A 9-year old boy suffering from cleidocranial dysplasia associated with impacted 4 supernumerary teeth and unerupted all permanent teeth is presented with his mother. The pedigree showed autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance, and the raiographic features of them were very similar in clavicle, skull, vertebrae, peivis and extremities. Although almost of the skeleton was involved with this syndrome, they did not recognize any other problem but except dental problem. In mother, who was wearing removable partial dentures leaving 24 impacted teeth in her jaws, the radiographic abnormalities like cystic lesion were not detected. And in the son, who showed impacted 4 supernumerary and all permanent teeth, we have attempted surgical extraction of the supernumerary teeth and periodic surgical opening of the alveolar bone covering the permanent dentition to induce the eruption of permanent teeth at the proper position, Orthodontic treatment has also been combined to correct class III malocclusion state.

Supernumerary teeth are in excess of the normal number of teeth in either the primary or permanent dentitions. They are classified into supplemental teeth resembling those of the normal series and rudimentary teeth with abnormal shapes, according to their form. Most of the supernumerary teeth are rudimentary form, and supplemental teeth are much less common. Sulppemental teeth are most common in the permanent maxillary lateral incisor area and clinicians should be careful with differential diagnosis from normal teeth. Unerupted supernumerary teeth may produce several complications such as delayed eruption, displacement of permanent teeth, diastema, root resorption and cyst formation. Early detection and proper treatment plan according to the tooth alignment and root formation stage are important. Here we report 3 cases of unilateral or bilateral normal incisor shaped supernumerary lateral incisors treated by eruption observation, surgical extraction and orthodontic treatment with resin build-up.

The incidence and associated dental abnormalities of taurodontism were studied radiographically (panoramic view) in 1895 patients of deciduous dentition and 2167 patients of permanent dentition who had visited to the Department of Oral Radiology, Kyung Hee University in Korea. The obtained results were as follows: 1. The prevalence of taurodontism was 3.59% in the deciduous dentition group, and 1.8% in the permanent dentition group. 2. There was no definite sex difference in the deciduous dentition, and the permanent dentition group. The type of mesotaurodontism was predominent in the deciduous dentition group, and hypotaurodontism in the permanent dentition group. 4. The vast majority of this abnormalities had occurred in the mandibular 1st deciduous molar in the deciduous dentition group, and mandibular 2nd permanent molar in the permanent dentition group. 5. Of the cases with taurodontism, the deciduous dentition group revealed 95.6% bilaterally, and 82% bilaterally in the permanent dentition group. 6. Multiple teeth occurance, not single tooth only, were involved in 98.5% of the cases in the deciduous dentition group, and 82% in the permanent dentition group.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the resorption potential in human permanent teeth by analyzing the frequency and the degree of root resorption as revealed by routine intraoral roentgenograms. The following conclusions were obtained: 1) The distribution of root resorptions was as follows; a) 65.3 per cent were no root resorption. b) 7.0 per cent showed questionable root shortening. c) 25.2 per cent were definite root shortening. d) 2.5 per cent showed very severe resorption. 2) The order of susceptibility of teeth to resorption in this study was consistent with other studies. 3) The maxillary teeth showed a much higher incidence (52.2 per cent) than the mandibular teeth (17.1 per cent) 4) The sex ratio of the sample in this study was 1.3 female to 1 male.

In this paper, the notch of teeth and skew of permanent magnet are used to reduce the detent force caused by slot-teeth structure. Also, the shape of permanent magnet is optimized to reduce the detent forceowing to flux hannonics components of permanent magnet. As a result, thrust is decrease about 2[%]. But, the distortion ratio of thrust is decreased from 1.04[%] to 0.75[%]. And, the ripple ratio of thrust is decreased from 2.6[%] to 1.65[%].

The author extracted 300 children as a control group and 300 children as an observation group from Korean primary school children which were aged 9 to 11, and surveyed the dental caries experience and oral hygiene condition. Children in a control group had not been served wit school meal. On the other hand, children in an observation group were served with school meal. The average number of caries experienced permanent teeth per mouth and the oral hygiene indices were calculated from the collected data and compared with each other. The obtained results were as follows. 1. The DMFT rate was 15.93% in the observation group and 10.33% in the control group. 2. The Oral Hygiene Index was 1.04 in the observation group and 1.60 in the control group. 3. It couldn't be made a decision that school meal service was direct cause to increase the occurrence of dental caries on the permanent teeth in Korean primary school children.

The purpose of this study is to determine the developmental relationship between the maxillary primary central incisors and their permanent successor. The auther took 315 cases of lateral cephalogram of the children (males were 171, females were 141) Angular change of the teeth and horizontal and vertical linear change were observed. The obtained results were as follows: 1. The inclination of the long axes of both incisor teeth was relatively stable and labio-version of both incisore was significant at 7 years of age. 2. The distance between the incisal edge of the permanent central insisor and the resorbing apex of the primary maxillary central incisor remained within 2mm of each other, 3. Vertical growth of the maxillary anterior portion was greater than horizontal growth from 6 to 7 years of age. 4. There was not a significant sexual difference.

Recently Permanent Magnet Linear Synchronous Motors(PMLSMs) are widely used for many linear transportation applications. The PMLSM has many advantages such as simple structure, high speed and thrust. However, especially in short primary type PMLSM, there exists very large detent force, which makes the thrust force ripple, undesired vibration and noise. The detent force is composed of the Cogging force and the End force. The Cogging force comes from the interaction between the permanent magnets and interior teeth of the stator. And the End force acts on the exterior teeth of the stator by the permanent magnets. Usually End force is larger than Cogging force, so the detent force is drasically reduced only by reducing the End force. This paper shows the End force is minimized by optimizing the stator length and chamfering the shape of the exterior teeth of the stator.

The purpose of this study is concerned with an investigation of the actual condition of traumatic injuries of teeth and supporting structures in children to set up possible criteria for prevention and treatment of injured teeth. The materials consisted of the clinical records of 431 traumatically injured teeth of 212 children, accumulated during two years from the first of April in 1998 to the end of March in 2000, supplied from the Dept. of Pediatric Dentistry, Chonbuk National University Hospital. The incidence of injuries in boys was extremely high for permanent teeth, twice as high as in girls. Accidents to primary teeth were most common from 1 to 2 years of age and to permanent teeth were most from 8 to 9 years of age. The most common cause of trauma was a fall for both primary and permanent teeth, followed by collision. The anterior teeth in maxilla was most frequently affected by trauma in both the primary and permanent teeth. The most common type of trauma were loosening for the primary teeth, followed by luxation types which included the intrusion, displacement and extrusion and complete avulsion types. For the permanent teeth, the most common type of trauma were tooth fracture. The most common trauma of soft tissue was laceration of upper lip, lower lip and gingiva of maxilla Concerning treatment at the first visit, primary teeth with only loosening and concussion were not usually treated. Permanent teeth were often treated by crown restorations for crown fractures and by endodontic procedures for pulpal exposure. Though we could elucidate actual condition of traumatic injuries of teeth in children, we should make a follow-up survey to ensure the prognosis of injured teeth and establish the most desirable criteria for traumatized teeth in children.

A cyst that develops in children's jaw occasionally disturbs the eruption of the succedaneous teeth. These teeth, however, usually have the potential of eruption. So, if the obstacles to eruption are eliminated, it is possible that the teeth erupt spontaneously to their normal position. In those cases, it usually requires the management of the cyst and the eruption guidance of the displaced teeth. Many surgical procedures have been described for the elimination of cysts. When the cyst is large and displaces the permanent teeth, marsupializaion is a surgical technique that may be preferred to enucleation in treatment of cysts. In marsupializaion, if the opening is maintained properly, it may be possible to manage the cyst and guide the displaced teeth into the normal position. In these cases, the cysts were managed with marsupialization in concomittent application of acrylic obturators, and as a result the displaced permanent teeth were guided into normal position. Even though the etiologic factors of the two cases are different, the treatment was the same. And both cases show that the potential for heal ing is remarkable with spontaneous relocation of displaced tooth, provided the opening is maintained during the eruption of the permanent tooth.
