  • Purpose: Length measurement from maxillary anterior teeth root tip to nasal floor is incorrect in panoramic radiography. Comparison of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and panoramic radiography should be helpful in determining the vertical length. Methods: Sixty nine patients were taken CBCT and panoramic radiography of the maxillary anterior. First measurement is length of parallel lines from the central incisor and lateral incisor root tip to nasal floor on CBCT. Second measurement is length of perpendicular lines from the central incisor and lateral incisor root tip to nasal floor on CBCT. Third measurement is length from the central incisor and lateral incisor root tip to nasal floor on panoramic radiographys. Results: In the first measurement of the maxillary central incisors, an average of $11.36{\pm}2.49$ mm in males and $10.49{\pm}2.17$ mm in females. In the second measurement of the maxillary central incisors, $10.41{\pm}2.42$ mm in males and $9.18{\pm}2.08$ mm in females. In the third measurement of the maxillary central incisors, $10.71{\pm}2.20$ mm in males and $9.27{\pm}2.10$ mm in females. In the first measurement of the maxillary lateral incisors, an average of $13.40{\pm}2.04$ mm in males and $11.96{\pm}2.20$ mm in females. In the second measurement of the maxillary lateral incisors, $11.25{\pm}1.82$ mm in males and $10.06{\pm}1.68$ mm in females. In the third measurement of the maxillary lateral incisors, $11.47{\pm}2.01$ mm in males and $10.13{\pm}1.70$ mm in females. Conclusion: The vertical length from root tip to nasal floor was longer in male than female (P>0.05). First measurement was longer than third measurement (P<0.05). This is the actual placement of the implant site measured on the vertical length than the length of the panorama means that there are a few more free. The first measurement was longer than 114% over the third measurement.

  • The purpose of this study was to find the clinical features of periapical lesions. A total of 130 periapical lesions which were obtained from biopsy and diagnosed histopathologically as periapical cyst, periapical abscess, and periapical granuloma at the Department of Dentistry in Hanyang University Hospital were throughly analysed according to the distribution and incidence of age, sex, location, and so on. The following results were obtained : 1. Out of 130 periapical lesions, 88 cases(67.7%) were periapical cysts, 30 cases(23.1%) were periapical abscesses, and 12 cases(9.2%) were periapical granulomas. 2. The periapical lesions occurred most frequently in the third decade, and followed by the fourth, fifth, sixth, and second decade. The periapical cysts occurred most frequently in the third decade(26.1%), the periapical granulomas in the fourth decade(33.3%) the periapical abscesses in the sixth decade(26.7%). 3. The periapical lesions were more frequent in men than in women with the ratio of men to women of 1.4 : 1. The radio of men to women of periapical cysts was 1.6 : 1, that of periapical granulomas was 0.5 : 1, and that of periapical abscesses was 1.3 : 1. 4. The periapical lesions were more frequent in maxilla than in mandible with the ratio of 1.2 : 1. The ratio of maxilla to mandible of periapical cysts was 1.5 : 1, that of periapical granulomas was 0.5 : 1, that of periapical abscesses was 1 : 1. 5. The most commonly involved location of the periapical lesions was maxillary anterior teeth(40.8%), and followed by mandibular molars, mandibular premolars, and mandibular anterior teeth and maxillary molars. The most frequent location of the periapical cysts was maxillary anterior teeth(48.9%), that of periapical granulomas was mandibular molars(50.0%), that of periapical abscesses was mandibular molars(40.0%).

  • An esthetically pleasing result in denture service is dependent upon several consideration. Esthetic considerations for the edentulous patient include tooth size, shape, arrangement, positioning, gingival contour, age, sex, personality differences, and ethnic type. Especially, the form of anterior artificial teeth is an important factor on the esthetics. The selection of artificaial teeth requires understanding and knowledge on physical and biologic factors and has to meet the indivisul esthetics and functional needs of each patient. However, the selection of artificial teeth is based on the large degree of subjective judgement of the dentist, Therefore, this is one of the most unscientific processes. Many attempts have been made to find a guideline for the selection of artificial teeth. Temperamental theory by White and Hall utillized with the physical characteristics such as body size, body form, color of eyes and hair, and disposition. SPA theory by Frush and Fisher utilized with the basis of sex, personalities, and age of the indivisual. There has not been provided for a guideline and study on the selection of artificial teeth for Koreans yet. This study was aimed to evaluate the William's typal matching theory in Koreans. 1. The facial forms of korean adult were ovoid(46.3%), square(36.7%) and tapered(17.0%) form. 2. The anatomic forms of natural maxillary incisors were ovoid(45.3%), tapered(31.3%), square(23.3%) form. 3. The forms of face and natural maxillary incisors were ovoid(21.9%), squared(11%), tapered(6.3%). 4. The natural maxillary incisors were similar in form to the facial form only in 39%. There was no correlation between the form of the face and the form of natural maxillary central inisors in Koreans. 5. Artificaial teeth which was selected according to the typal matching theory did not represent the form of the natural teeth in 61 per cents of the fatal, but it felt that they harmonized with the form of the patient's face and produced good results.

  • Even the adult cleft lip and palate patient who has not had timely treatment during the growth period, can be treated with orthodontic treatment without the necessity of orthognathic surgery if only the patient is treated under correct diagnosis and fitting appliances. Initially, maxillary arch form is established by constructing trifocal circles. Posterior region can be expanded and derotated laterally with pentahelix and anterior teeth are aligned with Tiggle brackets and "ㄷ"-shaped spring. Thereafter, anterior and posterior regions are consolidated. Mandibular intercanine width should be adjusted to maxillary intercanine width which was unavoidably reduced. Mandibular anterior tooth extraction will be helpful to attain proper mandibular intercanine width and better anterior dental showing.

  • The present report presents a case of dens invaginatus (DI) in a patient with 4 maxillary incisors. A 24-year-old female complained of swelling of the maxillary left anterior region and discoloration of the maxillary left anterior tooth. The maxillary left lateral incisor (tooth #22) showed pulp necrosis and a chronic apical abscess, and a periapical X-ray demonstrated DI on bilateral maxillary central and lateral incisors. All teeth responded to a vitality test, except tooth #22. The anatomic form of tooth #22 was similar to that of tooth #12, and both teeth had lingual pits. In addition, panoramic and periapical X-rays demonstrated root canal calcification, such as pulp stones, in the maxillary canines, first and second premolars, and the mandibular incisors, canines, and first premolars bilaterally. The patient underwent root canal treatment of tooth #22 and non-vital tooth bleaching. After a temporary filling material was removed, the invaginated mass was removed using ultrasonic tips under an operating microscope. The working length was established, and the root canal was enlarged up to #50 apical size and obturated with gutta-percha and AH 26 sealer using the continuous wave of condensation technique. Finally, non-vital bleaching was performed, and the access cavity was filled with composite resin.

  • Purpose : The purpose of this study was to evaluate peri-implant bone loss and implant success on anterior maxillary alveolar ridges and Compare Class III and Class IV ridges in the aspect of peri-implant bone loss. Material and Methods : 14 patients (aged 21 to 68, 6males and 8females), who lacked maxillary anterior teeth and were installed from January 2000 to April 2003 at Samsung Medical Center, were selected. The type of implant used included 30 $Br\ddot{a}nemark$ implant. They were taken with digital tomographic and conventional intraoral radiographic examinmation, and were treated with implant installaion without bone augmentation. The peri-implant bone resorption was measured at the mesial and distal aspect of implant on the conventional intraoral radiographs. Results : The study classified the anterior maxillary alveolar ridge and measured peri-implant bone resorption from the period of implant installation to the 2nd year after functional loading radiographically. The study revealed no statistically significant difference between two groups, which was classified by its morphology. The average bone resorption on healing period before loading was 0.18mm and 0.18mm, the 1st year of loading period, 0.77 mm and 0.84mm, and on the 2nd year of loading period, 0.07mm and 0.06mm, respectively on both Class III and class IV. Conclusion : In the knife edge form of anterior maxillary residual ridges(Class IV), implant placement without ridge augmentation does not have significant difference with that of Class III alveolar ridge in the concern of Implant success after 2 year functional loading period in the aspect of peri-implant bone resorption radiographically.

  • A human bite-mark shows special feature according to the suspect's dentition. The teeth which most frequently give useful bite-marks are six upper and lower anteriors, while the premolar teeth somtimes give marks it is often difficult to distinguish. The author tried to classify and to analize the anterior dentition which makes the bite-mark directly by means of 672 maxillary and 691 mandibular stone model taken from Korean adult aging from 17 to 40 years old. The results were as follows : 1. There was no particular correlation between the presence of six normal-shaped and correctly positioned upper and lower anteriors and the presence of rotation of teeth. 2. Inter central incisor, inter lateral incisor, inter canine width and angles of adjecent teeth were not identical eath other in studied models. 3. The results of this analysis supported the statement that any bite-mark had no same feature.
