The World Health Organisation(WHO), paying attention to the spread and fatality of the coronavirus(COVID-19), which first occurred in Wuhan, China, declared a global emergency. Although many countries implement strict measures to slow down the spread, WHO officially declared a pandemic. COVID-19 has sparked fears of an impending economic crisis and recession. Due to the economic crisis caused by social distancing, self-isolation and travel restrictions, the collapse of the world economic system centered on free trade and the decline of globalization are mentioned. Political leadership that has not responded properly to the pandemic is challenged, and nearly all of society is rapidly changing to a non-contact and immobile culture. COVID-19 has seriously affected all levels of the education system, from preschool to tertiary education. The so-called old concept of deschooling is realizing in the field of education through digital media paradoxically. Church education is facing a serious crisis as well. Churches are seeking now a new normal that includes theological reflection on the pandemic, online worship, education, and non-face-to-face ministry to overcome the worst unexpected crisis. In the post-corona era, church education must actively seek alternatives in response to rapidly changing surrounding conditions and reconstruct educational philosophy(theology) that focuses on Christian values. In addition, it is necessary to start operating a mobile(or online) church school that combines offline and online. It is necessary to introduce 'Blended Learning' method that combines non-face-to-face and face-to-face learning, and by combining church school and homeschooling, churches and families need to share the responsibility of education in faith.

The purpose of this study is to find that people's visit to a dementia home exhibition hall is effective at improving their perception of dementia. The satisfaction of visitors to the dementia home exhibition hall and a change in their perception of dementia after the visit were analyzed. The study subjects were 52 residents in S city. This study had been conducted from April, 5 to May, 25, 2018. The dementia home exhibition hall has welfare kits installed in an entrance, a rest room, a living, and a kitchen. Virtual reality experience program and the program of wearing clothes to experience an elderly person were performed together. As a result, the visitors' satisfaction was high overall, and their visit was educationally effective at improving their perception of dementia. After their visit to the hall, the residents showed high increases in the scores of the questions about the perception of dementia causes, dynamism & system, symptoms & diagnosis, and treatment & prevention. The residents with middle years and higher of age were more satisfied than those in other age groups with the introduction of dementia, and prevention methods, introduction of safe and comfortable home environment, and appropriateness of experience program. In this study, it was positive that the differentiated experience program which was not existed actively led the participation of the target person and attracted high education satisfaction in a short time. In the future, it will be necessary to develop an extended experience program, provide an environment for direct experience of dementia, and perform a continuous program to draw more citizens' attention.

The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of radiation mutant Perilla frutescens var. crispa on bone metabolism and the inflammatory response in a monosodium iodoacetateinduced rat model of osteoarthritis. radiation mutant Perilla frutescens var. crispa was administered orally at doses of 25, 50 or 100 mg/kg/day for 2 weeks before direct injection of monosodium iodoacetate (3 mg/50 μl of 0.9% saline) into the intra-articular space of the rats' right knees. The rats subsequently received the same doses of oral radiation mutant Perilla frutescens var. crispa for another 4 weeks. It was evaluated that the treatment effects based on serum biomarkers, and morphological and histopathological analysis of the knee joints. Compared with those in control rats, the radiation mutant Perilla frutescens var. crispa treatments significantly reduced the serum levels of inflammation, bone metabolism markers (i.e., COX-2, LTB4, MMP-3, and COMP), and the amount of fibrous tissue. Otherwise, it was significantly increased the concentration of TIMP-1 and calcitonin. In addition, the radiation mutant Perilla frutescens var. crispa treatments effectively preserved the knee cartilage and synovial membrane. As a result, it indicates that radiation mutant Perilla frutescens var. crispa prevented and alleviated osteoarthritis symptoms. Thus, radiation mutant Perilla frutescens var. crispa can be used in food and drug material for the management of osteoarthritis.

Amelogenesis imperfecta characterized as abnormally formed enamel is caused by a defect of unique group of genes. Patients affected by this disease might have difficulties in social and psychological aspects due to non-esthetic teeth as well as functional problems caused by enamel detachment and tooth wear from their early ages. Adult patients with amelogenesis imperfecta can be treated with full-mouth restorations, which make functional and esthetic rehabilitations of severely worn tooth. However, the anterior open bite and lack of occlusal clearance for posterior teeth restorations due to compensatory extrusion are the intervening factors in the prosthetic treatment. Therefore, the determination of anterior tooth lengths, vertical dimension, and anterior guidance should be set carefully. Recently, computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) techniques help systematic approaches and enable dentists to reduce time-consuming procedures in the diagnosis and treatment of full-mouth rehabilitation. This case report demonstrates the successful full mouth rehabilitation using a CAD/CAM system in a young adult patient with amelogenesis imperfecta and anterior open bite.

Shell teeth, a rare dysplastic condition of dentin, was first described by Rushton in 1954. It is characterized by normal enamel, extremely thin dentin, correspondingly large pulp chambers, and shortened roots. This case report is of a male 3 years old. He is refered to the Chosun University dental hospital Pediatric Dentistry because of dental caries and dentin hypoplasia. Intra-oral examination showed attrition of all primary teeth. Radiographic examination showed that the pulps were extremely large with only a shell of surrounding hard tissue. The permanent premolars were missed congenitally. The diagnosis was shell teeth. Because of behavior problem, all dental treatment was undertaken with general anaesthesia. Extration, endodontic treatment and SS crown were performed. The patient has now been wearing the space maintainer and manages it well. The patient is seen intervals for supervision and follow-up care.

Oligodontia is defined as the congenital absence of six or more teeth in dentition, excluding the third molars. The prevalence of congenital missing teeth is about 1.6 to 9.6% of population and the prevalence of oligidontia is about 0.08 to 1.1%. The mandibular second premolar is the most frequently absent after the third molar, followed by the maxillary lateral incisor and upper second premolar. Females seem to be affected slightly more than males. Oligodontia may occur either in isolation, or as a part of a syndrome such as ectodermal dysplasia. Different causes are possible for oligodontia: physical obstruction or distruction of the dental lamina, space limitation, functional abnormalities of the dental epithelium, failure of induction of the underlying mesenchyme, chemotherapy, radiotherapy or genetic factor. Because oligodontia would result in esthetic and functional problems, such as facial asymmetry or occlusal disharmony, early diagnosis from clinical and radiographic examination was necessary. And appropriate treatment plan should be followed. This case report was about oral conditions and treatment of the oligodontia patients who have no specific systemic disease.

While periodontal disease results in the extrusion of upper incisors with interdental spacing in adult patient, the intrusive movement should be executed for the rehabilitation in terms of esthetics and function. The present study was peformed to investigate the periodontal response following orthodontic intrusion of teeth with infrabony pocket. Bone defect and periodontal disease were produced adjacent to the both maxillary second lateral incisors in four adult dogs. Four weeks later, a flap operation was performed to eliminate inflammation and a reference notch was made on the root surface at the level of bottom of each defect. Two weeks after periodontal surgery, 4 weeks of intrusion and subsequent another 4 weeks of retention was executed on the right side of incisors while left incisors served as the control. Through the histologic analysis, following results were obtained. 1. Histologic section of control side showed the reduction of pocket depth after flap operation. However, the status of long junctional epithelium was observed while new connective tissue attachment occurred in a small area adjacent newly formed cementum 2. Epithelial attachment was less around the intruded incisor while new connective tissue attachment was much more compared to the control side. 3. Plenty of cells were observed in the connective tissue around the reference notch of the intruded incisor and the degree of the new cementum formation was higher in the intruded incisor than the control. The results of the present study suggested that an orthodontic intrusion of periodontally involved and extruded incisors could be carried out with a desirable periodontal response, provided that inflammation is under control.

The Inhalation of certain freshly formed metal oxides can cause metal fume fever, which is an acute, self-limiting, flu-like illness. The most common cause of this syndrome is the inhalation of zinc oxide. The inhalation of zinc oxide can lead to tracheobronchiolitis, chemical pulmonary edema or to respiratory failure and acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS). We encountered a 43-years-old man who developed severe dyspnea after inhaling of zinc oxide while working for 5 hours in a closed space. He was diagnosed with ARDS and was treated successfully with glucocorticoid. We report a case of ARDS caused by the inhalation of zinc fumes.

Ectopic eruption and impaction of canines is a frequently encountered clinical problems. The incidence of impaction ranges between 1-3%. The cause of canine impaction can be the result of localized factors or can be a polygenic multifactorial inheritance and associated with other dental anomalies. The general dentist and pediatric dentist should know how to properly diagnose and manage potential disturbances in the eruption of maxillary canine. Diagnosis of impacted canine at age 8-10 years can significantly reduce serious ramifications, including surgical exposure and orthodontic traction as well as root resorption of the lateral incisors. Extraction of primary canine would be one of the method to prevent the impaction. The surgical procedure should be designed to minimize the destruction of periodontal tissue of impacted canine. Closed eruption technique is thought to be optimal method of surgical exposure compared with other methods. An overview of the incidence, sequela as well as the surgical periodontal, and orthodontic consideration in the management of impacted canine was presented.
