교합조정이나 대부분의 보철치료는 비가역적이어서 명확한 치료 계획이 없이는 섣불리 치료를 시작하지 말아야 한다. 명확한 치료 계획을 위해서는 증상의 원인 인자를 파악해야 하나, 때때로 그 원인이 불분명하여 환자에게 무어라 설명해야 할지 난감한 경우가 많은 것이 바로 이 분야이다. 교합 재구성을 함에 있어서 생체 역학과 근육의 활동량을 고려해야 하는 것은 이미 주지하고 있는 바이다. 즉, 악관절이나 치아에 대한 하중을 조절함으로써 근조직의 안정을 도모하여 적정한 하악위와 원활한 하악운동을 획득하는 것이 교합 재구성의 큰 목적 중 하나이다.

악관절 잡음과 동통,과두 흡수를 동반한 퇴행성 측두하악장애는 교합 불안정과 개구장애 를 동반하기도 한다. 진단을 위해 CT나 MRI를 이용해 과두 형태 및 디스크 위치를 파악하 는 것이 유용한 접근법이다. 퇴행성 측두하악관절 환자는 CT나 MRI를 이용하여 진단하고, 과두-원판 재위치와 근 기능 개선을 위해 장기간 교합 안정장치 사용이 필요하므로 교정치료 기간에 변형된 교합 안정장치의 병용이 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서 교합 안정장치를 병용하여 교합 재구성 증례를 CT나 MRI로 고찰해 보고자 한다.

A face-bow and an articulator have been used as crucial devices in a prosthodontic reconstruction of a collapsed occlusal plane. In order to avoid inaccuracy of median line in maxilla and the canted occlusal plane both of which may result from using a facebow with ear rods, a facebow that locate a patient's facial median line as reference line has been under development. A mounting technique that tries to bring a center of patient's face into line with the center of the articulator, called esthetic mounting, is currently employed to overcome the imprecision resulted from mounting with ear-bow transfer. We would like to study a case that used OP finder 1, one of the esthetic mounting techniques.

Centric occlusion-maximum intercuspation (CO-MI) discrepancy is one of main causes of evoking premature contact and resultant mandibular shift. These non-physiological conditions can induce temporomandibular disease, periodontitis, and non-carious cervical lesion. Therefore, if CO-MI discrepancy exists in patients who need extensive prosthetic rehabilitation, it must be corrected and then physiological occlusion must be restored. This report describes the treatment procedure of removing CO-MI discrepancy and prosthetic rehabilitation in a patient with 3.5 mm discrepancy, multiple caries and periodontitis. Proper mandibular position and modified opening & closing movement were confirmed by ARCUSdigma II and transcranial radiograph.

A patient with para-functional habits can cause widespread teeth wear, along with temporomandibular joint disorders and myofascial pain syndrome in the masticatory muscles. Prolonged teeth wear is associated with a decrease in vertical occlusal dimension, leading to issues such as changes in facial morphology, decreased masticatory efficiency, and temporomandibular joint disorders. To achieve a three-dimensional full-mouth rehabilitation in patients with decreased vertical occlusal dimension, accurate diagnosis, analysis, and proactive treatment planning are essential. Prosthetic treatment accompanied by the restoration of physiological vertical occlusal dimension and the re-establishment of a normal occlusal plane is necessary. This case report presents a full-mouth rehabilitation case involving a patient with overall teeth wear, showing decreased vertical occlusal dimension which results in discomfort in the temporomandibular joint and aesthetic dissatisfaction. The report highlights the successful outcome achieved through the use of occlusal stabilization splint for temporomandibular joint stability and Gothic arch tracing devices for the re-establishment of intermaxillary relationships. Also, through adjustments and adaptation assessment using provisional prostheses, favorable outcomes were achieved both functionally and aesthetically.

Occlusal plane is a sagittal expression of dental arch form, and it composes the shape of occlusion, which is one of the most important elements of Maxillo-oral system. In this case, vertical, horizontal coordinates of bionic-median-sagittal plane was produced in articulator, and to achieve relation of left and right position of upper, lower teeth and deficits in alveola, Shilla system was used to reconstruct occlusal plane. In this case, a 41 year-old male patient visited for fracture of 10 unit metal-ceramic fixed partial denture of upper anterior teeth and for overall treatment. Clinical, radiographical, model examination was held, full mouth rehabilitation was achieved by placing dental implant. Maxillo-oral relation was recorded using Gothic arch Tracer complex and were mounted. And for the next step, we estimated original occlusal plane using Shilla system. After analysis we produced diagnosis wax pattern. On the basis of this, radiography stent was manufactured and dental implant was placed, and temporary prosthesis was made by using diagnosis wax pattern. Cross mounting and anterior guiding table were performed in order to reproduce temporary restoration morphology and bite pattern, followed by final restoration made of all ceramic crown with zirconia coping. As stated above, appropriately esthetic and functional results can be seen in using Shilla system in diagnosis and treatment procedure of full mouth rehabilitation patient.

Intellectual disability is an imperfect disorder in which mental development is permanently retarded and development of intellectual ability is inadequate. Having intellectual disabilities makes it difficult to handle their own work and adapt to social life. For this reason, it is difficult to hygienically manage the patient's oral condition, multiple caries are easily observed, and the periodontal disease incidence rate is high. The patient in this case is a 33-year-old female with a mental retardation first grade who had a problem with meals. In first visit, Patients had decreased occlusal vertical dimension and posterior bite collapse due to periodontitis and multiple caries. This case reports a satisfactory functional and esthetic results by reconstructing occlusion using partial removable dental prosthesis.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to confirm the reliability of a cone beam computed tomography (CBCT)-generated panoramic view based on a CBCT 3D image and to find the most helpful 2D panoramic image compared with CBCT 3D image when examining the mesiodistal tooth axis. Methods: A test model was constructed according to cephalometric norms. The test model was repeatedly repositioned for CBCT and panoramic radiographic imaging. Panoramic radiographs were acquired at each of the following 3 occlusal plane positions: $-5^{\circ}$, $0^{\circ}$, and $+5^{\circ}$. Measurements of mesiodistal tooth axis in CBCT 3D image, CBCT-generated panoramic view, and panoramic radiographs were compared. Results: Compared with the CBCT-generated panoramic view, CBCT 3D image showed significant difference in the mesiodistal tooth axis in the premolars and no significant difference in the mesiodistal tooth axis in the incisors and canines. Mesiodistal tooth axis on the CBCT-generated panoramic view was significantly different from that on panoramic radiographs. Conclusions: CBCT-generated panoramic view can be a useful tool for evaluating mesiodistal tooth axis.
