Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether the presence of a space maintainer affects the accuracy of an intraoral scanner. Materials and Methods: The maxillary primary first molar typodont tooth was removed from the primary dentition typodont model and a band and loop type space maintainer was delivered. After the model was connected to a dental phantom, intraoral scan was performed using TRIOS 4 (3Shape A/S, Copenhagen, Denmark). The scan was repeated with the same technique without the space maintainer. Each scan was performed 10 times. All scan files into a GOM inspect 2018 software and evaluated the accuracy. The accuracy was evaluated on trueness and precision, and calculated using the root mean square value. Result: When there was a space maintainer in the oral cavity, the trueness value was 0.10±0.02 mm and the precision value was 0.15±0.03 mm. In the absence of the space maintainer, the trueness value was 0.12±0.03 mm and the precision value was 0.16±0.04 mm. There were no significant differences depending on the presence of a space maintainer (P>0.05). Conclusion: Within the limits of this study, the accuracy of the intraoral scanner was not influenced by the presence of space maintainer.

Early interceptive orthodontic interventions are often started in the developing dentition to guide normal occlusion. The simplest way to prevent eruption failure from deciduous tooth loss is to fix a space maintainer such as a band and loop. Band and loop space maintainer has several problems like cement loss, demineralization, locking of the adjacent tooth, and needs to take a pickup impression of the band. Computer-assisted design/computer-assisted manufacturing (CAD/CAM) space maintainer without band was developed to solve these problems. This case report describes successful eruption of the mandibular second premolar using CAD/CAM without a band.

Space maintainers needs following extraction of primary molars, due to severe dental caries under general anesthesia. Delivery of conventional space maintainers has three of the disadvantages of the method, there being a impression taking and time consuming due to laboratory procedure, and delivery problem due to relaxed tongue. For this problem improved, modified space maintainer is prefabricated before procedure, and adjust, delivery in operation room, favorable results were obtained. The following results were obtained. 1. Delivery time is very reduced than conventional space maintainers. 2. After space maintainer delivery, follow check-up, without impingement of soft tissue, distortion of wire. After space maintainer delivery, continuous research is required so that space maintainer delivery is applied to usual dental treatment, and it is necessary of long term research.

Electromyographic studies were performed on the action of the masseter muscles. Among the children aged from 6 to 8 years, ten children with normal occlusion and another ten with space maintainer were selected. The children were divided into 3 groups. They were: 1) A group: Children who removed space maintainer 2) B group: Children who inserted space maintainer 3) C group: Children with normal occlusion. The electromyogram was recorded with 4 channel polygraph. (Grass model VII) Electrodes which were cup-typed gold disks, 9 millimeters in the diameter, were located on the superficial layer of masseter muscles. The electromyogram was recorded in the physiologic rest position, molar occlusion, chewing movement, protraction, left lateral movement, and right lateral movement. The conclusions were as follows. 1. In the physiologic rest position, lateral movement, the electrical potentials of the masseter muscles were not changed clearly in each groups. 2. In molar occlusion, chewing movement, The electrical potentials of the masseter muscles of the B group were almost 10% higher than those of A group, and were almost 60-70% in comparision with C group. 3. In protraction, the electrical potentials of the masseter muscles of the B group were almost 40% higher than those of A group, and were almost equal to C group. 4. The electrical activities of the masseter muscles in the mandibular movements were in the following order: (1) Molar occlusion (2) Chewing movement (3) Protraction (4) Lateral movement.

To analyze the linkage relationships among molecular markers recently reported to be linked to onion (Allium cepa L.) Ms, a restorer-of-fertility locus, in onion (Allium cepa L.), three single nucleotide polymorphism markers were converted into cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (CAPS) markers based on onion transcriptome sequences and the rice genome database. Analysis of the recombinants selected from 4,273 segregating plants using CAPS and other linked markers demonstrated the jnurf13 and jnurf610 markers to perfectly co-segregate with the Ms locus. In contrast to jnurf13, the jnurf610 marker was not in perfect linkage disequilibrium with the Ms locus in diverse breeding lines. Thus, the jnurf13 marker and the marker for identification of cytoplasm types were utilized to enhance the efficiency of onion breeding through four applications. First, 89 maintainer lines containing the normal cytoplasm and homozygous recessive Ms genotypes were successfully identified from 100 breeding lines. Second, these two molecular markers were used to analyze the main sources of male-fertile contaminants frequently found in the male-sterile parental lines during F1 hybrid seed production. The majority of the contaminants contained heterozygous Ms genotypes, indicating that pollen grains harboring the dominant Ms genotype may have been introduced during propagation of the maintainer lines. Therefore, the genetic purity of the two maintainer lines was analyzed in the third application, and the results showed that both maintainer lines contained 13-21% off-types. Finally, the two markers were used to increase the seed yield potentials of two open-pollinated varieties containing sterile cytoplasms by removing the plants harboring homozygous recessive and heterozygous Ms genotypes.

The author observed the changes of dental arch dimensions and compared spae-maintainer group with non-space-maintainer group after primary tooth extraction. The results were as follows 1) The rate of growth of dental arch of expeirmental group in intercanine width and in inter-1st molar width was more rapid than that of the control group. 2) Arch length is almost no dimensions but it was slightly decreased in lower arch. 3) Dental arch growth and tooth eruption were stimulated by space-maintainer appliance, so it is the best way to replace a new appliance at least once a year. 4) It is thought that satisfactory conclusions in this observation must be researched successively until the mixed dentition completes.

A $F_1$ hybrid out of 143 crosses of rape (Brassica napus) using cytoplasmic-genetic male sterility yielded 5.18 tons per hectare. European and native varieties used, were found out to have 78% and 58% of genes restoring fertility, respectively. The $F_1$ hybrids of three way cross using non-isogenic maintainer showed higher heteroses than those of double cross. To produce F 1 hybrids of three way cross, three stages of crossing operations are needed and seeds produced from about 60 hectares can be covered to 60, 000 hectares.

When the type and ratio of male-sterile plants in $F_1$ hybrids collected from several seed companies were investigated, there were differences in the male-sterile type depending upon region, seed company and variety group. The differences were inferred due to the easiness in breeding of maintainer line among the variety groups. American seed companies mainly used petaloid type male sterility with Imperater group varieties. European companies used brown anther type male sterility mainly with Nantes group but some companies used petaloid type also in varieties that were different from Nantes group. Asian companies (Japan, Korea) used both types with Chantaney and Kuroda group varieties, but one type was mainly used depending on individual seed company. Only one type of male-sterility in one variety was observed and the results were agreed well with other's results that male-sterility type was determined by cytoplasm factor. Some breeding lines were backcrossed to both types of cytoplasm (Sa, Sp) for maintainer line selection. We could select 15 maintainer lines from 20 lines in petaloid cytoplasm (Sp) and 3 from 4 lines in brown cytoplasm (Sa). In petaloid cytoplasm, maintainer lines can be selected at considerably high frequency. But in brown anther cytoplasm, the used materials are too restricted to tell general frequency maintainer lines.
