Purpose: This study utilizes big data from the 8th (2021) National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey to determine first, the relationship between chewing discomfort in the elderly and some systemic diseases and second, whether oral diseases and oral health problems are related to systemic diseases. Since this may have an impact, we aim to provide basic data to facilitate the expansion and emphasize the importance of integrated health management education. Methods: Original data from the 8th (2021) National Health and Nutrition Survey, conducted by the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, were analyzed using SPSS Version 21.0 (IBM). A complex sample frequency analysis was conducted to confirm the general and health-related characteristics of the study subjects, and a complex sample cross-analysis was conducted to determine chewing discomfort according to both general and health-related characteristics. Complex sample multiple logistic regression analysis was conducted to determine the effect on chewing discomfort. Results: In order to analyze the factors that affect chewing discomfort, the general characteristics that showed significant differences in chewing discomfort were adjusted for age, personal income, education level, basic livelihood security, high blood pressure, subjective health status, and subjective oral health. It was found that the condition had a statistically significant effect on chewing discomfort. Conclusion: The findings of this study demonstrate that high blood pressure, subjective health status, and subjective oral health status affect chewing discomfort; hence, measures such as developing and operating programs to improve national oral health are needed. We hope that our study will be used as basic data for research into chewing discomfort and systemic diseases in the elderly.

임플란트 보철물의 저작능력과 관련되어 다양한 요인들이 존재하며 여기에 관해 다양한 연구가 이루어지고 있지만 대부분의 후향적 연구에서는 임플란트 저작력이 다른 유형의 보철물과 비교해서도 우수한 것으로 결론 내리고 있다. 그러나 임상적으로 임플란트 보철치료 후에 저작능력에 대해 만족하지 못하는 환자들이 간혹 있으며 이러한 저작의 불만족을 유발할 가능성이 있는 여러 가지 원인들 중 신경학적 원인에 대해 고찰해 보고자 한다. Pubmed database에서 Implant chewing ability, masticatory ability 등의 임플란트 저작과 관련된 검색어를 사용하여 검색 후 임플란트 보철물의 저작능력에 관련된 요인들 및 임상과 관련된 논문들을 선택하고 고찰하였다. 저작능력에 관한 정의, 저작능력에 관련된 요인들에 대해 고려하였으며 이러한 요인들 중 신경학적 원인과 관련된 내용을 분석 평가하였다. 치주인대(Periodontal Ligament: PDL)의 기계적감각수용기(Mechanoreceptor)는 저작운동 시 치아로부터 얻은 정보를 뇌간으로 전달하여 저작운동의 조절에 관여한다. 임플란트의 경우 치주인대의 부재로 인해 저작운동 시 저작운동 적응 능력이 떨어지며 특히 딱딱한 음식을 저작 시 이러한 현상이 두드러진다. 저작근, TMD의 mechanoreceptor 또한 저작운동에 관여하기 때문에 치주인대의 기계적감각수용기 부재를 보상할 가능성도 있으며 임플란트 주변 조직에 있는 nerve fiber가 감각능력에 관여할 수 있을 가능성에 대한 보고도 있으니 이에 대한 추가 연구가 더 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

This experiment was conducted to evaluate individual difference of chewing speed and chews per bolus duing the rumination using twenty three heads of grazing cattle and thirty six heads of barn feeding cattle. Rumination behaviour was measured and recorded by the masster EMC telemeter and visual observation. The chewing speed (chews/lOOsec) was significantly different individually (C.V. 13.0-14.5 %) among the variable aged group (1-60 months), but that of same aged group showed lower difference (C.V. 4.5 %). The chews per bolus showed even larger individually difference than the chewing speed, so the variable aged group (1-60 months) resulted the 15.5-16.2 %of C.V.and the same aged group showed the 9.5 % of C.V. Under 12 month aged cattle showed more rapid chewing speed than older aged cattle. The chewing speed changed with the growth of cattle, but the chews per bolus did not show any relationship with age, so it is regarded as the individually characteristic pattern.

Purpose: This study was planned to clarify a negative view of chewing gum due to the concern that continuous gum chewing might cause a change in the gonial angle and make the lower facial appearance look square. Materials and Methods: We had 25 adults (13 males and 12 females, with an average of 27.3 years) chew 6 g of gum (spearmint) evenly with both right and left posterior teeth for one hour per day for three months. We then measured their gonial angle, the inclination of occlusal plane, facial height, bone marrow density, and masticatory force before chewing, 1, 2, and 3 month after chewing to verify its significance statistically. Result: The results showed that the gonial angle increased from $122.7^{\circ}$ to $123.3^{\circ}$ (P>0.05), and thus the jaws became slightly slimmer. There was no change in the occlusal plane inclination and facial height. Meanwhile bone marrow density in the mandibular angle and ascending ramus increased from $0.285g/cm^2$ to $0.290g/cm^2$ (P<0.05), and masticatory force also increased by 0.5 kg on the right side and 0.8 kg on the left side (P<0.05). Conclusion: Continuous chewing of gum gives an appropriate exercise effect to the stomatognathic system. As chewing gum has effect on increase bone marrow density without changing the mandibular angle and facial appearance the claim that jaw bone changes to a square jaw through chewing gum is regarded to be groundless.

Dental chewing masticator, which is an essential device for evaluating the wear of dental resin and the interfacial failure between the filling resin and enamel of tooth used in conservative dentistry, was developed. This dental chewing masticator mimics the chewing motion and loading by adapting DC motor and rotary cam system. Chewing loading of 49N was imposed by computer-displacement control, loadcell, LM guide, and spring system. Extracted tooth was fixed into a holding jig, and this jig was mounted with rubber pad on the $15^{\circ}$inclined surface to consider the lateral movement of periodontal ligament. A water bath was installed for providing the environment of inside mouth and for circulating the $5^{\circ}C-55^{\circ}C$ water to evaluate the effect of hydrothermal cycling on the damage of resin filled teeth during long-term chewing activity.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a gum-chewing on the recovery of bowel motility and days of hospitalization after surgery for colorectal cancer. Methods: This study used a non-equivalent control group and non-synchronized design. Thirty-four patients undergoing abdominal surgery for colorectal cancer were assigned to either gum-chewing group (n=17) or control group (n=17). The patients in the gum-chewing group chewed gum for 10 min three times daily from the first postoperative morning until the day they began oral intake. Outcome variables were time of first flatus, time of first bowel movement, and length of hospital stay. Results: Gum-chewing was effective in enhancing the first passage of flatus, but was not effective in enhancing time of bowel movement and length of hospital stay. Conclusion: Gum-chewing can be utilized as a useful nursing intervention to shorten the time of the first flatus of postoperative colectomy.
