The Twin Blocks technique was developed by Dr. William Clark of Scotland during the early 1980's. Twin Blocks are an uncomplicated system that incorporates the use of upper and lower bite blocks. These blocks reposition the mandible and redirect occlusal forces to achieve rapid correction of malocclusions. They are also comfortable and the patients wear them full-time-inducing eating time. Occlusal forces transmitted through the dentition provide a constant proprioceptive stimulus to influence the rate of growth and the trabecular structure of the supporting bone. The features of Twin Blocks mean easier and quicker treatment. The occlusal inclined plane is the fundamental functional mechanism of the natural dentition. Twin blocks are bite blocks that effectively modify the occlusal inclined plane to induce favorably directed occlusal forces by causing a functional mandibular displacement. Upper and lower bite blocks interlock at a $45^{\circ}$ angle and are designed for full-time wear to take advantage of all functional forces applied to the dentition including the forces of mastication. The patients who were treated with modified Twin Blocks, and following results were observed: 1. Large overjet and deep overbite were corrected. 2. Class II molar relationship was changed into Class I. 3. Labial inclination of upper incisors was corrected by adjustment of labial bow of upper bite block. 4. The profiles of two patients were improved by anterior displacement of mandible.

For the purpose of estimation of age based on changes in the human root dentin transparency, 173 extracted teeth in each part of upper & lower Lt. & Rt. central, lateral incisors to Lt. & Rt. 2nd premolars were evaluated and analized in terms of root dentin transparency. The results are as follows : 1. It was reconfirmed that there exisits coparatively close correlatonship between age and the root dentin transparency. 2. It was proved that the correlation between the changes in the length and the area of the root dentin transparecy in accordance with the ages of each tooth was highest at the upper central incisor, and next at the low central incisor and the upper second premoloar respectively. 3. In the analysis of the age of the transparency, the error was less in the measurement of the area than in the measurement of the length in regard to the estimation of age. 4. The results from the test of the upper central incisor were boiled down to the following linear equation about the correlation among the area and the length of the transparency, and the age: Y=6.94X+14.7(r=0.59) (Y:estimated age, X:length mm) Y=138.47X+12.31(r=0.72) (Y:estimeted age, $X:area\textrm{cm}^2$)

Utility arch wire를 이용한 상악 4절치 압하시 중절치와 측절치의 초기 응력 분포를 알아보기 위하여 컴퓨터 단층 촬영된 정상 교합자의 치아 사진으로부터 유한요소 모델을 만든 후 beam요소로 만든 utility arch wire의 구치부에 $45^{\circ}$ tipback을 부여하고 전치부에 $5^{\circ},\;10^{\circ},\;15^{\circ}$ crown lingual torque를 부여하여 activation한 후 치아와 치근막 유한요소 모델에 적용하여 해를 구한 다음 중절치와 측절치의 치경부, 치근 중간부, 치근첨부의 세 부분에서 초기 응력분포를 조사하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 중절치는 $5^{\circ},\;10^{\circ},\;15^{\circ}$ activation 했을 때 치경부의 원심 구개측과 치근첨의 근심 순측에서는 압축이, 치경부의 근심순측과 치근첨의 원심 구개측에서 약한 인장이 나타나는 양상이 각각의 경우에 거의 비슷하게 나타났다. 주응력의 크기 또한 거의 비슷하였다. 그러나 $10^{\circ}$ activation 했을 때 그 양상이 가장 강하였다. 2. 측절치는 $5^{\circ},\;10^{\circ},\;15^{\circ}$ activation했을 때 치경부의 순측과 치근 첨부의 구개측에서 압축이 치경부의 구개측과 치근첨부의 순측에서 인장이 나타나는 양상이 각각의 경우에 거의 비슷하게 나타났다. 그러나 $10^{\circ}$ activation했을 때 그 양상이 가장 강하였다.

It is difficult to make an artificial central incisor similar to natural tooth. All ceramic porcelain of this patient is not esthetic, and there is gingival recession due to ill-fitted margin. She has class II division 1 occlusion, so upper central incisors is labioversed. Upper light central incisor is well-characterized but the yellowish brown color of dentin is appeared on the incisal third portion of the central incisor. At 1st trial, the shape and characterization of restoration is good but shade is little dark. At 2nd trial, the shape is better but patient complained on black triangle of mid interdental space, so mesiocervical portion of restoration is overcontoured to compromise the black triangle. Completed metal ceramic crown is in harmony with the adjacent central incisor in aspect of shape, shade, and characterization.

The purpose of study was to test the hypothesis that preschool children who experienced nursing caries have high dft index and caries activity in primary dentition. One thousand and seventy-five preschool children from 4 to 6 years old were examined for their caries experience and salivary invertase activity by Resazurin Disc Test. Nursing caries group was identified by the criteria of having more decayed and filled teeth among the upper incisors than among the upper molars. The prevalence of nursing caries was 15.8%. The dft index of nursing caries group was significantly higher than that of the other groups except the rampant caries group(P<0.01). The Resazurin Disc Test score of nursing caries group was significantly higher than that of the other groups(P<0.01) and there was no difference between nursing caries group and rampant caries group. Therefore, it is recommended that children who experienced nursing caries should be incorporated in the caries prevention program through the primary and mixed dentition.

This study was undertaken to establish the roentgenocephalometric standards of the Korean children in Hellman dental age III C. The subjects consisted of 33 males and 33 females with the normal occlusion and acceptable profile. The lateral cephalometric films were taken with the teeth in centric occlusion, the soft tissue outline of the nose, lips, and chin was made visible by the low-speed films, 70Kvp, 100Mas. Their linear and angular measurements were performed by Jarabak's methods. The following results were obtained; 1) The author made the tables of standard deviation from the measured values. 2) Each linear measurement of the skull was greater in males than in females. 3) The maxillary basal bones were more protrusive in Korean children than in Caucasian. 4) The degree of the facial convexity was larger in Korean children than in Caucasian. 5) The labial inclination of the upper & lower incisors was greater in Korean children than in Caucasian. The labial inclination of the upper incisor was greater in females, but the labial inclination of the lower incisor was greater in males.

19 years old female had untreated Veau classification class II cleft palate with ectopic eruption of upper right lateral incisor and congenital missing of lower lateral incisors. Upper left lateral incisor, left first molar aid lower left first molar were root restswithperiapicalpathologiclesions. So all root rests were extracted and prosthodontic rehabilitation after orthodontic treatment was planned. She was treated by means of multibanded system with face bow. After 23 months all orthodontic correction were achieved and, as soos as debanding procedure was done she was referred to oral surgeon and prosthodontist for surgical operation and bridge construction.

This study aimed to compare the efficiency of propylene glycol (PG) and distilled water (DW) as vehicles that would allow diffusion of dye through the root canal system. Human maxillary central incisors were chosen and de-crowned. After enlarging the upper part of the root canal with a Peeso reamer, cementum covering the upper third of the root was removed. The roots were ultrasonically irrigated with 5% NaOCI to remove smear layer.(omitted)
