비율을 전치부 교합관계 예측에 직접 적용하는데는 한계가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 한국성인 정상교합자 모델(남자:20쌍, 여자:20쌍)에서 상하악 전치부 치열궁 형태를 least square method로 조사하였다. 한국인 정상교합자의 상하악 전치부 치열궁 형태는 다항 함수(polynomial function), 베타 함수(beta function), 하이퍼볼릭 코사인 함수(hyperbolic cosine function) 순으로 곡선 접합(curve fitting)하였으며, 이러한 곡선 접합도는 남녀, 상하악에 관계없이 일정하였다. 또한 곡선접합(curve fitting)된 치열궁 형태를 바탕으로 견치간 폭경(intercanine width), 치열궁 장경(segment depth)과 치열궁 둘레(arch perimeter)간의 상관관계를 구하였다. 이러한 상관관계는 견치간 폭경에 따른 치열궁 형태 예측과 보다 정확한 전치부 비율에 대한 정보를 제공할 것이다.

치아의 형태 이상, 선천결손 등에 의해 손상된 상하악 전치부 치열에서는 교정치료만으로는 적절한 기능 교합관계를 설정하지 못하는 경우가 많다. 치료후 상하악 전치부 치열에서 어떠한 치료가 필요할지를 미리 예측할 수 있다면 치료효율을 높일 수 있을 뿐 아니라, 타 분야와의 협진에도 보다 유리할 것이다. 이를 위해 이전의 연구에서는 한국인 정상 교합자를 이용한 견치간 폭경(intercanine width), 치열궁 장경(segment depth)과 치열궁 둘레(arch perimeter)간의 상관관계를 구했으며, 이번에는 이러한 관계를 이용한 컴퓨터 프로그램을 제작한 후 손상된 상하악 전치부 치열을 보이는 두 환자에게 이 프로그램을 치료 계획시 적용하여 보았다. 프로그램 적용 결과, 치료 계획시 필요한 변화량에 대한 정보와 각 변수간 변화(견치간 폭경, 치열궁 장경, 치열궁 둘레)에 따른 전치부 교합관계 변화를 보다 명확히 보여주었다. 추후 악안면 형태에 따른 전치부 치축변화와 치열궁 변화의 관계, 안정성 있는 견치간 폭경에 대한 정보를 제공한다면, 전치부에 대한 3차원 occlusogram의 제작이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

The aim of the present study was to describe an safe and convenient method for the early detection of enamel caries using laser fluorescence. Fluorescence from natually carious lesion of human teeth illuminated by an argon laser(488nm) was observed and photographed using barrier filter. Intact enamel was found to fluorescence with a yellowish light. Whereas, incipient caries lesions in the enamel were dearly visible as dark areas in contrast to the fluorescence surroundings. For evaluation of accuracy of this method, lesion depth measured by the laser fluorescence in light microscope was compared with that polarizing microscope. The results from the present study can be summarized as follows : 1. Enamel caries of smooth surface was observed as pale white spot and undefined outline in ordinary light. Whereas, lesion was clearly visible as dark spot in laser fluorescence. 2. There was no difference between ordinary light view and laser fluorescence in occlusal surface and interproximal surface. 3. There was no significant difference between the lesion depth observed by laser fluorescence with light microscope and polarizing microscope. Apparent correlation exists between two groups.

The Purpose of this study was to observe force required to remove some kinds of pin from dentin. The teeth were embedded within a resin cylinder and the occlusal surface was sectioned at a right angle to the axis of the cylinder to expose dentin surface. Thread mate system pin (minim and regular), friction Iocked pin and cemented pin were tested Pin holes were drilled by handpiece and depths of pin holes were tested 1,2 and 3mm. After insertion of the pins into pinhole, tensile loading was performed on the Instron testing machine at the speed of 0.5 inch/min. Results were follewed: 1. In retention, the cemented pins are the least, the friction locked pins intermediate and the self threading pins the greatest in all pins. In self threading pins, regalar pin has greater retention than minim pin 2. The deeper the depth of the pin hole is, the more the retention of the pin increases.

Objective: To evaluate and compare the effects of two appliances on the en masse retraction of the anterior teeth anchored by temporary skeletal anchorage devices (TSADs). Methods: The sample comprised 46 nongrowing hyperdivergent adult patients who planned to undergo upper first premolar extraction using lingual retractors. They were divided into three groups, based on the lingual appliance used: the C-lingual retractor (CLR) group (group 1, n = 16) and two antero-posterior lingual retractor (APLR) groups (n = 30, groups 2 and 3). The APLR group was divided by the posterior tube angulation; posterior tube parallel to the occlusal plane (group 2, n = 15) and distally tipped tube (group 3, n = 15). A retrospective clinical investigation of the skeletal, dental, and soft tissue relationships was performed using lateral cephalometric radiographs obtained pretreatment and post en masse retraction of the anterior teeth. Results: All groups achieved significant incisor and canine retraction. The upper posterior teeth did not drift significantly during the retraction period. The APLR group had less angulation change in the anterior dentition, compared to the CLR group. By changing the tube angulation in the APLR, the intrusive force significantly increased in the distally tipped tube of group 3 patients and remarkably reduced the occlusal plane angle. Conclusions: Compared to the CLR, the APLR provides better anterior torque control and canine tipping while achieving bodily translation. Furthermore, changing the tube angulation will affect the amount of incisor intrusion, even in patients with similar palatal vault depth, without the need for additional TSADs.

연구 목적: 본 연구는 고정성 국소의치 제작을 위한 상악 좌측 제2소구치 및 제2대구치의 지대치 삭제에 대하여 인체공학적으로 안정된 진료 자세를 확립하고, 치과의사의 일반적 작업 자세와 비교, 분석하고 인체공학적으로 안정된 자세의 임상적용 가능성을 알아보고 이를 이용하여 향후 치과의사 교육의 기초 자료로 활용하기 위함이다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 상악 좌측 고정성 국소의치를 위한 인체공학적으로 안정된 자세를 고안하고 임상 경력 3-6년의 보철과 전공의 과정에 있는 치과의사 8명을 선정하여 임의의 자세로 상악 좌측 고정성 부분의치 지대치 삭제를 시행하고 연구 대상자들에게 인체공학적으로 안정된 자세를 교육하고 연구 대상들에게 인체공학적으로 안정된 자세로 상악 좌측 고정성 국소의치 지대치 삭제를 시행하였다. 임의의 자세로 삭제 시행한 치아와 인체공학적으로 안정된 자세로 삭제 시행한 치아를 KHDP 3-dimensional measuring device를 사용하여 계측해 교합면 삭제량, 변연의 폭경, 변연의 깊이 축면 경사도. 그리고 삭제시간을 측정 비교하였다. 모든 계측된 결과를 윈도우즈용 SPSS 통계 프로그램 (ver. 18.0, SPSS, Chicago, IL, USA)을 이용하여 교합면 삭제량, 변연의 폭 및 깊이, 축면 경사도, 치아 삭제 시간을 평균값 및 표준편차 분석하고 T-test를 Random Position 와 Home Position에 따른 차이 검정하였다. 결과: 와(fossa) 부위에서의 교합면 삭제량은 상악 좌측 제2소구치 및 제2대구치 모두에서 지시삭제량에 비해 적었으며, 교두정에서의 삭제량은 지시삭제량 1.7 mm에비해 많았으나, Random position과 Home position간에 유의차는 없었다 (P > .05). 변연 폭의 삭제량은 상악 좌측 제2소구치 및 제2대구치 모두에서 지시삭제량에 비해 많았으며, Random position과 Home position간에 유의차는 없었다 (P > .05). 변연 깊이의 삭제량은 상악 좌측 제2소구치 및 제2대구치 모두에서 Random position이 Home position에 비하여 지시삭제량보다 깊었다 (P < .05). 축면경사각은 상악 좌측 제2소구치 및 제2대구치 모두에서 Home position의 축면 경사각이 Random position의 축면경사각보다 작았으나 유의차는 없었다 (P > .05). 피어슨 상관분석 결과, Random position에서 교합면 삭제량, 변연 깊이, 축면경사각은 서로에게 영향을 주고 있었으나, Home position에서는 측정결과 들이 거의 독립적으로 서로에게 영향을 주지 않았다 (P < .05). Home position 삭제 횟수가 많아질수록 삭제소요 시간은 줄어들었고, 이는 실험에 참여한 8명 모두에서 Random position 삭제시간과 비슷해지거나 더 짧았다. 결론: 고정성 국소의치를 위한 상악 좌측 제2소구치 및 제2대구치 삭제의 경우, 교합면 삭제량, 변연의 폭, 변연의 깊이, 축면 경사각에 있어서 Home position과 Random position 간에는 큰 차이가 없었다. 삭제시간, 인접치 인접면 손상 정도는 Home position이 Random position보다 적었다. 또한 자세분석을 한 결과 Home position이 Random position에 비하여 곧은 자세로 인체에 무리를 주지 않았다. 따라서 인체공학적으로 안정된 자세인 Home position의 임상적용 가능성이 높다고 생각된다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the changes of interproximal bone density by means of videodensitometer and to examine the clinical applicability of videodentitometer to assess the periodontal disease activity.Twelve interproximal sites, with periodontal pockets deeper than 5mm and vertical loss of bone on standard dental radiograph, were treated by subgingival curettage. The papilla bleeding index, the plaque index, the degree of mobility, the depth of pockets, and the level of attachment were measured. Standardized reproducible radiographs were taken by using the occlusal stent with parallelling film holder. The density of the interdental bone was measured on the radiographs by a videodensitometer at three levels: the most 'superficial' level; the 'deep' level, arbitrarily 1.5mm below: and the 'apical' level, where no bony changes were to be expected. The clinical parameter and the radiographical change were measured at initial, and 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after treatment.The results were as follows :1. The papilla bleeding index and the degree of mobility decreased significantly until 3 months after subgingival curettage and showed the Same level in the remaining experimental periods. 2. The pocket depth mainly decreased due to the gingival recession until 1 month after treatment, but to the attachment gain after 1 month. 3. The density of the interdental bone did not show a significance increase until 1 month after treatment, but showed a steady increase throughout the 6 months of observation. 4. The close relationships were shown between the decrease in pocket depth and the gain of attachment and the improvement of bone density at 6 months after treatment.
