연구목적: 인류지질학적으로 동양인에게서 많이 발견되는 C-형 근관계를 가진 하악 제2대구치는 근관치료나 비외과적 재치료에 실패하는 경우 외과적 재치료 방법으로 의도적 재식술을 시행하게 되는데 그 성공률에 대한 보고가 없었다. 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 C-형 근관계를 가진 하악 제2대구치에 의도적 재식술을 시행한 환자의 기록을 후향적으로 조사하여 치료 결과에 따른 성공률을 확인할 뿐 아니라 치료전 존재하던 치근단 병소가 성공률에 영향을 미치는 바에 대하여 알아보는 것이다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 연구를 위해 2005년 1월부터 2007년 12월에 걸쳐 서울대학교치과병원 치과보존과에 내원하여 하악 제2대구치에 의도적 재식술을 받은 52명의 환자 기록을 조사하였으며 7개의 치아는 정기적인 내원검진 기록이 없어서 조사 대상에서 제외하였고 다른 6개의 치아는 C-형 근관계의 조건에 해당되지 않아 연구에서 제외하였다. 정기 내원후 시행한 임상 검사와 방사선 사진 기록을 후향적으로 검토하여 성공이나 불완전한 치유 또는 실패등의 치료 결과에 대하여 판단하였다. 결과: C-형 근관계를 가진 29개의 하악 제2대구치에 시행한 의도적 재식술의 성공률은 72.4%로 관찰되었으며 치료전 치근단 병소가 존재한 경우의 성공률은 치근단 병소가 없었던 경우와 유사한 것으로 확인되었다. 결론: 본 연구결과 C-형 근관계를 가진 하악 제2대구치의 근관치료가 실패한 경우 시행하게 되는 의도적 재식술은 술전 병소의 존재 유무에 상관없이 치근단 수술의 성공률과 유사한 결과를 얻을 수 있는 치료라고 사료된다.

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.
