In order to observe the frequency of visits and the distribution of endodontically treated patients according to age, sex, diagnosis, type of teeth, the author had surveyed the 17,250 outpatients of the Infirmary of the College Dentistry, Yonsei University from January 1976 to December 1978. 773 cases, 660 patients among 728 endodontically treated patients were studied. The obtained results were as follow; 1. The average frequency of visits were 5.95 in uppers and 5.88 in lowers. 2. The average frequency of visits were 5.79 in males and 6.02 in females. 3. At the age of under 14, the average frequency of visits were 7.42 in uppers and 6.76 in lowers. 4. According to diagnoses, the average frequency of visits in periapical granuloma or cyst were 2.80 in uppers and 3.16 in lowers. 5. The number of endodontically treated teeth had revealed as follow; upper incisors 27.94%, lower molars 25.87%, and upper molars 15.13% 6. The number of endodontically treated teeth by diagnoses were as follow; periapical abscess 45.27%, pulpit is 37.51%, tooth fracture 8.40%. 7. The number of endodontically treated teeth were 51.99% in the age of from 20 to 34.

연구목적: 본 연구에서는 한국인의 상하악 전치부간의 색조차이를 상하악 치아 순면의 정중부의 색조를 분광측색장치 (Spectrophotometer)를 이용하여 CIE $L^{*}a^{*}b^{*}$ 색체계로 비교분석을 하여, 실제 한국인의 상하악 전치부간의 색조차이에 관하여 알아보고 자 하였다. 연구대상 및 방법: 수복물이 없으며 치주적으로 건강한 정상적인 치관부의 형태의 상하악 12전치를 가진 20대, 30대, 40대, 50대 이상 10명씩 남녀 각 40명씩 총80명을 대상으로 색조 측정을 시행하였다. 연구재료: $SpectroShade^{TM}$ MICRO (MHT S.p.A., Italy) 디지털 색조 분석 기구로서 대상 치아의 디지털 영상을 채득하여 이를 기계 내에 포함된 색조 분석시스템을 통해 shade map의 형태로 입력 분석하여 주는 장치이다. 결론: 1. 전치부 상, 하악 치아간 색조차이는 중절치, 측절치, 견치 모두에서 ${\Delta}E^{*}$가 보다 큰 것으로 나타났다. 2. 상, 하악 견치 간 색조차이는 중절치, 측절치 간의 색조차이보다 더 두드러지고 중절치간 측절치간 색조차이 정도는 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 3. 남녀 성별에 따른 상, 하악 치아 간의 색조차이는 그 정도가 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 4. 각 연령대에 따른 상, 하악 치아간 색조차이의 정도는 연령대와 상관없이 유사한 것으로 나타났다.

In order to evaluate the normal eruption time of Korean permanent teeth, the uthor had examined the eruption phases of permanent central incisors in 714 malw and 581 female children aged from 4.5 to 9-year old and analysed. The eruption was divided into 3 phases; the tip of crown can be seen, the half of the crown can be easily seen, and full length of the crown can be seen. The obtained results were as follows : 1. It seemed that percentage of the erupting and erupted permanent central incisor in female by age was higher than that of male. 2. In general, percentage of the erupting and erupted lower central incisor by age was higher than that of upper first molar.

The purpose of this study was to determine the mean value of overbite and overjet, and to find the correlation among overbite, overjet and relative maxillofacial structures using the data from orthodontic casts and cephalometric films of boys and girls aged from 9 to 18 years with normal occlusions. The results were obtained as follows: 1. Incisal overbite depth was decreased from Group I to Group III. 2. The highest value of correlation coefficient with incisal overbite was 0.368 of incisal angle. in Group III. 3. Overjet was not significantly correlated with the age and sex. 4. Ratio of mesiodistal diameters of upper and lower incisors was not significantly correlated with overbite and overjet.

In order to collect some necessary data to promote correcting the toothbrushing technic on the Korean public, the author had examined the number of present teeth on which had cervical abrasion and the most basic home dental care in 2,000 Korean male and female adults from 19 to 52 years in the age. Then, the cervical abrasion experience rate and the cervical abrasion experience teeth rate were calculated and evaluated. The obtained results were as follows: 1. Cervical abrasion experience rate was 32.45% 2. Cervical abrasion experience rate was gradually increased by ageing. 3. Cervical abrasion experience rate in male adults was higher than that in female adults. 4. Cervical abrasion experience rate in the lower jaw was higher than that in the upper jaw. 5. Cervical abrasion experience rate of the teeth at the right side was higher than that of the teeth at the left side. 6. Cervical abrasion experience teeth rate was 3.82%. 7. Cervical abrasion experience rate was highest on the first bicuspid, and followed in the sequence of the second bicuspid, canine, first molar, incisors, and 2nd and 3rd molars.

The present study was performed to establish the cephalometric standards of Hellman dental age II C groups of Korean on the roentgenocephalometry. The subjects consisted of 26 males and 25 females with normal occlusion and acceptable profile. The major conclusions may be listed as follows: 1) The tables of standard deviation from the measurements were made. 2) All linear measurements of skeletal pattern in male were greater than in female with exception of the mandibular body length measurement. 3) The labial inclinations of the upper and lower incisors were greater in female than in male. 4) Vertical growth tendency of the face nab conformed in the late primary dentition as compared with the measurements of the mixed dentition.

This study was undertaken to investigate the values of the cephalometric standards of Korean children which consisted of 57 boys and 61 girls with normal occlusion and harmony of the facial musculature. The following conclusions were obtained. 1) The relatively vertical inclination of nasal bone and flat contour of the frontal bone contribute to the flattening of the upper face. 2) Slight lack of chin prominence characterizes the lower face while procumbent incisors and their alveolar bone dominate the middle face. 3) A caudal skull base inclination is probably the most specific feature for Korean.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of mesiodens among children in Korea. The study population consisted of 20 children whose ages ranged from 4 years to 26 years. The characteristics of mesiodens were obtained from radiographs and clinical examination results, and were confirmed by surgical intervention. Results showed that males were affected four times as frequently as female. Thirty-five percent of the patients had more than one supernumerary tooth. About 67% of the mesiodens were conical in shape and about 34% of the mesiodens were in the upward position. The age and sex distribution, number of mesiodens per patient, shape, direction, size, and effect on permanent upper incisors are also presented in this study.

Anterior spacing is one of the interesting phenomena in clinical orthodontics and presents difficulties in determining the etiology and the retention method. Only through the careful examination can orthodontists reach the correct diagnosis and treatment plan and every orthodontist should get rid of the cause to obtain good results. The author considered about the treatment and the retention method of the anterior spacing according to etiology and presented two eases of anterior spacing. In the first ease, the etiology was simple arch length discrepancy with excessively protruded anteriors. In the second ease, the etiology was the same as the above but the patient had the tongue thrusting habit. Both the eases showed the thin fibrous tissue bands between the upper central incisors but only the second case was thought to be associated with this tissue. The permanent retention loop which is non-surgical was applied to the ease and the results were acceptable.

This is a case report of Crouzon's disease as a kind of craniofacial dysostosis by premature closure of unilateral coronal suture, showed plagiocephalic skull. 5-year-old boy was visited for the treatment of dental caries and oral examination. Physical examination showed hypertelorism, internal strabismus, and saddle nose. Intraoral radiographs showed congenital missing of upper right and left deciduous and permanent lateral incisors. Cephalometric analysis showed shortening the posterior cranial base length, clockwise growth pattern and class III and open bite tendency. Posterior-anterior and submentovertex view showed multiple radiolucencies-digital impression on inner surface of cranial vault. Maxillo-facial and neuro-surgical treatment was required to improvement of facial esthetics and optic complications. Continuous examination was needed to the growth and development.
