The use of the autogenous free fat is a well-known procedure to fill in superficial depressions resulting from the traumatic or congenital defects. The major donor site for this procedure was the abdominal subcutaneous fat or buttocks. In 1977, Egyedi was the first to report the use of the buccal fat pad as a pedicled graft. The buccal fat pad is a structure usually considered to be a nuisance when encountered in intraoral procedures such as facial bone osteotomies, elevation of buccal falp, or procedures on Stensen's duct. In these operations, appearance of the buccal fat pad complicates surgical exposure. The buccal fat pad is a lobulated convex mass of fatty tissue covered by a very delicate membrane, and is described as having a body from which four processes extend. These projection serve as a filling material between the various muscular structures in the area. Recently malar depression was augmented with the pedicled buccal fat pad in 3 cases, and it was used for the reconstruction of the nasolabial fold in one case.

Nine cauldrons have been recognized in the PVD (Pusan- Taegu Volcano-tectonic Depression) zone covering an area of nearly 7,000 $km^{2}$. They form characteristic landscape features with various mountains in the southeastern Kyongsang basin. Economically important ore deposits are also developed either in the ring fracture zone or the central pluton within the resurgent cauldrons or in the marginal area of the PVD, suggesting that these cauldrons played a major role in the distribution of ore deposits in the southeastern Kyongsang basin. Furthermore, the cauldron subsidences were more frequent with the more felsic volcano-plutonic complex, possibly indicating that the amounts of water and volatile components also acted as a controlling factor to cause the caldera subsidence and to concentrate the ore-forming elements in economic concentrations. The review of the relationship and variations of ore mineralization and cauldron subsidence is rather sketchy, but it provides a skeleton to carry out more detailed and quantitative studies related to temporal and spatial relationships between each cauldron subsidence accompanying its own ore mineralization. In the southeastern Kyongsang basin, additional calderas and associated ore deposits undoubtedly can be discovered through future detailed studies. The concept that cauldron subsidence are an important control for the formation of ore deposits will appear to be vindicated.

In non-growing Class III malocclusion, the critical aspects which determine the need of orthognatic surgery are the severity of skeletal discrepancy, incisor inclination, overbile and soft tissue profile. Two-jaw surgery is more effective in correcting severe sagittal, vertical, transverse skeletal discrepancies and facial asymmetry. And more esthetic and stable profile can be achieved by two-jaw surgery Some midfacial deficiency Patients can be treated by Pyramidal Le Fort II osteotomy to maintain infraorbital rim and malar complex and to advance nasomaxillary complex. Others who require advancement of infraorbital rim and malar complex can be treated by quadrangular Le Fort II osteotomy. On the following cases, patients who had represented midfacial deficiency and mandibular prognathism were treated with combined orthodontic-surgical therapy by Le Fort II osteotomy and BSSRO.

Statement of problem: Crestal bone loss, a common problem associated with dental implant, has been attributed to excessive bone stresses. Design of implant's transgingival (TG) part may affect the crestal bone stresses. Purpose: To investigate if concavely designed geometry at a dental implant's TG part reduces peri-implant bone stresses. Material and methods: A total of five differently configured TG parts were compared. Base model was the ITI one piece implant (Straumann, Waldenburg, Switzerland) characterized by straight TG part. Other 4 experimental models, i.e. Model-1 to Model-4, were designed to have concave TG part. Finite element analyses were carried out using an axisymmetric assumption. A vertical load of 50 N or an oblique load of 50 N acting at $30^{\circ}$ with the implant's long axis was applied. For a systematic stress comparison, a total of 19 reference points were defined on nodal points around the implant. The peak crestal bone stress acting at the intersection of implant and crestal bone was estimated using regression analysis from the stress results obtained at 5 reference points defined along the mid plane of the crestal bone. Results: Base Model with straight configuration at the transgingival part created highest stresses on the crestal bone. Stress level was reduced when concavity was imposed. The greater the concavity and the closer the concavity to the crestal bone level, the less the crestal stresses. Conclusion: The transgingival part of dental implant affect the crestal bone stress. And that concavely designed one may be used to reduce bone stress.

The occurrence of ground subsidence and sinkhole in downtown areas, which threatens the safety of citizens, has been frequently reported. Among the various mechanisms of a sinkhole, soil erosion through the damaged part of the sewer pipe was found to be the main cause in Seoul. In this study, a random forest model for predicting the occurrence of sinkholes caused by damaged sewer pipes based on sewage pipe information was trained using the information on the sewage pipe and the locations of the sinkhole occurrence case in Seoul. The random forest model showed excellent performance in the prediction of sinkhole occurrence after the optimization of its hyperparameters. In addition, it was confirmed that the sewage pipe length, elevation above sea level, slope, depth of landfill, and the risk of ground subsidence were affected in the order of sewage pipe information used as input variables. The results of this study are expected to be used as basic data for the preparation of a sinkhole susceptibility map and the establishment of an underground cavity exploration plan and a sewage pipe maintenance plan.

The road sinks in the sewer line or subway section are affected by the ground characteristics. Therefore, it is necessary to accurately identify the relationship between the soil properties and the ground motion in the area where cavities occurred in order to establish a countermeasure against the road sink. In this paper, simulation was performed by using EDEM program, which is one of the Discrete Element Method programs, for sandy soil and clayey soil, which are most common in alluvial deposits, with different locations and sizes of cavities in the underground. As a result, it was found that the sink size occurred more in the sandy soil than in the cohesive soil. Deeper and larger cavity is more likely to occur the road sink In the sand soil model while road sink in the clay model is easy to occur when the cavity is more shallower.

Implant placement in the anterior region is performed in several stages, and harmonization of both hard and soft tissues is essential. In addition, adequate esthetic and functional evaluations are necessary in the process of transitioning from the provisional to the final prosthesis to attain patient satisfaction. Although gingiva can be molded in the anterior region, depression in the occlusal view can yield good results through the augmentation procedure. However, the harvesting of connective tissue from the palate is not suitable for various reasons, such as postoperative discomfort and intraoperative bleeding. Compared to the palatal area, the harvesting of connective tissue from the maxillary tuberosity can easily result in relatively thick tissue and quick healing of the donor site, thus proving to be a good modality for graft procedures. The purpose of this report is to examine the relevant evidence from previous studies and evaluate the process of soft tissue augmentation through a case presentation.
