Supernumerary teeth are extra teeth or tooth-like structures which may have either erupted or unerupted in addition to the 20 deciduous teeth and the 32 permanent teeth. Clinicians sometimes confront unerupted supernumerary teeth where implants would be placed. Many clinicians consider immediate placement of implant into an extracted socket as an effective technique compared to the conventional method of waiting several months for bone healing, because of the advantages such as reduction of treatment period, preservation of alveolar bone and soft tissue, etc. We could hardly find the case of immediate placement of implant after extraction of impacted supernumerary teeth and permanent teeth together. Therefore we report the case of immediate implantation following extraction of impacted supernumerary teeth and poor periodontal conditioned permanent teeth.

PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the amount of resorption and thickness of labial bone in anterior maxillary implant using cone beam computed tomography with Hitachi CB Mercuray (Hitachi, Medico, Tokyo, Japan). MATERIALS AND METHODS. Twenty-one patients with 26 implants were followed-up and checked with CBCT. 21 OSSEOTITE $NT^{(R)}$. (3i/implant Innovations, Florida, USA) and 5 $OSSEOTITE^{(R)}$. implants (3i/implant Innovations, Florida, USA) were placed at anterior region and they were positioned vertically at the same level of bony scallop of adjacent teeth. Whenever there was no lesion or labial bone was intact, immediate placement was tried as possible as it could be. Generated bone regeneration was done in the patients with the deficiency of hard tissue using $Bio-Oss^{(R)}$. (Geistlich, Wolhusen, Switzerland) and $Bio-Gide^{(R)}$. (Geistlich, Wolhusen, Switzerland). Second surgery was done in 6 months after implant placement and provisionalization was done for 3 months. Definite abutment was made of titanium abutment with porcelain, gold and zirconia, and was attached after provisionalization. Two-dimensional slices were created to produce sagittal, coronal, axial and 3D by using OnDemand3D (Cybermed, Seoul, Korea). RESULTS. The mean value of bone resorption (distance from top of implant to labial bone) was $1.32 \;{\pm}\; 0.86\; mm$ and the mean thickness of labial bone was $1.91 \;{\pm}\; 0.45 \;mm$. CONCLUSION. It is suggested that the thickness more than 1.91 mm could reduce the amount and incidence of resorption of labial bone in maxillary anterior implant.

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of Bioactive glass on bone regeneration in the experimental mandibular bone defects. Five rabbits, weighing about 2.0kg, were used. Three artificial bone defects, $5{\times}5{\times}5mm$ in size, were made at the inferior border of the mandible. In the experimental group 1, the bone defect was grafted with $Biogran^{(R)}$ and covered with $Bio-Gide^{(R)}$ resorbable membrane. In the experimental group 2, $Biogran^{(R)}$ was grafted only. In the control group, the bone defect was filled with blood clot and was spontaneously healed. The animals were sacrificed at 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks after the graft. Microscopic examination was performed. Results obtained were as follows: In the control group, the osteoid tissue was observed at week 1 and the bone trabeculi were connected each other and matured at week 2. The lamellar bone formation appeared at week 4, and the amount of bone tissue was increased at week 8. In the experimental group 1, the fibrous tissue was filled between the granules of Bioactive glass and the cartilage formation was found adjacent to the normal bone at week 1. The bone tissue was formed between the granules at week 2, while the amount of bone tissue increased and the lamellar bone formation was observed at week 4. The lamellar bone was increased at week 8. Histologic findings were Similar between the experimental groups 1 and 2, although the amount of Bioactive glass granules lost was increased in the latter. These results suggest that new bone formation is found around the Bioactive glass granules grafted into the bone defects, and the membrane plays a role in keeping the granules and preventing the fibrous tissue invasion.

Purpose: Following tooth extraction caused by severe periodontitis, alveolar ridge dimension lose their original volume. To reduce the alveolar ridge dimension, the ridge preservation technique has been introduced and tested in many clinical studies with membrane alone or membrane plus graft, achieving reduced ridge loss compared to extraction only. The aim of the present clinical study was to compare the post-extraction dimensional changes in the membrane exposure group to non-exposure group during healing period following ridge preservation technique. Methods: Ridge preservation was performed in 44 extraction sites. After extraction, deproteinized bovine bone mineral coated with synthetic oligopeptide (Ossgen-$X15^{(R)}$) or deproteinized bovine bone mineral (Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$) was implanted into the socket. A collagen membrane (Bio-$Gide^{(R)}$) was trimmed to cover the socket completely and applied to the entrance of the socket. Four clinical parameters were compared between baseline and 6 months. Results: During healing period, membrane exposure was observed at 19 sites. At the re-entry, hard newly formed tissue were observed at the ridge preservation site. The grafted socket sites were well preserved in their volume dimension. In both groups, horizontal ridge width was reduced and vertical height was increased. There were not statistically significant differences in horizontal (-1.32 mm vs -1.00 mm) and vertical ridge change (2.24 mm vs 2.37 mm at buccal crest, 1.36 mm vs. 1.53 mm at lingual crest) between two groups. Conclusions: The ridge preservation approach after tooth extraction effectively prevented resorption of hard tissue ridge in spite of membrane exposure during healing period.

1. 목 적 이 연구의 목적은 성견의 하악 골 결손부에 이식한 생체 유래 골 이식재에 대한 치조골의 반응을 알아보는 것이다. 2. 연구방법 및 재료 생후 1년 이상 된 성견 4마리의 하악 제2소구치 및 제 4 소구치를 발거하고 발치와에 금원심 폭경 8mm, 협설 폭경 5mm, 치조정에서의 깊이 6mm인 결손부를 형성하였다. 4주간의 자연 치유 후 판막을 형성하여 결손부의 크기를 확인하였다. 각각의 결손부 크기가 일정하도록 수정한 후 '이식재+차폐막'군에는 OCS-B을 이식하고 Bio-gide을 차단막으로 사용한 후 봉합하고 '이식재군'은 OCS-B 이식 후 차폐막 없이 봉합하였으며 '비이식'군은 아무런 처치없이 일차봉합하였다. 수술 4, 6주에 실험동물을 각각 희생시켜 실험부위를 적출하고 비탈회 연마 표본을 제작하여 골 치유 양성을 조직학적 및 조직계측학적으로 관찰하였다. 3. 연구결과 이식재 비이식군 및 이식군 모돼서 별다른 부작용없이 잘 치유되었다. 세 실험군 모두에서 술후 4주에 비교하여 술 후 6주에서의 결손부 산생골 형성량이 증가하였다. 술후 4주 소견에서 비이식군은 결손부 주변부위에서 골이 생성되어 나오는 양상을 보였으며 이식군은 이식재 주변으로 골침착 시작되는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 술후 6주 소견에서 비이식군은 결손부 경계부로부터의 지속적인 골 생성을 관찰할 수 있었으며 이식군은 이식재 주변으로 침착된 골의 양이 많아지고 신생골이 가교를 형성하는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 4. 결 론 차폐막 유무와 상관없이 OCS-B는 염증반응을 전혀 일으키지 않았으며 우수한 골 전도성을 보였다. 또한 결손부의 형태를 잘 유지하여 골재생을 위한 공간을 확보할 수 있었다. 이는 OCS-B가 골이식재로서의 필요조건을 갖추었음을 확인한 결과이며 보다 장기적인 관찰에서 OCS-B의 흡수 가능성을 확인하는 것이 필요할 것으로 보인다.
