The author compared and analysed the roentgenocephalograms of one hundred Korean adults with the normal occlusion (50 males and 50 females), which were taken on the centric occlusion and the rest position of the mandible respectively for every subject, and then researched the relations among the relaxed muscle of the mandible, lightly touched of the lips, and the position just after the swallowing of saliva, of which 38 among 50 males had the rest position of the mandible. The results are as followings: 1. The anterior facial height increases more at the rest position of the mandible than at the centric occlusion, while the posterior facial height decreases. 2. The mandible moves more backward and downward at the rest position of the mandible than at the centric occlusion. 3. The facial procumbency and the incisor tooth inclination increases more at the rest position of the mandible than the centric occlusion in terms of the facial plane. 4. There are no differences between males and females at the rest position of the mandible and the centric occlusion in the meaning of variation. 5. There are no differences among the three methods from the view of lines and angles of the roentgenocephalogram.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of mandible position on proprioception and range of motion (ROM) during neck stabilization exercise using a sling in healthy adults. Methods: The subjects were randomly assigned to either a sling exercise and mandible open group (n=10) or a sling exercise and mandible closed group (n=12). The sling exercise-mandible open group and sling exercise-mandible closed group took part in an exercise program for 30min, three times per week for 4 weeks. After each training session, head repositioning accuracy (HRA) and the ROM of the cervical spine were measured. Wilcoxon's test was conducted to verify changes within each group, and the Mann-Whitney U test was performed to examine between-group differences. Results: The HRA of the cervical spine was significantly increased during left rotation and extension in the sling exercise-mandible open group. In addition, there were significant differences in both rotations and extension in the two groups. The ROM of the cervical spine increased significantly during both rotations in the sling exercise-mandible closed group. In addition, there was a significant difference in right rotation and extension in both groups. Conclusion: Cervical stabilization exercise using a sling, with the mandible closed increased proprioception and the ROM of the cervical spine.

The tests on the oral capacties which are divided into five groups on centric occlusion position, physiologic rest position, two mm open bite position, four mm open bite position, and maximum opening position of the mandible were conducted on the one hundread normal dental college students and staffs. The aims were to study the changeability of the fundamental oral structure, to get some helpful informations for the full denture wearers and related physiology, and also to find out further experimental standards. The results were as follows; 1. There was also some volumetric space in centric occlusion position. 2. The greater the voluntary opening degree of the mandible was, the greater the oral volumetric capacity was. 3. There were no correlations between the oral capacity and height, weight, and cheek thickness. 4. There were no correlations between the centric occlusion position and physiologic rest position, and voluntary positions of the mandible. 5. The inserted material into the oral cavity was much influential to the physiologic rest position.

This study was performed to investigate the effects of head posture and occlusal splint on the vertical dimension in mandibular rest position and swallowing. Thirty health dental students ware selected lot this study and BioEGNⓡ(Bioresearch Inc., USA) was used for measuring interocclusal distance during rest - swallowing - rest - tapping movement. This swallowing movements were observed in both normal head posture(NHP) and forward head posture (FHP). Thickness of occlusal splint was about 2mm at posterior molar area and even tooth contact were achieved on light biting. The four mandibular positions at which interocclusal distance measured were swallowing position, after swallowing position in which interocclusal distance was maximum, rest position follows swallowing, and tapping position after rest. Changes of distance in each position were measured for three mandibular planes, that is, sagittal, frontal, and horizontal plane, respectively. The results obtained were as follows : 1. In normal head posture, the mandible was raised 1.03mm without splint, and 0.77mm with splint on swallowing, and there was no significant difference between the two. In horizontal plane, however, mandible was displaced more anteriorly in both swallowing position and tapping position with splint. 2. In forward head posture, the mandible was less raised with splint on swallowing, but features in horizontal plane were almost same as those in normal head posture. 3. In natural dentition, significant difference between NHP and FHP were observed in horizontal plane trajectory for swallowing and tapping position. But the difference for same positions were observed in frontal trajectory with splint. 4. Total amount of mandibular movement of two groups classified with sagittal interocclusal distance of swallowing position generally showed significant difference between the higher and the lower height group in head posture without splint. 5. Correlationship among total amount of mandibular movement for three mandibular planes were observed between sagittal plane and horizontal plane, and between sagittal plane and frontal plane in head posture without splint.

There has been so much controversies about the position of upper and lower jaws, and their first permanent molars in normal occlusion and Angle's class $I{\cdot}II{\cdot}III$ malocclusions. So, the purpose of this study is to compare the position of upper and lower jaws, and their first molars in normal occlusion and Angle's class $I{\cdot}II{\cdot}III$ malocclusions by lateral cephalometric analysis. The sample consisted of one hundred and twenty girls(thirty in each group) who had completed growth. The findings of this study were as follows : 1. In class I malocclusion, both maxilla and mandible were slightly posterior position than normal occlusion, but they showed harmonious relationship. 2. In class II malocclusion, the mandible was greatly retruded, and the maxilla was also slightly retruded to the cranial base as compared with normal occlusion. 3. In class III malocclusion, the maxilla was significantly retruded to the cranial base, but no significant difference was found in mandibular position as compared with normal occlusion. 4. The maxillary first molar was located at posterior position in class II malocclusion, and anterior position in class III malocclusion to the cranium, so that the rotation of mandible was influenced by that. 5. The mandibular first molar showed constant relationship to the mandible in all four groups, but different position to the cranial base in direct proportion to the mandibular position. 6. On the treatment planning of class III malocclusion, it seems to be better to promote the mandibular horizontal growth by inhibiting the vertical growth of maxillary molar area, and on the treatment planning of class III malocclusion, it seems to be better to promote the antero-inferior growth of maxilla mi to promote the mandibular vertical growth by inducing the vertical growth of maxillary molar area.

This study was conducted to clarify the relationship of hyoid bone position to tongue position and mandible when malocclusion is categorized in the bilateral and in the vertical components. Five groups of samples (normal occlusion, unilateral and bilateral cross-bite, openbite, deep-bite) were selected for his investigation by utilizing the cephalograms. On the basis study, the following conclusions were obtained; 1. In the normal group. the mean hyoid position (H-M) was $9.83{\pm}4.27mm$. The mean distance of hyoid body to tongue dorsum (H-T) was $52.17{\pm}6.70mm$. The ratio of H-M/H-T was $18.59\%$. 2. In all malocclusion groups, the hyoid position (H-M) was found to be larger than that of the norm except the deep overbite group 3. The tongue dorsum position (H-T) was increased, compared to that of norm, in all malocclusion groups. 4. Hyoid position (H-M) was found to show high correlation to the ratio of H-M/H-T, H-T, PI-T (0.890, 0.699, 0.455). 5. The hyoid position (H-M) was found to show low correlation to the measurements of mandible, but among them the ODI was found to show conversely a little higher correlation against hyoid position (H-M).

The establishment and/or registration of an optimal or physiologic relationship between the maxillae and mandible has long been a subject of considerable interest and controversy in dentistry. Centric relation has been generally accepted as a repeatable starting point for restoring the mouth. Recently, it has been claimed that an electronic device (Myo-Monitor) will produce an accurate, reproducible occlusal registration at the vertical and horizontal occlusal position most compatible with the muscular of each patient. The objectives of this study was to compare Myo-Monitor centric to centric relation at the points of reproducibility and anteroposterior, superoinferior position. A Vericheck instrument was employed for examining difference in the position and reproducibility of mandible reproduced by the various check bite records. For this study, 8 dental students and dentists who had no missing teeth and no difficulties of mandibular movement were selected. The following three different positions of the mandible were registered (a) centric relation manipulated by means of chin-point technique with Lucia-jig, (b) centric relation manipulated by means of bilateral technique, (c) Myocentric manipulated by Myo-Monitor. From this experiment, the following results were obtained. 1. Bilateral manipulated centric relation was more reproducible than Myocentric in anteroposterior and superoinferior position , but more reproducible than centric relation manipulated by means of chin point technique with Lucia-jig in anteroposoterior position. Centric relation manipulated by means of chin Point technique with Lucia-jig was more reproducible than Myocentric in right anteroposterior and superoinferior position. 2. Centric relation by means of chin point technique with Lucia-jig was posterior($2.16{\pm}0.78mm$) and superior($0.41{\pm}0.16mm$) to centric occlusion. Bilateral manipulated centric relation was posterior($1.68{\pm}0.10mm$) and superior($1.02{\pm}0.45mm$) to centric occlusion. Myocentric was anterior($0.75{\pm}0.70mm$), inferior($0.59{\pm}0.44mm$) to centric occlusion.
