교합조정이나 대부분의 보철치료는 비가역적이어서 명확한 치료 계획이 없이는 섣불리 치료를 시작하지 말아야 한다. 명확한 치료 계획을 위해서는 증상의 원인 인자를 파악해야 하나, 때때로 그 원인이 불분명하여 환자에게 무어라 설명해야 할지 난감한 경우가 많은 것이 바로 이 분야이다. 교합 재구성을 함에 있어서 생체 역학과 근육의 활동량을 고려해야 하는 것은 이미 주지하고 있는 바이다. 즉, 악관절이나 치아에 대한 하중을 조절함으로써 근조직의 안정을 도모하여 적정한 하악위와 원활한 하악운동을 획득하는 것이 교합 재구성의 큰 목적 중 하나이다.

This paper is for the state of the art of the lightweight protective clothing against the mine, and it covers the preliminary work focused on the appropriate protection, ballistics, convenience, and wearability. It is suggested that the lightweight protective clothing should be fabricated with the laminated materials of high strength woven and non-woven fabrics to reduce the weight and thickness, thus improving the wearability. And partial reinforcement of the protective clothing is necessary to prevent the mortal wound near the important parts of the body without disturbing the arbitrary activity. The composition of the protective clothing should be designed in consideration of easy putting-on and taking-off in addition to easy divesture, which require little motion of the body is in case of serious injury. Additionally, status of the practical technique for high performance and ultra-light hybrid armor material were also described.

Current medical institutions with the development of medical technology to the increased demand for health use of radiation equipment is increasing rapidly. Direct radiation from the patient receives the aim of reducing exposure as much as possible is important and the spatial dose of scattered radiation with in the space to engage in reducing healthcare physician, radiation workers and carers need to reduce indirect exposure. X-ray radiation workers and caregivers in the X-ray room to wearing of protective clothing is advised. However Radiation worker sand caregivers of patients with secondary is done, by wearing protective clothing to wear protective clothing because of the weight and discomfort have been neglected. In this study, based on the presence or absence of clothing scattered radiation from space to measure distances, depending on the horizontal and height by measuring the angle of the importance of wearing protective clothing were investigated.
