Autotransplantation of teeth with complete roots is being increasingly performed for orthodontic treatment or for replacement of unsalvageable teeth, but this procedure has lower survival and success rates than those obtained following transplantation of teeth with incomplete root formation. While previous autotransplantation procedures used only models of the donor tooth and recipient site, surgical guide templates created using 3D-printing technology are now available. They allow shaping of the recipient site in proper direction and to the correct depth, thereby reducing the treatment time and improving the success and survival rates. Herein, we report a case involving autotransplantation of a tooth with complete roots at the site of a congenitally missing permanent tooth using surgical guide templates generated with 3D-printing technology. The procedure resulted in favorable healing of the transplanted tooth.

Traumatic injury on tooth occurs frequently among trauma patients, and mainly occurs on tooth with premature roots which influences pulp tissue, periodontal ligament, alveolar bone, and Hertwig's epithelial root sheath. According to the degree of trauma, a number of kinds of healing process can be observed, such as complete re-vascularization of pulp, root canal obliteration, growth suspension of root apex, and invasion of alveolar bone into root canal, and there can be some complications such as necrotic change of inflammatory root resorption and partial pulp necrosis due to pulp necrosis toward complete necrosis. In this clinical case, 3 patients who had traumatic injury showed root growth suspension and alveolar bone invasion into root canal due to proliferation of periodontal ligament cell and osteocyte at the base of extraction socket into pulp chamber because of the injury on Hertwig's epithelial root sheath. If intrusion of alveolar bone into root canal due to injury on Hertwig's epithelial root sheath after having traumatic injury doesn't show any complication, the pulp may be considered to have normal vitality and doesn't need any further treatment, therefore differential diagnosis is very necessary. However, it may be accompanied with suspension of root growth, therefore, additional trauma during the treatment of injured tooth should not be applied.

In general, a drilled shaft embedded in weathered rock has a large load bearing capacity. Therefore, most of the load tests are performed only up to the load level that confirms the pile design load capacity, and stopped much before the ultimate load of the pile is attained. If a reliable ultimate load value can be extracted from the premature load test data, it will be possible to greatly improve economic efficiency as well as pile design quality. The main purpose of this study is to propose a method for judging the reliability of the ultimate load of piles that is obtained from extrapolated load test data. To this aim, ten static load test data of load-displacement curves were obtained from testing of piles to their failures from 3 different field sites. For each load-displacement curve, loading was assumed as 25%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, and 90% of the actual pile bearing capacity. The limited known data were then extrapolated using the hyperbolic function, and the ultimate capacity was re-determined for each extrapolated data by the Davisson method (1972). Statistical analysis was performed on the reliability of the re-evaluated ultimate loads. The results showed that if the ratio of the maximum-available displacement to the predicted displacement exceeds 0.6, the extrapolated ultimate load may be regarded as reliable, having less than a conservative 20% error on average. The applicability of the proposed method of judgment was also verified with static load test data of driven piles.

This study investigated how music therapists perceive the professionalism of the profession. A total of 98 certified music therapists completed the online survey for a 46.7% response rate, and 78 questionnaires were included in the analysis after excluding incomplete responses. The results of this study demonstrated that music therapists show a high level of standards for music therapy professionalism in general. Meanwhile, the respondents gave their lowest rating on the perception of their occupation as a social service addressing the needs of society. The majority of respondents rated the level of their professionalism as high and they tended to identify individual competency as the most important factor. Also, there were significant differences in perceived professionalism depending on the length of clinical practice and level of education. These results indicate that the quality of training may contribute to a high level of perception on professionalism. Also, lower levels of perception on social aspects of the professionalism support the need for continuing education to broaden the understanding of professionalism. Given the importance of professionalism in enhancing the quality of care for clients and expanding the profession, further studies were suggested to increase understanding of the music therapy professionalism and propose strategies for maintaining the professionalism of music therapists.

In this paper, in order to offer the opportunity to indirectly experience STEAM education and the profession of a quantum computer professional, one of computer experts as a promising occupation of the future, its correlation to the national curriculum was analyzed. STEAM educational program in this paper was developed through which the third or fourth graders in elementary schools can learn about a quantum computer expert and think about it in relevance to their future careers. Yet, it's almost impossible for the students to understand the basic theories of quantum computer based on quantum mechanics, one of most difficult areas of physics. Accordingly, in this proposed textbook, gamification mechanism was applied to arouse students' interest. Moreover, the textbook was developed and applied to the field directly in the way that students would be able to indirectly experience quantum spin, one of most basic principles of quantum computer, quantum cryptography related to quantum computer, incomplete quantum computer and etc. The STEAM educational program for future careers offered in this research is expected to create positive effects for students to explore careers relevant to IT, and to develop related qualities.

The national government, as well as many regional governments, have supported the 'Ppuri industries', and the Daejeon region is in need of developing these sectors. Various research studies have examined the ppuri industries. However, there are limited studies concerning innovative activities and difficulties in the industries. Therefore, this paper focuses on firms' innovative activities and difficulties in the ppuri industries in the Daejeon region and provides policy implications. For this purpose, we surveyed firms supported by Daejeon Technopark's Ppuri industries programs, utilizing an innovation survey questionnaire developed by STEPI. We assumed that these firms have high intention for innovation among firms in the Daejeon's ppruri industries, and tried to identify characteristics and problems of innovative activities by comparing results with those of STEPI's Korean Innovation Survey. The results show that the overall pattern of innovative activities of Daejeon's ppuri industry firms do not differ from those found in the Korean Innovation Survey. However, there are a few notable differences. The rate of aborted innovation in the Daejoen's ppuri industries was higher than those found in the Korean Innovation Survey. Lack of financing was a major factor hampering innovation. These results provide policy implications that industrial and regional characteristics of ppuri industries must be reflected in the policy, and also policy measures for lowering the rate of aborted innovation.

Morphology of primary root divergency and curvature determines the pattern of root resorption and periapical lesion, and affects successful root canal treatment. With the purpose of analysing the morphology of primary mandibular second molar roots and canals, the frequency, angle, radius, and start of curvature of the canal were measured. Fifty clinical radiographs were taken from $3{\sim}6$ years old children, followed by digitizing after scanning and analyzing by Scion image Beta 4.02TM(Scion Co. USA). The angle of curvature was determined by Schneider's method and the radius of curvature was determined by Schaefer's method. The results were as follows: 1. The angle of curvatures were $17.3^{\circ}{\pm}5.0$ (mesial), and $27.9^{\circ}{\pm}6.0$ (distal). Distal curvature was significantly larger than mesial.(p<0.05) 2. The radius of curvatures were $8.7mm{\pm}2.5$ (mesial), and $5.8\;mm{\pm}1.5$ (distal). Mesial curvature was significantly larger than distal.(p<0.05) 3. The start of curvatures were $4.1mm{\pm}0.6$ (mesial), and $4.2mm{\pm}0.6$ (distal). There were no difference between two groups. (P<0.05)

In this study, problems of software completeness appraisal are pointed out and their solutions are presented by analyzing appraisal cases and judicial precedents. Completeness appraisal, ready-made appraisal, defect appraisal, and cost appraisal have been classified as and have been evaluated with extant software completeness appraisals. From a legal point of view, and in judicial precedents, however, there is a big difference between the definition of completeness and the completion rate. This is because the degree of completeness is evaluated under the premise that the software's development is complete, whereas the ready-made appraisal inspects the development progress of unfinished software. Often, in cases involving software completion rate, the total completion level is calculated by weighting each step of the software development process. However, completeness evaluations use the software's realization-operation as its sole criterion. In addition, another issue not addressed in existing software completeness appraisal cases is that there is no mention of who is responsible for software defects, whereas in case law, the responsible party is determined by finding who caused the dispute. In this paper, we systematically classify these problems, and present a novel evaluation method that separates software completeness evaluations from software completion evaluations.

Impaction is defined as the cessation of the eruption of the tooth caused by a clinically or radiographically detectable physical barrier in the eruption path or by the ectopic position of tooth germ. Besides the third molars and the maxillary canines, the most common impacted tooth is the second premolar. The overall frequency of premolar impaction has been reported to be 0.5%. In some cases, orthodontic traction and surgical repositioning may be indicated. When impacted second premolar is involved with prolonged retained second primary molar, extraction of primary molar and space maintenance lead to eruption of second premolar. In these cases, all patients visited to department of pediatric dentistry of Kyungpook National University Hospital for the chief complaint of unerupted second premolar. Extraction of prolonged retained second primary molar and space management are tried for spontaneous eruption of impacted second premolar tooth. The results were as follows: 1. When impacted second premolar is involved with prolonged retained second primary molar, minimal treatment via elimination of primary molar leads to successful results. 2. Proper space management and periodic radiographic examination are required before eruption of second premolar. 3. Sufficient time must be allowed for confirm of tooth movement before orthodontic traction or surgical repositioning. 4. The result is more successful in incomplete root development.

This case report describes an uncommon treatment method for crown-root fractured incisor with immature root. A 7-year-old girl was referred for treatment of crown-root fractured maxillary central incisor. The fracture line extended to 1/2 of the total tooth length with incomplete root formation. The prognosis of crown-root fracture is usually poor and extraction is usually undertaken. But, in the mixed dentition, extraction of maxillary permanent incisor results in many complications, such as resorption of alveolar bone, poor esthetics, pronunciation and mastication. Conservative therapy in the permanent dentition comprises of few treatment modalities; supragingival restoration, gingivectomy, orthodontic extraction of apical fragment, surgical extrusion of apical fragment with or without rotational replantation. However, in this case, these indications are not applicable, so intentional replantation with adhesive resin system is the treatment of choice. The tooth was followed-up for 12 months. Currently, there are no symptoms. Since this modality adopts the respective advantages of both intentional replantation and adhesive treatment, it might be the treatment of choice in cases of vertical crown-root fracture.
