PURPOSE. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate cumulative survival rate (CSR) of Implantium implants followed for 5 years and association between risk factors and the CSR. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A total of two hundred forty-nine Implantium Implants System (Dentium, Seoul, Korea) placed in ninety-five patients from 2004 to 2009 were investigated with several identified risk factors (sex, systemic disease, smoking, alchohol, reason of tooth loss, length, arch (maxilla or mandible), replace tooth type (incisor, canine, premolar or molar) Kennedy classification, prosthodontic type, prosthodontic design, opposite dentition, abutment type, occlusal material, occlusal unit, splint to tooth, cantilever, other surgery). Clinical examination (mobility, percussion, screw loosening, discomfort, etc.) and radiographic examination data were collected from patient records including all problems during follow-up period according to protocols described earlier. Life table analysis was undertaken to examine the CSR. Cox regression method was conducted to assess the association between potential risk factors and overall CSR. RESULTS. Five of 249 implants were failed. Four of these were lost before loading. The 5-year implant cumulative survival rate was 97.37%. Cox regression analysis demonstrated a significant predictive association between overall CSR and systemic disease, smoking, reason of tooth loss, arch, Kennedy classification and prosthodontic design (P<.05). The screw related complication was rare. Two abutment screw fractures were found. Another complications of prosthetic components were porcelain fracture, resin facing fracture and denture fracture (n=19). CONCLUSION. The 5-year CSR of Implantium implants was 97.37 %. Implant survival may be dependent upon systemic disease, smoking reason of tooth loss, arch, Kennedy classification and prosthodontic design (P<.05). The presence of systemic diseases and combination of other surgical procedures may be associated with increased implant failure.

치주염환자에서는 치아의 회전이나 순측경사등으로 인한 상악 정중부 이개 등의 심미적, 기능적 문제들이 자주 수반되어 후속 적인 교정치료를 요하는 경우가 많다. 이러한 경우 보조적인 교정치료로도 치료가 가능한데, 안정된 후방구치에서는 교정력을 가하지 않고 고정 원으로써 작용하게 하고 해당 치아만을 이동시켜야만 한다. 그러나 성인교정에서는 제한점들이 많기 때문에 비교정전문의에게는 섣불리 교정치료를 하기가 어렵다. 더구나 정확히 브라켓을 장착하는 것이 중요한데 간단한 문제는 아니다. Silverman등이 indirect bonding technique을 소개하면서 이런 문제점들을 해결하는데 도움을 주게 되었다. 그후 여러 사람 들에서 다양한 방법들이 소개되었지만 기본적인 원리는 구강 외에서 이상적인 위치에 브라켓을 위치시키고 tray를 이용해서 구강내 치아면에 재현하는 방법이다. 이런 방법을 이용함으로써 molar uprighting, forced eruption, 악교정술시 surgical arch wire 장착, 설측교정술 등에도 쉽게 적용할 수 있다. 이러한 관점에서, 비교정전문의들도 보다 쉽고, 정확하게 브라켓을 위치시킬 수 있는 indirect bonding technique를 이용한다면 보조적인 교정치료 뿐만 아니라 포괄적인 교정치료도 가능하리라 사료된다.

Dental caries is the first disease to cause the pathological extraction of teeth in children. The complete prevention of dental caries is not achieved by toothbrushing alone. The use of fluoride and pit and fissure sealant is regarded as key tools to prevent dental caries. Fluoride-containing tablets or multi-vitamins and community water fluoridation can be used as systemic application techniques. Professional fluoride application, fluoride iontophoresis on teeth, fluoride mouth rinsing and fluoride-containing toothpaste can be used as local application techniques. Pit and fissure sealant is mainly used to prevent dental caries on occlusal surfaces of premolars and molars. Sweeteners not to occur dental caries has been developed to substitute sucrose. Dental erosion increases according to the high consumption of acidic soft drink or beverages. The appropriate use of fluoride and pit and fissure sealant are recommended to prevent dental caries effectively and the education is required to reduce the consumption of acidic soft drinks or beverages to decrease dental erosion.

Purpose: The aim of this article is to review a group of lesions associated with periodontal ligament (PDL) widening. Materials and Methods: An electronic search was performed using specialized databases such as Google Scholar, PubMed, PubMed Central, Science Direct, and Scopus to find relevant studies by using keywords such as "periodontium", "periodontal ligament", "periodontal ligament space", "widened periodontal ligament", and "periodontal ligament widening". Results: Out of nearly 200 articles, about 60 were broadly relevant to the topic. Ultimately, 47 articles closely related to the topic of interest were reviewed. When the relevant data were compiled, the following 10 entities were identified: occlusal/orthodontic trauma, periodontal disease/periodontitis, pulpo-periapical lesions, osteosarcoma, chondrosarcoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, progressive systemic sclerosis, radiation-induced bone defect, bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis, and osteomyelitis. Conclusion: Although PDL widening may be encountered by many dentists during their routine daily procedures, the clinician should consider some serious related conditions as well.

저위교합이란 능동적 맹출기 동안이나 이후 해당치아의 교합면 방향으로의 성장이 멈추어 다른 치아들보다 하방에 존재하는 것을 말한다 저위교합치의 결과로 침하치의 만기잔존, 부정교합, 증가된 치아우식 감수성과 치주질환의 가능성, 계승치의 이동 등이 나타날 수 있다. 따라서 조기진단 및 적절한 처치가 필요하다. 저위교합치의 치료는 저위교합 정도나 후속 영구치의 발육정도에 따라 보존에서 발치까지 다양하다. 영구 계승치가 없거나 부분적인 침하치가 치주적으로 건전한 경우, 공간문제를 발생하지 않는 경우 보존적인 접근이 추천되기도 한다. 그러나 계승치가 존재하고 맹출이 지연되는 경우, 국소적인 염증반응과 관련되는 경우, 교정적인 치료가 필요한 경우에는 발거가 필요할 수도 있다. 특히 저위교합된 유구치의 상방으로 인접치가 경사되어 악궁장경에 문제를 초래할 위험이 있는 경우 외과적인 발치가 필요할 수도 있으며 경사가 심한 경우 발치를 위한 외과적 접근이 힘들 수 있다. 심하게 경사된 인접치로 인하여 저위교합치의 외과적 발거가 힘든 환아에서 가철성 교정장치를 이용하여 공간확보를 선행하였으며 보다 용이하게 치아를 발거할 수 있었다.

Objectives: This study evaluated the effect of dentin pretreatment with silver nanoparticles (SNPs) and chlorhexidine (CHX) on the microshear bond strength (${\mu}SBS$) durability of different adhesives to dentin. Materials and Methods: Occlusal surfaces of 120 human molars were ground to expose flat dentin surfaces. The specimens were randomly assigned to six groups (n = 20). Three groups (A, B, and C) were bonded with Adper Single Bond 2 (SB) and the other groups (D, E, and F) were bonded with Clearfil SE Bond (SEB). Dentin was pretreated with CHX in groups B and E, and with SNPs in groups C and F. The specimens were restored with Z250 composite. Half of the bonded surfaces in each group underwent ${\mu}SBS$ testing after 24 hours and the other half was tested after 6 months of water storage. Results: SNP application was associated with a higher ${\mu}SBS$ than was observed in the CHX and control groups for SEB after 24 hours (p < 0.05). A significantly lower ${\mu}SBS$ was observed when no dentin pretreatment was applied compared to dentin pretreatment with CHX and SNPs for SB after 24 hours (p < 0.05). The ${\mu}SBS$ values of the 6-month specimens were significantly lower than those obtained from the 24-hour specimens for all groups (p < 0.05). This decrease was much more pronounced when both adhesives were used without any dentin pretreatment (p < 0.05). Conclusions: SNPs and CHX reduced the degradation of resin-dentin bonds over a 6-month period for both adhesive systems.

This is a retrospective study on the care of odontogenic infections in admission patients with major bleeding disorders. The study was based on a series of 514 patients treated at Dong San Medical Center, Wonju Christian Hospital and Il San Health Insurance Hospital, from Jan. 1, 2000, to Dec. 31, 2002. The obtained results were as follows : 1. The cardiovascular disease was the most frequent cause of the systemic diseases with major bleeding disorders, and liver disease, cerebrovascular disease and renal failure were next in order of frequency. But, there was the most frequent dental consultation in the liver disease, owing to the many odontogenic infectious diseases. 2. Male prediction (66.3%) was almost existed in the odontogenic infectious patients with major bleeding disorders. But, there was slight female prediction (53.4%) in the cardiovascular disease. 3. The most common age group of the odontogenic infectious patients with major bleeding disorders was the fifty decade(27.2%), followed by the forty, sixty & thirty decade in order. 4. In the contents of chief complaints on the odontogenic infectious patients with major bleeding disorder, peak incidence was occurred as toothache (42.2%), followed by intraoral bleeding, ulcer pain, dental extraction in order. 5. In the diagnosis group of odontogenic infectious diseases, periodontitis, pulpitis and periapical abscess were more common. 6. In the treatment group of odontogenic infectious diseases, the most frequent incidence(44.2%) was showed in primary endodontic drainage(pulp extirpation, occlusal reduction & canal opening drainage) and followed by the incision & drainage, the medications & oral hygiene instruction, scaling, indirect pulp capping in order.
