교정치료를 위한 상악 제1 소구치, 하악 제2 소구치의 발치는 한국인에서 II급 부정교합환자가 많지 않기 때문에 그리 흔하지 않다고 생각한다. 이와 같은 발치는 다음과 같은 장점을 제공할 수 있다. 첫째, 하악 전치를 약간만 retraction을 하며, 주로 하악의 구치부를 전방이동하여 II급 관계의 key correction을 손쉽게 할 수 있다. 둘째, 하악 전치의 과도한 설측경사가 일어남을 방지한다. 이는 하악 안모의 심한 변화를 방지하여 준다. 단점으로는 하악 제1 대구치의 근심경사를 들 수 있으며 이는 적절한 mechanics의 사용으로 방지하여 줄 수 있다. 본 증례들은 II급 1류의 특성을 가진 환자들로서 상악 제1 소구치, 하악 제2 소구치의 발치를 이용하여 교정치료를 하여 비교적 양호한 결과를 얻어 다음과 같이 보고하고자 한다.

성장이 완료된 골격성 III급 부정교합의 치료는 골격 부조화의 심도, 절치 치축, overbite와 연조직 측모의 심미성 등을 고려하여 필요한 경우 교정치료와 악교정수술을 병행하여 골격과 치아관계 개선에 따른 기능의 증진외에도 안모의 심미성을 증진시킬 수 있다. 특히 전후방적, 수직적, 횡적인 골격 부조화가 크거나 안면비대칭이 있는 경우, 또한 악교정수술후의 안정성이나 보다 이상적인 안모를 위하여 양악수술을 시행한다. 중안면부 함몰환자에서 안와하연과 관골부는 보존하며 비상악체를 전방이동하는 pyramidal Le Fort II osteotomy 를 시행할 수 있으며, 안와하연과 관골부치 전방이동을 필요로 할 때는 quadrangular Le Fort II osteotomy 를 시행할 수 있다. 이 수술법은 안와하연의 위치를 변화시켜 안와체적에 영향을 미치므로 상악골의 횡적, 수직적 이동량이 5 mm 이상일 때는 시행할 수 없다. 서울대학교병원 치과진료부 교정과에 내원하여 중안면부 함몰과 하악전돌을 동반한 골격성 III급 부정교합으로 진단되어 교정-악교정수술 (Le Fort II osteotomy 와 BSSRO) 복합치료를 받은 2명의 환자에 대해 살펴보고자 한다.

Objectives: This study was designed to define the Korean norm values for the Ricketts analysis. Methods: In this longitudinal study, lateral cephalograms of 31 subjects with normal occlusion were taken biennially from ages 9-19 years. Cephalometric measurements were performed. Parameters for which the 10-year change did not exceed one standard deviation were defined as unchanged. The means and standard deviations for the measured parameters were determined for each age group. Results: No significant changes in growth were observed in the molar relationship, incisor overjet, incisor overbite, mandibular incisor extrusion, interincisor angle, lower incisor tip (B1) to A point-Pogonion (A-PO) plane, upper incisor tip (A1) to A-PO plane, B1 inclination to A-PO, A1 inclination to A-PO, B1 inclination to Frankfurt plane (FH), convexity, lower facial height, facial axis, maxillary depth, maxillary height, palatal plane to FH, cranial deflection, ramus Xi position, or porion location. Continual changes over the 10 years of growth were observed in the maxillary first molar distal position to pterygoid true vertical plane, facial depth, mandibular plane to FH, anterior cranial length, mandibular arc, and corpus length. Conclusions: Clinicians can apply the Korean norms at age 9 as determined in this study when using the Ricketts analysis. The patient's age at the beginning of treatment and their sex should be taken into consideration when drawing visual treatment objectives.

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy and reliability of measurements performed using two different software programs on digital models generated using two types of plaster model scanners (a laser scanner and a computed tomography [CT] scanner). Methods: Thirty plaster models were scanned with a 3Shape laser scanner and with a Flash CT scanner. Two examiners performed measurements on plaster models by using digital calipers and on digital models by using Ortho Analyzer (3Shape) and Digimodel^® (OrthoProof) software programs. Forty-two measurements, including tooth diameter, crown height, overjet, overbite, intercanine and intermolar distances, and sagittal relationship, were obtained. Results: Statistically significant differences were not found between the plaster and digital model measurements (ANOVA); however, some discrepancies were clinically relevant. Plaster and digital model measurements made using the two scanning methods showed high intraclass coefficient correlation values and acceptable 95% limits of agreement in the Bland-Altman analysis. The software used did not influence the accuracy of measurements. Conclusions: Digital models generated from plaster casts by using laser and CT scanning and measured using two different software programs are accurate, and the measurements are reliable. Therefore, both fabrication methods and software could be used interchangeably.

Patients with cleft lip and palate usually present midfacial depression and anterior cross-bite. This dentofacial deformity has been believed due to the undergrowth of maxilla and/or the collapse of premaxilla. But, in the case that the collapsed premaxilla exists only, the reconstruction of the premaxilla has to be required for the correction of that deformity. These cases show the surgical treatment of midfacial depression and anterior cross-bite in the cleft lip and palate. After the careful diagnosis for the collapse of premaxilla, the reconstruction using distraction osteogenesis was done successfully. As a result, the anterior overbite / overjet, and facial esthetics were improved remarkably, and the occlusion was also recovered to normal state. In conclusion, the premaxillary reconstruction by distraction osteogenesis in cleft lip and palate patients is a good treatment method based on the pathophysiology.

Objective: To evaluate the active-treatment effects of the Forsus fatigue resistant device (Forsus) during comprehensive correction of Class II malocclusion in growing patients. Methods: Fifty-four patients (mean age, $12.5{\pm}1.2$ years) with Class II division 1 malocclusion were consecutively treated with fixed app-liances in combination with Forsus. Lateral cephalograms were analyzed at the beginning of the fixed treatment (T1), Forsus insertion (T2), its removal (T3), and end of the comprehensive therapy (T4). Statistical comparisons were carried out by repeated-measures ANOVA with Tukey's post-hoc test (p < 0.05). Results: The overall therapeutic effects were mainly dentoalveolar and occurred mostly during the active treatment with Forsus (T2-T3, mean duration = $0.5{\pm}0.1$ years). The overjet and overbite decreased significantly (-3.5 and -1.5 mm, respectively) and the molar relationship improved by 4.3 mm. These changes were associated with significant retroclination of the maxillary incisors ($-3.1^{\circ}$), proclination and intrusion of the mandibular incisors ($+5.0^{\circ}$ and -1.5 mm, respectively), and mesialization of the mandibular molars (+2.0 mm). Conclusions: Forsus had mainly dentoalveolar effects and contributed largely to the overall therapeutic outcome.

Purpose: This study was performed to evaluate the incidence and degree of external apical root resorption of maxillary incisors after orthodontic treatment and to evaluate particular associated factors related to external apical root resorption. Materials and Methods: The records and maxillary incisor periapical radiographs of 181 patients were investigated. Crown and root lengths were measured and compared on the pre- and post-treatment periapical radiographs. Crown length was measured from the center of the incisal edge to the midpoint of the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ). Root length was measured from the CEJ midpoint to the root apex. A correction factor for the enlargement difference was used to calculate root resorption. Results: The periapical radiographs of 564 teeth showed that the average root resorption was $1.39{\pm}1.27$ ($8.24{\pm}7.22$%) and $1.69{\pm}1.14$ mm ($10.16{\pm}6.78%$) for the maxillary central and lateral incisors, respectively. The results showed that the dilacerated or pointed roots, maxillary premolar extraction cases, and treatment duration were highly significant factors for root resorption (p<0.001). Allergic condition was a significant factor at p<0.01. Age at the start of treatment, large overjet, and history of facial trauma were also factors significantly associated with root resorption (p<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in root resorption among the factors of gender, overbite, tongue-thrusting habit, types of malocclusion, and types of bracket. Conclusion: These results suggested that orthodontic treatment should be carefully performed in pre-treatment extraction patients who have pointed or dilacerated roots and need long treatment duration.

Purpose : A new method of lateral cephalometric analysis for midface, focusing on zygomatic bone, was created in this study, and measured in Korean adults. The purposes of this study are understanding about new approach for midfacial depression, especially zygomatic bone, and using to make adequate diagnosis and treatment plan. Materials and methods : In this study, esthetic Korean adults, 25 males and 25 females who were between $0^{\circ}$ and $4^{\circ}$ in ${\angle}ANB$, and between 62% and 70% in P/A facial height ratio, and had normal overbite and overjet, were used. Orbitale(Or) and Soft tissue orbitale(Or') were used for indicators of anteroposterior position of zygomatic area. And, mean value and standard deviation of linear and angular measurements, and ratio about each linear measurements, were obtained. then, standard deviation diagram - wiggle diagram - was made for visualization of results. Results : Mean values, standard deviations and ranges of 19 measurements were obtained, and among them, 5 linear measurements that had large standard deviation were excluded and the others were used for making standard deviation diagram. In standard deviation diagram, the following results were obtained. 1. If the measurements are located on more left side of mean-value-vertical -line, the potential of midfacial hypoplasia are stronger, especially zygomatic area. 2. If the measurements are located on more right side of mean-value-vertical-line, the potential of midfacial hypoplasia are decreased. Conclusion : This study presented a new method of lateral cephalometric analysis focusing on zygomatic bone in Korean adults. We expect that the results of this study can be used as parameter when clinicians make decisions about diagnosis and treatment plan for rehabilitation of esthetics and function. But, it is necessary to prove its usefulness, and to further evaluate the results.

Purpose: To investigate the effects of anterior guidance (AG) change on the working (WCP) and non-working condylar paths (NWCP), and lower incisor path (LIP) using a splint with flat (FAG) or steep AG (SAG). Materials and Methods: The samples consisted of six young adult women (mean age=$23.5{\pm}3.3$ years). Inclusion criteria were skeletal Class I and normodivergent pattern, normal overbite/overjet, minimal slide from retruded cuspal position to intercuspal position, no temporomandibular disorder signs and symptoms, mutually protected occlusion, and minimal tooth wear. After the values of natural AG (NAG) were obtained as a reference for each patient, two types of splints ($15^{\circ}$ flatter and steeper than NAG) were made. After insertion of the splints with FAG or SAG, the WCP, NWCP, and LIP were recorded five times for each patient using an ultrasonic AQR (SAM, Munich, Germany) and statistical analysis was subsequently performed. Result: NAG exhibited postero-superior movement in the WCP and did not show a noticeable immediate side shift (ISS) or difference between the eccentric (EP) and returning paths (RP) in the NWCP. FAG was associated with an irregular and excessive WCP, an increase in ISS, and a difference between EP and RP in the NWCP. SAG showed minimal WCP movement and a decrease in the extent of difference between EP and RP in the NWCP. LIP showed significant differences in EP and in RP (P<0.001, all; FAG
