본 증례는 뇌성마비가 있는 혼합치열기의 청소년에서 치간이개를 개선하는 다양한 방법을 모색해보았다. 그 중 복합레진을 이용한 보존적 치료는 이동에 어려움이 있는 뇌성마비 환아에서 최소한의 내원 횟수, 짧은 술식 시간, 경제적이며, 가역적이고 단순한 치료법이다. 이를 통해 높은 심미적 만족도와 발음 및 교합력 개선을 통해 본 환아의 삶을 질을 높일 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

다발성 우식증을 주소로 내원한 7세 1개월의 여자아이가 신경모세포종의 다각적 치료에 따른 치근 형성이상으로 인해 하악 영구절치의 중증도 동요도를 보여 mini-screw를 이용한 레진강선고정을 시행하였다. 이를 통해 동요도의 감소 및 교합안정을 이루었으며, 따라서 하악 영구절치의 치근 형성이상으로 인한 동요도 증가 시 선택적 치료법이 될 수 있을 것이라 생각한다.

Pain and sensory disorder resulting from injury to peripheral nerves of the face and jaws are a major source of patient dissatisfaction and suffering. The majority of patient who sustain injuries to the peripheral sensory nerves of the face and jaws experience a slow but orderly return of sensation that is functional and tolerable in quality, if not "normal". For many patients, however, the long-term effects are a source of aggravation, and for a few, a significant cause of suffering. Common complaints relate to reduced sensory information causing embarrassing food accumulations or drooling, biting a burning the lip or tongue, and difficulty in performing routine activities such as shaving and apply makeup. For some patients posttraumatic symptoms become pathological and frankly painful. The predominent pain components are (1) numbing anesthesia dolorosa pain, (2) triggered neuralgiaform pain, (3) burning, aching causalgiaform pain, and (4) phantom pain. This is a report of cases about posttraumatic pain syndrome associated with dental treatment in a psychologically disabled patient.

Autism is a life-long neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by qualitative abnormalities in reciprocal social interactions and patterns of communication. Patients with autism are difficult to manage during dental treatment. Thus they need special consideration like physical restraint, conscious sedation or general anesthesia. A 5-year-old male dental patient with autism was reffered to dental treatment under conscious sedation using intramuscular midazolam that creats anterograde amnesia. Dental procedure using midazolm which cause anterograde amnesia can be effective treatment strategy in autism patient.
