Objective: To evaluate the effect of clear aligner treatment and differential sequence distalization of maxillary posterior teeth on anchorage loss in the upper incisors (U1s). Methods: This study used lateral cephalometries and digital models of 12 patients treated with 33% sequential distalization (group 1, mean age: 22.9 ± 0.7 years, five males, seven females) and 12 treated with 50% sequential distalization (group 2, mean age: 25.83 ± 0.5 years, three males, nine females) acquired before and after distalization of upper second premolars (U5) and upper first molars (U6) and upper second molars (U7). The amount of distalization was determined as 2.5 mm in both the groups. Independent Samples t test was used to compare normally distributed parameters. Mann-Whitney U and Wilcoxon tests were used to compare parameters that were not normally distributed. Results: In both groups, the posterior teeth significantly moved by tipping distally and the U1s were displaced anteriorly. Increase in maxillary posterior transverse width (P < 0.001) and distopalatal rotation were observed in U5, U6, and U7 after distalization. It was also observed that U1 was significantly more proclined (1.82°; P < 0.001) and protruded (0.62 mm; P < 0.001), and the overjet (0.45 mm; P < 0.001) increased more in group 1 than in group 2. Conclusions: After sequential distalization of maxillary posterior teeth, more anchorage loss was observed in the anterior region in group 1 than in group 2.

Posterior crossbites are abnormal buccal, or lingual relationship of a tooth or teeth of the maxilla, the mandible, or both when the teeth of the two arches are in occlusion and involve the molars and premolars. Posterior crossbites are classified as dental, muscular(functional), or skeletal. In an effort to avoid occlusal interferences caused by the inadequate arch width, the patient deviates the mandible laterally upon closure to achieve maximum intercuspation. This is described as functional posterior crossbite. Correction of functional posterior crossbites in the primary & early mixed dentition as early as possible after diagnosis has been recommended, because crossbites do not automatically improve with the eruption of the permanent teeth. Functional posterior crossbites, if left untreated, may have deleterious effects on the development and function of the TMJ. The diagnosis and management of three cases is presented. Each patient with functional posterior crossbites is treated using the bilateral maxillary expansion appliance.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the force mechanism of Multiloop Edgewise Arch Wire and the intensity and distribution of stresses with vertical and intermaxillary elastics. The obtained results were as follows. 1. When plain wires were inserted and vertical and intermaxillary elastics were used in the upper and lower arch, the stresses of the anterior and posterior ends of wires were observed greatly but the stresses of the premolar were very small. 2. When MEAW were inserted in upper and lower arch, the upper 1st and 2nd premolar and the lower 1st premolar were extruded greatly. 3. In the area of the upper 1st molar and the lower 2nd premolar and the lower 1st molar, any stresses were not observed. 4. The vertical elastic counteracted the intrusion force of the MEAW in the anterior teeth but could not affect on posterior teeth. Using with the Class II elastics, the distal tipping force and extrusion force were exerted in the upper anterior teeth and the intrusion forces of the lower anterior teeth were relieved. Using with the Class III elastics, the extrusion force were exerted in the upper and lower anterior teeth, the distal tipping force were increased in the lower posterior teeth. 5. The Class II elastic counteracted the anterior intrusion force of the MEAW and extruded and tipped mesially the lower 2nd molar. The intrusion force of the MEAW also could not overcome the extrusion force of the class II elastics. 6. When the Class III elastics were engaged, the upper 2nd molar was extruded in spite of the intrusion forces of the MEAW and the extrusion forces of the lower anterior teeth and distal tipping forces in the posterior teeth were observed.

Purpose: Single implants, of which screw loosening has been observed frequently, presents problems such as fixtures fractures, marginal bone loss, and inflammation of the soft tissue around the implant. However, the single implant is more conservative, cost effective, and predictable compared to the 3 unit bridge with respect to the long-term outcome. This study evaluated the survival rate as well as future methods aimed at increasing the survival rate in single implants in posterior teeth. Methods: Among the implants placed in the Dankook University Dental Hospital department of Oral & Maxillofacial surgery from January 2001 to June 2008, 599 implants placed in the maxillar and mandibular posterior were evaluated retrospectively. Survival rates were investigated according to implant location, cause of tooth loss, gender, age, general disease, fixture diameter and length, surface texture, implant type and shape, presence of bone graft, surgery stage, surgeons, bone quality and opposite teeth. Results: Out of 599 single implants in posterior teeth, 580 implants survived and the survival rate was 96.8%. The difference in survival rate was statistically significant according to the implant location. The survival rate was low (84.2%) in implants exhibiting a wide diameter (${\geq}5.1mm$) and the surface treated by the acid etching group demonstrated a significantly lower survival rate (91.1%). One stage surgical procedure, which implemented a relatively better bone quality survival rate (100%), was higher than the two stage surgical procedure (96.1%). The survival rate of type IV bone quality (75%) was significantly lower than the other bone quality. Conclusion: Single posterior teeth implant treatments should use an improved surface finishing fixture as well as careful and safe procedures when performing implant surgery in the maxilla premolar and molar regions since bone quality is poor.

The author had collected the full mouth stone model of 277 persons from 20 ages to 60 ages and studied the attrition pattern of posterior teeth paying attention to the teeth cusps on the stone model. All of the attrition patterns were classified by age, sex and analyzed. The results are followings : 1. Attrition patterns of posterior teeth were divided into 64 forms.(expept 3rd molar) 2. There was no significant difference between right & left. 3. Generally early attrition pattern of younger age and late attriction pattern of older age were more prominent in men being compared with sexual difference. 4. Being compared with age group, early attrition pattern showed decreasing tendency and late attrition pattern showed increasing tendency by aging.

This clinical report describes an orthodontic-prosthodontic interdisciplinary treatment for a patient with multiple missing teeth and unilateral scissors bite. A 47-year-old female presented with multiple missing posterior teeth, anterior large overjet, deep bite, and posterior scissors bite on the right premolar area. Periodontal therapy was performed and followed by orthodontic treatment. The maxillary anterior teeth were initially aligned, then two implants were placed for the left mandibular molars to increase occlusal vertical dimension. The scissors bite between the right maxillary and mandibular premolars were corrected using the miniscrews as an anchorage. Other implants were placed for the right maxillary and mandibular molars after the occlusal planes and occlusal relationship were harmonized. The patient adapted well to altered vertical dimension without any specific problems including peri-implant marginal bone loss. Interdisciplinary approach resolve the complex orthodontic-prosthodontic problems and concluded in successful results.
