본 연구에서는 생체 외 조건에서 12개의 관형 피질골 샘플에 대하여 피질골 샘플의 축방향을 따라 전파하는 first arriving signal (FAS) 및 slow guided wave (SGW)와 같은 유도초음파의 위상속도를 측정하고, 각각의 위상속도와 피질골 두께 사이의 상관관계를 고찰하였다. FAS 및 SGW의 위상속도는 12.7 mm의 직경 및 200 kHz의 중심 주파수를 갖는 한 쌍의 비집속형 초음파 변환기와 함께 공기중에서 축방향 전파법을 이용하여 측정되었다. 200 kHz에서 측정된 FAS의 위상속도는 피질골 두께와 매우 높은 음의 상관관계를 나타냈으며, FAS 이후에 수신되는 SGW의 위상속도는 피질골 두께와 높은 양의 상관관계를 나타냈다. FAS 및 SGW의 위상속도를 독립변수로 하고, 피질골 두께를 종속변수로 하는 단순 및 다중선형회귀모델의 결과로부터 다중선형회귀모델의 결정계수가 단순선형회귀모델의 결정계수보다 높게 나타났다. 또한 12개의 관형 피질골 샘플에 대하여 200 kHz에서 측정된 FAS 및 SGW의 위상속도는 각각 판형 피질골에 대하여 200 kHz에서 계산된 S0 및 A0 램 모드의 위상속도와 잘 일치하였다.

Autogenous bone grafts from the mandibular ramus are a known source of inadequate bone volume scenarios of the residual alveolar ridge. However, the conventional block-type harvesting technique cannot prevent bone marrow invasion, which can cause postoperative complications such as pain, swelling, and inferior alveolar nerve injury. This study aims to suggest a complication-free harvesting technique and present the results of bone grafting and donor sites. One patient received two dental implants with a complication-free harvesting technique that involves creation of ditching holes with a 1 mm round bur. Sagittal, coronal, and axial osteotomies produced grid-type cortical squares using a micro-saw and a round bur to confirm the cortical thickness. The grid-type cortical bone was harvested from the occlusal aspect, and the harvesting was extended through an additional osteotomy on the exposed and remaining cortical bone to prevent bone marrow invasion. The patient did not suffer postoperative severe pain, swelling, or numbness. After 15 months, the harvested site exhibited new cortical bone lining, and the grafted area had healed to a cortico-cancellous complex with functional loading of the implants. Our technique, grid-type cortical bone harvesting without bone marrow invasion, allowed application of autogenous bone without bone marrow invasion to achieve acceptable bone healing of the dental implants and to regenerate the harvested cortical bone.

본 연구의 목적은 생체 외 조건의 소 대퇴골에서 피질골이 해면질골의 음속(SOS) 및 광대역 초음파 감쇠(nBUA)와 같은 음향특성에 미치는 효과를 조사하는 것이다. 이를 위해 2개의 소 대퇴골을 이용하여 근위부로부터 12개의 해면질골 샘플 및 1.00, 1.47, 및 2.00 mm의 두께를 갖는 3개의 피질골 판을 제작하였다. 또한 해면질골 샘플에 피질골 판 부착 전후 측정된 음향특성과 해면질골 겉보기 골밀도 사이의 상관관계를 조사하였다. 해면질골 샘플의 초음파 입사면에 부착된 피질골 판의 두께가 증가함에 따라 SOS는 선형적으로 증가하는 반면에 nBUA는 피질골 판의 두께에 대해 비선형적인 의존성을 나타내는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 서로 다른 두께를 갖는 피질골 판이 부착되더라도 SOS(r = 0.95-0.97) 및 nBUA(r = 0.53-0.73)와 해면질골 겉보기 골밀도 사이의 높은 상관관계는 유지되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이와 같은 결과는 생체 외 조건의 피질골이 제거되지 않은 대퇴골에서 측정된 음향특성이 해면질골의 골밀도를 예측하기에 충분한 지표라는 것을 의미한다.

Recently, the clinical applications of the autogenous cancellous bone from the proximal tibial metaphysis show satisfactory results in the repair of maxillofacial bony defect or deformity. The proximal tibia has the potential to yield viable cancellous bone with a minimum of morbidity. The purpose of this study was to investigate the regeneration of a full thickness proximal tibial bone defect with covering or uncovering of cortical bone. The follow-up periods were 4, 8, and 12 weeks. Bone defect of right side was uncovered and left side was covered with cortical bone. In the experimental group (uncovered cortical bone) at 12 weeks, the inside of defect was filled to normal marrow tissue. The cortical bone defect was united of inner, outer callus at 4, 8 weeks in both study group. At 12 weeks, the cortical bone defect was remodeled and invaded by osteoclast (giant cell) in experimental group. In the experimental specimen at 12 weeks, the regenerating tissue of bone defect was not differ from the control group.

Recently, mini-implant is popular in the orthodontic treatment due to its simplicity and convenient surgical procedure. The objective of this study is to provide the anatomical guideline for mini-implant placement by analysing the cortical bone thickness in Korean. Hemi-sections of sixteen maxillae and twenty-two mandibles with normal teeth were used. Interdental areas between the 1st premolar and the 2nd premolar (Group 1), the 2nd premolar and the 1st molar (Gruop 2), and the 1st molar and the 2nd molar (Group 3) were sectioned and then scanned. After setting the axis of teeth, the cortical bone thickness was measured at the distance of 2 mm, 4mm, 6 mm, and 8 mm from alveolar crest. The mean thickness of cortical bone in the maxilla according to distance from alveolar crest was $1.30\;{\pm}\;0.63\; mm$ (2 mm), $1.49\;{\pm}\;0.62\; mm$ (4mm), $1.72\;{\pm}\;0.64\; mm$ (6mm), and $1.90\;{\pm}\;0.90\; mm$ (8 mm) at the buccal side and $1.33\;{\pm}\;0.47 \;mm$, $1.31\;{\pm}\;0.45\; mm$, $1.37\;{\pm}\;0.55\; mm$, and $1.39\;{\pm}\;0.58 \;mm$ at the palatal side. In the mandible, that was $3.14\;{\pm}\;1.71 \;mm$, $4.31\;{\pm}\;2.22 \;mm$, $4.23\;{\pm}\;1.94 \;mm$, and $4.30\;{\pm}\;1.57\; mm$ at the buccal side and $1.98\;{\pm}\;0.88 \;mm$, $2.79\;{\pm}\;1.01\; mm$, $3.35\;{\pm}\;1.27$ mm, and $3.93\;{\pm}\;1.38\; mm$ at the lingual side. The buccal cortical bone thickness in the maxilla was decreased from Group 1 to Group 3, while the thickness of palatal side was no change. In the mandible, it did not show a tendency at the buccal side and it was decreased from Group 1 to Group 3 without significant difference at the lingual side. Therefore, the buccal side of the Group 1 and Group 2 in both the maxilla and mandible seems to be the most appropriate site for a mini-implant placement with taking the stability and retention.

In performing implant procedures in the anterior portion of the maxilla, many difficulties exist because of anatomical reasons, such as the proximity of the nasal floor, lateral extension of the incisive canal, and labial concavity. On the other hand, in the posterior region of the maxilla, there is often insufficient recipient bone between the maxillary sinus and alveolar ridge due to alveolar ridge resorption and pneumatization of the maxillary sinus. In order to perform implants in such regions, ridge augmentation procedures such as onlay bone graft, guided bone regeneration, and maxillary sinus grafting are performed. In studies of Caucasians, use of autograft from mandibular symphysis has been reported to be highly successful in maxillary sinus grafting. However, in a clinical study of Koreans, autograft of mandibular symphysis has been reported to have significantly low success rate. It has been hypothesized that this is because of insufficient cancellous bone due to thick cortical bone. In order to test this hypothesis, bone quality and morphology of Koreans can be compared with those of Caucasians. In this study, the bone density and morphology of the cortical bone and cancellous bone in the mandibular symphysis of 35 Korean cadavers were evaluated. The following results were obtained: 1. In terms of bone density, type I, type II, and type III consisted of 1.4%(3/213), 72.3%(154/213), and 26.3%(56/213) of the cross-sectioned specimens, respectively. In general, the bone density tended to change from type II to type III, as cross-sectioned specimens were evaluated from the midline to the canine. Type IV wasn't observed in this study. 2. The distance between the root apex and the lower border of the cancellous bone was 18.34mm-20.59mm. Considering that the bone has to be cut 5mm below the root apex during the procedure, autografts with about 15mm of vertical thickness can be obtained. 3. The thickness of cortical bone on the labial side increased from the root apex to the lower border of the mandible. The average values ranged from 1.43mm to 2.36mm. 4. The labio-lingual thickness of cancellous bone ranged from 3.43mm to 6.51mm. The thickness tended to increase from the apex to the lower border of the mandible and decrease around the lower border of cancellous bone. From the above results, the anatomic factors of the mandibular symphysis (bone density, thickness, quantity and length of the cortical bone and cancellous bone) didn't show any difference from Caucasians, and it cannot be viewed as the cause of failure in autografts in the maxillary sinus for implants.

Objective: To evaluate the changes in cortical bone thickness, alveolar bone height, and the incidence of dehiscence and fenestration in the surrounding alveolar bone of posterior teeth after rapid maxillary expansion (RME) treatment using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods: The CBCT records of 20 subjects (9 boys, mean age: $13.97{\pm}1.17$ years; 11 girls, mean age: $13.53{\pm}2.12$ year) that underwent RME were selected from the archives. CBCT scans had been taken before (T1) and after (T2) the RME. Moreover, 10 of the subjects had 6-month retention (T3) records. We used the CBCT data to evaluate the buccal and palatal aspects of the canines, first and second premolars, and the first molars at 3 vertical levels. The cortical bone thickness and alveolar bone height at T1 and T2 were evaluated with the paired-samples t-test or the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Repeated measure ANOVA or the Friedman test was used to evaluate the statistical significance at T1, T2, and T3. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05. Results: The buccal cortical bone thickness decreased gradually from baseline to the end of the retention period. After expansion, the buccal alveolar bone height was reduced significantly; however, this change was not statistically significant after the 6-month retention period. During the course of the treatment, the incidence of dehiscence and fenestration increased and decreased, respectively. Conclusions: RME may have detrimental effects on the supporting alveolar bone, since the thickness and height of the buccal alveolar bone decreased during the retention period.

Osteoporosis has recently been recognized as a major health problem in the elderly population. The disorder is manifested as a loss of bone mass accompanied by structural alteration of bone and increased incidence of fracture. Mandible also may be affected. So, I evaluated panoramic views of 66 postmenopausal women for finding the possibility of useful diagnostic mandibular parmeters of osteoporosis. To know the correlationship between skeleton and mandible, the average of the bone mineral density of lumbar from 2nd to 4th by the dual energy X-ray absorptiometry(DEXA, LUNAR DPZ. USA), and age and mandibular parameters, that is, the number of residual teeth, alveolar ridge resorption ratio, panoramic mandibular index (PMI), mandibular cortical width (MCW), angular cortical thickness (ACT), ramus cortical thickness (RCT), morphology of mandibular inferior cortical (MIC) were compared. And I divided the all tested women to the osteoporotic group and non-osteoporotic group by the use of T-score -2.0, which was derived from skeletal bone mineral density (BMD). To find the correlationship of the each group with mandibular parameters, t-test and discriminant analysis were done. The results of the t-test were that all parameters were highly related with 2 groups (p<0.05). Especially ACT, MIC, age have had even higher correlationship than others (p<0.001). The results of the discriminant analysis by the use of these ACT, MIC and age were that the discriminant function was Z = -2.973+(-1.447)$\times$(ACT)+1.131$\times$(MIC score)+(0.052)$\times$(age), the cutting score was 0.257 and the classification accuracy was 84.8%. Therefore I suggest that the consideration of the angular cortical thickness (ACT), the age of patient and the morphology of mandibular inferior cortical(MIC) may help find the osteoporosis.

Purpose: The purpose of this research was to study bone changes after bilateral sagittal split osteotomy through fractal analysis and measurement of mandibular cortical thickness. Materials and Methods: This study included twenty-two prognathic patients who underwent bilateral sagittal split osteotomy. Panoramic radiographs of these patients were taken immediately before operation and at 1 month, 6 months, and 12 months postoperatively. The fractal dimension was measured by the box-counting method in the region of interest centered on both the basal and interdental bones between the first and second mandibular molars. Measurements of mandibular cortical thickness were taken both in the area between the first and second mandibular molars and at the osteotomy site. Changes of fractal dimension and cortical thickness over four stages were statistically analyzed. Results: The fractal dimension of the mandibular basal bone before surgery and after 1 month, 6 months and 12 months were $1.4099{\pm}0.0657,\;1.382{\pm}0.0595,\;1.2995{\pm}0.0949,\;and\;1.4166{\pm}0.0676$, respectively (Repeated-measures ANOVA, P<0.001). However, no statistically significant differences were noted in interdental fractal dimensions among the four stages. Mandibular cortical thickness between the first and second mandibular molars before operation and after 1 month, 6 months and 12 months was $3.74{\pm}0.48mm,\;3.63{\pm}0.47mm,\;3.41{\pm}0.61mm\;and\;3.55{\pm}0.66mm$ (P<0.01), respectively. Mandibular cortical thickness at the osteotomy site at each of the four stages was $3.22{\pm}0.44mm,\;2.87{\pm}0.59mm,\;2.37{\pm}0.61mm\;and\;2.64{\pm}0.62mm$, respectively (P<0.001). Conclusion: This study suggests that the mandibular tissue continued decreasing for 6 months postoperatively and then increased over the subsequent 6 months.
