초록

치과에 내원하는 주된 이유 중의 하나는 통증이며 이런 통증 치료시에 장시간의 개구는 저작근에 근육문제를 야기할 수 있다. 장시간의 근피로를 유발할 수 있는 치과진료실내에서의 치료로 인하여 두통, 저작근의 통증, 개구 장애, 저작 곤란 등을 유발할 수 있으며, 통증을 치료하기위하여 내원한 환자로서는 예상하지 못한 다른 국면의 통증에 맞부딪치게 된다. 물론 이악물기등의 악습관 그리고 과도한 껌저작등으로 인해서도 임상적으로 근쇠약감이 호소하며 이에 대해서는 실험적 근피로유도후에 근전도등을 이용하여 연구가 이루어져왔다. 근쇠약감 및 근피로로 인하여 교합양상의 변화를 주관적으로 호소하며 이 상태에서의 근육의 근전도 평가가 이루어져 왔던 것에 비하여 교합의 변화에 대해서는 평가가 미진하였다. 과도한 이악물기나 개구 및 껌 저작으로 인한 근피로가 교합양상에 미치는 변화를 평가하고 감각신경 변화로 인하여 근통증에 영향을 미치는 조사하고자 측두하악장애 증상이 없고 정상 범주의 교합을 가졌으며 교정치료나 3개 이상의 보철 치료를 받지 않은 지원자 총 24명(평균나이 25.7세)을 대상으로 하였다. 근 피로를 실험적으로 유발하기 위하여 이악물기, 장시간 개구 상태 유지, 주저작측으로 껌 저작을 시행하여 근피로를 느끼도록 하였다. 본 연구에서는 전기적 자극을 이용하는 뉴로미터를 이용하여 근통증시에 주저작측 삼차신경의 감각신경을 측정하였고, 근통증을 느끼는 시점에 근쇠약감이나 저작근 기능 장애로 인한 교합상태의 변화를 평가하기 위하여 T-scan II system을 이용하여 교합접촉, 교합력 등을 조사하여 다음의 결과를 얻었다. 1. 근피로는 장시간 개구 후에 가장먼저 느꼈으며 근통증을 느끼는 시간은 이악물기 후에 가장 빨리 나타났다. 근피로, 통증을 느끼는 시점에서의 근피로, 통증의 정도는 이악물기 후에 가장 높았다 2. 최초접촉시의 접촉시간 접촉력은 차이가 없었으며 교두간 접촉위에서 껌저작후 접촉시간, 장시간 개구 후와 껌저작후에 접촉력이 감소하였다. 최대접촉위에서는 장시간 개구후와 껌저작후에 접촉력이 감소하였다. 최종접촉위에서는 모든 실험적 근피로후에 접촉시간이 감소하였고 접촉력은 껌저작후에 감소하였다. 3. 실험적 근피로가 유발된 근육에서의 감각 변화는 보이지 않았다. 4. 접촉수는 실험적 근피로 유발후에 최초접촉위 최대 접촉위 그리고 최종접촉위에서 감소되는 양상을 보였다. 5. 접촉수의 주저작측에 따른 비교에서 좌측으로 껌을 저작한 군은 접촉수에 좌우측 차이를 보이지 않았으며, 우측으로 껌을 저작한 군에서는 좌측이 많았다. 결론적으로 구강내외에 발생하는 일련의 사건은 임상적으로 근쇠약감을 호소하는 경우 교합양상에 변화를 초래 할 수 있음을 확인 할 수 있었으며, 장시간의 개구나 이악물기, 과도한 저작등의 악구강계에 영향을 미칠 수 사건은 특히 치과치료 시에 교합 변화에 주의를 요함을 확인할 수 있었다.

This study aimed to make an analysis of the occlusion in the state of muscle fatigue produced by excessive mouth opening and clenching during the dental treatment to control the dental pain and to evaluate the sensory nerve in the muscle pain state. Most of the reasons why patients visit the dental office result in pain-either conceivably the dental origin pain or the non-dental origin pain. The dental offices have many therapeutic actions to produce the masticatory muscle fatigue for the treatment. Dental treatment with long minutes of mouth opening can cause some headaches, masticatory muscle pain and mouth opening difficulties. Patients with mastication problems who visits a dental office to alleviate pain run against another unexpected pain with other aspects. This study uses T-scan II system(Tekscan Co., USA) for the evaluation on the occlusal pattern in the experimental muscle fatigue after clenching, opening the mouth excessively and chewing gum. The occlusal contact pattern is analyzed by the contact timing, namely first, intercuspal, maximum and end point of contact. This inspection was performed at frequencies of 2000Hz, 250 Hz and 5 Hz before and after each experimental muscle pain was produced to 24 subjects who had normal occlusion without the orthodontic treatment or a wide range of the prosthesis by using $neurometer^{\circledR}$ CPT/C(Neurotron, Inc. Baltimore, Maryland, USA). The measuring sites were mandibular nerve experimental muscle fatigue respectively. This study could obtain the following results after the assessment of occlusion and sensory nerve of the experimental muscle fatigue. 1. There were the fastest expression after the excessive mouth opening in muscle fatigue and after tooth clenching in muscle pain. In the visual analog scale that records the subjective level, there was the highest scale after the clenching in the muscle fatigue in jumping off the point of pain. 2. Tooth contact time, contact force, relative contact force on the point of the first contact had no difference, and there were decreases in the contact force after the excessive mouth opening on intercuspal position point, after the excessive mouth opening and the gum chewing on the point of the maximum, and in the contact time after all the experimental muscle fatigue state on the point of the end contact. 3. There was no statistic significance in the current perception threshold before and after the experimental muscle fatigue. 4. There was no significant difference in the contact number, the maximal contact number on the point of the first contact, and the contact number after the mouth opening and gum chewing on the point of the intercuspal position and the contact number after the experimental muscle fatigue on the maximum point, and showed significant decreases. In conclusion, it was found that the occlusal pattern can cause the changes on the case of the clinical muscle weakness by intra-external oral events. It was important that the sedulous attention to details is required during dental treatment in case of excessive mouth opening, mastication and clenching.
