심미성 복합레진은 자연 치질을 보존시키며 나아가 잔존 치질의 강도를 강화시켜 준다. 복합레진 수복시 더 많은 치질을 남기기 위해 첨와 (undercut) 형태의 교합면 치질을 남긴 채 복합레진으로 수복하는 경우가 많으나, 어느 정도 강도가 복원되는지에 대해서는 잘 알려져 있지 않다. 이에 본 연구에서는 첨와 형태의 와동을 잔존 치질의 두께 (법랑질 / 법랑질과 상아질)에 따라 형성하고 복합레진으로 충전한 경우, 수복된 치아의 파절 저항성을 손상이 없는 자연치와 비교평가하였다. 상악 대구치 40개의 교합면을 편평하게 삭제한 후 방사선 사진에서 치수각의 위치를 확인하였다. 대상 치아를 각 10개씩 4개군으로 분류하였으며, 1$\sim$3군은 실험군으로 모두 협측에 깊이 7 mm, 근원심 폭경 5 mm의 첨와 형태 와동을 형성하였고, 와동저에서 치수각까지의 거리를 약 0.5 mm로 유지하였으며 교합면쪽의 치질 두께를 달리하였다. 1군은 법랑질과 소량의 상아질로 구성된 치질 두께를 1 mm, 2군은 법랑질과 상아질의 두께를 1.5 mm, 3군은 법랑질과 상아질의 두께를 2 mm가 되도록 하였고, 4군은 건전한 자연치를 와동형성 없이 대조군으로 사용하였다. 두께 측정은 방사선 사진을 스캔한 후 길이 확대 프로그램을 이용하였다. 각 와동을 37% 인산으로 산부식한 다음 단일병 접착제 Single $Bond^{TM}$ (3M/ESPE, USA)를 적용하였고 혼합형 복합레진 Filtek $SZ-250^{TM}$ (3M/ESPE, USA)을 사용하여 적층 충전하였다. 치아를 실온에서 증류수에 24시간 동안 보관한 다음 Sof-Lex system (3M/ESPE, USA)을 사용하여 연마하였다. 이후 자가중합형 레진에 교합면을 기저부에 평행한 상태로 치근부를 매몰한 다음 Universal testing machine (Zwick Z010, Germany)에서 지름 3 mm의 staineless steel rod를 1 mm/min의 cross-head speed로 하중을 가하여 파절 강도를 측정하였다. 통계 분석은 95% 유의 수준의 One-way ANOVA와 Tukey test를 이용하였으며 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 와동 형성 후 복합레진을 수복한 군들은 대조군에 비해 약 75%의 파절 강도를 보였다. 2. 교합면쪽 잔존 치질의 두께에 따른 파절 저항은 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다 (p > 0.05). 복합레진을 이용하여 첨와 형태의 와동을 수복한 후 파절 강도를 측정한 결과 건전 치아보다는 강도가 낮았지만, 상부의 잔존 치질이 대부분 법랑질로 이루어진 경우에도 복합 레진으로 수복하면 건전 치아 파절 강도의 75%까지 유지할 수 있다는 결론을 얻었다.

교합면의 열구는 우식이 발생하기 쉬운 위치이며, 특히 초기우식병소는 건전해 보이는 법랑질 하방에서 진행되는 경우가 많고, 주위 건전 법랑질과 잘 구별되지 않아서 주기적인 검사에도 불구하고 우식의 치료 시기를 놓치는 경우가 종종 있다. 초기 우식을 조기에 진단할 경우 불소도포, 식이조절, 치태조절 능력개선 그리고 타액분비 촉진 등의 방법으로 그 병리적 과정을 차단하고, 조기에 치료할 수 있다는 관점에서 조기 진단은 중요시되고 있다. 본 연구는 발거된 치아에서 교합면 우식을 검출하기 위해 두가지 전통적인 진단법인 시진, 방사선 검사법에 대하여 레이저 형광측정법을 이용한 새로운 우식진단기구인 Diagnodent (Biberach, Germany)의 민감도, 특이도 그리고 정확도를 비교함으로서 교합면 초기 우식 병소에 대한 가장 신뢰성 있는 진단 방법에 대하여 평가하고자 하였으며 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. Diagnodent는 건전치에서 7.8, 초기우식에서 25.4, 법랑질 우식에서는 30.5 그리고 상아질 우식에서는 53.8의 평균값을 나타냈다. 2. 염료를 이용한 치아조직표본검사와 스피어만과 피어슨 상관계수에서 Diagnodent(0.736, 0.619)와 시진(0.664, 0.666)에서 높은 상관성을 나타냈고 방사선 촬영검사(0.333, 0.335)에서 가장 낮은 상관성을 나타냈다(P<0.01 전체). 3. 교합면 우식진단의 정확도는 Diagnodent가 65%로 가장 높았고 방사선 검사가 34%로 가장 낮았다. 4. 초기 우식의 경우, Diagnodent의 민감도와 특이도가 가장 높았고 법랑질 우식의 경우, 시진의 민감도가 가장 높았으며 Diagnodent의 특이도가 가장 높았다. 상아질 우식의 경우, Diagnodent의 민감도와 특이도가 가장 높았으며 시진의 민감도가 가장 낮았다.ed sealant는 기계적 삭제 방법을 사용한 경우와 산부식 방법만을 사용한 경우 모두 열구 침투도나 미세누출에 있어서 유의한 차이가 없었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 치면열구전색제 도포 시 열구 침투도가 우수하고 미세누출이 적은 기계적 삭제 방법과 물리적 성질이 우수한 filled sealant의 사용이 바람직하다고 생각된다. 그러나 미세누출에 있어 교합력을 고려한 실험이나 장기간의 임상실험이 필요할 것이다.5).vac/PE필름은 장기저장시 사용이 좋을 것으로 사료된다. 2) 질소가스 및 탄산가스투과도 각각 $61.6{\mu}PVDC/PE/Al-vac/CPS\;12.5,\;59.8>96.9{\mu}PE/PVDC/PE\;7.1,\;42.0>79.3{\mu}ET/PVDC/L-LDPE\;6.4,\;34.2>72.2{\mu}PET/PVDC/PE/Al-vac/PE\;0.74,\;4.2cc/m^2.24hr{\cdot}atm$으로 가장 우수한 PET/PVDC/PE/Al-vac/PE 복합필름이 장기저장용으로 이용이 좋을 것으로 사료된다.태발생을 연구하는데 기초적인 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 조사한 결과 유의확률이 0.05 이하인 수치들은 Hb과 Albumin, K, Na간, Neutrophil과 Leukocyte간이었고 상관계 수치는 $0.370{\sim}0.442$ 사이로 나타났다. 유의확률 0.01이하로 조사된 수치는 Cholesterol과 ALT간, LDH와 Platelet, Creatinine간, Platelet와 BUN간, Na와 K수치간 이었으며 상관계수는 $0.531{\sim}0.866$사이로 나타났다. 5. 농양환자에서의 검사치간 상관관계를 조사한 결과 유의확률이 0.05이하인 수치들은 CRP와 Neutrophil간 이었고 상관계수는 0.

Skeletal class III had been classified by the position of the maxilla, the mandible, the maxillary alveolus, the mandibular alveolus and vertical development. This morphologic approach is simple and useful for clinical use, but it is insufficient to permit understanding of the pathophysiology of dysmorphoses. The author hypothesizes that there are different patterns of mutual relation of the skeletal components which have contributed pathologic equilibrium of skeletal class III. The purpose of this study are threefold: 1) to classify skeletal class III in subgroups, which can show the architectural characteristics of the deformity, 2) to analyse the craniofacial architecture of each subgroup on etio-pathogenic basis, and 3) to characterize and visualize the pattern as a prototype. Materials used in this study were lateral cephalograms of 106 skeletal class III adults, which were analysed with modified Delaire's architectural and structural analysis. Linear and angular measurements of the individual subject were obtained and cluster analysis was used for the subgrouping. Data were evaluated for verification of the statistical significances. The following results were obtained. 1. By the modified Delaire's architectural and structural analysis and cluster analysis, skeletal class III adults were classified into 7 clusters and presented as prototypes, which could show the pathophysiology of the skeletal architecture 2. There was significant relationship in measurement variables of each cluster, which could reflect characteristics of the skeletal pattern of growth. 3. The flexure of cranial base had a close relationship to the anterior rotational growth of the maxilla and contributes to understand the etio-pathology of skeletal class III. 4. The proportion of craniospinal area in cranial depth, craniocervical angle and vertical position of point Om had a close relationship to rotational growth of the mandible and direction of condylar growth. They contribute to understand the etio-pathology of skeletal class III. In summary, the cranium and the craniocervical area must be considered in diagnosis and treatment planning of dentofacial deformity. And the occlusal plane can be considered as a representative which shows the mutual relationships of the skeletal components.

Objective: The additional arch length required for leveling (AALL) the curve of Spee (COS) can be estimated by subtracting the two-dimensional (2D) arch circumference, which is the projection of the three-dimensional (3D) arch circumference onto the occlusal plane, from the 3D arch circumference, which represents the arch length after leveling the COS. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the cusp tips or proximal maximum convexities are more appropriate reference points for estimating the AALL. Methods: Sixteen model setups of the mandibular arch with COS depths ranging from 0 mm to 4.7 mm were constructed using digital simulation. Arch circumferences in 2D and 3D were measured from the cusp tips and proximal maximum convexities and used to calculate the AALL. The values obtained using the two reference points were compared with the paired t -test. Results: Although the 3D arch circumference should be constant regardless of the COS depth, it decreased by 3.8 mm in cusp tip measurements and by 0.4 mm in proximal maximum convexity measurements as the COS deepened to 4.7 mm. AALL values calculated using the cusp tips as reference points were significantly smaller than those calculated using the proximal maximum convexities (p = 0.002). Conclusions: The AALL is underestimated when the cusp tips are used as measurement reference points; the AALL can be measured more accurately using the proximal maximum convexities.

The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that the more thorough cure of lightactivated composite resin could be obtained if a new way of delivering the light source deep through the resin body is developed when compared to the conventional bulk cure or incremental cure. Using cylindrical resin blocks and natural teeth, various curing conditions were tested for their effects on the degree of microleakage and microhardness. Data were analyzed statistically using One-Way ANOVA and Scheff's Multiple Range test. The results of the present study were as follows: 1. The increment of reduction in microhardness with depth was shown to be higher in group I and II than in group II and V. 2. At the level of lower inner surface and the bottom surface, significantly lower microhardness values were obtained in group I and II when compared to group III, IV and V. Group IV showed the lowest value among three groups(III, IV, V) representing the only statistically significant difference from group V(p<05). 3. Differences between groups in the degree of microleakage detected were shown to be statistically significant (p<05) with the exception of group IV and V at both occlusal and gingival margins. 4. Based upon the above-mentioned results, commonly cited recommendation of incremental curing is strongly supported and the light-transmitting wedge insertion method can be considered as a effective and feasible clinical procedure for the better curing of composite resin. However, more studies under a variety of conditions should be completed before this method is applied actually to the clinical setting.

Tooth mobility is one of the most important clinical parameters in examination, diagnosis, prognosis and treatment planning procedure. In order to determine the differences of tooth mobility according to radiographical bone level, clinical root length, clinical crown/root ratio, and bleeding on probing, 90 male adults with periodontal disease and 10 male adults with periodontal health($25{\sim}45$ years old) were selected through clinical examinations including occlusal relationship, probing depth, attachment level, and bleeding on probing. On the mandibular anterior teeth, standard periapical radiographs were taken, and tooth mobility was measured by Periotest(Siemens Co., Germany). The radiographic bone level of individual tooth was evaluated as coronal 1/3, middle 1/3, and apical 1/3 to anatomical root length, and clinical crown length from incisal edge to bone level and clinical root length from bone level to root apex were measured with Boley gauge, and subsquently clinical crown/root ratio was calculated. The difference of tooth mobility(Periotest value) according to radiographical bone level, clinical root length, clinical crown/root ratio, and bleeding on probing was statistically analyzed by unpaired Student t-test. Tooth mobility was significantly higher in bleeding group than non-bleeding group on probing in the teeth radiographic bone level of middle 1/3, with clinical root length longer than 6mm, and with clinical crown/root ratio over 0.3(p<0.01). But there was no statistical difference in tooth mobility between bleeding group and non-bleeding group on probing in the teeth with radiographic bone level of apical 1/3, with short clinical root length less than 5mm, and with clinical crown/root ratio under 0.2(p>0.05). The results note that the tooth mobility depends on clinical root length, clinical crown/root ratio and gingival inflammation, and in the teeth with relatively good alveolar bone support gingival inflammation is one of the most important factors that affect tooth mobility.

Statement of problem: The cement-type abutment would be needed for the reduction of its body in order to correct the axis and to assure occlusal clearance. In the case of intraoral preparation, there is a potential risk that generated heat could be transmitted into the bone-implant interface, where it can cause deterioration of tissues around the implant and failed osseointegration. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the difference of the heat transmitting effect on external and internal connection implant types under various conditions. Material and method: For evaluating the effects of alternating temperature, the thermocoupling wires were attached on 3 areas of the implant fixture surface corresponding to the cervical, middle, and apex. The abutments were removed 1mm in depth horizontally with diamond burs and were polished for 30 seconds at low speed with silicone points using pressure as applied in routine clinical practice. Obtained data were analyzed using Mann-Whitney rank-sum test and Wilcoxon / Kruskal-Wallis Tests. Result: Increased temperature on bone-implant interface was evident without air-water spray coolant both at high speed reduction and low speed polishing (p<.05). But, the difference between connection types was not shown. Conclusion: The reduction procedure of abutment without using proper coolant leads to serious damage of oral tissues around the implant irrespective of external and internal connection type.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of dentin adhesives(Gluma$^{(R)}$ and Scotchbond 2$^{(R)}$) on the marginal adaptation of light cured composite resin (Heliosit$^{(R)}$) by using SEM. The recently extracted 30 teeth were used and round cavities were prepared on the occlusal surfaces of the teeth with predesigned depth and diameter. The teeth were divided into three groups. Group 1 : Gluma$^{(R)}$ + Heliosit$^{(R)}$ Group 2 : Scotchbond 2$^{(R)}$ + Heliosit$^{(R)}$ Group 3 : Enamelbond$^{(R)}$ + Heliosit$^{(R)}$ Filling with Heliosit, the teeth were stored in saline solution for 24 hours. After the thermocycling procedure, the teeth were cut vertically into the restorations. The SEM observation was carried out to evaluate the marginal adaptation of the composite resin. The following results were obtained. The following results were obtained. 1. The groups using Gluma$^{(R)}$ and Scotchbond 2$^{(R)}$ showed better than the control group on marginal adaptation to the dentin. 2. The group using Gluma$^{(R)}$ was superior to the group using Scotchbond 2$^{(R)}$, but the difference was not significant. 3. In all groups, the marginal gaps were wider on the pulpal walls than on the lateral walls of restorations.

Purpose : This article is to describe a modified device for intraoral radiography which was developed to obtain reproducible radiographic images for assessment of distal osseous defects of the mandibular second molar (2 Mm) after impacted third molar (3 Mm) surgery. Materials and Methods : A commercial available alignment system for posterior region was modified by adding a reference gauge pin (millimetric) and threading a hollow acrylic cylinder at the ring of the radiographic positioner to attach the X-ray collimator. The design included customized resin acrylic stent for the occlusal surface of the 2Mm in maximum intercuspal position, individualizing the biteblock positioner. Periapical radiographs were taken before and after surgical extraction of 3 Mm, employing the radiographic technique of parallelism described by Kugelberg (1986) with this modified film holder and inserting the gauge pin on the deepest bone probing depth point. Results : This technique permitted to obtain standardized periapical radiographs with a moderate to high resolution, repeatability, and accuracy. There was no difference between the measurements on the pre- and post-operative radiographs. This technique allowed better maintenance of the same geometric position compared with conventional one. The insertion of the gauge pin provided the same reference point and localized the deepest osseous defect on the two-dimensional radiographs. Conclusion : This technique allowed better reproducibility in posterior radiographic records (distal surface of 2 Mm) and more accurate measurements of radiographic bone level by the use of a millimetric pin.
