Patients who have impacted tooth are found commonly in orthodontic treatment. Although it is difficult to find the cause of impacted teeth, the most common, causes are prolonged retention of the deciduous teeth, trauma, aberrant sequence of eruption, lack of space and deficiency of Vitamin D. Impacted teeth may lead to esthetic and functional problems and root resorption of adjacent teeth, so we should treat it as soon as possible. Commonly used treatment method is the following: After surgically uncovering of the impacted teeth, a bond of orthodontic appliance is established, and orthodontic traction is started with a removable or fixed appliance. We used the modified lingual arch with a soldered auxiliary appliance in lingual arch for traction of lower impacted teeth. The modified lingual arch could control the magnitude and direction of the applied force with one-arch treatment, and also could give continuous force to impacted tooth without patient patient cooperation. We achieved good results with the modified lingual arch.

In order to recover the esthetic of the missing anterior area, we must consider color, shape of a tooth and the functions of a prosthesis that is harmonized with the surrounding factors. When the tooth of a natural tooth is exposed, we face to challenge to restore them. several factors cause resorption of bones, in flammation, and gum trouble, and a defective prosthesis damages the aesthetics of the gingiva. There are two ways how to solve these problems. One can be done by periodontal surgery and the other can be done by prosthesis. Most patients want aesthetic restoration that is harmonized with their teeth and gingiva. So if prosthesis is fabricated to expose the root exposed, it is far from the patient's expectation.

백서에서 실험적 치아 이동시 bisphosphonate가 파골세포의 형성에 미치는 영향과 골 흡수 억제기전을 규명하고 독성유무를 알아보고자 하였다. 체중 260-350g의 웅성 백서 87마리를 정상군(장치비장착 + $0.9\%$ NaCl), 대조군(장치장착 + $0.9\%$ NaCl) 및 장치장착후 bisphosphonate 투여군(0.8 mg, 4 mg, 20 mg, 및 100 mg/kg) 으로 분류하였다. 상악 좌측 제1대구치를 근심으로 치아이동이 일어나도록 50-70g의 교정력을 가하고, 교정장치 장착후 1일, 3일 및 7일째에 혈청 acid phosphatase와 lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)의 활성도를 측정하고, 또한 제1 대구치를 포함한 상악골 일부에서 파골세포수 및 골흡수 정도를 조직학적으로 관찰하여 다음과 같은 성적을 얻었다. 1. Acid phosphatase 활성도는 장치후 1일째와 3일째에 대조군과 bisphosphonate 투여군에서 모두 정상군에 비해 2-3배 높았으나, 7일째에는 정상군과 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 2. LDH활성도는 bisphosphonate 4 mg과 20 mg/kg 투여군에서 전 실험기간에 걸쳐 증가된 양상을 보였으나 0.8 mg과 100 mg/kg 투여군에서는 유의한 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 3. 골흡수는 장치후 1일째에 대조군과 bisphosphonate투여군에서 모두 관찰되지 않았으나, 3일 이후에 나타나 7일째까지 지속되었다. Bisphosphonate 4, 20 및 100 mg/kg군에서의 골흡수정도는 3일째에는 대조군에 비해 미약하였으나 7일째에는 대조군과 유사하게 나타났다. 4. 파골세포는 1일째에 대조군이나 bisphosphonate투여군 모두에서 거의 관찰할 수 없었다. 3일째에 대조군에서는 파골세포가 다량 출현하였으나 bisphosphonate 투여군에서는 약물의 용량이 증가함에 따라 감소하여 나타났다. 이상의 결과로 실험적 치아이동시 파골세포의 형성억제가 bisphosphonate에 의한 골흡수 억제기전이 아님을 알 수 있었고, bisphosphonate는 투여량이 증가에 따른 뚜렷한 세포독성은 관찰되지 않았으며, 골흡수 억제효과를 지속시키기 위해서는 약물이 반복적으로 투여되어야 할 필요가 있음이 시사되었다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a novel bone grafting material using an autogeneous tooth (AutoBT) and provide the basis for its clinical application. The AutoBT contains organic and inorganic mineral components and is prepared from autogenous grafting material, thus eliminating the risk of immune reactions that may lead to its rejection. AutoBT can be used as bone material as is has both osteoinduction and osteoconduction activities at guided bone regeneration for implant placement and maxillary sinus graft. Methods: In a total of 63 patients, guided bone regeneration surgery was performed at the time of implant placement, and tissue samples were harvested at the time of the second surgery with the patient's consent. Results: There were no complications in guided bone regeneration using autogeneous tooth. Conclusion: We concluded that AutoBT underwent gradual resorption and was replaced by new bone of excellent quality via osteoinduction and osteoconduction.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical relevance of autogenous fresh demineralized tooth (Auto-FDT) prepared at chairside immediately after extraction for socket preservation. Teeth were processed to graft materials in block, chip, or powder types immediately after extraction. Extraction sockets were filled with these materials and dental implants were installed immediately or after a delay. A panoramic radiograph and a conebeam CT were taken. In two cases, tissue samples were taken for histologic examination. Vertical and horizontal maintenance of alveolar sockets showed some variance depending on the Auto-FDT and barrier membrane types used. Radiographs showed good bony healing. Histologic sections showed that it guided good new bone formation and resorption pattern of the Auto-FDT. This case series shows that Auto-FDT prepared at chairside could be a good material for the preservation of extraction sockets. This study will suggest the possibility of recycling autogenous tooth after immediate extraction.

Recently, soluble TNF receptor homolog osteoprotegerin(OPG) and its membrane-bound ligand osteoclast differentiation factor(ODF) were found to regulate osteoclast formation and function, and bone metabolism. It is now well established that ODF acts via RANK expressed on hematopoietic osteoclast precursor cells to facilitate their differentiation to osteoclasts, and OPG prevents the formation of osteoclasts by interfering the binding of ODF and RANK. Expression of OPG and ODF was believed to be closely related to the pathogenesis of bone resorption and destruction from osteoporosis, periodontal diseases, malignant bone tumor, and arthritis. The periodontal ligament fibroblasts (PDLF), located between the tooth and tooth socket, has been thought to play an important role in maintaining bone homeostasis of periodontal tissues. However, the exact mechanism by which bone formation and resorption are regulated by PDLF is not well understood. In this study we have prepared primary cultures of human PDLF from periodontium of malaligned tooth extracted due to orthodontic reason, and determined steady state or inflammatory signal-induced OPG and ODF expression using RT-PCR and western blot analysis. OPG and ODF mRNA and protein were expressed constitutively in the PDLF and these expression were slightly increased by osteotropic cytokine IL-1 ${\beta}$. Lipopolysaccharide-treated PDLF showed decrease in OPG mRNA and protein expression, and increase in ODF mRNA and protein expression. These results indicated that PDLF influence the osteoclastogenesis by OPG and ODF expression in the inflammatory situation as well as physiological condition, and thereby pathogenesis of periodontal alveolar bone destruction.

For patients with bimaxillary protrusion, significant retraction and intrusion of the anterior teeth are sometimes essential to improve the facial profile. However, severe root resorption of the maxillary incisors occasionally occurs after treatment because of various factors. For instance, it has been reported that approximation or invasion of the incisive canal by the anterior tooth roots during retraction may cause apical root damage. Thus, determination of the position of the maxillary incisors is key for orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning in such cases. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) may be useful for simulating the post-treatment position of the maxillary incisors and surrounding structures in order to ensure safe teeth movement. Here, we present a case of Class II malocclusion with bimaxillary protrusion, wherein apical root damage due to treatment was minimized by pretreatment evaluation of the anatomical structures and simulation of the maxillary central incisor movement using CBCT. Considerable retraction and intrusion of the maxillary incisors, which resulted in a significant improvement in the facial profile and smile, were achieved without severe root resorption. Our findings suggest that CBCT-based diagnosis and treatment simulation may facilitate safe and dynamic orthodontic tooth movement, particularly in patients requiring maximum anterior tooth retraction.

완전 탈구된 치아의 치료 목적은 치주인대 세포의 손상과 치수 조직의 감염에 의한 염증 반응을 예방하거나 최소화하는 것이다. 치주인대 세포의 생활력은 완전 탈구된 치아의 예후에 있어 중요한 요소인데 치주인대 세포가 생활력을 유지하는 경우 재식시 재부착을 하게 되어 최소한의 염증반응 후 신생 백악질로 회복되지만, 생활력을 상실하게 되면 심한 염증반응을 야기하게 되어 광범위한 치근 흡수와 유착이 나타나게 된다. 치근이 유착되면 특히 성장하는 어린이일 경우 치조돌기의 성장을 방해하여 저위교합을 유발하게 된다. 또한 광범위한 치근 흡수나 유착으로 인한 치아의 조기 상실은 치조골의 흡수와 인접치의 지속적인 이동을 야기하여 기능적, 심미적인 문제를 발생케 한다. 본 증례는 상악 우측 중절치의 완전 탈구 후 재식한 후 항생제 투여 및 장기간의 수산화 칼슘 적용을 통해 9년에 걸쳐 기능적, 심미적으로 양호한 결과를 얻었기에 이에 보고하는 바이다.
