The dentigerous cyst originates through alteration of the reduced enamel epithelium after amelogenesis is completed, with accumulation of fluid between the layers of the enamel epithelium or between this epithelium and the tooth crown. It is always associated with unerupted teeth. There are two methods of treament which are generally accepted. One is the enucleation of the cystic sac in its entirety, the other is the Partch operation, or the marsupialization, by which the cyst is uncovered or "deroofed" and the cystic lining made continuous with the oral avity or surrounding structures. The present case report showed that in instance of dentigerous cyst & odontogenic keratocyst surgical enucleation followed by careful excision of all cyst wall was successfully carried out and recovery and healing were rapid and uncomplicated.

Dentigerous cyst is an odontogenic cyst which occurs in unerupted tooth crown. After the crown formation, enamel epithelium remnants surrounded continuously proliferates and it forms effusionfluid cyst and expands due to increased internal osmotic pressure. Treatments of cysts are mainly enucleation, marsupialization and de-compression. When deciding the way of treatment, the age of a patient, the anatomical circumstances, the region of lesion and the size of cyst should be considered. Marsupialization is that some parts of internal cystic wall would be converted into oral mucosa if the cyst is large size and is concerned about neighboring anatomic structure. It can be accompanied by enucleation later and eruption of related tooth can be possible. If there is a limitation of spontaneous tooth eruption, eruption of tooth can be induced by orthodontic apparatus. There were 3 patients had dentigerous cyst and underwent marsupialization, their impacted teeth had preserved and had induced eruption, all showing satisfactory results.

The prevalence of intrabony defects in patients with advanced periodontitis stages III and IV is high. These patients usually need both periodontal treatment and orthodontic therapy, including tooth movement through bone defects, to improve masticatory function, aesthetics, and overall quality of life. Clinical practice guidelines recommend periodontal regenerative surgical interventions to resolve these defects and propose initiating orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) once periodontal therapy goals have been met. Surgical interventions using various regenerative technologies like barrier membranes and enamel matrix proteins, combined or not with bone replacement grafts, have proven effective in regenerating lost periodontal tissues. However, the combination of periodontal and orthodontic treatments requires consideration of how periodontal regenerative therapies influence OTM. Studies suggest that regenerated bone may differ in density, composition, vascularity, and cellular activity, potentially affecting the speed and efficiency of OTM, and potential root resorption of moved teeth. Understanding the sequence and timing of implementing OTM after regenerative periodontal interventions is crucial due to their interlinked processes of bone resorption and formation. This narrative review aims to uncover scientific evidence regarding these combined treatments, examining the impacts of different regenerative technologies on OTM and delineating their advantages, limitations, and best practices.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of different etching time on the shear bond strength and adaptibility of composite to enamel and dentin when used one-bottle adhesive Prime & Bond$^{TM}$ 2.0. The proximal and occlusal surfaces of 88 extracted human molars were ground to expose enamel(n=44) and dentin (=44) using diamond wheel saw. Teeth were randomly assigned to four test groups(n=11) and received the following treatments : Control group were conditioned with 36% phosphoric acid for 20 sec. according to the manufacturer's directions. Experimental 10 sec. group, 30 sec. group and 60 sec. group were conditioned with 36% phosphoric acid for 10 sec., 30 sec. and 60 sec., respectively. Teeth were rinsed and dried for 2 sec. Prime & Bond$^{TM}$ 2.0 were applied according to the manufacturer's directions and Spectrum$^{TM}$ TPH composite resins were bonded to enamel and dentin surfaces. All specimens were stored in distilled water for 24 hours. Eighty specimens were sheared in a Universal Testing Machine with a crosshead speed of 5mm/minute. One way ANOVA and LSD test were used for statistical analysis of the data. Failure modes of all specimens after shear bond strength test were examined and listed. Also, representive postfracture modes and eight specimens were examined under scanning electron microscope. The results of this study were as follows: 1. The shear bond strength to enamel was the highest value in 30 sec. group (20.68${\pm}$8.54MPa) and the lowest value in 10 sec. group (14.92${\pm}$6.07MPa), so there was significant difference of shear bond strength between two groups (p<0.05). But there was no significant difference among other groups (p>0.05). With longer etching time to enamel from 10 sec. to 30 sec., higher the shear bond strength was obtained, but the shear bond strength was decreased at 60 sec. etching time. 2. The shear bond strength to dentin was the highest value in control group (13.08${\pm}$6.25MPa) and the lowest value in 60 sec. group (9.47${\pm}$3.35MPa), but there was no significant difference among the all groups (p>0.05). The eching time over 20 sec. decreased the shear bond strength to dentin. 3. In SEM observation, the enamel and resin interfaces were showed close adaptation with no relation to etching time of enamel. And the dentin and resin interfaces were showed close adaptation at 20 sec. and 30 sec. etching time, but showed some gaps at 10 sec. and 60 sec. etching time. Accordingly, these results indicated that a appropriate etching time in Prime & Bond$^{TM}$ 2.0 was required to be 30 sec. in enamel and 20 sec. in dentin for the high shear bond strength and good adaptation between the composite resin and tooth substance.

본 연구는 시판중인 국내외 제조 플레인 탄산수 5종을 선정하여 우치 법랑질 침식 및 그에 따른 세균 침착 정도를 확인하였다. 탄산수에 시편을 침지 후 용출된 칼슘 농도를 측정하고, SEM을 이용하여 법랑질 표면의 침식을 관찰하였다. 이 후 S. mutans 균과 S. sorbinus 균이 접종된 배지에 시편을 함께 배양하여 침식된 시편의 세균 침착 정도를 확인하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 실험에 사용된 탄산수 5종은 수소이온농도가 pH 5.5보다 낮았고, 치아의 탄산수 침지 후 칼슘의 용출이 확인되었다. SEM을 이용한 치면 침식 분석 결과, 칼슘 용출은 탄산수에 의한 법랑질 침식이 원인임을 확인하였고, 두 분석 방법을 통해 인공 탄산수와 광천수간의 뚜렷한 침식 활성 차이는 관찰되지 않았다. 또한 탄산수에 의해 유발된 치아 침식으로 치면 세균 침착이 용이해지는 것으로 확인되었다. 이런 결과들로부터 탄산수 음용 시 치아 침식이 유발될 수 있으며 그에 따른 구강 내 세균 침착이 가중될 수 있으므로, 탄산수 음용 시 치아 침식 가능성에 대한 소비자의 인식이 필요하며, 탄산수를 물 대체음료 정도로 생각하기보다는 무가당 콜라와 같은 탄산음료에 준하는 범주로 포괄하여 음용하는 것이 바람직하다고 생각된다.

Fracture of cusp, on posterior teeth, especially those carious or restored, is major cause of tooth loss. Inappropriate treatments, such as unnecessarily wide cavity preparations, increase the potential of further trauma and possible fracture of the remaining tooth structures. Fracture potential may be directly related to the stresses exerted upon the tooth during masticatory function. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the fracture resistance of tooth, restored with composite resin inlay. In this study, MOD inlay cavity prepared on maxillary first premolar and restored with composite resin inlay. Three dimensional finite element models with eight nodes isoparametric solid element, developed by serial grinding-photographing technique. These models have various occlusal isthmus and depth of cavity, 1/2, 1/3 and 1/4 of isthmus width and 0.7, 0.85 and 1.0 of depth of cavity. The magnitude of load was 474 N and 172 N as presented to maximal biting force and normal chewing force. These loads applied onto ridges of buccal and lingual cusp. These models analyzed with three dimensional finite element method. The results of this study were as follows : 1. There is no difference of displacement between width of occlusal isthmus and depth of cavity. 2. The stress concentrated at bucco-mesial comer, bucco-disal comer, pulpal line angle and the interface area between internal slopes of cusp and resin inlay. 3. The vector of stress direct to buccal and lingual side from center of cavity, to tooth surface going on to enamel. The magnitude of vector increase from occlusal surface to cervix. 4. The crack of tooth start interface area, between internal slop of buccal cusp and resin inlay. It progresses through buccopulpal line angle to cervix at buccomesial and buccodistal comer. 5. The influence with depth of cavity to fracture of tooth was more than width of isthmus. 6. It would be favorable to make the isthmus width narrower than a third of the intercuspal distance and depth of cavity is below 1 : 0.7.

This study explores the histological features and Bmp4 expression patterns in the replaced tooth germ of Xenopus laevis. Tooth germ formation starts from the dental placode through epithelial-mesenchymal interactions, involving various signaling pathways such as Fgf, Shh, Bmp, and Wnt. In mice, Bmp4 expression in the dental placode inhibits Pax9 expression in the dental mesenchyme. Although absent in the presumptive dental lamina of birds and toothless mammals, Bmp4 remains conserved in reptiles and fish owing to gene duplication. However, its expression in amphibian tooth germs is poorly understood. Three-month-old X. laevis were employed in this study. Initially, samples underwent paraffin embedding and were sectioned into 5 or 12 ㎛ ribbons for H&E staining and in situ hybridization, respectively. Results revealed teeth appearing in two maxillary rows: the labial side, with prefunctional and functional teeth, and the lingual side, with replaced tooth germs behind functional teeth. Enameloid was observed between the inner dental epithelium and dental mesenchyme at the cap or early bell stages, whereas enamel and dentin formed during the late bell or mineralization stages from the replaced tooth germ. Bmp4 expression was evident in the inner dental epithelium (ameloblasts), dental papilla (odontoblasts), stellate reticulum, and Hertwig's epithelial root sheath. Overall, these findings highlight the conservation of Bmp4 expression in X. laevis tooth development.

Runx2는 runt gene family에 속하는 전사조절 인자로써 뼈의 형성과 골아세포의 분화에 중요한 역할을 담당하고 있다. Runx2-haploinsufficency는 쇄골의 저형성 및 두개 봉합의 지연을 특징으로 하는 쇄골두개 이형성증을 일으키며, 치아에 있어서는 법랑질의 저형성, 영구치 맹출지연 등을 보인다. 이에, 치아의 발육 및 맹출에 미치는 Runx2의 영향을 알아보기 위해 in situ hybridization 방법으로 태생 1, 4, 7, 14, 21일 된 쥐의 하악 및 제1대구치를 사용하여 실험을 실시하였다. Runx2-full length는 태생 1일과 4일에 치낭 및 그 주위조직에 보이지만 Runx2-typeII는 보이지 않았다 Runx2-full length는 태생 7일에 치관 교합면 부위의 법랑모세포에 발현하였고, 1주일 후인 태생 14일에는 백악법랑경계 상방의 치관인접면 법랑모세포에서 발현되었다. 이에 반해 Runx2-typeII는 법랑모세포에서 발현하지 않았다. 또한 태생 21일에서는 두 가지 이성질체가 모두 하악골에서 발현을 보였다 이런 결과를 종합해볼 때, Runx2-full length는 치아의 맹출과 연관이 있으며, 법랑모세포의 분화 및 이로 인한 법랑질형성에 영향을 주지만 Runx2-typeII는 하악골의 형성에만 영향을 미치는 것으로 사료된다.
