Purpose: The aim of this study was to radiographically and clinically compare the effect of extracellular matrix (ECM) membranes on dimensional alterations following a ridge preservation procedure. Methods: One of 2 different ECM membranes was applied during a ridge preservation procedure. A widely used ECM membrane (WEM; Bio-Gide, Geistlich Biomaterials, Wolhusen, Switzerland) was applied in the treatment group and a newly developed ECM membrane (NEM; Lyso-Gide, Oscotec Inc., Seongnam, Korea) was applied in the control group. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans and alginate impressions were obtained 1 week and 6 months after the ridge preservation procedure. Results were analyzed using the independent t-test and the nonparametric Mann-Whitney U test. Results: There were no significant differences between the ECM membranes in the changes in the dimension, width, and height of the extraction socket or the quantity of bone tissue. Conclusions: The NEM showed comparable clinical and radiographic results to the WEM following the ridge preservation procedure.

Purpose: To evaluate the effects of intra-alveolar socket grafting, subepithelial connective tissue grafts, and individualized abutments on peri-implant hard and soft tissue outcomes following immediate implant placement. Methods: This randomized experimental study employed 5 mongrel dogs, with 4 sites per dog (total of 20 sites). The mesial roots of P3 and P4 were extracted in each hemimandible and immediate dental implants were placed. Each site was randomly assigned to 1 of 4 different treatment groups: standardized healing abutment (control group), alloplastic bone substitute material (BSS) + standardized healing abutment (SA group), BSS + individualized healing abutment (IA group), and BSS + individualized healing abutment + a subepithelial connective tissue graft (IAG group). Clinical, histological, and profilometric analyses were performed. The intergroup differences were calculated using the Bonferroni test, setting statistical significance at P<0.05. Results: Clinically, the control and SA groups demonstrated a coronal shift in the buccal height of the mucosa ($0.88{\pm}0.48mm$ and $0.37{\pm}1.1mm$, respectively). The IA and IAG groups exhibited an apical shift of the mucosa ($-0.7{\pm}1.15mm$ and $-1.1{\pm}0.96mm$, respectively). Histologically, the SA and control groups demonstrated marginal mucosa heights of $4.1{\pm}0.28mm$ and $4.0{\pm}0.53mm$ relative to the implant shoulder, respectively. The IA and IAG groups, in contrast, only showed a height of 2.6mm. In addition, the height of the mucosa in relation to the most coronal buccal bone crest or bone substitute particles was not significantly different among the groups. Volumetrically, the IA group ($-0.73{\pm}0.46mm$) lost less volume on the buccal side than the control ($-0.93{\pm}0.44mm$), SA ($-0.97{\pm}0.73mm$), and IAG ($-0.88{\pm}0.45mm$) groups. Conclusions: The control group demonstrated the most favorable change of height of the margo mucosae and the largest dimensions of the peri-implant soft tissues. However, the addition of a bone substitute material and an individualized healing abutment resulted in slightly better preservation of the peri-implant soft tissue contour.

Background: Tooth extraction commonly leads to loss of residual alveolar ridge, thus compromising the room available for the implant placement. To combat the post-extraction alveolar loss, alveolar ridge preservation is practiced, with the advent of the biomaterial available. The purpose of this study was to assess the efficiency of calcium phosphosilicate biomaterial in alveolar ridge preservation. Twenty patients indicated for extraction were selected followed by socket grafting using calcium phosphosilicate. Implant placement was done 6 months postoperatively during which a core was harvested from the preserved sockets. Clinico-radiographic measurements of hard and soft tissues were taken at baseline and 6 months post-grafting. Results: There were no significant changes in the radiographic and soft tissue parameters while significant changes in hard tissue parameters with 1.9 mm (p = 0.013) gain in mid-buccal aspect and 1.1 mm (p = 0.019) loss in horizontal bone width were observed. The histomorphometric evaluation depicted the vital bone volume of 54.5 ± 16.76%, non-mineralized tissue 43.50 ± 15.80%, and residual material 2.00 ± 3.37%. Conclusion: The implants placed in these preserved ridges presented 100% success rate with acceptable stability after a 1-year follow-up, concluding calcium phosphosilicate is a predictable biomaterial in alveolar ridge preservation.

상악 전치부 임플란트 수복의 성공에 있어서 심미적인 요소는 매우 중요한 부분입니다. 하지만 심미적인 결과를 얻는 것은 쉬운 일이 아니며 특히 치주염으로 인해 치조골 소실이 심하게 발생한 경우라면 더욱 그러합니다. 상악 전치부의 경우, 발치 직후부터 시작되는 치주 조직의 위축이 심미적 수복을 방해하므로 이를 최소화하기 위해 발치 즉시 임플란트를 시행하기도 합니다. 하지만 치조골 소실이 심한 경우 발치 즉시 식립은 심미적 실패를 가져올 가능성이 있고, 이런 결과는 돌이킬 수 없는 문제를 야기합니다. 그래서 치조제 보존술(Alveolar ridge preservation)을 시행하고 이후에 임플란트를 식립하는 방법으로 접근하기도 합니다. 2019년 JCP에 발치 후 임플란트 식립 시기와 발치와 처치에 대한 유럽치주학회의 consensus가 수록되어 있는데 여기서도 '심미적으로 중요한 부위에서 순측 치조골의 소실이 심하게 발생한 경우 치조제 보존술을 고려해야 한다고 언급하고 있습니다. 치조제 보존술을 하게 되면 primary closure가 어렵기 때문에 open membrane technique으로 이차치유를 유도하거나 FGG, CT graft를 시행하게 됩니다. 하지만 이차 치유 과정은 골재생에 부정적인 영향을 줄 수 있고, 연조직 이식은 환자와 술자에게 부담이 될 수 있습니다. 반면 치조골 결손이 심한 발치와에 있는 육아 조직(Granulation tissue)을 이용하게 되면 연조직 이식 없이도 primary closure를 얻을 수 있습니다. 또한 육아 조직에 조직 재생에 도움이 될 수 있는 줄기세포가 함유되어 있다는 연구들이 있습니다. 이를 근거로 치조골 및 연조직 결손이 심한 상악 전치부 치아를 육아 조직을 이용한 치조제 보존술을 통해 임플란트 수복을 시행하였습니다. 결손이 심한 발치와임에도 불구하고 비교적 심미적인 임플란트 수복 결과를 얻을 수 있었습니다.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of surface modification on the fibrovascular ingrowth into porous polyethylene (PE) spheres ($Medpor^{(R)}$), which are used as an anophthalmic socket implant material. To make the inert, hydrophobic PE surface hydrophilic, nonporous PE film and porous PE spheres were subjected to plasma treatment and in situ acrylic acid (AA) grafting followed by the immobilization of arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) peptide. The surface-modified PE was evaluated by performing surface analyses and tested for fibroblast adhesion and proliferation in vitro. In addition, the porous PE implants were inserted for up to 3 weeks in the abdominal area of rabbits and, after their retrieval, the level of fibrovascular ingrowth within the implants was assessed in vivo. As compared to the unmodified PE control, a significant increase in the hydrophilicity of both the AA-grafted (PE-g-PAA) and RGD-immobilized PE (PE-g-RGD) was observed by the measurement of the water contact angle. The cell adhesion at 72 h was most notable in the PE-g-RGD, followed by the PE-g-PAA and PE control. There was no significant difference between the two modified surfaces. When the cross-sectional area of tissue ingrowth in vivo was evaluated, the area of fibrovascularization was the largest with PE-g-RGD. The results of immunostaining of CD31, which is indicative of the degree of vascularization, showed that the RGD-immobilized surface could elicit more widespread fibrovascularization within the porous PE implants. This work demonstrates that the present surface modifications, viz. hydrophilic AA grafting and RGD peptide immobilization, can be very effective in inducing fibrovascular ingrowth into porous PE implants.

The use of autogenous tooth bone graft material has been commercialized since 2008. Autogenous tooth bone grafts always require that the tooth of the patient be extracted, and thus, the use of graft material are limited in many cases. For solution of limitation in quantity and concurrent use of autogenous tooth bone graft material, the grafting of familial teeth has been suggested. It has the following advantages: the teeth of family members are used as bone graft materials, the genetic composition is identical, and potential genetic and infectious risks can be minimized. Because the teeth of family members are used, a good tissue affinity is obtained, and thus, superior bone generation rates compared to those observed for allogenic or xenogenic bones can be anticipated. We used familial tooth bone-graft materials for alveolar ridge augmentation, socket preservation, and maxillary sinus graft in some cases. In most cases, the impacted third molars of their children were prepared as bone graft material and were used for surgery. In one case, the impacted third molar from the patient's brother was used as bone graft material. We obtained satisfactory result and these cases are reported herein.

교정적 정출술(Forced orthodontic eruption, FOE)은 각화 치은과 치조골량을 증가시키는 비침습적인 치료 방법이다. 정출력에 의해 치아가 정출되면 치은 섬유와 치주 인대가 신장되고 조골 세포의 유도가 촉진되어 새로운 골형성이 일어나게 된다. 또한 치은 변연이 치관 방향으로 이동되면서 부착 치은의 폭경이 증가된다. 반면, 점막 치은 경계는 일정하게 유지가 된다. 이러한 치료 효과들로 인해 교정적 정출술은 implant site development를 위해 사용될 수 있다. 본 증례 보고에서는 외상으로 인한 치관 파절로 수복이 불가능한 상악 전치부를 교정적 정출술로 연조직 증대를 이룬 후 치조골 이식술(block bone grafting)과 임플란트 식립을 통해 심미적으로 수복한 증례를 통해 교정적 정출술의 효과를 기술하고자 한다.

For Longevity of implant, considerations of biomechanical and microbiological aspects must be done. Recently, due to the remarkable development of bone grafting procedure. Implant has been implanted into the more favorable sites but peri-implantitis resulted from periodontal bacteria may obscure the long-term prognosis. Although many different modalities have been introduced to treat the failed implant. Implant's surface and irreversible bony destruction around the implant prevents good result. After Er,Cr:YSGG (waterlase) laser using the wave-length of 2780nm has been introduced to dental field, good results have been reported. Because waterlase uses the hydrokinetic force of water. It is excellent device to detoxify the implant surface mechanically without the heat generation and damage to the implant surface. We designed to evaluate waterlase effect on the peri-implantitis has been occurred after implantation. Four beagle dogs were involved. We have made four premolar extraction in each right and left side of the lower jaw and placed two implants in the anterior of the jaw as a control and six implant were placed posterior in each socket after extraction immediately as an experimental group. We tied floss-silk in each implant to make peri-implantitis intentionally. After three months, we explored peri-implant sites on each experimental fixtures. Using waterlase laser irradiation was performed on that implantitis sites under 3W, air 30% and water 20% intensity for 2 minutes. In control group, we repositioned the flap to cover the exposed fixture without any supportive care. Three months later, we sacrificed experimental animals and extracted and preparated bone blocks with Donath and Breuner (982), Donath (988)'s methods and examined under microscope. We have obtained good re-osseointegration around fixtures after treating with waterlaser irradiation. But it was shown fibroosseointegration in the control group.

There are many reports of the surgical management for the craniofacial abnormalities arising from the irradiation of the head and face for treatment of childhood cancers. Since the mordern combined-modality theraphy for childhood cancers began in the late 1960s and the early 1970s, recent reports have described the occular, dental and maxillo-facial abnormalities after irradiation in long-term survivors of cancers of the head and face. The resultant deformities may be known to be difficult to reconstruct with surgical techniques. This paper describes the late reconstructive surgery for the unilateral orbital and malar hypoplasia after eyeball enucleation and irradiation during childhood to correct the facial asymmetry and expand the contracted orbital socket into the functional dimension for the retaining eyeball prosthesis with spherical implant. We reports the satisfactory preliminary results from the midfacial osteotomy through the supero-lateral orbital rim and malar bone and the antero-lateral repositioning with the autogenous bone grafting in 26 year-old female patient who will be planned to make the new eyeball prosthesis by the department of ophthalmology.
