이 연구의 목적은 유치 줄기세포에 대해 다양한 Calcium silicate-based material (CSM)의 세포독성을 비교하고 평가하는 것이다. Retro $MTA^{(R)}$ (RM), $EZ-Seal^{TM}$ (EZ), ENDOCEM $Zr^{(R)}$ (EN)의 powder를 세포 배지를 이용하여 용출시키고 filtering 하였다. 유치 줄기세포가 다양한 농도의 용출액 하 배양되었다. MTS assay를 통해 CSM 용출액이 세포 증식에 미치는 영향을 분석하였고, Flow cytometry analysis를 통해 세포 표현형의 변화 여부를 관찰하였다. 10% 농도의 용출액에서 배양된 유치 줄기세포의 흡광도 값은 RM > EN > EZ 순이었다(p = 0.0439). 그러나 유치 줄기세포는 재료에 관계없이 간엽줄기세포의 표현형을 유지했다. 세 종류의 CSM이 줄기세포 marker를 변형시키진 않았지만, EZ가 RM과 EN보다 세포적합성이 낮음을 알 수 있었다.

In this study, radiographic evaluation was made using panoramic radiography and cross-sectional tomography of SCANORA/sup (R)/ in male and female adults in their 20's on the relationship between the maxillary sinus floor and the apex of the maxillary molar, to test the accuracy and effectiveness of the cross-sectional tomography, and to use this information in the assessment of preop. and postop. root canal treatment, apical surgery, extraction and implantology. Forty-one adults with an average age of 24.4 years were studied using panoramic radiography and cross-sectional tomography. In panoramic view and cross-sectional view, the position of the apices of maxillary molars were classified as separated, contacted, or protruded type; the general shape of the maxillary sinus floor was evaluated horizontally and vertically from cross-sectional tomography. The accuracy of each radiography was tested using maxilla from 5 fresh cadavers from the Anatomy Lab at Yonsei University Dental College, and panoramic view and cross-sectional tomography were taken in the same condition as with the patients. The results were as follows: 1. Panoramic view and cross-sectional view were taken in the maxilla specimen, and the actual distance between the maxillary sinus floor and the tooth apices were measured in the specimen; the median values of the distance from the tooth apices to the maxillary sinus floor in the panoramic view, cross-sectional view and in the actual maxilla specimen were 2.83 mm, 4.51mm, and 4.l5mm, respectively. In the cross-sectional view, the measured distance was close to the actual distance but in the panoramic view, the measured distance was far from the actual distance. 2. When the results of the panoramic view and cross-sectional view were compared, 40.5％ of the results agreed with each other in the two radiographic methods and buccal roots of the 2nd molar were the closest to the maxillary sinus floor in the cross-sectional tomography. 3. In cross-sectional view, when the vertical relationship of the maxillary sinus floor and maxillary roots was assessed, in 1st molars, type II (the sinus floor that extends down to the buccolingual furcation area) was predominant, while in 2nd molars, type I (the sinus floor located above the level connecting the buccal and lingual apices) was predominant. In the horizontal relationship, in 1st molars, type II (the lowest floor of the maxillary sinus located in between the buccal and lingual roots) was predominant; in 2nd molars, type I (the lowest floor of the maxillary sinus located on the buccal side of the buccal roots) and type II appeared in similar frequency. In conclusion, the SCANORA/sup (R)/ cross-sectional tomography was more effective than the frequently used panoramic view, in that the relationship of the maxillary molars and maxillary sinus floor can be evaluated more accurately and the buccolingual cross-sectional view can also be observed. And maxillary sinus floor that was close to maxillary 2nd molar had tendency to be located on buccal side than that close to 1st molar. Therefore, cross-sectional tomography is an effective and accurate method to evaluate the position of the teeth in relation to the sinus floor preoperative and can be easily used to diagnose localized periapical lesions. Also, the image quality obtained was quite satisfactory.

In order to achieve a successful endodontic treatment, root canals must be obturated three-dimensionally without causing any damage to apical tissues. Accurate length determination of the root canal is critical in this case. For this reason, I've used the conventional periapical radiography, Digora/sup (R)/(digital imaging system) and Root ZX/sup (R)/(the frequency dependent type apex locator) to measure the length of the canal and compare it with the true length obtained by cutting the tooth in half and measuring the length between the occlusal surface and the apical foramen. From the information obtained by these measurements, I was able to evaluate the accuracy and clinical usefulness of each systems. whether the thickness of files used in endodontic therapy has any effect on the measuring systems was also evaluated in an effort to simplify the treatment planning phase of endodontic treatment. 29 canals of 29 sound premolars were measured with #15, #20, #25 files by 3 different dentists each using the periapical radiography. Digora/sup (R)/ and Root ZX/sup (R)/. The measurements were then compared with the true length. The results were as follows: 1. In comparing mean discrepancies between measurements obtained by using periapical radiography(mean error: -0.449±0.444 mm), Digora/sup (R)/(mean error: -0.417±0.415 mm) and Root ZX/sup (R)/(mean error: 0.123±0.458 mm) with true length. periapical radiography and Digora/sup (R)/ system had statistically significant differences(p<0.05) in most cases while Root ZX/sup (R)/ showed none(p>0.05). 2. By subtracting values obtained by using periapical radiography, Digora/sup (R)/ and Root ZX/sup (R)/ from the true length and making a distribution table of their absolute values. the following analysis was possible. In the case of periapical film. 140 out of 261<53.6％) were clinically acceptable satisfying the margin of error of less than 0.5 mm. 151 out of 261 (53,6％) were acceptable in the Digora/sup (R)/ system while Root ZX/sup (R)/ had 197 out of 261(75.5％) within the limits of 0.5mm margin of error. 3. In determining whether the thickness of files has any effect on measuring methoths, no statistically significant differences were found(p>0.05). 4. In comparing data obtained from these methods in order to evaluate the difference among measuring methods, there was no statistically significant difference between periapical radiography and Digora/sup (R)/ system(p>0.05), but there was statistically significant difference between Root ZX/sup (R)/ and periapical radiography(p<0.05). Also there was statistically significant difference between Root ZX/sup (R)/ and Digora/sup (R)/ system(p<0.05). In conclusion, Root ZX/sup (R)/ was more accurate when compared with the Digora/sup (R)/ system and periapical radiography and seems to be more effective clinically in determining root canal length. But Root ZX/sup (R)/ has its limits in determining root morphology and number of roots and its accuracy becomes questionable when apical foramen is open due to unknown reasons. Therefore the combined use of Root ZX/sup (R)/ and the periapical radiography are mandatory. Digora/sup (R)/ system seems to be more effective when periapical radiographs are needed in a short period of time because of its short processing time and less exposure.

골다공증의 진행은 뼈질량 감소와 골절위험 증가를 야기한다. 골다공증은 노인 인구에서 흔하며, 최근 들어 급속한 고령화 사회로 인해 그 환자수도 동반하여 크게 증가하고 있다. 현재 처방되는 골다공증 치료제의 대부분은 파골세포 억제 효과에 기반하여 골흡수를 방지한다. 그러나 이러한 골다공증 치료제는 새로운 뼈형성을 증가시키지는 못하며 수반되는 여러 부작용도 보고되고 있다. 따라서 골다공증의 새로운 제어와 치료법 개발을 위해 성체줄기세포의 골세포 분화유도와 조골세포 활성을 도모하는 재생의학적 접근이 활발히 연구되고 있다. 스타틴(statin) 계열 약물은 혈중 콜레스테롤 강하제로 심혈관 질환에 흔히 처방되는 치료제이다. 흥미롭게도 최근 일련의 연구에서 이러한 스타틴이 조골세포 활성에 긍정적인 영향을 주어 뼈형성을 촉진한다는 보고가 발표되고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 이러한 스타틴 약물이 인체 골막유래 성체줄기세포의 골세포 분화과정이나 조골세포 활성에 영향이 있는 지를 분석하였다. 현재 임상적으로 처방되는 총 7 종류의 스타틴 약물에 대해, 골막유래 성체줄기세포의 골세포 분화과정에서 조골세포 활성과 관련된 초기와 후기 표지자인 alkaline phosphatase의 활성과 칼슘 침착을 각각 분석하였다. 본 연구에서 일부 스타틴(pitavastatin과 pravastatin)은 약하지만 뼈형성을 증가시키는 효과가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 연구결과는 스타틴이 골막유래 줄기세포로부터 골세포로의 분화나 조골세포 활성을 조절할 수 있는 물질이 될 수 있으며, 이러한 약물이 골세포분화나 재생의학의 새로운 조절 물질로서 골다공증 치료에 응용될 수 있음을 제시한다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy and usefulness of spiral tomography through the comparison and analysis of SCANORA cross-sectional tomographs and DentaScan computed tomographic images of dry mandibles taken by a SCANORA spiral tomographic machine and a computed tomographic machine. Thirty-one dry mandibles with full or partial edentulous areas were used. To evaluate the possible effect of location in the edentulous area, it was divided into 4 regions of Me (region of mental foramen), MI (the midportion between Me and M2), M2 (the midportion between mental foramen and mandibular foramen) and S (the midportion of the mandibular symphysis). A ZPC column (sized 4 mm x 5 mm) was seated on the edentulous regions of Me, MI, M2 and S using the acrylic stent. Then SCANORA spiral tomography and computed tomography were taken on the edentulous regions which contained the ZPC column. The ZPC columns and cross-sectional images of the mandible were measured in the radiographs by three observers and the differences between the two imaging modalities were analysed. The results were as follows: 1. In comparing the actual measurements of the ZPC column and measurements in the radiographs, the mean error of the DentaScan computed tomography was 0.07 mm in vertical direction and -0.06 mm in horiwntal direction, while the mean error of the SCANORA spiral tomography was 0.06 mm in vertical direction and -0.12 mm in horizontal direction. There was a significant difference between the two radiographic techniques in the horizontal measurement of the ZPC column of the symphysis region (p<0.05). But there was no significant difference in the measurements of other regions (p>0.05). 2. In measurements of the distance from the alveolar crest to the inferior border of the mandible (H), and of the distance from the alveolar crest to the superior border of the mandibular canal (Y), there was no significant difference between the two radiographic techniques (p>0.05). 3. In measurements of the distance from the lingual border of the mandible to the buccal border of the mandible (W), and of the distance from the lingual border of the mandible to the lingual border of the mandibular canal (X), there was a significant difference between the two radiographic techniques in measurements of the midportion between the mental foramen and the mandibular foramen (M2) (p<0.05). But there were no significant differences in measurements of the other regions of symphysis (S), mental foramen (Me), the first one-fourth portion between the mental foramen and the mandibular foramen (M1) (p>0.05). 4. Considering the mean range of measurements between observers, the measurements of SCANORA spiral tomography showed higher value than those of DentaScan computed tomography, except in measurements of symphysis (S). 5. On the detectability of the mandibular canal, there was no significant difference between the two radiographic techniques (p>0.05). In conclusion, SCANORA spiral tomography demonstrated a higher interobserver variance than that of DentaScan computed tomography for implant site measurements in the posterior edentulous area of the mandible. These differences were mainly the result of difficulty in the detection of the border of the mandible in SCANORA spiral tomography. But considering the cost and the radiation exposure, SCANORA spiral tomography can be said to be a relatively good radiographic technique for implant site measurement.

에나멜모세포종(ameloblastoma)은 하악부에 드물게 생기는 상피성 종양으로서 치원성(齒原性)의 모든 종양과 낭(囊)의 약 $1\%$를 차지한다. 이들은 서서히 자라는 종양이지만 국소적으로 침습성을 보이고 높은 재발율을 나타낸다. 반면에 원격전이는 드물다. 에나멜모세포종은 방사선에 저항적이라고 알려져 있었기에 드문 경우들외에는 주로 수술적 요법으로 치료되어져 왔다. 그러나 최근에 에나멜모세포종이 방사선에 반응을 보이므로 수술가 병용하거나 방사선치료 단독으로 치료에 쓰일 수도 있다는 보고들이 나왔다. 저자들은 수술후 방사선치료 여부를 결정하기 위해 본 치료방사선과에 의뢰된 2예의 에나멜모세포종 중 1예에서 수술후 방사선치료를 실시하였기에 이들 2예를 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
