The treatment of TMJ ankylosis poses a significant challenge because of technical difficulties and high incidence of recurrence. TMJ ankylosis has been treated by excision and total joint reconstruction with alloplastic, allogeneic, autogenous materials as interpositional materials. The temporalis myofascial flap had been considered to be a successful interpositional material, due to its anatomical, topographical, and functional properties. This study evaluated the efficacy of the temporalis myofascial flap for nine TMJs (five patients) through the preauricular approach and coronoidectomy. Radiographic and physiologic long term result was investigated in this study. The result reveals that the temporalis myofascial flap is a good autogenous tissue satisfying the criteria of an ideal interpositional material, which offers a material that fulfills the physiological function of the disc. In spite of favorable functional outcome, mild postoperative openbite tendency remains another challenge.
The purpose of the present investigation was to compare the effectiveness of porous hydroxyapatite (PHA) and coralline based porous calcium carbonate(PCC) as implant materials in human periodontal osseous defects. 10 adult patients having periodontitis and 2 similar angular osseous defects ${\ge}$5mm as verified by radiographic analysis and clinical probing depth ${\ge}$4mm were selected. The measurements were recorded just before surgery and after 6 month. Clinical parameters used in this study included gingival recession, pocket depth, probing attachment level, Sulcus Bleeding Index, Plaque Index, tooth mobility and bone defect depth measurements. After initial therapy, patients were treated with mucoperiosteal flap surgery. The contralateral bony defects in each patient randomly assigned to either bone graft material, one with PHA(Interpore 200) and the other with coralline based calcium carbonate(Biocoral). After 6 month both groups showed statistically significant reduction of pocket depth, Sulcus Bleeding Index, Plaque Index and significant improvement in probing attachment level. No statistically significant differences were found between the groups. There were 3.0mm or 68% of bone repair with PHA and 3.1mm, 61% with PCC. These values were likewise not significantly different. The data and clinical impression strongly suggest that both PHA and PCC are alloplastic implants with clinically apparent acceptance by the soft and hard tissue and that they can be used as bone graft materials successfully.
Recently, for the reconstruction of bony defect and cosmetic improvement, many graft materials and implants have been widely used in the various surgical situations. The alloplastic materials have many advantages such as simplicity of operation, no additional need of surgery, and easy manipulation. The $Medpor^{TM}$(porous high-density polyethylene, Porex Co., USA) was initially studied in 1972 for surgical implant and introduced as an implant material for oral and maxillofacial region by Sauer and King in 1988. This material permits full ingrowth of bone into the implants, substantially increasing the implant's incorporation into the recipient site. It can be shaved during the surgery, which results in an improvement and prefabricated various size and shapes to fit into the surgical defect. The $Medpor^{TM}$ was used in 32 patients from 1995 to 1997 at the maxillofacial region. It was used for paranasal augmentation in 24 cases, for malar augmentation in 2 cases, for infraorbital augmentation in 2 cases, for mandibular angle augmentation in 2 cases, for mandibular body augmentation in 2 cases, for chin vertical augmentation in 1 case. It was mainly fixed with miniplate or screw. There were few complications except one infection and one exposure of the implant.
The purpose of this study was to investigate effects of the natural coral(NC) and the hydroxyapatite/calcium sulfate hemihydrate(HA/CS) on an early stages of wound healing in the rat periodontal fenestration defects. In this experiment, twelve male rats(Mean : 520g in BW) aged 8 to 9 months were used. Experimental periodontal fenestration defects were surgically created with tapered fissure bur at the buccal surface of the left mandibular 1st, 2nd molars. The buccal aspects of molar roots were carefully denuded of their periodontal ligament through a bony window created in the left mandibles of rats under general anesthesia. Each experimental periodontal fenestration defect was grafted with natural coral and HA/CS, randomly. An area without bone graft was assigned for negative control group. At 10,35 days, rats were serially sacrificed via intracardiac perfusion with 2.5% glutaraldehyde and specimens were processed with Hematoxylin-Eosin stain for light microscopic evaluation. The results of this study were as follows : 1. The defect areas were filled with dense connective tissues at 10 days in control group. But in the test(NC, HA/CS)groups, the connective tissues around graft materials were formed more loosely and the response of inflammation by graft materials itself was not found. 2. The defect areas were filled with new osteoid tissues and new cementum was not formed on the cut root surface at 35 days in the control group. 3. New osteoid tissue formation was more prominent at 35 days in control than test groups. 4. The NC and HA/CS particles were encapsulated by loose connective tissues at 10 days and by dense connective tissues at 35 days, respectively. 5. In the test groups, resorption of graft particles was not found through the experimental time. From the above results, natural coral and hydroxyapatite/calcium sulfate hemihydrate may be biocompatible and osteoconductive and have a weak adverse reaction to the periodontal tissues.
The socket preservation procedure was a simple and effective technique, and has better prognosis for implantation. The socket preservation usually used barrier membrane in combination with/without alloplastic bone materials. A recently study had shown that a regenerative therapy to tooth extraction utilizing growth factors made better results. Platelet-rich plasma was clinically easy method that acquired the growth factors, and is known that accelerated new bone formation and mineralization of bone graft materials. The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical and histopathologic results which occur following socket preservations using platelet-rich plasma and bovine bone powder. Twelve patients who required extraction of one or more teeth for implantation at the department of periodontics in Dankook University Dental Hospital were selected. Extraction sockets were treated by using platelet-rich plasma and bovine bone powder. 3 months later, we observed clinical and histopathological results as follows: 1. Internal vertical measurement was an average of 7.33mm preoperatively and statistically significantly decreased to an average of 1.42mm postoperatively(p<0.05). 2. External vertical measurement was an average of 3.33mm preoperatively and decreased to an average of 2.75mm postoperatively; therefore there was no significant difference. 3. Horizontal measurement was an average of 7.75mm preoperatively and statistically decreased to an average of 6.08mm postoperatively(p<0.05). 4. Osteocyte-like cells and new bone formation connected with bovine bone grafts were observed in histopathologic examination. This study implied that platelet-rich plasma and bovine bone powder grafts were effective treatment for socket preservation and regeneration of severe bony defect made by implantation failure.

Objective : Cranioplasty is required to protect underlying brain, to correct major aesthetic deformities, or both. The ideal material for this purpose is autogenous bone. When this is not available, alloplastic or artificial materials may be used. In this study authors compared the infection rate according to the cranioplasty materials(the frozen autologous bone vs. bone cement), and duration of the skull defect. Materials : Between May 1994 and December 1999, 111 patients with skull defect treated with cranioplasty(82 cases of frozen autologous bone and 29 cases of artificial bone material) were included in this study. There were 77 males and 34 females with a mean age of 41.4 years(range 1-85 years). 57 patients had head trauma and 54 had non-traumatic insults. According to the duration of skull defect, there were 28 cases under 1 month, 33 cases of 1-2 months, 15 cases of 2-3 months, 20 cases of 3-6 months and 15 cases over 6 months of duration. Results : Overall infection rate was 9.9%. In cases with frozen autologous bone and artificial bone material, the infection rate was 8.5% and 13.7%, respectively. The infection rate according to the duration of skull defect was 3.6%(among 28 cases) under 1 month of age, while those were 12%(4 among 33 cases) at 1-2 months, 20%(3 among 15 cases) at 2-3 months, 5%(1 among 20 cases) at 3-6 months and 13%(2 among 15 cases) over 6 months. Accoring to the underlying disease, the infection rate in traumatic cases was 12%(7 among 57 cases) and that in non-traumatic one was 3.7%(2 among 54 cases). Conclusion : From this study, it appears that skull defect should be repaired as soon as possible, because early cranioplasty can lower the infection rate. And surgeons could save the patients' cranial bone as possible as they can because autologous bone is not only cost effective in cosmatic purpose but lower the infection rate.

Background Many methods have been proposed for the correction of sunken upper eyelids. These methods include surgical treatments, such as micro-fat, dermofat, or fascia-fat grafts, or the use of alloplastic materials. Here, we present our experience of sunken upper eyelid correction involving the simple addition of anchoring the central fat pad to the medial fat pad during upper blepharoplasty. Methods We performed 74 cases of upper blepharoplasty with sunken upper eyelid correction between October 2013 and September 2014. The lateral portion of the central fat pad was partially dissected to facilitate anchoring. The medial fat pad was gently exposed and then pulled out to facilitate anchoring. After the rotation of the dissected lateral portion of the central fat pad by $180^{\circ}$ to the medial side, it was anchored spreading to the medial fat pad. Photographs taken at 6 months postoperatively were presented to three physicians for objective assessment. Of the 74 patients, 54 patients followed at 6 months postoperatively were included in this retrospective, objective assessment. Results Sunken eyelids were effectively corrected in 51 of the 54 patients, but 3 had minimal effect because preaponeurotic fat pads had been removed during previous upper blepharoplasty. In addition to correcting sunken eyelids, lateral bulging was corrected and a better definition of the lateral portion of upper lid creases was obtained. Conclusions Anchoring the central fat pad to the medial fat pad provides an effective means of correcting sunken upper eyelids during upper blepharoplasty.
Purpose: Reconstruction of the craniofacial defects can be carried out with autogenous tissues, allogenic implants, or alloplastic materials. Titanium mesh systems have been used for bony reconstruction in non load-bearing areas. They offer several advantages: immediate availibility without any donor site morbidity, easy handling, stable 3-D reconstruction, and low susceptibility to infection. The aim of this study is to evaluate the usefulness and complications of titanium mesh system in the reconstruction of the craniofacial defects. Methods: From Jan. 2000, to Dec. 2004, we performed reconstruction of craniofacial bone defects in 21 patients who had benign or malignant tumor and fracture events in the cranium, orbit, nasal bone, maxilla, zygoma and the mandible. The size of the defects ranged from $1.0{\times}1.5cm$ to $12{\times}10cm$. Two different mesh systems, micro-titanium augmentation mesh and dynamic mesh was used for bony reconstruction in non load-bearing areas. The patients were evaluated from 1 to 4 yrs clinically and radiographically with a mean follow up period of 1.5 yrs. Results: There were no serious complications, including wound infection, foreign body reaction, exposures or loos of the mesh, central infection and pathologic findings of bone around mesh exception of one patient, who had expired of skull base tumor recurrence. Long-term stability of the reconstructions and the overall functional and aesthetic outcome was excellent. Conclusion: Our experiences demonstrate that the Titanium mesh system is a relatively safe and efficient method in the craniofacial reconstruction and have broadens our choices of therapeutic procedures in the craniomaxillofacial surgery.
Temporomandibular ankylosis is defined as a situation in which the condyle is fused to the fossa by bone or fibrous tissue. Conditons such as trauma, infection, or systemic disease may predispose to various types of ankylosis, bringing about different levels of limitation in mandibular movement. Most patients with temporomandibular ankylosis are associated with limitation of maximal mouth opening, deviation of the chin toward the affected side, impaired occlusion, chronic pain, compromised oral hygiene, severe facial asymmetry & impeded mandibular molar eruption occurring in childhood. Several techniques to release ankylosis have been described in the literature, showing variable and often unsatisfactory results. The most frequently used operations are gap arthroplasty, interpositional arthroplasty, and exicision and joint reconstruction with autogenous or alloplastic materials. We have managed the two patients of TMJ ankylosis. They had previously TMJ surgery and we treated with gap arthroplasty & active physial therapy. We have obtained favorable results and report these cases with literatures review.
Purpose: Blow-out fractures can be reduced using various methods. The orbital reconstruction technique using a balloon under endoscopic control has advantages over other methods. However, this method has some problems too, such as postoperative follow-up, management of the balloon catheter, and reduction of the posterior orbital floor. Thus, we developed a simple, effective method for orbital floor reduction that involves molding and shaping the antral balloon catheter. Methods: A 0, 30, or $70^{\circ}$, 4-mm endoscope was placed though a two-point, 5-mm maxillary antrostomy. The balloon catheter is placed directly at the orbital apex to reconstruct the anterior shelf (spherical shape), while it is turned in a U-shape towards the anterior maxilla for the posterior shelf (elliptical shape). Orbital floor defects, compound or comminuted fractures are reconstructed with alloplastic materials through an open lid incision under the endoscopic control. Results: This technique was applied to ten patients with orbital floor fractures: five anterior shelf and five posterior shelf fracture, respectively. Four of the patients had zygomatico-orbital fractures, while the rest had isolated orbital floor fractures. Two patients were given porous polyethylene implants Synpor$^{(R)}$) and three underwent reconstruction with a resorbable mesh plate. No complication associated with this technique was identified. Conclusion: The freestyle placement and selection of a urinary balloon catheter under endoscopic control and the preoperative estimation of the volume enhanced the stabilization of the orbital contour. This method improves the adaptation of the orbital floor without the risk of injuring the surrounding orbital contents, dissecting blindly, or using sharp traction. One drawback of this method is the patient's discomfort from the catheter during treatment.
