This study aimed to find out the effects of oral health education between the experiment group and the control group upon motivating them using oral facial program in 56 subjects including 29 members in the experiment group and 26 in the test group. With the collected data, Wilcoxon signed rank test was performed to understand the difference before and after the program. OHBI in the experiment group showed significantly higher than the control group (p<0.05), mean values after the program with $9.57{\pm}1.44$ and $8.68{\pm}1.46$ points in the experiment group and the control group, respectively. Mean QHI score in the experiment group was $1.00{\pm}.14$ points after the program while that in the test group was $1.03{\pm}.23$, demonstrating lower in the experiment group but not statistically significant. Mean scores of program satisfaction level were $4.13{\pm}.17$ and $3.94{\pm}.22$ points in the experiment group and the control group, respectively, demonstrating statistically significant. Based on the study results, the effects of oral health education using orofacial program showed the differences between the groups in dental plaque index and oral health behavior index. It is worth to use the oral facial exercise program as a tool for improving the authoring function and oral hygiene.

사회가 복잡다단 하여짐에 따라 스트레스의 증가는 각종 정신신체질환의 발현빈도를 증가시켜 악구강 영역에서도 악관절 동통을 포함한 광범위한 악안면 동통을 유발하고 있다. 악안면 동통 환자의 치료시에는 수술과 같은 비가역적(관혈적) 치료방법을 선택하기에 앞서 환자에 손상이 적고 경제적 부담도 적은 가역적(보존적)치료 방법을 우선 선택하여야겠다. 이에 본 악안면 동통 진료실에 방법 및 그 증례에 대해 소개하고자 한다.

Overall study was carried out for the patients visiting Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery through Emergency Room in Chonnam University Hospital, from Jan. 1, 1992 to Dec. 31, 1996. Result obtained were as follows ; Male predilection was shown, the male to female ratio being 2.5 to 1. The frequently developing age group were the first 3rd and 4th decade and under the age of 9 was followed. The number of patients for emergency was peak in September and October to 11%. About the causes for emergency, traffic accident was the most, and fall down injury and assault were followed. About the injury lists, facial laceration was preceded and the next facial bone fracture and the tooth injury followed. In the facial bone fracture, fracture in the mandible only was the most, and zygomaticomaxillary complex fracture, and mandible-maxilla complex fracture were followed. when the case of the mandible fracture, symphysis, condyle, angle were marked in succession. 57% was predomunatly ranged in the timea of 18 : 00 to 03 : 00 for the emergency. From injury onset to visiting emergency room, the range of 8 hours to 12 hours was predominant. Above results suggest that urgent patients of oral and maxillofacial area were relatively so high that division of oral and maxillofacial surgery should be established immediately.

Botulinum neurotoxin(BoNT) is a protease exotoxin produced from Clostridium botulinum. It works by blocking the release of acetylcholine from cholinergic nerve endings causing inactivity of muscles or glands. Recently, the therapeutic use of BoNT have expanded to include a wide range of medical and dental conditions. Botulinum neurotoxin type A(BoNT/A) is used off-label in the orofacial region to treat primary and secondary masticatory and facial muscle spasm, severe bruxism, facial tics, orofacial dyskinesias, dystonias, and hypertrophy of the masticatory muscles. Local hematoma, infection, and persistent pain in the injection site are the site-of-injection side effects. Medication-related side effects are adjacent muscle weakness, slurred speech, an alteration in the character of the saliva, and severe headaches. In most cases, these complications are not persistent and bothersome. We reported a case report of a patient who had transient anterior open bite after BoNT/A injection on masseter muscles to treat the refractory myofascial pain.

Panfacial fractures require complex multidisciplinary approaches for treatment. Functional stability of bilateral condylar-disc complex should be the goal of the treatment. A patient with complex clinical panfacial fractures, including a bilateral condylar fractures visited our clinic. Facial asymmetry, insufficient vertical space and multiple missing teeth of the patient were major problems. Closed reduction and splint treatment were tried for stable condylar position. A functional and esthetic rehabilitation was accomplished by using implants and full mouth rehabilitaion. Potential possibilities of unstable occlusion should be prevented with night guard and periodic occlusal adjustment.

Malignant lymphomas are neoplasms with diffuse proliferation of neoplastic lymphocytes and their precursor cells. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, which is a subtype of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, rarely occurs in the head and neck area and is especially rare in the maxillary sinus. We report a case of a 76-year-old female patient who was referred to the oral and maxillofacial surgery office for evaluation of a dental abscess as a clinical diagnosis. Laboratory tests revealed no signs of inflammation or infection; therefore, incisional biopsy was performed. The final diagnosis was diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in the maxillary sinus. Here we describe this case with a review of relevant literature.

구강안면동통환자의 발통점에 대한 보존적 치료방법중 저출력레이저의 효과를 평가하기 위해 교근, 측두근과 승모근에 발통점을 가진 치과대학생 69명을 무작위로 분류하여 37명에게는 GaAlAs 반도체 레이저를 조사하였고 나머지 32명은 레이저를 실제로 조사하지 않고 대조군으로 삼았다. 50mW, 820nm의 GaAlAs 반도체 레이저를 이용하여, 4주 동안 첫 주는 2회, 이후 3주 동안 1회씩 총 5회 조사하였고 전자통각계를 이용하여 압력통각역치를 측정한 후 이를 대조군과 비교한 바 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 남녀 및 조사군과 비조사군의 치료 전 압력통각역치는 차이가 없었다. 2. 조사군의 각 근육에서 측정한 압력통각역치는 레이저 치료 2주 후부터 유의하게 높아졌으나 비조사군에서는 차이가 없었다, 3. 비조사군의 치료 전, 후 압력통각역치에는 성 차가 없었다. 반면 종사군의 압력통각역치는 치료 전에는 성 차가 없었으나 치료 후에는 남성이 여성보다 유의하게 높았다.
