중심위 안정접촉을 상실하고 잔존치들이 엇갈린 교합을 하고 있는 환자의 경우 의치의 하중시 다양한 움직임이 발생하게 된다. 의치의 움직임을 줄이기 위한 유지, 지지, 안정 요소의 보강을 위해서는 임플란트 식립이 필요하다. 하지만 본 증례에서는 환자의 고령과 수술에 대한 거부감 및 골소실을 고려하여 임플란트 식립하지 않고, 가철성 국소의치로 수복하였다. 중심위 안정접촉을 상실한 환자의 경우 수직, 수평 악간관계 모두 새로 설정해 주어야 한다. 이때 소수 잔존치 증례에서는 잔존치들로 저작하던 습관을 가지고 있어 수복을 위한 올바른 하악위를 설정하는 것이 중요하다. 본 증례에서는 Gothic arch tracing을 이용하여 환자의 안정적인 하악위를 설정하여 국소의치로 수복한 양호한 결과를 얻었기에 이를 보고하는 바이다.

교합면 치아우식 예방을 위한 치면열구전색제 도포시 열구내 유기물, 치태, 법랑질 잔사 등을 제거하여 전색제의 유지율을 증가시키고자 기계적 삭제 방법이 소개되었다. 기계적 삭제방법을 사용할 경우 산부식 방법만을 사용하였을 때와 비교하여 치면열구전색제의 열구 침투도 및 미세누출정도의 차이는 임상적인 측면에서 중요하다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 기계적 삭제방법(소와열구 삭제 후 산부식)과 산부식 방법을 시행한 후, 각각 unfilled sealant와 filled sealant를 처치하고 이들 치면열구전색제의 열구 침투도와 미세누출 정도를 측정하였다. 교정치료를 목적으로 발거된 사람의 소구치 60개를 실험재료로 사용하였으며 그중 30개는 산부식 처리하고 나머지 30개는 소와열구의 기계적 삭제와 산부식 처리를 시행한 후 각각의 방법에서 15개는 unfilled sealant로 나머지 15개는 filled sealant로 수복하였다. Thermocycling($5^{\circ}C$와 $55^{\circ}C$ 1200회)을 시행하고 5% methylene blue 용액에 24시간 보관하였다가 각각의 치아를 근심소와와 원심소와에서 협설 방향으로 절단하여 120개의 절단면을 얻었다. 각 절단면을 Measurescope으로 관찰한 결과, 기계적 삭제 방법은 산부식만을 시행한 경우에 비하여 unfilled sealant와 filled sealant 모두 열구 침투도를 증가시켰다(P < 0.05). 기계적 삭제 방법을 사용한 경우 산부식 방법만을 사용하고 unfilled sealant로 수복한 경우에 비하여 미세누출이 적었고(P < 0.05), 산부식 방법만을 사용하고 filled sealant로 수복한 경우와는 미세누출에 차이가 없었다. Unfilled sealant와 filled sealant는 기계적 삭제 방법을 사용한 경우와 산부식 방법만을 사용한 경우 모두 열구 침투도나 미세누출에 있어서 유의한 차이가 없었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 치면열구전색제 도포 시 열구 침투도가 우수하고 미세누출이 적은 기계적 삭제 방법과 물리적 성질이 우수한 filled sealant의 사용이 바람직하다고 생각된다. 그러나 미세누출에 있어 교합력을 고려한 실험이나 장기간의 임상실험이 필요할 것이다.

To study the effect of dentin permeability on a tooth with wear from tooth brushing after application of desensitizing agent, extracted teeth free from caries were chosen. Coronal dentin discs with thickness of 1mm were prepared. Using the split chamber device developed by Pashely, hydraulic conductance, scanning electron microscope images(SEM) and atomic force microscope images(AFM) were compared and contrasted before and immediately after the application of desensitizing agent and after equivalent tooth brushing of 1 week, 2 weeks, and 6 weeks. Four commercially available desensitizing agents were used in this study ; they were Gluma, Seal & Protect, All-Bond 2 and MS Coat. The results of this study are as follows. 1. On all specimens, the hydraulic conductance decreased after the application of tooth desensitizing agent. 2. Except the specimens treated with MS Coat, the remaining specimens had an increase in dentin permeability after tooth brushing for 1 and 2 weeks but a decrease after 6 weeks. 3. The specimens treated with MS Coat had statistically significant increase in the dentin permeability regardless with the duration of tooth brushing. 4. On examination of SEM and AFM, the dentinal tubule diameter had decreased after treatment of desensitizing agents. The specimens other than those treated with MS Coat, smear layers were noted after tooth brushing. It is not always consistant but the hydraulic conductance correlated with the images from SEM and AFM.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the degree of marginal leakage that is made by wet bonding to dentin and dissolution of dentinal collagen layer in vivo and in vitro. Class V cavities were prepared to 32 cat's canine teeth and they were randomly assigned into the following 4 groups : Group 1 (not acid conditioned) ; Group 2 (acid-conditioned and blot-dried) ; Group 3 (acid-conditioned and air-dried for 30 seconds) ; Group 4 (acid-conditioned and retreated with 10% NaOCl solution). The acetone-based primer and bonding agent of All Bond 2(Bisco Inc., U.S.A.) and composite resin(Z-100, 3M. Dent. Prod., U.S.A.) were then applied. The resin collar and cap attached to each specimen and 50% silver nitrate solution was placed inside the resin cap for 3 hours. After the canine tooth was resected in level of cervical third, specimens were highly polished and observed the degree of the dye penetration on incisal and gingival margins. The results were as follows ; 1. There was no significant difference of marginal leakage in all the groups between in vivo and in vitro. 2. In vivo, the degree of leakage on the gingival margin showed the lowerest in group 4 and followed by group 2, 3 and group 1 with ascending order. However, there was no statistical difference among all the groups(p>0.05). 3. In vitro, the degree of leakage on the gingival margin showed the lowerest in group 2 and followed by group 4, 3 and group 1 with ascending order. However, there was no significant difference among the experimental groups(p>0.05). 4. The marginal leakage of the incisal margin in vitro was significantly higher in group 1 than the remaining groups(p<0.05).

In this study, effects of incision of retrodiscal tissue and unilateral occlusal reduction on temporomandibular joint of rabbit were investigated. Twenty-seven adult New Zealand White Rabbits, weighing over 3.5kg, were utilized in this study. Temporomandibular joint surgery was performed in left temporomandibular joint of 24 rabbits to displace disc anteriorly through incising the retrodiscal tissue 1-2mm posterior to the disc. They were divided into two groups : twelve were left untreated after surgery, occlusal reduction was performed on left posterior teeth every 2 weeks in the other twelve rabbits, The remaining three served as the control group. The sample were sacrificed by 8, 12, and 16 weeks after surgery. Histologic examinations were performed after sacrificing them. The results were as follows : 1. Histologic findings which were manifested by flat articular fossa, broad articular surface, generalized recession of articular cartilage and sclerosis of subchondral bone were observed. These findings were similar to internal derangement. 2. In the rabbits untreated after surgery, thin cartilagenous layer and necrotic tissue were observed in 8 weeks group, calcifying cartilagenous layer was observed in 12 weeks group, and cartilagenous layer on anterior portion was observed in 16 weeks group. So, it showed gradual healing pattern into the normal tissue except displaced disc. 3. Occlusal trauma after surgery resulted in generalized recession of upper and lower articular surface. Necrosis and vertical split on condylar process of mandible were observed in 8 weeks group. Osteoclasts, exposure of subchondral bone due to erosion on upper and lower articular surface, and degenerative changes on retrodiscal tissue were observed in 16 weeks group. So, it showed continuous prowess pattern of osteoarthrosis.

PURPOSE. Patient-reported outcomes are increasingly commonly used as a method of evaluating treatments. This cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate implant treatment from the perspective of patient-reported outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Subjects were 804 patients who visited the Department of Oral Implantology at Osaka Dental University. The participants were categorized into a pre-implant group and a post-implant group. They were further categorized into five subgroups based on the number of occlusal supports provided by the remaining teeth according to the Eichner classification. The participants answered a basic questionnaire and the General Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI) questionnaire, an oral health-related quality of life (QOL) scale. GOHAI scores were compared according to the number of occlusal supports within each group and between the two groups. RESULTS. The results revealed a significant difference in terms of the number of occlusal supports within the pre-implant group; GOHAI scores decreased as the number of occlusal supports decreased (P<.001). However, no significant difference was observed in GOHAI scores in terms of the number of occlusal supports in the post-implant group (P>.05). GOHAI scores significantly improved in both pre- and post-implant groups in all occlusal support subgroups (P<.001). CONCLUSION. GOHAI scores decrease as occlusal support is lost. However, implant treatment performed in areas of loss improves the GOHAI score when occlusal support is restored.

Korea has been running the community oral health program for the elderly, including topical fluoride application and scaling. The aim of this study was to compare the subjective and objective oral health status of 345 participants according to the number of participants in the program and of 37 participants before and after the 5-year program. The survey consisted of an interview questionnaire and oral examinations. Analysis of variance was used to compare the variables of the 345 participants according to the numbers of participants. Paired t-test was used to compare the oral health statuses before and after the 5-year program in 37 subjects. There was no difference in subjective oral health status according to the number of participants in the oral health program in the elderly, including subjective health status, subjective oral health status, satisfaction with oral health, concern about oral health, need of dental treatment, oral pain, tooth sensitivity, subjective periodontal health, and subjective symptoms of periodontitis. The community periodontal index (CPI) of the 1 time participants was significantly higher than that of 3 times, 4 times or 5 times participants in the upper center, lower left, lower center, and lower right areas. There was a significant improvement in CPI from $2.59{\pm}1.14$ to $1.41{\pm}1.54$ (p<0.001) and positive oral behavioral change (daily tooth brushing frequency from $2.27{\pm}0.73$ to $2.54{\pm}0.90$) before and 5 years after the program. However, the program did not prevent tooth loss as the numbers of the remaining teeth significantly reduced from $23.77{\pm}1.84$ to $21.95{\pm}2.03$ over 5 years. We showed that running the community oral health program for the elderly for more than three years might have positive effects on the periodontal health of participants.

9세 레녹스-가스토 증후군을 앓고 있는 여아가 정기검진을 위해 연세대학교 치과대학병원 소아치과에 내원하였으며 구강 내 임상 검사 시 유견치 및 제1유구치의 동요도가 관찰되었다. 본과 내원 두 달 전 폐렴으로 인한 입원 및 치아로 추정되는 물질의 흡인 병력이 있었으며 치과에 내원했을 당시 구강 내에서 상악 좌측 제1유구치가 관찰되지 않았다. 해당 치아가 흡인되어 폐렴을 유발했을 가능성이 높은 것으로 판단하고 동요도가 있는 나머지 유치의 발치를 시행하였다. 인후 반사가 제한되어 흡인 위험성이 높은 장애 환자들에서는 치과 치료 상황 외에도 구강 내 이물질의 흡인이 일어날 수 있으므로 동요도가 있는 유치나 잘 맞지 않는 보철물 등을 예방적으로 제거하는 것이 흡인의 위험성을 줄일 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.
