Class II malocclusion can be treated via early orthopedic, orthodontic treatment or orthognathic surgery with orthodontic treatment. In the mixed dentition, early orthopedic treatment can be used. Especially, in the case of mandibular retrognathism, the functional appliances can be used, and in the case of maxillary protrusion is combined, they can be used together with headgear. After using activator and activator combined with headgear to the class II malocclusion paitent in the mixed dentition, the results were as follows: 1. Lateral profile was improved, and lower face height was increaed. 2. Overjet was decreased, and molar relationship was changed to class I molar relationship. 3. Growth can be undisturbed, and the aggravation of malocclusion can be prevented to make the 2nd phase orthodontic treatment be much easier.

The treatment of skeletal Class II growing patient is to move the mandible into the Class I molar positon via facilitating mandibular growth. The functional appliances are to be designed to exert three major functions such as palatal expansion, forward growth of mandible and increase of the posterior vertical dimension. One of the devices that can achieve both the palatal expansion and the eruption of the mandibular molar is the Twin-Block introduced by Clark in 1982. In this part, we present the treatment method with Twin-Block functional appliance for the correction of skeletal Class II growing patient.

Exposed root surfaces can cause esthetic problems, hypersensitivity, and root caries. Numerous efforts have been tried to cover the recessed root surfaces, and various techniques have been developed and introduced. Among these, subepithelial connective tissue graft which shows high coverage rate in various researches, has the advantage of good color match, less discomfort to the donor site, rich vascularity, and high predictability. Following results were obtained after investigating 6 and 18 months post operatively, 98 cases of subepithelial connective tissue graft from 48 patients who underwent subepithelial connective tissue graft procedure in the department of periodontology, college of dentistry, Yonsei university. 1. The total average root coverage of Miller class I, II & III were 76.2?24% at 6 months follow-up and 75?25.2% at 18 months follow-up with no statistically significant difference between the follow-up periods.(p<0.05) 2. The percentage of teeth showing complete coverage were 41.9% at 6 months follow-up and 39.2% at 18 months follow-up. 3. At 6 months follow-up, Miller classification I showed 84.9?20.7%, class II showed 82.5?17.7%, and class III showed 62.3?24.5% of coverage. In class III recession, statistically significantly less root coverage was observed compared to class I & II. (p(0.05) 4. At 18 months follow-up, Miller classification I showed 92.2?13.5%, class II showed 84.3?17.4%, and class III showed 59.5?24.5% of coverage. In class III recession, statistically significantly less root coverage was observed compared to class I & II. (p<0.05) In conclusion, subepithelial connective tissue graft for class I and II recession can be used as a clinically predictable treatment modality for root coverage.

This study was designed to get the informations of the mesiodistal axial inclinations of the posterior teeth and of the relationships between these and other angular measurements of facial bony structures in normal occlusion and malocclusion groups using lateral roentgenocephalograms. The subjects consisted of 73 normal occlusions (31 males 42 females), 38 Class II Division 1 malocclusions (17 males 21 females) and 47 Class III malocclusions (19 males 28 females). The findings of this study are as follows : 1. In mandible, the posterior teeth axes of Class II Division 1 malocclusion group were inclined more mesially and those of Class III malocclusion group were inclined more distally than normal occlusion group. In maxilla, Class II Division 1 malocclusion group showed more distal inclination and Class III malocclusion group showed more mesial inclinaton of 1st, 2nd premolars and more distal inclination of 1st, 2nd molars than those of the normal occlusion group. 2. There was a tendency for teeth axes to maintain nearly the same inclination in relation to occlusal plane irrespective of various OMA and OPA in each group. 3. F M A, P M A and O P A were the largest in Class II Division 1 malocclusion group and O M A, GoA were the largest in Class 111 malocclusion group. 4. There were high correlationships between mandibular teeth inclinations related to mandibular plane and 4 angular measurements except OPA, and between maxillary teeth inclinations related to palatal plane and OPA.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the difference between normal and malocclusion subjects in Temporomandibular joint. This study was based on the 44 subjects with normal occlusion, 30 subjects with Class II malocclusion, 30 subjects with Class III malocclusion before treatment. After submental vertex view analysis, each subject was given the TMJ Tomogram in centric relation and centric occlusion and the Cephalogram was taken with Quint Sectograph. The TMJ spaces were measured and analyzed statistically. Following results were obtained. 1. When centric relation was compared to centric occlusion, The condyles were positioned more posteriorly and superiorly in centric relation position of the normal occlusion group and the class II malocclusion group. In the Class III malocclusion group. There was no significant difference in the condylar position between centric occlusion and centric relation. 2. The condyles of the Class III malocclusion group were positioned more superiorly than the normal occlusion group and the Class II malocclusion group. 3. In the correlation between articular eminence posterior slope angle and lingual slope angle of the upper anterior central incisor, there was significant correlation in the normal occlusion group. But no significant correlation was found in the malocclusion group. 4. The mean value of the horizontal angulation of condylar head to the transear rod axis plane was $20.32^{\circ}{\pm}8.12^{\circ}$ in the normal occlusion group, $25.08^{\circ}{\pm}4.83^{\circ}$ in the class II malocclusion group, $14.68^{\circ}{\pm}4.08^{\circ}$ in the class III malocclusion group.

In murine collagen-induced arthritis (CIA), self-reactive T cells can recognize peptide antigens derived from type-II collagen (CII). Activation of T cells is an important mediator of autoimmune diseases. Thus, T cells have become a focal point of study to treat autoimmune diseases. In this study, we evaluated the efficacy of recombinant MHC class II molecules in the regulation of antigen-specific T cells by using a self peptide derived from CII (CII260-274; IAGFKGEQGPKGEPG) linked to mouseI-A^q in a murine CIA model. We found that recombinant I-A^q/CII260-274 molecules could be recognized by CII-specific T cells and inhibit the same T cells in vitro. Furthermore, the development of CIA in mice was successfully prevented by in vivo injection of recombinant I-A^q/CII260-274 molecules. Thus, treatment with recombinant soluble MHC class II molecules in complex with an immunodominant self-peptide might offer a potential therapeutic for chronic inflammation in autoimmune disease such as rheumatoid arthritis.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the removable partial denture prescriptions including surveyed crowns and design of component parts sent to the laboratory technician. A total of 351 casess with prescription forms and master cast in maxillary and mandibular semi-edentulous situations collected from dental laboratory by random sampling were selected for this study. The evaluation and study observed here involved the classification of edentulous situations, status of abutment splinting, form of rest seats and guiding plane of surveyed crows, location of maxillary major connectors and tripodig marks on the master casts. Removable partial denture prescriptions contained (1) general request (upper and lower cast framework), (2) types of metal, (3) location of retainer(retention, lingual bracing, rest area, guiding plane surface), (4) location and type of major connector, (5) relief area and amount, (6) and other specific instructions. The following informations based on the classified groups such as Group I was those cases sent with no real prescriptions. They say 'make a partial.' No prescriptions, no thought beforehand, Group II was those cases sent with a minimal prescriptions. They say 'make a partial with clasps on May be some preparations, usually inadequate. Group III was those cases sent with a moderately good prescription. Adequate but could be much better. No tripoding but it tell what clasps go where. Still not good prescriptions. Group IV was good cases, tripoded with adequate prescriptions and a prescription which exactly describes what is expected from the laboratory. The analyzed results were as follows: 1. The normal form of rest seats and guiding plane of surveyed crowns in Class. I and Class. II edentulous situations on the maxillary cast were observed 31.9% and 27.89%, respectively. The abutment teeth and retainer without occlusal rests of Class. I and Class. II were showed 11.58% and 8.86%, respectively. In mandibular cases, the normal form of rest seats and guiding plane of surveyed crowns showed 27.54% and 8.82% in Class. I and Class. II situation. The abutment teeth and retainer without rest seats were showed 15.19%, respectively. 2. The splinted surveyed crowns of Class. I and Class. II maxillary edentulous situations in distal extension cases were showed 34.51% and 28.85%, but 28.52% and 10.29%, respectively. 3. The location and type of maxillary major connector delineated on the master cast were 66 cases (44.89%). 4. The results of 351 cases were classified as Group I 146(41.59%), Group II 115 (32.76%), Group III 57 (16.23%), and Group IV 33 (9.48%). 5. The delineation of abutment tooth for clasping were 176 cases (50.14%) among total of 351 cases. 6. The delineation of height of contour line were showed 45 cases (12.8%) in Group II, 14 cases (3.98%) in Group III and 33 cases (9.40%) in Group IV with total 92 cases (26.21%). 7. In surveying procedure, the delineation of tripoding marks and reference line were showed 17 cases (4.84%).

Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze tooth movement and arch width changes in maxillary dentition following nonextraction treatment with orthodontic mini-implant (OMI) anchorage in Class II division 1 malocclusions. Methods: Seventeen adult patients diagnosed with Angle's Class II division 1 malocclusion were treated by nonextraction with OMIs as anchorage for distalization of whole maxillary dentition. Three-dimensional virtual maxillary models were superimposed with the best-fit method at the pretreatment and post-treatment stages. Linear, angular, and arch width variables were measured using Rapidform 2006 software, and analyzed by the paired t -test. Results: All maxillary teeth showed statistically significant movement posteriorly (p < 0.05). There were no significant changes in the vertical position of the maxillary teeth, except that the second molars were extruded (0.86 mm, p < 0.01). The maxillary first and second molars were rotated distal-in ($4.5^{\circ}$, p < 0.001; $3.0^{\circ}$, p < 0.05, respectively). The intersecond molar width increased slightly (0.1 mm, p > 0.05) and the intercanine, interfirst premolar, intersecond premolar, and interfirst molar widths increased significantly (2.2 mm, p < 0.01; 2.2 mm, p < 0.05; 1.9 mm, p < 0.01; 2.0 mm, p < 0.01; respectively). Conclusions: Nonextraction treatment with OMI anchorage for Class II division 1 malocclusions could retract the whole maxillary dentition to achieve a Class I canine and molar relationship without a change in the vertical position of the teeth; however, the second molars were significantly extruded. Simultaneously, the maxillary arch was shown to be expanded with distal-in rotation of the molars.
