Orthognathic surgery is the primary treatment option for severe skeletal discrepancy. However, orthodontic camouflage should be considered as an alternative treatment option, considering the risks of surgery. A 19.5-yearold man presented with a severe prognathic mandible with a Class III molar relationship and an anterior crossbite. Orthognathic surgery could be considered because of his severe skeletal discrepancy and mandibular prognathism. However, the anesthetist for orthognathic surgery did not recommend surgery under general anesthesia because of risk factors associated with the patient's aplastic anemia, including bleeding and infections. Thus, a camouflage treatment to promote backward rotation of the mandible via orthodontic extrusion of the posterior teeth was planned. An anterior bite plate, intermaxillary elastics, and fixed orthodontic appliances were used to extrude the posterior teeth and to align the dentition. After 17 months of nonsurgical orthodontic treatment, normal occlusion was achieved, and the facial profile was dramatically improved. This case report describes the dentoskeletal and soft-tissue effects of mandibular rotation and its long-term stability.

The mentum plays an important role in the aesthetics of the face, and genioplasty is performed to improve an unbalance of the mentum. Among the various surgical approaches, setback genioplasty is used to create an aesthetic jaw-end appearance by moving the mentum backward when it protrudes more than normal. However, conventional setback genioplasty may be aesthetically disadvantageous because the profile of the mentum could become flat. This case study attempted to overcome the limitations of conventional setback genioplasty by rotating the position of the menton and pogonion. We devised a new method for setback genioplasty by rotating the segment anteroinferiorly. Using virtual surgery, we were able to specify the range of surgery more accurately and easily, and the surgery time was reduced. This case report showed the difference in chin soft tissue responses between conventional setback genioplasty and setback genioplasty with rotation.

An overall reduction in the horizontal and vertical dimensions occurs following tooth extraction and the resorption of the buccal part of the ridge is more pronounced than the lingual part. Thus, the resulting morphology of the healed alveolar ridge is often presenting with a discrepancy in bone height between the buccal and lingual aspects of the ridge. The implant with a sloped marginal configuration that is designed to match the sloped contour of the alveolar ridge provides the opportunity to maintain the buccal-lingual bone discrepancy and soft tissue around the implant. This paper introduces the OsseoSpeed TX Profile implants with sloped marginal configuration and explains the characteristics and clinical meanings of those implants.

The study was made on the facial profile of the normal Korean adults using the roentgenographic cephalograms. The subjects ccnsisted of 50 males and 50 females with the normal occlusion. The measurements were made of the facial angles in skeletal pattern and depth, height and the length in the soft tissue profile. The mean and standard deviations from the subjects were calculated and compared with the samples of male and female. The authors have drawn the conclusions as follows: 1. Compared with the angulation in skeletal patterns, there were no differences between both sexes. 2. Individual variations of the lower face were larger than the upper face in most measuring points. 3. Generally, facial heights were lesser than facial depth in sexual differences. 4. Most dimensions of the facial depth, height and length of the male were larger than those of female.

The purpose of this artic1e is to compare soft tissue profiles between Korean adults with normal occ1usion and malocclusin and to identify the differences between them. The subjects of this cephalometric study were 40 males with normal occlusion(Group 1), 27 females with normal occlusion(Group 2), 28 adults with Angle's Class II malocclusion(Group 3) and 41 adults with Angle's Class III malocclusion(Group 4). The results of this study were as follows ; 1) People with Angle's Class II malocclusion had tendency to have more labial tipping of lower teeth than people with normal occ1usion. Through NOA angle measurement, it was determined that people with Angle's Class II malocclusion had more protruding midface than people with normal occlusion and people with Angle's Class III malocclusion had retruding midface. 2) Through Powell's esthetic triangle analysis, it was determined that people with Angle's Class II malocclusion had retruding chin and protruding nose. 3) No significant differences between people with normal occlusion and maloclusion could be identified by measuring soft tissue profile angle basis of S-NS plane. 4) There were significant differences between groups with normal occlusion and malocclusion by measuring Facial convexity angle(Significance level 99%). 5) By measuring the distance between each landmark basis of N-Pog plane, People with Angle's Class II malocclusion were identified as having more protruding midface, but there were no significant differences between people with normal occlusion and Angle's Class III malocclusion. 6) By measuring the vertical dimension of the face, it was determined that the lower facial height was higher than the upper facial height in all groups, particularly in group with Angle's Class III malocclusion. 7) By measuring the lips basis of E-line and S-line, it was determined that people with Angle's Class III malocclusion had more, protruding lower lips than people with normal occlusion, while people with normal occlusion, while people with Angle's Class II malocclusion had more protruding upper lips. By measuring the distance between the superior sulcus and inferior sulcus basis of H-line, people with Angle's Class II malocclusion had thicker upper lips than the other's.

성장기 골격성 제III급 부정교합의 원인은 상악 열성장, 하악 과성장과 두 양상의 조합형태로 나뉠 수 있다. 이중 상악 열성장을 동반한 성장기 골격성 제III급 부정교합의 경우, 상악골 전방견인 장치의 사용이 추천되고 있는데, 이러한 장치의 치료효과는 상악골의 전하방 이동과 하악골의 후하방 회전으로 알려져 있다. 국내외 선학들에 의해 상악골 전방견인 장치의 치료효과에 대한 많은 동물실험과 임상실험 결과가 발표되었으나, 연조직 측모 변화에 대한 연구는 미비한 상태이고, 또한 치료를 받은 환자간의 치료효과에 대한 비교도 부족한 상태이다. 이에 저자는 상악골 열성장으로 인한 성장기 골격성 제III급 부정교합으로 진단받고, 상악골 전방견인 장치로 치료 받은 93명의 환자를 성별, 치료개시 나이별, 구개봉합 opening여부(구강내 장치), 안모성장 형태에 따라 분류하여, 각 유형에 따라 어떠한 경조직과 연조직 측모의 변화가 관찰되는지 여부와, Angle씨 제 I 급 부정교합의 정상군 20명과 상악골 전방견인 장치로 치료받은 환자 사이에 경조직과 연조직에 있어서 성장량과 치료량에 어떠한 관계가 있는지 비교하여 다음의 결론을 얻었다. 1. 상악골 전방견인 장치 사용시 골격적 계측항목과 치아와 연조직 계측항목에서 성장량보다 많은 치료에 의한 변화량을 관찰할 수 있었다. 2. 남녀별 치료개시 나이에 따른 상악골 전방이동량과 하악골의 후하방 회전량에는 유의차가 없었다. 3. R.P.E.에서 La-Li보다 유의성 있는 상악골(A point)의 전방이동을 보였으며, 상악 전치의 순측 돌출이 La-Li를 사용하였을때 보다 감소되었다. 4. 안모성장 형태에 따라서는 상악골 전방이동량에는 유의차가 없었으나, 하악골의 후하방 회전을 나타내는 계측치에서 counterclockwise군이 clockwise군보다 많은 변화를 나타냈다. 5. 상순과 하순의 후경변화는 하부 골조직과 상하악 치아의 위치변화와 높은 상관관계를 보였으며, 상순의 고경과 nasolabial angle이 증가하고, mentolabial angle이 감소되었다.

측모의 연조직 분석 시 Subnasale는 중요한 기준점으로 사용되지만 이상적인 위치에 대한 평가한 연구는 드물다. 본 연구의 목적은 한국인 측모에서 Subnasale의 위치 변화에 따른 심미적 안모에 대한 객관적 기준을 제시 하는 것이며, 추가적으로 전문가 집단과 일반 대중 간의 안모 선호도 인식에 어떤 차이가 존재하는지 평가 하는 것이다. 이번 연구를 위해 채득한 20대 여성 사진 중에서 전문가에 의해 결정된 적절한 측면 안모 비율로 판단되는 1명의 측모 사진을 선정하였다. 선정된 사진은 비순각을 유지하며 진성 수직선에 수직한 평면상에서 Subnasale을 전, 후방으로 변화시켰다. 합성된 사진은 전문가 집단(교정의사 9명)과 일반 대중(126명)에게 제시되어 각각의 선호도를 VAS상에 표시하도록 하였다. 다음의 결론을 얻었다. 1. Subnasale의 이상적인 위치는 Lateral canthus~Subnasale : Subnasale~Pronasale가 1.769 : 1을 이룰 때 이다. 2. 각도상 Nasion을 통과하는 진성 수직선과 Subnasale가 $5.5^{\circ}$를 이룰 때 이다. 3. 전문가 집단은 모든 비율 변화를 인지하였으나, 일반 대중은 1.571 : 1과 1.769 : 1 사이의 변화를 인지하지 못하였다.

The primary objective of this study was to define the differences that exist. between different sexes on the dentoskeletal framework and the soft tissue profile around the mouth. For the purpose of this study, cephalometric radiographs were obtained from the centric occlusion with closed lip position, through the research on each 42 males and females aged from 17 to 22 years with normal occlusion and acceptable facial appearence. The results were as follows: 1. Maxillary to mandibular relationships. Among the angles formed by the long axis of the maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth, the maxillary and mandibular anterior alveolar bone, and the lower and upper lips (Fig.2), only the angle formed by the lips was more acute in males than in females. The males have a more rounded profile, and the females have a flatter profile in the lower third of the face. The differences is statistically significant for the angle formed by the lips. The fact that the lips have a difference greater than that of teeth or the alveolar bone indicates that the lip position is not entirely due to tooth and bony support. Possibly the thickness of the lips has an influence. 2. Occlusal plane. The occlusal plane was related to the anterior tooth inclination, anterior alveolar bone profile, and the lip contour, both maxillary and mandibular (Fig.3). Only the angle related to lower lip was statistically significant. The females again had the more obtuse angle, indicating a flatter profile than that of the males. 3.Skeletal planes. The angles formed by the anterior maxillary lips, teeth, and alveolar bone with the Frankfort plane and the angles of the mandibular lips, teeth, and, alveolar bone and the mandibular plane were investigated (Fig.4). Results were similar to those from maxillary to mandibular relationships. The results were statistically significant for the upper lip and the lower lip, only. 4. Esthetics. The facial line and the mandibular plane were compared with the esthetic line. These angles were different for the different sexes, but only the latter was statistically significant. This difference may be due to the profile contour of the nose.
