Tooth is the most important element in esthetic consideration on facial area. Tooth alignment which is in harmony with gingiva, lips, and face is also key element. The purpose of this study was to give a clinical discipline for restoration of gingival contour, which contains a ratio of maxillary 6 anterior teeth, research for gingival contour etc., in case of rehabilitation of maxillary anterior teeth. 300 Dankook university dental school students ,who is their twenties and free from periodontitis, participate in this study. The result was from each 70 males and females who had normal occlusion and tooth alignment. Length, width and length/width ratio of maxillary 6 anterior teeth were 0.74-0.81 in male, 0.81-0.84 in female. There was significant difference between male and female. The most deepest position of gingiva in maxillary central incisor and canine was located in distal part of teeth and maxillary lateral incisor was middle portion. In maxillary central incisors, gingival line of the most deepest point appeared significant difference between male and female (p<0.01) whereas there was no difference in lateral incisors and canines. Distance between interdental papilla apex and the most deepest portion appeared significant difference between male and female. Distance of the deepest position of gingiva is statistically significant except maxillary central incisors and lateral incisors. Standard deviation and mean of the width of labio-lingual were measured in cervical area and there was a significant difference both male and female.(p<0.01) From this result, we could get the mean of maxillary anterior gingival line and these results have great value in clinical guidance in studying maxillary anterior teeth.

Maxillary lateral incisors usually exhibit a single root with a single canal. However, maxillary lateral incisor teeth with unusual morphology of root canal system are frequently reported. These cases of variable root canal anatomy can be treated well by nonsurgical endodontic methods. A detailed description of root canal morphology is fundamental for successful endodontic treatment. Treatment using an operating microscope, radiographs from different angles, and cone-beam computerized tomography (CBCT) can produce more predictable endodontic outcomes.

Keratinized ginigva has clinical singificance in periodontal health because it plays important roles in resistance to mechanical trauma, to penetration of bacteria, and to tensional stress by muscle attachment. In order to investigate the width change of anterior keratinized gingvial during transitional period, the width of kerainized gingiva on anterior teeth was measured annually in elementary school children with deciduous dentition until the successive anterior teeth were completely erupted. The distance from the gingival margin on mid-portion of crown to mucogingival junction was measured by Boley gauge(Hu-Friedy, U.S.A.) and was recorded as the width of keratinized gingiva. The difference of the width of keratinized gingiva according to sex and dentition was analyzed statistically by Student t-test. Following results were obtained : 1. In deciduous dentition, it was shown that the width of keratinized gingiva on maxillary central incisors($3.28{\pm}0.83mm$) was the widest(p<0.01), and that on maxillary lateral incisors, mandibular central and lateral incisors was $2.69{\pm}0.86mm$, $2.51{\pm}0.71mm$, $2.43{\pm}0.68mm$, respectively. 2. In mixed dentition, it was shown that the width of keratinized gingiva on maxillary central incisors ($5.10{\pm}0.86$) was the widest(p<0.01), and that on maxillary lateral incisors, mandibular central and lateral incisors was $4.35{\pm}0.83mm$, $3.51{\pm}0.60mm$, $3.57{\pm}0.66mm$, respectively. 3. The width of anterior keratinized gingiva was significantly increased after the successive anterior teeth were completely erupted(p<0.001). The width of keratinized gingiva on maxillary central and lateral incisors, and mandibular central and lateral incisors was increased by $1.82{\pm}0.83mm$, $1.65{\pm}0.69mm$, $0.99{\pm}0.39mm$, and $1.14{\pm}0.98mm$, respectively. 4. There was no statistical significance in the difference of the width of anterior keratinized gingiva between male and female(p>0.05).

이 연구의 목적은 분광광도계인 VITA Easyshade^®V를 이용하여 상악 유중절치, 유측절치, 유견치의 색조와 다양한 복합레진들의 색조를 비교하는 것이다. 한 명의 연구자가 1세에서 6세 어린이 100명의 건전한 상악 유전치부와 총 10개의 종류, 31개의 shade를 가진 복합레진들로 만든 시편의 색조들을 측정하였고, CIE L^*, a^*, b^* 값이 얻어졌다. 상악 유중절치와 유측절치는 임상적으로 인식 가능한 색조 차이를 보이지 않았다. 그러나 상악 유견치는 상악 유중절치 및 유측절치와 임상적인 인식도 역치 이상의 색조 차이를 보였다. 남녀 간의 유의한 색조 차이는 없었고, 연령에 따른 유의한 색조 변화도 없었다. A1 shade가 모든 상악 유전치부에서 가장 많이 나타났다. 상악 유전치부의 색조와 유사하다고 판단되는 복합레진으로 상악 유중절치에서 9종, 유측절치에서 6종, 유견치에서 6종이 선정되었다.

Purpose: The pulp length to width (PL/W) ratio of the maxillary lateral incisor can be used as an age determination method. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between the PL/W ratio of the maxillary lateral incisor on panoramic radiographs and human chronological age in Indonesian subjects. Materials and Methods: This study analyzed with 134 maxillary lateral incisors on 113 panoramic radiographs from patients who visited the Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology Unit of Dental Hospital Universitas Padjadjaran, Bandung, Jawa Barat, Indonesia, from 2013 to 2018 (age range: between 11 to 60 years). The pulp length was measured from the pulp chamber roof to the apical foramen, and the pulp width was measured on the cervical area of the cementoenamel junction in millimeters using Fiji ImageJ open-source software. Simple linear regression (in SPSS) was used to analyze the results. The reliability of the observers was evaluated. Results: The PL/W ratio of the maxillary lateral incisor was significantly correlated with chronological age (P<0.01). No statistically significant difference was found in the PL/W ratio between the left and right maxillary lateral incisors(P=0.333). There was a very strong correlation (r=0.939) between the PL/W ratio of the maxillary lateral incisor and human chronological age, with the following formula: age= -3.057+1.875×PL/W ratio (R²=0.882, standard error of estimate: 4.659). Conclusion: The PL/W ratio of the maxillary lateral incisor on panoramic radiograph can be used for age determination in Indonesian subjects.

치은 정점이란 임상치관의 변연치은에서 가장 치근측인 지점을 말한다. 본 연구는 젊은 연령대의 한국 성인을 대상으로 상악 전치부에서 치은 정점의 근원심적, 수직적 위치를 수치화하려 하였다. 남성 25명, 여성 25명의 건강한 치주 조직을 갖는 평균나이 28.8세의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 진단모형 상에서 치은 정점이 치아의 수직이등분선으로부터 근원심적으로 떨어져 있는 양을 측정하였다. 또한 측절치의 치은 정점이 중절치와 견치의 치은 정점을 연결하는 선으로부터 수직적으로 떨어져 있는 양을 측정하였다. 연구 결과 상악 중절치와 측절치의 치은 정점은 임상치관의 수직이등분선으로부터 원심에 위치하며 견치에서는 근원심적으로 같은 위치에 있는 경향이 있었다. 원심 위치의 빈도와 양은 중절치, 측절치, 견치 순으로 전방에 있는 치아일수록 컸다. 상악 측절치의 치은 정점은 중절치와 견치의 치은 정점을 연결하는 선으로부터 평균적으로 $0.73{\pm}0.43$ mm 치관측으로 위치하는 것으로 나타났다.

The original sample in this investigation included 36 children around the age of eight (mean age:8 year-lmonth) at the beginning. Study casts were obtained and measured every 6 months in two years of longitudinal study period in order to observe the changes of maxillary dental arch as well as the eruptional status of the maxillary lateral incisors. The results were as follows.: 1) The length of upper dental arch was increased gradually during the examination period. 2) The width between maxillary first molars was increased gradually during the examination period. 3) Intercanine distance in upper dental arch was increased gradually and the increment was conspicuous immediately after the eruption of maxillary lateral incisors.

Objectives: Management of a horizontal root fracture of an anterior teeth is challenging and often requires multiple approaches for improving the functional and esthetic outcomes. This case report describes the treatment and 2-yr follow up of 3 maxillary incisors with horizontal root fracture. Two maxillary central incisors were treated with Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (ProRoot MTA, Dentsply, Tulsa, OK, USA). Left maxillary lateral incisors were treated with endodontic treatment and submerged. During 2-yr of follow-up evaluation, the root-fractured teeth of the present patients were well retained in the arch, showing periodontal healing even after endodontic treatment.

This article describes the orthodontic treatment of a 25-year-old Korean female patient with anterior crowding, including palatally displaced lateral incisors. Her facial profile was satisfactory, but 3.5 mm of maxillary anterior crowding was observed. To correct this crowding, we decided to minimize the use of the conventional fixed orthodontic appliances and employed a less bulky and more aesthetic appliance for applying light continuous force. We determined the final positions of the maxillary teeth via a working model for diagnostic set up and achieved space gaining and alignment with simple Ni-Ti spring and stainless steel round tubes. Tooth alignment was achieved efficiently and aesthetically without the conventional brackets.
