골신장술을 시행할 때는 골절단 방법, 환자에 따른 견인장치의 종류, 골 신장의 리듬과 이동량, 견인장치의 위치와 방향, 회귀량을 줄이기 위한 유지방법과 기간의 선택에 신중을 기해야 한다. 이러한 사항에 대한 적절한 치료계획과 수술이 이루어진다면 골신장술은 기존의 악정형 수술로는 해결하기 힘든 구순구개열 환자의 상악골 열성장을 극복할 수 있는 효과적인 치료방법이 될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 본 교실에서는 양측성 구순구개열로 인한 상악골 열성장 환자에 골신장술을 적용한 증례를 체험하여 다소간의 지견을 얻었기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

The demand for orthodontic clear aligner therapy (CAT) has increased significantly over the last decade, offering advantages over the fixed appliances (FA) including enhanced aesthetics, better hygiene and comfort, along with minimal restrictions on the patient's diet. Moreover, a marked improvement in the efficacy of tooth movement using aligners has been documented. On the contrary, there have been known limitations of CAT including the compliances issues and the apparent lack of efficacy for certain types of tooth movement such as closure of extraction space compared to FA. Thus, evidence-based evaluation of the accuracy of prediction of tooth movement with clear aligners and their ability to effectively perform major tooth and root movements compared to FA are crucial. Although several systematic reviews have investigated various aspects of the effectiveness of CAT, we are yet to obtain a rather conclusive answer to this question. The current review attempted to summarize the evidence-based findings of most systematic reviews about CAT available to date. Major issues regarding the predictability of tooth movement, the role of attachments and auxiliaries in improving the effectiveness of CAT, and the treatment outcomes in comparison to FA were investigated. Clinical recommendation have been also elaborated based on the interpretation of the findings of all systematic reviews included in this study.

Objective: To compare short- and long-term dentoalveolar, skeletal, and rotational changes evaluated by Björk's structural method of superimposition between children with Class II malocclusion treated by functional appliances and untreated matched controls. Methods: Seventy-nine prepubertal or pubertal children (mean age, 11.57 ± 1.40 years) with Class II malocclusion were included. Thirty-four children were treated using an activator with a high-pull headgear (Z-activator), while 28 were treated using an activator without a headgear (E-activator). Seventeen untreated children were included as controls. Lateral cephalograms were obtained before treatment (T1), after functional appliance treatment (T2), and after retention in the postpubertal phase (T3). Changes from T1 to T2 and T1 to T3 were compared between the treated groups and control group using multiple linear regression analysis. Results: Relative to the findings in the control group at T2, the sagittal jaw relationship (subspinale-nasion-pogonion, p < 0.001), maxillary prognathism (sella-nasion-subspinale, p < 0.05), and condylar growth (p < 0.001) exhibited significant improvements in the Z- and E-activator groups, which also showed a significantly increased maxillary incisor retraction (p < 0.001) and decreased overjet (p < 0.001). Only the E-activator group exhibited significant backward rotation of the maxilla at T2 (p < 0.01). The improvements in the sagittal jaw relationship (p < 0.01) and dental relationship (p < 0.001) remained significant at T3. Condylar growth and jaw rotations were not significant at T3. Conclusions: Functional appliance treatment in children with Class II malocclusion can significantly improve the sagittal jaw relationship and dental relationships in the long term.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate clinical factors affecting the longevity of fixed retainers and the influence of fixed retainers on periodontal health in periodontitis patients. Methods: In total, 52 patients with at least 2 years of follow-up after periodontal and orthodontic treatment were included in this study. After scaling and root planing, orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances or clear aligners was performed. Fixed retainers with twist-flex stainless steel wires were bonded to the palatal or lingual sides of anterior teeth. Changes in clinical parameters, including the plaque index, gingival index, calculus index (CI), probing pocket depth, and radiographic bone levels, were evaluated before bonding of fixed retainers and at a 12-month follow-up. Cumulative survival rates (CSRs) for retainer failure were evaluated according to sex, site, CI, stage of periodontitis, and the severity of the irregularity with the log-rank test and hazard ratios (HRs). Results: Twelve months after bonding of fixed retainers, improvements were observed in all clinical parameters except CI and radiographic bone gain. The overall CSR of the retainers with a CI <1 at the 12-month follow-up after bonding of fixed retainers was significantly higher than that of the retainers with a CI ≥1 at the 12-month follow-up (log-rank test; P<0.001). Patients with stage III (grade B or C) periodontitis had a higher multivariate HR for retainer failure (5.4; 95% confidence interval, 1.22-23.91; P=0.026) than patients with stage I (grade A or B) periodontitis. Conclusions: Although fixed retainers were bonded in periodontitis patients, periodontal health was well maintained if supportive periodontal treatment with repeated oral hygiene education was provided. Nonetheless, fixed retainer failure occurred more frequently in patients who had stage III (grade B or C) periodontitis or a CI ≥1 at 12-month follow-up after bonding of fixed retainers.

현재 스포츠 치의학은 두가지 방면으로 연구가 진행되고 있는데, 하나는 부드러운 재질로 만든 마우스 가드로 스포츠 외상의 예에 관한 연구이고, 또 하나는 딱딱한 재질로 만든 교합안정장치로, 구강 기능과 전신의 운동능력과 의 상관성에 관한 연구이다. 현재 많은 프로선수들이 운동능력향상을 위해 교합안정장치를 사용해 오고 있다. 그러나 국내에서는 스포츠 치의학에 대한 관심이 적어 위와 같은 연구가 이루어져 있지 않을 뿐만 아니라 그러한 연구를 위한 기초 자료조차도 준비되어 있지 않은 실정이다. 또한 소수의 연구에서 실험 대상자의 정확한 분석과 교합 안정장치 장착 전과 후의 변화를 보여주지 못하고 있다. 이에 저자는 골프선수들의 교합분석과 턱관절분석을 시행하고, 피검자의 상태에 따른 정확한 교합안정장치를 제작하여 장치 장착 전과 후의 저작근의 근활성량의 변화와 드라이버 비거리의 변화를 측정하여 분석하였다. 그 결과 교합안정장치를 장착함으로써 저작근의 근안정이 유도되고, 드라이버 비거리가 증가되었다. 특히 측두하악장애를 지닌 골프선수일수록 교합균형장치를 사용함으로 드라이버 비거리의 향상에 도움이 될 것이라고 기대된다.

Traction of impacted tooth often requires patient compliance to place elastics to surgically exposed impacted tooth. It can be very difficult and time-consuming. The aim of this article was to describe an impacted tooth tractor, Moon's appliance, which was modified from the Nance holding arch appliance. Moon's appliance eliminates patient compliance and generates a light continuous force. We achieved the desired treatment results for impacted tooth using this appliance. This new fixed appliance can be a reasonable alternative to conventional appliances.

In this paper, it has been investigated that the design and simulation of linear motor for medical appliances. Vacuum pump consists of unified plunger and piston part, coils, inlet valve and outlet valve. Operating principal of vacuum pump show that air is to flow to go inside through the inlet valve, when the magnetic force (16N) is exerted, whereas, air is to flow to go outside through outlet valve, when spring force (14.8N) is exerted. The results of simulation, it was turned out that magnetic force was loaded with 16 Newton, displacement of actuator was about 8mm.

Objective: To assess the accuracy of anterior tooth movement using clear aligners in integrated three-dimensional digital models. Methods: Cone-beam computed tomography was performed before and after treatment with clear aligners in 32 patients. Plaster casts were laser-scanned for virtual setup and aligner fabrication. Differences in predicted and achieved root and crown positions of anterior teeth were compared on superimposed maxillofacial digital images and virtual models and analyzed by Student's t-test. Results: The mean discrepancies in maxillary and mandibular crown positions were $0.376{\pm}0.041mm$ and $0.398{\pm}0.037mm$, respectively. Maxillary and mandibular root positions differed by $2.062{\pm}0.128mm$ and $1.941{\pm}0.154mm$, respectively. Conclusions: Crowns but not roots of anterior teeth can be moved to designated positions using clear aligners, because these appliances cause tooth movement by tilting motion.
