The purpose of this study was to evaluate the difference and relationship between the slope of articular eminence and the inclination of upper and lower incisor teeth, which are related to the functional stability of occlusion in mandibular protrusion, according to Ricketts' facial types, by the use of lateral cephalogram and SAM2 articulator in 68-adult normal occlusion without tooth missing, orthodontic treatment and occlusal equilibration. The results of this study were as follows : 1 . The angle of articular eminence slope to occlusal plane in brachyfacial type was steeper than that in dolichofacial type, but the angle of articular eminence slope to SN plane and FH plane was not different between facial types. 2. The upper incisor axis in dolichofacial type was steeper than that in brachyfacial type, but lingual surface slope of upper incisor was not different between facial types. 3. In all samples there was a positive correlation between the angle of articular eminence slope and the lingual surface slope of upper incisor to SN plane and FH plane, and in mesofacial type there was a positive correlation between the angle of articular eminence slope and the lingual surface slope of upper incisor to SN plane, FH plane and occlusal plane, and in brachyfacial type there was a positive correlation between the angle of articular eminence slope and the lingual surface slope of upper incisor to occlusal plane. 4. In all samples there was a positive correlation between the angle of articular eminence slope and the angle of Dc-Gn to SN plane, and in mesofacial type there was a positive correlation between the angle of articular eminence slope and the angle of Dc-Gn to occlusal plane, and in brachyfacial type there was a positive correlation between the angle of articular eminence slope and the angle of Dc-Gn to SN plane and FH plane. 5. In all samples there was a positive correlation between the angle of Dc-Gn and the lingual surface slope of upper incisor to SN plane and FH plane, and in mesofacial type there was a positive correlation between the angle of Dc-Gn and the lingual surface slope of upper incisor to SN plane. 6. In all samples and facial types there was a negative correlation between MP to 1 axis and condylar incisal angle.

본 연구는 하악골 3차원 입체영상에서 비대칭계측항목들의 재현도 비교를 통하여 안면비대칭 진단 시 유용한 계측점 설정에 도움이 되고자 시행되었다. 40명의 두경부 전산화단층사진을 이용하여 생성한 3차원 영상에서 하악골 형태를 결정짓는 부위로 하악과두, 하악우각부, 하악정중부를 선택하고 각 부위의 세부위치에 따라, 그리고 측정 시 보는 각도에 따라 구분하여 하악과두의 경우 $Cd_{sup}_{-}_{sup}$ 등 6개, 하악우각부의 경우 $Go_{inf}_{-}_{lat}$ 등 10개, 하악정중부의 경우 $Me_{-}_{ant},\;Me_{-}_{inf}$ 등 총 18개의 계측점을 설정한 후 이를 이용하여 하악골 비대칭 시 좌우 차이를 보일 수 있는 25개의 계측항목을 설정 및 계측한 후 조사자간 및 조사자내의 재현도를 비교 평가하였다. 조사자간 재현도의 경우 25개의 계측항목 중 3개를 제외한 모든 계측항목에서, 조사자내 재현도의 경우 2개 항목을 제외한 모든 계측항목에서 높은 재현도를 보였다. 아울러 본 연구에서 설정한 18개의 계측점 중 $Go_{mid}_{-}_{lat},\;Go_{mid}_{-}_{obl}$가 포함된 계측항목이 조사자간 및 조사자내 재현도가 떨어지는 경향을 보였다. 이상의 면구 결과 본 연구에서 사용된 18개의 계측점 중 16개의 계측점 (과두를 나타내는 $Cd_{sup}_{-}_{sup},\;Cd_{lat}_{-}_{ant},\;Cd_{lat}_{-}_{lat},\;Cd_{post}_{-}_{lat},\;Cd_{post}_{-}_{post},\;S$, 하악우각부를 나타내는 $Go_{int}_{-}_{lat},\;Go_{inf}_{-}_{inf},\;Go_{lat}_{-}_{ant},\;Go_{lat}_{-}_{lat},\;Go_{post}_{-}_{lat},\;Go_{post}_{-}_{post},\;Ag_{-}_{lat},\;Ag_{-}_{inf}$, 하악정중부를 나타내는 $Me_{-}_{ant},\;M_{-}_{inf}$)은 높은 재현도를 보이므로 전산화단층사진을 이용한 하악골 3차원 영상에서 안면비대칭 환자의 진단에 유용하게 사용될 수 있음을 시사하였다.

The purpose of this research is to investigate the influence on mandibular movements and TMJ sounds with changes of head and neck posture. For the research, twenty patients who had complained of TMJ sounds without any other symptoms of cranio-mandibular disorders, were selected as subjects for measurements of TMJ sounds, and radiographs on transcranial view of TMJ were taken on ten of the subjects. From NHP, UHP, DHP and FHP, aspects of mandibular movement and TMJ sound were investigated from each posture. Aspects of mandibular movement and TMJ sound were observed by measuring total vibration energy(Integral), peak amplitude, maximum amound of mouth opening, and TMJ sound-emitting point using Sonopak for windows (version 1.33) and Bio-EGN(Bioresearch Inc. WI. U.S.A.). Head and neck movement-measuring instrument, CROM(perfomance attainment Inc. U.S.A.) was to maintain even head posture. Degrees of inclination of UHP and DHP were determined at 30' and distance of FHP was 4cm. The results obtained were as follows. 1. Total vibration energy and peak amplitude of TMJ sounds were decreased more on UHP and on UHP and increased more on DHP and FHP than that on NHP. 2. At the maximum mouth opening, distance of TMJ sound-emitting point were decreased more on UHP and increased more on DHP and FHP than that on NHP. 3. The amounts of the maximum mouth opening were increased more on UHP and decreased more on DHP and FHP than that on NHP. 4. For the changes of the head posture with mouth opening observed in radiograph, condylar head was positioned more lower-anteriorly on UHP, and more upper-posteriorly on DHP and FHP than that on NHP. From the results obtained as above, considering positive influence of the change of head and neck posture, avoiding down-head and forward-head posture, and recommending upper- head posture can prevent the progress of temporomandibular disorder and lead to successful treatment for the patients with temporomandibular joint sounds.
