  • Background Temporalis muscle transfer produces prompt surgical results with a one-stage operation in facial palsy patients. The orthodromic method is surgically simple, and the vector of muscle action is similar to the temporalis muscle action direction. This article describes transferring temporalis muscle insertion to reconstruct incomplete facial nerve palsy patients. Methods Between August 2009 and November 2011, 6 unilateral incomplete facial nerve palsy patients underwent surgery for orthodromic temporalis muscle transfer. A preauricular incision was performed to expose the mandibular coronoid process. Using a saw, the coronoid process was transected. Three strips of the fascia lata were anchored to the muscle of the nasolabial fold through subcutaneous tunneling. The tension of the strips was adjusted by observing the shape of the nasolabial fold. When optimal tension was achieved, the temporalis muscle was sutured to the strips. The surgical results were assessed by comparing pre- and postoperative photographs. Three independent observers evaluated the photographs. Results The symmetry of the mouth corner was improved in the resting state, and movement of the oral commissure was enhanced in facial animation after surgery. Conclusions The orthodromic transfer of temporalis muscle technique can produce prompt results by applying the natural temporalis muscle vector. This technique preserves residual facial nerve function in incomplete facial nerve palsy patients and produces satisfying cosmetic outcomes without malar muscle bulging, which often occurs in the turn-over technique.

  • 보툴리눔 독소는 Clostridium botulinum이라는 박테리아가 만들어내는 독소를 의료용으로 희석, 정제한 약제로서 이 독소가 시냅스 전 신경말단에 부착되어 신경근접합부에서 아세틸콜린의 분비를 억제함으로써 근육의 수축을 차단하는 역할을 한다. 보툴리눔 독소 주사 요법은 구강안면 분야에서 저작근의 근경축, 근경련, 운동이상증, 측두하악관절질환, 근막통증, 이갈이, 특발성 교근비대증 또는 만성편두통을 비롯한 두통 등 다양한 질환에서 가역적, 보존적 치료법으로 활발히 사용되고 있다. 사용 범위가 넓어지면서 교근이나 측두근 같은 저작근 부위에 주사를 하는 경우가 많아지고 있으며 그러한 경우 약제자체의 약리학적 작용에 의해 일시적인 근마비 및 근위축에 따라 저작기능에 변화가 생기게 된다. 하지만 지금까지 보툴리눔 독소 주사치료의 효과나 활용에 대한 연구만이 주를 이루었고 부작용 중의 하나인 저작기능 변화에 대한 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않았다. 몇몇 저작기능과 관련한 연구 또한 근전도 등을 이용한 정적인 상태의 저작력 감소에 대한 연구로, 실제로 동적인 저작 환경을 반영하는 저작 효율에 대해서는 현재까지 전혀 연구가 이루어지지 않은 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 총 40명의 건강한 성인환자를 대상으로 보툴리눔 A형 독소 주사 요법을 교근 부위에만 시술 받은 사람 과 교근과 측두근 부위 모두에 시술 받은 사람 각각 20명씩 두 군으로 나누어 주사를 시행하고, 주사 전과 주사 후 4주, 8주, 12주째의 저작 효율의 변화를 주관적 평가방법인 식품섭취능 (Food Intake Ability, 이하 FIA)과 저작 능력에 대한 주관적 인식도 (Visual Analogue Scale, 이하 VAS), 객관적 평가 방법인 Mixing Ability Test를 시행하여 알아보았다. 그 결과 보툴리눔 A형 독소 주사 후 4주 째에 저작효율의 뚜렷한 감소가 나타났으며 이후 서서히 회복되는 경향을 보였다. 주사부위를 달리하여 본 결과 교근과 측두근에 모두 주사를 시행하는 경우, 교근에만 주사를 시행하는 경우에 비해 주관적, 객관적인 값 모두 낮게 나타났다. 주관적인 값에 있어서 4주 째 유의하였으나 이후에는 유의하지 않았으며 객관적인 값은 전 기간에 걸쳐 유의하지 않았다. 실험에서 정한 주사 용량에 대해서는 측두근까지 주사가 이루어지더라도 교근만 주사를 시행한 사람과 비교하여 저작효율의 큰 차이가 없는 것으로 보인다. 또한 식품성상에 따라 저작 효율을 살펴본 결과 보툴리눔 A형 독소 주사가 단단하고 질긴 음식 섭취에 더 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 보이며 무르고 약한 음식의 섭취 시에도 유의할만한 영향을 받는다는 사실을 확인 할 수 있었다.

  • Background: Rehabilitation of normal function and form is essential in cleft lip repair. In 2005, Dr. David M. Fisher introduced an innovative method, named "an anatomical subunit approximation technique" in unilateral cleft lip repair. According to this method, circumferential incision along the columella on cleft side of the medial flap is continued to the planned top of the Cupid's bow in straight manner, which runs parallel to the unaffected philtral ridge. Usually, small inlet incision is needed to lengthen the medial flap. On lateral flap, small triangle just above the cutaneous roll is used to prevent unesthetic shortening of upper lip. This allows better continuity of the Cupid's bow and ideal distribution of tension. Case presentation: As a modification to original method, orbicularis oris muscle overlapping suture is applied to make the elevated philtral ridge. Concomitant primary rhinoplasty also results in good esthetic outcome with symmetric nostrils and correction of alar web. As satisfactory results were obtained in three incomplete and one complete unilateral cleft lip patients, indicating Fisher's method can be useful in cleft lip surgery with functional and esthetic outcome. Conclusions: Clinically applied Fisher's method in unilateral cleft lip patients proved the effectiveness in improving the esthetic results with good symmetry. This method also applied with primary rhinoplasty.

  • Objectives: The purpose of the study is to investigate the change of the salivary flow rate, xerostomia, and oral health-related quality of life in the elderly people after the application of oral massage. Methods: The subjects were 101 elderly people at two senior welfare centers in Mokpo from November, 2012 to January, 2013 by the application of oral massage. The final subjects were 56 elderly people who participated in the massage more than 15 times of 20. They were measured for saliva flow rate, xerostomia, and OHIP. On the first and the last day, a self-reported questionnaire was completed by the elderly people. The questionnaire consisted of general characteristics of the subjects, oral health related knowledge, symptoms and behavior of xerostomia, and OHIP. OHIP included functional limitation, physical pain, psychological discomfort, physical disability, psychological disability, social disability, and handicap, and was measured by Likert 5 point scale. Results: The salivary flow rate of the elderly people increased after the implementation of the program. There was a significant improvement in xerostomia, functional limitation, physical pain, psychological discomfort, and social efficacy (p<0.001). Conclusions : The oral massage program enhanced the oral function of the elderly people, and had an influence on the improvement of oral health-related quality of life.

  • 교근비대 환자들은 그들의 각진 턱을 심미적으로 개선시키기 위해 교근 두께를 줄이기를 희망한다. 과거엔 수술적인 방법이 널리 알려져 왔지만 최근 양측으로 주사하는 보톡스 시술이 수술에 비해 덜 침습적이기에 그 대안으로 관심이 대두되고 있다. 이 연구의 목적은 기존의 양측성 교근비대에서 양측에 동량을 주사하는 방법과 달리 편측성 교근비대 환자에서 보툴리눔 독소를 편측으로만 주입 후 삼차원 레이저스캐너를 이용하여 안모의 부피변화를 측정하고자 하였다. 삼차원 레이저스캐너를 이용하여 술전에 편측성 교근비대 환자 10명의 하안모 부피를 측정한 후, 편측으로 보툴리눔 A형 독소 주사 25U이 주사되었다. 주사 4주, 8주, 12주 후 같은 방법으로 하안모의 부피를 측정한 뒤 술전의 삼차원 사진과 중첩하여 변화된 부피를 측정하였다. 주사한 쪽의 부피는 술전에 비해 보툴리눔 독소 주사 4주, 8주, 12주 후 현저히 줄어들었으며 통계학적으로 유의미한 결과를 보였다. 반면 주사안한 쪽의 부피는 특기할 변화가 없었다. 따라서 편측성 교근비대 환자에서 편측 보툴리눔 독소 주사 후 주사한 쪽의 부피가 현저히 감소하여 근육성 비대칭 환자에서 편측 보툴리눔 독소 주사가 심미적 개선에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • In this study, 88 dental students were examined to evaluate the relationship between occlusal states and TM disorders for the epidemiologic study of TM disorders. The clinical evaluation were composed of mandibular movement, TMJ noise, occlusal states and muscle palpation. The following results were disclosed. 1. The frequencies of pain on mandibular movement were 3.4% on maximum opening, 1.13% on protrusion and no pain on laterotrusion. 2. The frequencies on TMJ sound were 21.6% in click, 1.13% in crepitus. 3. The frequency of tenderness on palpation was 12.5% on extra oral, intraoral and neck muscles, tenderness on palpation of TMJ capsule were reported 5 cases, and 4 of them were female. 4. The distribution of Angle's classification was found 79.5% in class I, 4.5% in clasII-div.1 and 15.9% in class III. There was no significant differences on TM disorders between Angles classifications. 5. There was no significant differences on TM disorders between the subjects of canine guided occlusion and group function occlusion, and also for the differences between the subjects of nonworking side interferences and no interferences on laterotrusion. 6. There was no significant differences on TM disorders between the subjects of anterior teeth trauma in C.C. and no anterior teeth trauma, but there were significant differences between the subjects of posterior protrusive contact and no posterior protrusive contact.

  • Intermaxillary fixation and occusal splint are routine procedure for maxillofacial fracture and orthognathic surgery. When these methods could obstruct oral airway the patients who kept intermaxillary fixation and occusal splint in their mouth, are very difficult to breath after surgery. Nasal bleeding and pharyngeal edema due to nasotracheal intubation, residual effect of muscle relaxants, and anesthetic agent could be contributing factor of airway obstruction. In this study, pulmonary function test was evaluated before and after intermaxillary fixation, and intermaxillary fixation with occusal splint in 22 volunteers. The results were as follows 1. FVC, %FVC, $FEV_1$, $FEV_1%$, PEF, $PEF_{50}$, MVV without intermaxillary fixtion were 4.45L, 88%, 4.03L, 90.9%, 10.26L/s, 5.53L/s, and 136.14L/min, and with intermaxillary fixation were 3.51L, 68.67%, 3.06L, 69.39L, 6.52L/s, 3.94L/s, and 69.39L/min. The results with intermaxillary fixation and occusal splint were 2.15L, 42.41%, 1.71L, 38.81%, 2.83L/s, 1.74L/s, and 37.14L/min. 2. Compared with before and after intermaxillary fixation, all values of pulmonary function test were decreased and after intermaxillary fixation and intermaixillary fixation with occulasal splint, the results were decreased. 3. MVV and PEF were decreased significantly with interaxillary fixtion and occusal splint, and FVC was less decreased. It meant that intermaxillary fixation and occluasal splint induced reduction of respiratory flow significantly, but less reduction of respiratory volume. 4. Intermaxillary fixation and occulsal splint induced increase of airway resistance, decrease of expiratory volume and air flow. So severe respiratory difficulty could be seen to all volunteers who kept intermaxillary fixtion and occusal splint. 5. In classification of respiratory difficulty, intermaxillary fixation with occulsal splint induced complex respiratory difficulty more than intermaxillary fixation only did. From the above results, doctors who care patients kept intermaxillary fixation and occusal splint should be aware of respiratory depression caused by these treatment.

  • In order to evaluate the effect of unilateral tooth clenching, the author observed a feature of producing the symptom complex related to pain and discomfort by the isometric unilateral canine biting under force of 5kg(FS) in Korean 31 adult females within normal masticatory function who were divided into the bilateral, the right and the left group according to their habitual sides of mastication, and analyzed the observed data statistically. The obtained results were as follows: 1. The duration of the isometric unilateral canine biting maintained before the occurrence of symptom complex related to pain and discomfort 66.72 seconds at right side and 39.50 seconds at left side in a group of subjects with bilateral habitual mastication. And the difference of the duration between of unilateral biting side was almost significant (P<0.05). 2. The most frequent region of occurrence of symptom complex related to pain and discomfort by the isometric unilateral canine biting was the contralateral superficial masseter muscle in a group of subjects with bilateral habitual mastication.

  • Velopharyngeal function refers to the combined activity of the soft palate and pharynx in closing and opening the velopharyngeal port to the required degree. In normal speech, during the production of oral consonant sounds elevation of the soft palate, along with the superior constrictor muscle, occludes the oropharynx from the nasopharynx. Inadequate velopharyngeal function caused by congenital or acquired insufficiency or incompetency may result in abnormal speech characterized by hypernasality, nasal emission and decreased intelligibility of speech due to weak consonant production. The speech aid is often helpful in improving the speech of individuals with velopharyngeal incompetency. In this article, the pathogenesis and treatment of velopharyngeal incompetence are discussed and a speech aid appliance that was constructed for the patient is described.
