The importance of the hyoid bone lies in its unique anatomic relationships. It has no bony articulations but provides attachment for muscles, ligaments, and fascia of the pharynx, mandible, and cranium. Various studies have documented a variability of hyoid bone position in relation to changed mandibular position or head posture. The aim of this study is to investigate the hyoid bone position and inclination on cephalometric radiographs of three groups of patients exhibiting Class I, II, and III malocclusions. The conclusions obtained from this study can be summarized as follows ; 1. Class III malocclusion patients show a more anterior position of the hyoid bone and also less steep inclination of the hyoid bone. 2. The anteroposterior position of the hyoid bone relative to the cervical vertebra and mandible was very constant. 3. The hyoid bone represented the anterior bony boundary of the pharynx at a lower level than PNS.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the negative effects of cervical pull headgear and to compare the differences between the two groups of growers-vertical grower and horizontal grower group-which are classified by the posterior-anterior facial height ratio. Initial and final lateral cephalograms were taken for 26 patients including 15 vertical growers and 11 horizontal growers ; also, 3 angular measurements and 4 linear measurements were evaluated. The following results were found. 1. The palatal plane was tipped anteroinferiorly in the vertical grower group. 2. The posterior facial height/anterior facial height ratio was increased in the horizontal grower group. 3. The Mandibular plane angle remained stable on both groups. 4. There was no significant difference between the two groups in the amount of maxillary molar extrusion.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the postretention change of class II malocclusion treatment and to examine which factors were related to the relapse. Seventy-eight treated cases were divided into two groups according to the stability of treatment results. Various measurements in pre-treatment and post-treatment lateral cephalograms were evaluated and comparisons were drawn between the stable and relapse group by t-test and correlation analysis. 1. There were only a row differences in the skeletodental relationship in the pre-treatment phase between the stable and the relapse group. 2. Mandibles in the stable group were repositioned mote anteriorly than those in the relapse group. 3. Mandibular incisors were more uprighted to the basal bone and maxillary incisors were less lingualized in the stable group than in the relapse group. 4. Occlusal plane was inclined forward and downward in the relapse group.

The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the survival rate by comparing Class II restoration using flowable resin composite with stainless steel crown in primary molars. Electronic medical records and radiographs of 1,504 primary molars with proximal caries of 590 patients from June 2015 to August 2019 were analyzed. With the collected data, survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method. The 1-year survival rate of flowable resin composite in the primary molar was 98.5%, 3-year survival rate was 87.7%, and mean survival time was 39 months. There was no statistically significant difference between flowable resin composite and stainless steel crown (p = 0.896). Within the limits of this study, Class II restoration using flowable resin composite can be considered a promising option for the treatment of proximal caries in primary molars.

This study have been carried out to find out the mechnical effect of Multiloop Edgewise Arch Wire(MEAW) making use of the finite element method. The tip back bend of MEAW taken in this analysis is $5^{\circ},\;10{\circ}\;and\;15{\circ}$. In addition, Class II or up & down elastic is applied to find out stress distribution and their values in PDL. A adult male of normal occlusion was selected to create the models of teeth and PDL. And the model of MEAW was also created using commercial finite element code (ANSYS version 5.2). The MEAW is forcibly engaged with a class II or up & down elastic, to determine the initial stress generated in PDL. Comparing the compressive and tensile stress at each reference-planes, following results are obtained. 1. When a MEAW of $5^{\circ},\;10{\circ}\;15{\circ}$ tip back bend was engaged with Class II or up & down elastic, the distribution of compressive, tensile stress in entire PDL is similar in each case. 2. The values of compressive and tensile stress in PDL is higher in $15{\circ}$ tip back bend case than in $10{\circ}\;or\;15{\circ}$ tip back bend case. 3. In the distal PDL of 1st and 2nd molar, compressive stress appears. The compressive area is more wide and its values is higher in PDL of 2nd molar than those in 1st molar. The compressive area and its values become more wide and higher according to the increase of the tip back bend. 4. The values of compressive stress are comparatively smaIIer in PDL of molars than those in premolars. 5. Comparing class II and up & down elastic case, tensile stress values in anterior teeth PDL are smaller md their distribution is more wide in up & down elastic case than class If elastic case. On another hand, there is no difference in distribution and stress values in PDL of posterior teeth between two cases. 6. Comparing the tensile area in PDL of anterior teeth, tensile stress values are maximum in PDL of canine.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the variations of the soft tissue profile contour in relation to the skeletal patterns and to confirm the correlation of soft tissue angles to the sagittal or vertical skeletal elements. Lateral cephalograms of 79 cases which were older than 17 years in age, were traced and statistically analyzed. The obtained results were as follows : 1. Nasolabial, interlabial, lower lip, mentolabial, and symphyseal angles showed the significant differences between skeletal Class II and skeletal. Class III group, but nasofrontal, upper lip, mentolabial, and symphyseal angles showed the significant differences between high angle and low angle group. 2. ANB value showed the significant positive correlation to nasolabial, symphyseal, and interlabial angles and the significant negative relation to lower lip angle. 3. SN-GoMe value showed the significant positive correlation to mentolabial, symphyseal, nasofrontal, and upper lip angles. 4. Soft tissue profile contour in SK. Class II group showed greater accordance to SN-GoMe value than those in SK. Class III group.
