The purpose of this study was to investigate the change of tooth mobility and bite force according to periodontal disease severity. Tooth mobility and biting force due to change of viscoelastic property of periodontium were influenced by inflammation of periodontal tissue. 30 patients participated in this study, the periodontal disease severity is evaluated with SBI and attachment loss. SBI and attachment loss were examined by periodontal probe. Tooth mobility was tested two times to each tooth using periotest (Siemens Co, Germany) and bite force was evaluated with MPM-3000 (Nihon Kohden Co, Japan). Statistical analysis was applied to correlation ($r^2$) and regression analysis. The obtained results were as follows : 1. As the attachment loss increased, tooth mobility increased with significance, and they had highly positive correlation ($r^2=0.68$) on entire dentition. 2. As the SBI increased, tooth mobility increased with significance, and they had positive correlation ($r^2=0.37$) on entire dentition. 3. As the attachment loss increased, bite force decreased with significance, and they had highly negative correlation ($r^2=0.42$) on maxillary anterior dentition but low negative correlation ($r^2=0.20$) on the other portion of dentition. 4. As the SBI increased, bite force decreased with significance, and they had highly negative correlation ($r^2=0.31$) on maxillary anterior dentition but low negative correlation ($r^2=0.16$) on the other portion of dentition. 5. As tooth mobility increased, bite force decreased with significance, and they had highly negative correlation ($r^2=0.32$) on maxillary anterior dentition but low negative correlation ($r^2=0.16$) on the other portion of dentition.

This study tests the significance of momentum and contrarian strategy which challenge the weak efficient market hypothesis (EMH). If momentum and contrarian strategy can make extra return above the market, this can be a significant critics to the weak EMH. By using Monte Carlo simulation we have found that many existing returature, which test the significance of momentum and contrarian strategy, have a significance distortion problem. We test the significance of momentum and contrarian strategy by using reality check test of White(2000) which solve the problem of data snooping bias. The results are following. When we use the KOSPI index as the benchmark portfolio, we can get the best strategy of momentum strategy in the case of mean return. But in the case of Sharp ratio which is the performance measure adjusting risk, we find that the best strategy in the momentum and contrarian strategy can not dominate the performance of benchmark portfolio. Therefore we argue that weak EMH can not be rejected because of superior performance of momentum and contrarian strategy when we consider risk.
