중증 만성 치주염과 1L-1B+3954 및 1L-1A+4845 유전자의 대립유전자 2 보유 유전자 다변성이 관련된다고 보고되었다. 그러나 이러한 1L-1 복합유전자 다변성과 만성 치주염 및 급진성 치주염과의 관련성에 대해서는 상반되게 보고되고 있는데 이는 인종적 배경과 질환특성의 차이에 기인한 것으로 보인다. 이 연구는 한국인에서 경도, 중등도와 중증의 만성 치주염 그리고 급진성 치주염 환자를 대상으로 하여 1L-1A+4845, 1L-1B+3954, 1L1B-511, 1L-1 RN intron 2 (VNTR) 유전자 다변성의 분포를 평가하고, 치주질환의 심도와 유형에 관련되는지 알아보고자 시행되었다. 전남대학교 병원 치주과에서 검진과 치료를 받은 100명의 치주질환자를 대상으로 하였고 질환군은 치주낭 깊이, 부착 소실, 골 소실을 기준으로 하여 경도, 중등도, 중증의 만성 치주염, 급진성 치주염군으로 분류하였다. 대조군으로는 전남대학교 병원 소아치과에 내원한 전신적으로 건강한 92명의 아동을 포함하였다. 각 대상 환자에서 채취된 협점막상피에서 genomic DNA를 얻어 1L-1A+4845, 1L-1B+3954, 1L-1B-511 genotype은 중합효소 연쇄반응을 시행한 후 제한 효소분해과정을 거쳐 전기영동 후 분리한 결과를 해석하였으며 1L-1 RN(VNTR) 유전형은 중합효소연쇄반응 후 분리한 결과를 해석하여 다음의 결과를 얻었다. 대립유전자 2 보유자 비율은 치주질환자에서 1L-1A+4845, 1L-1B+3954, 1L-1B-511, 1L-1 RN이 각각 61%, 13%, 76.6%, 34%였으며 대조군에서는 76.9%, 7.7%, 62.2%, 19.1%였다. 1L-1B+3954과 1L-1A+4845 대립유전자 2 보유자인 양성유전자형 비율은 경도, 중등도, 중증의 만성치주염, 급진성 치주염환자에서 각각 10%, 7.9%, 22.2%, 12% 였으며 치주질환자의 13%, 대조군의 7.7%에서 양성 복합유전자형(positive genotype)을 보였다. IL-1B-511 유전자 다변성은 치주질환자에서 대조군에 비하여 높았으며 급진성 치주염환자에서 대립유전자 2 보유자율이 유의하게 높았다(p<0.01). IL-1 RN intron 2 유전자 다변성은 중등도 및 중증 만성 치주염환자에서 대립유전자 2 보유자율이 유의하게 증가하였다. 이러한 결과는 IL-1 gene cluster의 유전형이 한국인에서도 치주염의 유형과 질환 심도에 관련될 수 있음을 시사하였다.

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of incisor protrusion on the mucogingival parameters including the width of attached gingiva. Thirty-seven young adults with lower anterior crowding were selected for this study. From the study model, the degrees of relative and absolute protrusions were measured for each lower incisor. Clinical non height, the width of keratinized gingiva, probing depth and the width of attached gingiva were measured with digital vernier calipers and Florida Probe System. Through comparing the difference of the above measurements between protruded and non-protruded incisors, and correlation analysis between each measurement, following results were obtained: 1. The protruded incisor showed narrow width of keratinized and attached gingiva comparing to non-protruded incisor. 2. The protruded incisor showed greater clinical crown height comparing to non-protruded side while there was no difference in the probing depth between protruded and non-protruded side. 3. The difference in the width of attached gingiva between protruded and non-protruded incisors showed higher significance in the lateral incisor than in the central incisor. 4. The degree of relative protrusion showed higher correlation with the width of attached gingiva than the degree of absolute protrusion. 5. Clinical crown height showed higher correlation with the width of attached gingiva than the degree of protrusion.

Peri-implantitis, in which inflammation caused by plaque and biofilm on the implant surface spreads to the hard tissue, can be treated by decontamination of the implant surface and reconstruction of the lost hard tissue through surgical methods. We have described the management of 3 peri-implantitis cases by decontamination of the implant surface using a round titanium brush and regenerative therapy. All cases showed clinical improvements, and no further radiographic bone loss was observed during a 2-year follow-up. This treatment method can be effective for clinical improvement and bone regeneration. However, a longer follow-up period is necessary to support these outcomes.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the periodontal status of end-stage renal disease patients undergoing dialysis and referred for intraoral evaluation prior to renal transplantation surgery with those having normal kidney function. Materials and Methods: Patients who had been undergoing dialysis for end-stage renal disease and been referred to the Dental Clinic Center by the Department of Nephrology at University Hospital for intraoral evaluation prior to kidney transplantation surgery. For comparison of periodontal status, subjects without abnormalities in kidney function were matched with the patients by age and gender and selected as healthy controls. The patients' age, gender, comorbidities, type of dialysis received, and duration of dialysis were investigated by reference to their medical records, and data on their periodontal status were analyzed via the relevant periodontal records. Results: A total of 102 patients, including 51 dialyzed patients and 51 healthy control group subjects, participated in this study. In the patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing dialysis with periodontal probing depth of 5 mm or more, percentage of sites with clinical attachment level of 4 mm or more, percentage of teeth with bleeding on probing, number of missing teeth, and ratio of moderate to severe periodontitis were all significantly greater than in the healthy controls. Conclusion: The periodontal status of end-stage renal disease patients undergoing dialysis and referred for intraoral evaluation prior to kidney transplantation was worse than that of healthy controls.

The purpose of this study was to quantify and compare the level of MMP-1 in the healthy or inflamed gingival tissue of patients with or without type 2 diabetic mellitus. We investigated whether mean amount of MMP-1 was changed by chronic periodontitis and type 2 DM. Gingival tissue samples were obtained during periodontal surgery or tooth extraction. According to the patient's systemic condition & clinical criteria of gingiva, each gingival sample was divided into the three group. Group 1(n=8) was clinically healthy gingiva without bleeding and no evidence of bone resorption or periodontal pockets, obtained from systemically healthy 8 patients. Group 2(n=8) was inflamed gingiva from patients with chronic periodontitis. Group 3(n=8) was inflamed gingiva from patients with chronic periodontitis and type 2 diabetes. Tissue samples were prepared and analyzed by Western blotting. The quantitative analysis of MMP-1 was performed using a densitometer and statistically analyzed by ANOVA. MMP-1 was expressed in all samples and an increased MMP-1 level was observed in group 2 compared to group 1 and decreased MMP-1 level was found group 3 compared to group 2, but the differences among 3 groups were not statistically significant. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that MMP-1 levels of inflamed gingiva of systemically healthy patient(group 2) were higher than normal gingiva of systemically health patients and although the severity of gingival inflammation in group 2 and 3 were similar, MMP-1 expression was decreased in diabetic patients than systemically healthy periodontal patients.

A patient with severe periodontitis has causative factors that cause pathological tooth movement, the occlusion is disintegrated, and the vicious cycle of worsening periodontitis is repeated. In particular, when pathological tooth movement occurs in the maxillary anterior region, the patient has an aesthetic sense of atrophy, and the quality of life was reduced. Therefore, when orthodontic treatment was added to patients with severe periodontitis, it promotes the formation of new bone, reduces periodontal cysts, and obtains clinical attachment, which leads to favorable results in prosthetic restoration, thereby enabling ideal occlusion, function and aesthetics. Periodontal treatment, orthodontic treatment, natural tooth restoration, and implant prosthesis were planned for patients with pathological tooth movement in the anterior region due to loss of occlusal support in the posterior region. As a result, an ideal restoration space was secured, a stable restoration of occlusal contact was formed, and the maxillary anterior teeth were aesthetically improved.

In order to determine the relationship between probing pocket depth and trypsin-like activity in subgingival plaque, probing pocket depth and loss of attachment were measured by Michigan-O probe on mandibular incisors of 30 patients with adult periodontitis. And the trypsin-like activity of Treponema denticola, Porphyromonas gingivalis, and Bacteroides forsythus was evaluated by the hydrolysis of N-Benzoyl-DL-Arginine-2-Naphthyla-mide (BANA) using PerioScan reagent cards(Oral-B Laboratories, Redwood City, CA). The obtained data were statistically analyzed by Microstat program. The results were as follows. 1. The number of teeth showing negative trypsin-like activity was more in shallow periodontal pocket groups, but the number of teeth showing positive trypsin-like activity was more in deep periodontal pocket groups. 2. There was a significant positive correlation between probing pocket depth and trypsin-like activity in subgingival plaque(y=0.413X - 0.955, r = 0.7024, p<0.001). 3. There was no consistent relationship between loss of attachment and trypsin-like activity in subgingival plaque(p>0.01).
