The esthetic factor for the esthetic prosthesis were studied on 300 persons. The praaticipants were 150 students registered under the Deparment of Dental Laboratoy Technology, Jisan Junior College at the present day of June, 1995 and their mothers. The results were as follows; 1. The number of persons with 28 teeth in their oralcatity was highest(P<0.01). They complained that they have only 28 teeth bacaues of the loss(deficiency) fo teeth due to their impacted teeth and dental caries. 2. The presons with feelings of dissatisfaction were large in number(P<0.01). They were dissatisfied with an abnormal tooth form(33.5%), tooth position(31.7%), tooth color(31.1%), and tooth size(3.7%) in order(P<0.01). 3. In their facial form, the most numerous were men with square form and women with ovoid form(P<0.01). Among the whloe number fo facial forms it appeared to decresae in the order of ovoied(41.8%), square(32.7%), square+tapered(20.5%), and tapered form(5%)(P<0.01). In a profile form, the most numerous were men with A form and women with B. Among the whole participants the most numerous were persons with B form and persons with A and C form were next in oder of numbers(P<0.01). 4. In discoloration of teeth, the most numerous were persons who have no discoloration. 5. In the esthetic recovery of anterior prosthesis the color matching of proximal teeth was not correct, but the outline of proximal teeth was to be reproduced correctly. 6. In the diastema of teeth, the number of persons who have no diastema was higher than that of persons who have a disatema(P<0.01) Among the persons who have diastema the most numerous were persons who have a diastema, and next were 2, 4, 3 and 5 diastemas in order. 7. In a meeting point of the midline of the body and the tooth the number of person hanving a meeting point was higher than that of persons who did not fit each other(P<0.01). The bias direction of midline teeth appeared to be affected by chewing direction, prosthesis location, and posterior location. 8. The length and width of teeth in the tooth size were suitable(P<0.01). The number of persons who have central teeth longer than lateral teeth was high(P<0.0). 9. In the results of smile analysis, the line form connected with incisal edge of upper canine were parallel(P<0.01). When smile the location fo upper lips should be in accord with the central area of teeth(P<0.01) and lower lip should be atteched to the edge of anterior teeth in order to be esthetic. 10. Among the number of upper teeth we can see the most numerous were 8 teeth and next were 10, 6 and 12 in order.

The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of several root canal sealers on the discoloration of internal surface after root canal obstruction. Twenty four sound human premolars, extracted for orthodontic or prosthodontic purposes, were randomly selected and divided into eight groups. Extracted premolars were prepared, and the following seven materials were introduced into the pulp cavities: AH 26, Fuji ionomer (Type I) cement, N2, Oxypara "Murakami", Kerr sealer, PCA sealer, and G-C's Propac ZOE cement. After 7 weeks of incubation; the discolored tooth crowns were hemisectioned, and the internal staining patterns were examined. Then, with an association of observed values the mean intensity scores and percentage of coverage scores of the internal staining patterns in teeth attained by two observers using for Chisquare test were analyzed. The results were as follows: 1. All the experimental premolar's crown showed various ranged discoloration of internal surface. 2. There was no significance between the association scores of two observers participated into this experiments:% coverage scores (P > 0.05) and intensity (P > 0.05) 3. The crowns filled with PCA sealer, AH 26, and Fuji ionomer cement was visible within a depth of one third of dentin. (P> 0.05) 4. For N2, Kerr sealer, and G-C's Propac cement, A slight dentinal staining was recorded, which penetrated up to half way into the dentin. (P> 0.05) 5. It was noticed that the teeth filled with Oxypara "Murakami" were discolored more than two thirds of the dentinal layer. 6. On the control group, there was no discoloration.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate discoloration of teeth undergoing regenerative endodontic procedures (REPs) using blood clot or platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) as the scaffolds and different calcium silicate-based materials as the intracanal coronal barriers in an ex vivo model. Materials and Methods: Forty-eight bovine incisors were prepared and disinfected using 1 mg/mL double antibiotic paste (DAP). The specimens were then randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 24) according to the scaffolds (blood or PRF). After placement of scaffolds each group was divided into 2 subgroups (n = 12) according to the intracanal coronal barriers (ProRoot MTA or Biodentine). The pulp chamber walls were sealed with dentin bonding agent before placement of DAP and before placement of scaffolds. The color changes (${\Delta}E$) were measured at different steps. The data were analyzed using 2-way analysis of variance. Results: Coronal discoloration induced by DAP was not clinically perceptible (${\Delta}E{\leq}3.3$). Regarding the type of the scaffold, coronal discoloration was significantly higher in blood groups compared with PRF groups at the end of REP and after 1 month (p < 0.05). However, no significant difference was found between PRF and blood clot after 6 months (p > 0.05). Considering the type of intracanal coronal barrier, no significant difference existed between ProRoot MTA and Biodentine (p > 0.05). Conclusions: With sealing the dentinal tubules of pulp chamber with a dentin bonding agent and application of DAP as an intracanal medicament, coronal color change of the teeth following the use of PRF and blood sealed with either ProRoot MTA or Biodentine was not different at 6-month follow-up.

The present report presents a case of dens invaginatus (DI) in a patient with 4 maxillary incisors. A 24-year-old female complained of swelling of the maxillary left anterior region and discoloration of the maxillary left anterior tooth. The maxillary left lateral incisor (tooth #22) showed pulp necrosis and a chronic apical abscess, and a periapical X-ray demonstrated DI on bilateral maxillary central and lateral incisors. All teeth responded to a vitality test, except tooth #22. The anatomic form of tooth #22 was similar to that of tooth #12, and both teeth had lingual pits. In addition, panoramic and periapical X-rays demonstrated root canal calcification, such as pulp stones, in the maxillary canines, first and second premolars, and the mandibular incisors, canines, and first premolars bilaterally. The patient underwent root canal treatment of tooth #22 and non-vital tooth bleaching. After a temporary filling material was removed, the invaginated mass was removed using ultrasonic tips under an operating microscope. The working length was established, and the root canal was enlarged up to #50 apical size and obturated with gutta-percha and AH 26 sealer using the continuous wave of condensation technique. Finally, non-vital bleaching was performed, and the access cavity was filled with composite resin.

목적: 테트라사이클린 (tetracycline, TC)은 소아청소년을 대상으로 복용하였을 시 영구적 치아 변색의 위험이 증가된다는 보고에 따라 미국에서는 8세 이하, 국내에서는 12세 미만으로 처방이 가이드라인상 추천되지 않고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 TC에 노출된 소아청소년을 대상으로 치아 변색의 발생률을 분석하고, TC에 노출되지 않은 일반 인구 집단과의 발생률 차이를 비교하고자 하였다. 방법: 본 코호트 연구는 2008년 1월부터 2020년 12월 사이 최소 1일 이상 TC에 노출된 소아청소년(0-12세)에 대한 건강보험심사평가원 데이터베이스 정보를 기반으로 분석하였다. TC 노출 6개월 이후 치아 변색 관련 진단코드의 입력여부를 기준으로 치아 변색 발생률을 도출하였고, 추가적으로 연령 보정이 된 TC에 노출되지 않은 일반 인구집단을 추출하여 이를 변수로 한 표준화한 치아 변색 발병률(standardized incidence ratio, SIR)을 구하였다. 결과: 총 56,990명이 포함되었으며, 이 중 8세 미만은 1,735명, 그리고 8-12세는 55,255명이었다. 이 중 61%가 14일 미만 동안 TC를 처방받았으며, 독시사이클린(61%)과 미노사이클린(35%)을 포함한 2세대 TC가 가장 많은 비중을 차지하였다. 0-7세 연령군에서의 5년 및 10년 누적발생률은 4.1% (95% confidence interval [CI], 3.0% to 5.7%) 및 5.7% (95% CI, 4.1% to 7.8%)으로 확인되었고, 이에 비해 8-12세 연령군에서는 0.8% (95% CI, 0.7 to 0.9%) 및1.3 (95% CI, 1.1% to 1.4%)으로 상대적으로 낮았다. TC노출 후 치아 변색의 발생률은 연령 보정된 일반 인구 집단과 비교하였을 때 통계학적으로 유의미한 차이는 없었다 (SIR, 1.08; 95% CI, 0.69 to 1.60). 결론: TC 노출은 일반 인구에 비해 치아 변색 위험을 유의하게 증가시키지 않았으며, 특히 8-12세 사이의 TC 노출군은 그 이하 연령군에 비해 유의미하게 낮은 발생률을 보였다. 따라서, 국내에서 TC 처방에 대한 연령 제한 완화를 고려할 필요가 있다.

Objectives: Understanding the reason for an unsuccessful non-surgical endodontic treatment outcome, as well as the complex anatomy of the root canal system, is very important. This study examined the cross-sectional root canal structure of mandibular first molars confirmed to have failed non-surgical root canal treatment using digital images obtained during intentional replantation surgery, as well as the causative factors of the failed conventional endodontic treatments. Materials and Methods: This study evaluated 115 mandibular first molars. Digital photographic images of the resected surface were taken at the apical 3 mm level and examined. The discolored dentin area around the root canal was investigated by measuring the total surface area, the treated areas as determined by the endodontic filling material, and the discolored dentin area. Results: Forty 2-rooted teeth showed discolored root dentin in both the mesial and distal roots. Compared to the original filled area, significant expansion of root dentin discoloration was observed. Moreover, the mesial roots were significantly more discolored than the distal roots. Of the 115 molars, 92 had 2 roots. Among the mesial roots of the 2-rooted teeth, 95.7% of the roots had 2 canals and 79.4% had partial/complete isthmuses and/or accessory canals. Conclusions: Dentin discoloration that was not visible on periapical radiographs and cone-beam computed tomography was frequently found in mandibular first molars that failed endodontic treatment. The complex anatomy of the mesial roots of the mandibular first molars is another reason for the failure of conventional endodontic treatment.

Background: The size of the tooth whitening market and toothpaste market is increasing worldwide. The purpose of this in vitro study is to confirm and compare the coffee stain removal effects of commercial whitening toothpaste in sound and demineralized teeth, respectively. Methods: A total of 112 flat permanent bovine teeth specimens were manufactured. Half of the surface of the specimen was coated with an acid-resistant varnish and deposited in an artificial demineralizing solution for 65 hours. The varnish applied to half of the specimen was removed and deposited in a coffee solution for 96 hours to induce coloring. Two control and five experimental group toothpastes for teeth whitening were selected and the main components were investigated. Toothbrushing was performed 50, 100, and 150 times for each toothpaste group. A total of four images were obtained: before the start and after 50, 100, and 150 times of brushing to obtain the lightness (L^*) values of the sound and the demineralized tooth surfaces. The difference in the average value between toothpaste groups at each treatment period was analyzed by one-way ANOVA. The difference in the L^* average value according to the number of the brushing was analyzed by repeated measure ANOVA. Results: All toothpastes in the seven groups contained abrasive agents and had different ingredients for each product. Compared to before brushing, the L^* value changed significantly in all toothpaste groups after brushing 50 times (p<0.05). This was common in both the sound and demineralized teeth surfaces. Demineralized teeth had significantly lower L^* values at all brushing times than that in sound teeth (p<0.05). Conclusion: The effect of whitening teeth was different for each toothpaste. Demineralized teeth were more likely to cause coloration than sound teeth, and the coloration was not removed well.
