  • Certain malocclusion are associated with specific "facial type," and it is important for the clinician to classify the common facial characteristic of each patient. Because the reaction to treatment mechanics and the stability of the denture is depended upon the analysis of the facial pattern. Basically, there are 3 district facial types or patterns under which almost all malocclusion can be classified. 1. mesofacial is the most average growth. 2. brachyfacial which is a horizontal growth pattern has a week muscle, with dental arch, deep bite. 3. dolichofacial which is a vertical growth pattern has a strong muscle, narrow dental arch, open bite. Brachyfacial pattern show a resistant to mandibular rotation during treatment can accept a more protrusive denture and are prominantly nonextraction, whereas dolichofacial patterns tend to open during treatment require a more retracted denture in order to assure post-treatment stability. Brachyfacial pattern would better treat to use extrusive force system, whereas dolichofacial pattern treat to use intrusive force system with head gear and intermaxillary elastics.

A CASE REPORT OF ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT OF ANGLE'S CLASS III MALOCCLUSION BY RAPID MIDPALATAL EXPANSION (정중구개봉합의 급속확대술에 의한 Angle씨 3급부정교합의 교정치험예)

  • The patient, 18-year-old girl, had a class III malocclusion with the lateral compression of the maxilla due to the premature loss of the canines, mild mandibular prognathism, and mouth breathing habit. The treatment plan consisted of 1) rapid maxillary expansion 2) a period of retention 3) extraction of the first mandibular premolars instead of surgical correction 4) completion of orthodontic treatment with multibanded system. The maxilla was separated in the midline by the application of orthopedic forces via a cemented rapid maxillary expansion device. After 18 months, She gained functional overbite-overjet relationship, good interdigitation of buccal segments, and facial harmony due to the retraction of lower anterior teeth.

  • The author used cephalometric roentgenogram to observe the longitudinal change by orthodontic treatment for early class III malocclusion in primary and mixed dentition. First, the cephalometric roentgenograms were measured and following results were obtained 1. SNA, SNB, ANB, Gonial angle, and SN to mandibular plane were measured as skeletal pattern and $\underline{1}$ to SN. $\overline{1}$ to mandibular plane and interincisal angle were measured as denture pattern. 2. Angular measurements for the Class III malocclusion were compared with those for the normal occlusion of the same Hellman dental age.

  • In growing patients with Class III malocclusion and midfacial deficiency, the treatment protocol calls for orthopedic maxillary protraction and clinicians choose the facemask therapy generally. But facemask is not esthetic or comfortable to patients because it should be worn extraorally. Consequently it is difficult to obtain patients cooperation, and this often influences the treatment effects negatively. MTA (modified tandem appliance), that is a small intraoral appliance, is carried conveniently and esthetic relatively. So it seemed more patient-friendly than a facemask. While the treatment effect of this is similar to that of a facemask. This report presents skeletal Class III malocclusion two cases treated by MTA with good results.

  • The author analyzed the morphological pattern of mandibles and lower third molars in order to study and predict the impaction of the developmental third molars. The subjects consisted of 37 males and 87 females with malocclusion. The following results were obtained: 1. The mandible was shown to be shorter in the impacted third molar group than in the erupted group, both in over-all length and in body length. 2. The developmental mesial angulation of the third molar to the mandibular plane was higher in the impacted third molar group. 3. There was a tendency for impacted third molars to be slightly larger than those which erupted except Class II malocclusion in female. 4. In the available space for the eruption of the third molar, significant space deficiency was found in association with the impacted third molar group compared with the erupted group.

  • The purpose of the present study was to investigate the correlations of malocclusion between the mother and the offspring and thus heritable features from mother to her offspring. Dental impression was taken of the both jaws of 73 mothers and their sons and 109 mothers and their daughters, and the measurement was obtained from the models. The correlation coefficient of the mesio-distal diameters of teeth and that of occlusion and arch variable was calculated from the mesurement. After the data was analyzed and estimated, the following results were obtained : 1. It was evident that the tooth size of the offspring was influenced from their mother. 2. It was evident that the occlusion, the arch size and shape of the offspring were influenced from their mother. 3. There was not the marked difference between the heredity of occlusion variable and arch variable on the mother-offspring relationship. 4. The correlation of the lower intercanine width and the lower available space discrepancy between the mother and the offspring were greatly influenced with the environmental factor.

  • A girl aged 13 years 1 month, had a Angle's Class 1 malocclusion, characterized by severe aterior crowding, high canine, and loss of the upper and lower left first molars on account of dental caries. This patient underwent ${\frac{4}{4}}$extraction and multibonded system was used. After 20 Months, anterior crowding and high canine was corrected, and the extraction space as closed on both arch. The upper and lower left 2nd molars occupied the first molar spaces instead of the first polars. After 6 Months from debanding, band spaces were disappeared and the third molars were upting normally.
