One fifth dilution of formocresol is usually used for pulpotomy of the primary teeth and emergency pulpotomy of the permanent teeth. However the use of formaldehyde has been subjected to criticism because it may be absorbed into the blood stream and become distributed systemically, it nay also alter the pulp tissue rendering it immunologically active, and have carcinogenic potential. Recently Depulpin$^{\circledR}$(VoCo., Germany) gains popularity as a devitalizing agent during root canal therapy in spite of high concentration of 49 % paraformaldehyde because it facilitate devitalization of pulp and make root canal therapy easier But there have been not enough publications about the reaction of pulp and periapical tissue caused by Depulpin. This study was performed to evaluate the histological changes in pulp and periapical tissue of rats after pulpotomy using formocresol and Depulpin and to elucidate the toxic effects of these agents. Thirty six Sprague-Dawley rats were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of ketamine Maxillary first molar teeth were used for pulpotomy with formocresol and Depulpin. Rats were sacrificed after 2 days, 4 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks and 4 weeks respectively. Specimens were histologically observed by light microscope changes in pulp and periapical tissue. The obtained results were as follows. 1. Formocresol group A zone of fixed tissue. in which odontoblasts could clearly be defined, was present directly underneath the pulpotomy dressing in almost all teeth of this group. This was followed by an area of necrotic tissue which resembled dried out fibrous tissue with no cellular detail except some pyknotic nuclei. In the specimens of after 2 days, 4 days, 1 week, 2 weeks in which vital tissue was present, it was separated from the fibrous area by a zone of inflammation. In the specimens of after 3 weeks and after 4 weeks, inflammatory infiltrate was in the periodontal ligament adjacent to the apical foramina of the teeth. 2. Depulpin$^{\circledR}$ group The area of necrotic tissue which had no cells and fibers, was present adjacent to the dressing. This was followed by dried out fibrous tissue with no cellular details except some pyknotic nuclei, A short stump of vital pulp with odontoblasts was present at the end of the canal after 2 days. Inflammatory infiltrate was in the periodontal ligament after 4 days and after 1week. Severe root resolution and necrosis of periapical tissue opposite the root resorption site were defined after 2 weeks and after 3 weeks. Periapical lesion which consist of necrotic tissue surrounded by a fibrous connective wall, was found after 4 weeks. The results indicated that Depulpin can cause more adverse reaction to the dental pulp and periapical tissue than formocresol, and further studies are needed for its clinical use with safety.

최근의 근관치료학 분야에서 외과적 재치료는 수술현미경, 초음파기구, 미세수술기구 등의 도입으로 많은 변화가 있어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 전통적인 치근단 수술법과 비교하여 미세 치근단 수술의 주요 술식을 알아보고 이미 출간된 논문에 근거하여 미세 치근단 수술의 성공과 실패 그리고 성공과 실패에 영향을 미치는 요소들을 고찰하고자 하였다. 수술현미경은 수술부위를 밝게 확대해서 봄으로써 치근단 부위의 미세한 형태를 조명할 수 있게 되었으며 이는 술식의 성공을 위해서 필수적인 요소가 되었다. 초음파 기구 또한 치근단 역충전을 위한 정확한 와동형성을 가능하게 해 주었다. 따라서 미세 치근단 수술은 기존방식의 문제점이었던 많은 골삭제, 경사진 치근절제, 부정확한 역충전 와동 형성, 치근단 미세구조 관찰의 어려움 등을 극복함으로써 술식이 더욱 정확해지고, 성공가능성이 더 높아졌다고 볼 수 있다. 미세 치근단 수술에 영향을 미치는 요소에는 다양한 요인들이 존재할 수 있으나 전통방식의 치근단 수술보다 술식이 표준화 됨으로써 술식에 의한 영향을 줄일 수 있다. 환자와 치아에 관계되는 요소 중에서는 치주질환의 이환 여부와 치아위치(tooth position)가 예후에 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있으나 이에 대한 연구는 아직까지 그 수가 부족한 상태로 앞으로 검증수준 (evidence level)이 높은 Randomized clinical trial 혹은 전향적 코호트 연구가 많이 이루어져야 할 것이다.

Objectives : This study was performed to evaluate the effects of root of Cibotii rhizoma(CR) ethanol extract on the tissue and neuronal damage of the spinal cord injury(SCI). Methods : SCI was induced by mechanical contusion following laminectomy of 10th thoracic vertebra in Sprague-Dawley rats. CR was orally given once a day for 7 days after SCI. Tissue damage and nerve fiber degeneration were examined with cresyl violet and luxol fast blue(LFS) histochemistry. HSP72(as neuronal damage marker), MAP2(as nerve fiber degeneration marker), c-Fos(immediate early gene), and Bax(pro-apoptotic molecule) expressions were examined using immuno-histochemistry. Individual immuno-positive cells expressing HSP72, MAP2, c-Fos and Bax were observed on the damaged level and the upper thoracic and lower lumbar spinal segments. Results : 1. CR reduced degeneration of nerve fibers and motor neuron shrinkage in the ventral horn of the lower lumbar spinal segment, but generally it did not seem to ameliorate the tissue injury following SCI. 2. CR reduced demyelination in the ventral and lateral funiculus of the lower lumbar spinal segment. 3. CR reduced HSP72 expression on the neurons in the peri-central canal gray matter adjacent to the damaged region. 4. CR strengthened MAP2 expression on the motor neurons in the ventral horn and on nerve fibers in the lateral funiculus of the lower lumbar spinal segment. 5. CR reduced c-Fos positive cells in the peri-lesion and the dorsal horn of the damaged level and in the ventral horn of the lower lumbar spinal segment. 6. CR reduced Bax positive cells in the peri-lesion and the dorsal horn of the damaged level and in the ventral horn of the lower lumbar spinal segment. Conclusions : These results suggest that CR plays an inhibitory role against secondary neuronal damage and nerve fiber degeneration. following SCI.

치내치(dens invaginatus)는 형태분화기에 비정상적인 치아발생이 원인으로 경조직이 석회화되기 전에 법랑질 상피가 함입되어 생기는 드문 치아 기형이다. 치내치의 발생 빈도는 0.04-10 %이고 대부분이 상악에서 발생하며 특히 상악측절치에서의 빈도가 높고 하악에서는 드물게 발생한다고 보고되었다. 치내치는 우상치나 왜소치, 쌍생치, 과잉치, 상아질 형성부전증과 같은 형태 이상과 연관되어서 나타나는 경우도 있다. 치내치는 함입된 정도에 따라 3가지로 분류할 수 있고 다양한 해부학적 변이를 보이며, 이러한 기형은 미생물의 침입을 용이하게 하므로 치아우식증과 치수감염 및 괴사의 위험성을 높인다. 치수조직에 문제가 생긴 경우 근관의 복잡한 해부학적 형태 때문에 근관치료가 매우 어려우므로 조기에 진단하여 치료하는 것이 중요하다. 본 증례들은 하악 중절치에 드물게 발생하는 치내치를 가진 환아에 대한 것으로 하악 중절치에서의 치내치 유병율과 치료에 대한 고찰을 하였기에 이를 보고하는 바이다.

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.
