The purpose of this study was to observe the pattern of bone remodellings in the periodontal ligament of dog, in which experimental tooth movement was performed A control and 5 experimental dogs, one and half year in age, were studied. Light force (50-75g) was applied by placing open-coil spring between left mandibular premolars ; heavy force (250-300g), between right mandibular premolars. Experimental dogs were sacrificed at 12 hours, 1, 3 ,7 and 14 days after force application, respectively. And soft X-ray films were obtained and read on the sectioned periodontal tissue around mandibular premolars. The results were as follows. 1. New bone formation began to be observed in tension side at 7-day and increased at 14-day , No difference was observed between light force group and heavy force group. 2. Bone resorption was observed as a shape of destruction of lamina dura at 3-day and increased gradually at 7-day, 14-day.

This study was performed to simulate various sizes of periapical lesions and condensing osteitis in bone and to clarify that condensing osteitis would give a greater radiographic contrast because of the more radiopacity immediately adjacent to the lesion and what the lamina dura on radiogram is in bone. For this study, two dry and wet human adult mandible and a cadaver were used. Each mandible was sectioned longitudinally to split lingual and buccal cortical plates to gain better access to the apex of tooth. Lesions were gradually enlarged and bordered with tooth ash that burned out at 950℃ for the reproduction of condensing osteitis in sequence. The serial radiograms were taken under the constantly maintained condition and compared with the actual lesions.

The aim of this study was to investigate the thickness of alveolar lamina dura and alveolar bone height by the change of periodontal status. The periapical radiograms of the 853 cases were taken by paralleling technique. The conclusions from this study were as follows: 1. In the normal periodontal status, the alveolar lamina dura was the thickest at alveolar crest, followed by apex, midroot, and the average thickness of the posterior teeth was thicker than that of the anterior teeth. 2. In Russel's Periodontal Index 0 and 1, no significant differences of thickness were found to be 3 areas. In Russel's Periodontal Index 2 and 6, the thickness of alveolar lamina dura at alveolar crest was decreased, only. 3. In Russel's Periodontal Index 0 and 1, distance from the cemento-enamel junction to the alveolar crest was within 1.5㎜. In Russel's Periodontal Index 2 and 6, the distance was 3. increased over 1.5㎜.

종양유발성 골연화증은 종양에 의하여 생성된 활동성 펩티드호르몬과 유사한 물질이 골이나 위장관에 작용하여 칼슘대사와 인대사의 변화를 일으키거나, 정상적인 비타민 D대사에 장애를 일으킴으로써 2차적으로 발생되는 대사성 질환으로 알려져 있다. 이의 발생빈도는 매우 낮으며, 임상적으로는 체중과 신장의 감소, 전신적인 골격의 동통 및 근무력증과 병적 골절이 동반되어 나타난다. 방사선사진에서는 골소주의 전반적인 소실, 피질골의 비박, 위골절, 치조백선의 소실 등을 보이고, 실험실 소견에서는 혈청인의 농도와 신세뇨관에서 인의 재흡수율의 감소 및 혈청 알칼리성 인산화효소 농도의 상승이 관찰된다. 본질환은 종양이 제거되면 별도의 부가적인 치료 없이도 임상적, 방사선학적 소견 및 실험실 소견의 뚜렷한 개선을 보이므로 이의 치료에 있어서 정확한 진단이 매우 중요하다. 저자들은 전신적인 동통과 근무력증을 주소로 내원한 환자들에게서 발생된 종양유발성 골연화증 3예를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 이를 보고하는 바이다.

Hypophosphatemic rickets is lack of reponse to physiologic doses of vitamin D, different from the vitamin D-dependent rickets. It is inherited in an X-linked dominant fashion. The prime features of this disorder are lowered serum phosphate levels, elevated serum alkaline phosphatase and normal serum calcium levels. The dental manifestation often include apical radiolucencies, abscess and fistulas of clinically sound teeth. Dental radiographs show ricketic bone trabeculations, abscent or abnormal lamina dura and abnormal cementum. This case which was diagnosed to hypophosphatemic rickets, showed multiple spontaneous periapical abscess and gingival fistula enlarged pulp chambers, extension of the pulp horns into the cusp tips and delayed eruption.

This article describes cases of applying non-surgical treatment including scaling and root planing, occlusal adjustment and tooth splinting of periodontally compromised lower anterior incisors Clinical and radiographic evaluations were performed over a 1-3-year period. All clinical parameters and radiographic bone levels improved in both cases. Dramatic regeneration of alveolar bone and lamina dura were observed on radiographic images, and no specific complications occurred during the follow-up period. Within the limitations of this study, these cases demonstrated the possibility of tooth rescue through non-surgical treatment and splinting of periodontally compromised teeth typically considered for extraction.

Incidence of crown-root fracture due to traumatic injury, have been reported 3% in the permanent dentiton, 2% in the deciduous dentition. There are two treatment methods for crown-root fractured teeth with pulp exposure, when the fracture line was located under the alveolar crest. One way is the extrusion by orthodontic force the other way is intra-alveolar transplantation which occlusally repositioning of apical fragment in the alveolar socket. Since intra-alveolar transplantation has introduced in 1970s, it was practiced as alternative to orthodontic extrusion. As the result, this method may thoughted that had a good prognosis. As a result of trauma, completely crown-root fracture was occured in the maxillary right central incisor in this case. We couldn't reposition the deepest fracture line above the alveolar crest by the conventional surgical extrusion, because apical fragment was too short. Thus, after extraction of apical fragment, we repositioned it to the socket following demineralized freezed dried bone graft, which possible to support the apical fragment. At the 15-month recall examination, the root still showed normal mobility and there was not observed any in flammatory or replacement root resorption in the periapical radiograph.

저자는 18세부터 24세의 남녀 5명의 치근단병소가 있는 전치에 iodoform paste로 근관과잉충전을 한후 X-선상으로 그 흡수 현상을 관찰 하였던 바 다음과 같은 결론은 얻었다. 1) 비록 동종의 근관충전용 호제(paste)로 근관충전치료를 하였어도 각치아에서의 흡수율에는 큰 차이가 있었다. 2) 요도포름호제의 흡수율은 3,4주에서 보다 1,2주에서 더 빠르게 나타났다. 3) 치근관내에서의 흡수율은 상당히 느렸으며 2주후에 흡수가 나타난 예도 있었다. 4) 치료후 4주간에서는 확산성, 침윤성, 침윤성증상이 X-선상에 나타났으나 3개월후에는 뚜렷한 경계를 가진 병소부를 볼 수 있었으며, 치조골구조의 변화는 병소부의 주위에 신생골의 정밀한 증식으로 연속적인 백선이 형성된 것을 볼 수 있었다.

Trauma from occlusion(TFO) is injury to the periodontal tissue as a result of occlusal forces. Mobility is a common clinical sign of occlusal trauma. In acute occlusal trauma, this may be accomanied by pain, tenderness to percussion, thermal sensitivity, and pathologic tooth migration. Chronic occlusal trauma may be marked by excessive wear and gingival recession. Radiographic finding include a widened periodontal ligament space, radiolucence and condensation of the alveolar bone and root resorption. TFO is related to the pathogenesis of periodontal disease. It can cause increased tooth mobility TFO itself does not initate or aggravate marginal gingivitis or initiate periodontal pockets. Active trauma can accelerate bone loss, pocket formation and gingival recession depending on the presence of local irritants and inflammation. Gingival recession associated with occlusal forces includes traumatic crescent, McCall's festoon and Stillman's cleft. TFO plays a minor role in the pathogenesis of early to moderate periodontitis. A 5-year-old male visited Yonsei University Pedodontics clinic with a chief complaint about gingival recession. Mobility, excessive wear, gingival recession were detected by clinical exam on the both mandibular deciduous ca nine. On the radiographic view, vertical alveolar bone loss was observed on both mandibular deciduous canine.

The author observed a 35-year-old male patient who came to the Dental Infirmary of Kyungpook National University Hospital who had complained of gradual swelling on both side of the mandible for 15 years. As a result of careful analysis of clinical, radiological and histopathological findings, the authors diagnosed it as cementifying fibroma and obtained the results as follows: 1. In clinical examination, main clinical symptom was facial deformity due to gradual swelling on both side of the mandible. 2. In radiographic examination, radiolucent lesions with central radiopaque foci were seen on both mandibular body areas bilaterally, and cortical thinning and expansion of the mandibular body were seen buccolingually. And loss of lamina dura and root resortption of adjacent teeth were also seen. In histopathological examination, this lesion was composed of delicate interlacing collagen fibers interspersed by the fibroblasts and cementoblasts. And round or oval shaped basophilic masses of cementum-like tissue were observed in the connective tissue.
