Among human body parts, the human face has been studied the most actively for the interlace between humans and computers because face has statistic consistency in color, shape and texture. Those characteristics make computers detect and track human faces in images robustly and accurately. The human face consists of eyes, nose, mouth, eyebrows and other features, Detecting and tracking each feature have been researched. The open mouth is the largest in size and the easiest to detect among them, In this study, we present a system which can move mouse pointer using the position and state of the mouth.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to evaluate the possibility of substitution of the zonography for the full-mouth periapical radiography in aspect of radiation protection. Materials and Methods: Rando phantom and LiF TLD chips were used for dosimetry. The absorbed doses at brain, skin above the TMJ. parotid gland. bone marrow in the mandibular body. and thyroid gland during the full-mouth periapical radiography. panoramic radiography. and zonography were measured. Resul ts: From the zonography. the absorbed doses to the brain. the skin over the TMJ. and the parotid gland were relatively high. but the absorbed doses to the bone marrow in the mandibular body and. especially. the thyroid gland were very low. Conclusion: The zonography can be an alternative to the full-mouth periapical radiography in aspect of radiation protection.

Burning Mouth Syndrome (BMS) is defined as a chronic orofacial pain syndrome, without evidence of mucosal lesions and other clinical signs of disease or laboratory abnormalities. Patients with BMS complain of burning pain in the mouth, xerostomia and taste disturbances. It is more common among women and the median age of occurrence is about 60 years. BMS may be primary or secondary to other diseases. The mainstay in the treatment of BMS includes antidepressants, benzodiazepines, and anticonvulsants. A few cases of BMS caused due to medication have been reported. The causative drugs include angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, anticoagulants, antipsychotics, antiretrovirals, and benzodiazepines. This is a case report of a patient on antidepressants who developed symptoms of BMS thereby causing a dilemma in management.

Background: This case report discusses the unusual presentation of limited mouth opening as a result of bilateral coronoid process hyperplasia. Case presentation: A 14.5-year-old male patient of white Caucasian ethnicity presented with limited mouth opening, mandibular asymmetry, and dental crowding. Investigations confirmed bilateral coronoid process hyperplasia and management involved bilateral intraoral coronoidectomy surgery under general anaesthesia, followed by muscular rehabilitation. Mouth opening was restored to average maximum opening within 4 months of surgery. Conclusion: Limited mouth opening is a common presentation to medical and dental professionals. The rare but feasible diagnosis of coronoid impingement syndrome should not be overlooked.

This study aimed to look into the features of the hair beauty service components and the effects of these elements on customer satisfaction and word-of-mouth intention. Subjects were 20's-40's women and survey methods such as frequency analysis, t-test, ANOVA, factor analysis, reliability analysis, and regression analysis were used. Results were as follows: First, hair beauty service were composed of eight factors such as facilities of hair beauty salon, employee's kindness, amusement facilities, light refreshments, guidance to a process of hair style, keeping service for personal belongings, reservation service, and customer management. Second, the effects on customer satisfaction was significantly affected by facilities of hair beauty salon, employee's kindness, guidance to a process of hair style, customer management, keeping service for personal belongings, light refreshments. Third, customer satisfaction with hair beauty service affected the word-of-mouth intention.

Lipoma is one of the most common benign tumors in the human body. However, they are uncommon in the oral cavity. Oral lipomas can occur on the cheeks, tongue, lips, gums and rarely on the floor of the mouth. Clinical symptoms are usually asymptomatic yellow masses. Sometimes the tumor grows and can have difficulty speaking and mastication. The treatment of lipoma is surgical excision, and recurrence is rare. We present a case of oral lipoma in an unusal location on the floor of mouth which is rare in the literature.

With the development of IT technology and smart devices, various applications utilizing image information are being developed. In order to provide an intuitive interface for pronunciation recognition, there is a growing need for research on pronunciation recognition using mouth feature values. In this paper, we propose a system to distinguish Korean vowel pronunciations by detecting feature points of lips region in images and applying Bayesian based learning model. The proposed system implements the recognition system based on Bayes' theorem, so that it is possible to improve the accuracy of speech recognition by accumulating input data regardless of whether it is speaker independent or dependent on small amount of learning data. Experimental results show that it is possible to effectively distinguish Korean vowels as a result of applying probability based Bayesian classification using only visual information such as mouth shape features.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to measure the absorbed dose and to calculate the effective dose for full-mouth periapical radiography using the portable dental x-ray machine and panoramic radiography Material and Method: Thermoluminescent chips were placed at 25sites throughout the layers of the head and neck of a tissue-equivalent human skull phantom. The man phantom was exposed with the portable dental x-ray machine and panoramic unit. During full-mouth periapical radiography the exposure setting was 60 kVp, 2 mA and 0.15 ~ 0.25 seconds, while during panoramic radiography the selected exposure setting was 72 kVp, 8 mA and 18 seconds. Absorbed dose measurements were obtained and equivalent doses to individual organs were summed using ICRP 103 to calculate of effective dose. Result: In the full-mouth periapical radiography, the highest absorbed dose was recorded at the mandible body follow with submandibular glands and cheek. Using panoramic unit, the highest absorbed dose was parotid glands and the following was back of neck and submandibular glands. The effective dose in full-mouth periapical radiography using portable dental x-ray machine was 46 ${\mu}Sv$. In panoramic radiography, the effective dose was 38 ${\mu}pSv$. Conclusion: It was recommended to panoramic radiography for general check in the head and neck area because that the effect dose in the panoramic radiography was lower than the dose in the full-mouth periapical radiography using portable dental x-ray machine.

This study proposes a research model that examines the impact of perceived technological innovativeness on curiosity and fun, which influence revisit and word-of-mouth intentions for an augmented reality store. Data was collected from 189 female consumers in their 20s and 30s living in the Seoul metropolitan area using a convenient sampling method. The results of the study were summarized as follows. First, perceived technological innovativeness was found to have positive effects on curiosity and fun. Second, curiosity had a positive relationship with fun. Third, curiosity had positive effects on revisit and word-of-mouth intention toward the augmented reality store, while fun had no effect on revisit and word-of-mouth intention. Fourth, curiosity mediated the relationship between perceived technological innovativeness and revisit intention, and between perceived technological innovativeness and word-of-mouth intention. The introduction of innovative technology in the offline store leads to a positive response through curiosity rather than fun; therefore, it is suggested that fashion companies develop and utilize augmented reality content that stimulates more curiosity.
