PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to to analyze the effect of Type 2 diabetes on tooth mortality, implant treatment and prosthetic status. MATERIALS AND METHODS. 275 Type 2 diabetics and 300 non-diabetics, aged 40-80 years were selected for analysis. The assessment of number of teeth, missing teeth, fixed prostheses (bridge pontics), implants using panoramic radiographs and dental records were carried out. RESULTS. Diabetes mellitus (DM) patients had a higher number of missing teeth (P<.05) and placed implants (P=.074), age (P<.05), male gender percentage (P=.042), smoker percentage (P<.05) than non-DM patients. In univariate analysis, the patients in older group showed significantly higher number of tooth loss rate at the first dental examination than the patients in younger group. Tooth loss rate of smokers did not show higher value than that of non-smokers. When multiple variables including DM, age, smoking, gender were considered together, diabetics and older group patients showed significantly higher tooth loss rate at the first dental examination than non-diabetics and younger group patients, respectively. Smokers and male group did not show a significant difference than nonsmokers and female group, respectively. CONCLUSION. Tooth mortality and implant treatment rate were significantly higher in the DM group as indicated by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Old age groups showed significantly higher odds ratios and tooth loss rate. As diabetics showed the higher tooth loss rate than non-diabetics, diabetics also had more implant restorations than non-diabetics.

The purpose of this study was to compare the amount of the vertical pin opening of $33^{\circ}$ resin and $0^{\circ}$ resin teeth during processing and to determine whether the changes in tooth contacts by using articulation ribbon and T-Scan system follow any identifiable pattern, and to determine if there is any correlation between the changes in tooth contacts and the amount of the vertical pin opening after processing. Through statistical analyses on the data from this study, the following conclusions were obtained. 1. The amounts of the vertical pin opening were 0.78m, 0.87mm for $0^{\circ}$ teeth and $33^{\circ}$ teeth, respectively. But there was no significant difference between them. 2. The total number of contact points recorded by articulating ribbon after processing was decreased to 442.5% of that before processing. 3. The mean values for the number of contact points per tooth recorded by articulating ribbon after processing were 4.3 for the second molar, 3.8 for the first molar, 1.3 for the second premolar, 0.8 for the first premolar. The reduction of contact points per tooth became greater moving in an anterior direction. 4. The correlation between the reduction of contact points and the amount of the pin opening after processing was not significant. 5. The mean values for the numbers of contact points per tooth recorded by T-Scan system after processing were 2.2, 2.5, 1.0, and 0.5 at the second molar, the first molar, the second premolar, and the first premolar, respectively. 6. The correlation between the number of contact points by using articulating ribbon and TScan system after processing was not significant.

치아의 맹출은 치아가 구강내 교합평면에 도달하여 기능적인 위치를 차지할 때까지의 치아 이동 및 골조직 내에서의 발달로 이루어지는 생리학적인 양상으로 이해되어진다. 그러나 치아가 정상적으로 맹출해야 하는 시기를 지나서도 골조직 내에서 맹출하지 않을 수 있으며, 이러한 치아를 매복치라 일컫는다. 이러한 치아 매복의 주된 요인은 국소적인 것으로 악궁내 공간 부족, 치아 위치 이상, 과잉치, 맹출 경로의 감염, 낭종 및 안면 외상으로 인한 치배의 영향 등이 있다. 또한 쇄골두개이골증, 골다공증 등의 전신적 그리고 유전적 질환도 맹출 장애와 맹출 지연 등과 관련이 있다. 현재까지 매복치의 대부분은 영구치로 보고되었으며 반면에 유치의 매복에 대한 것은 극히 소수에 불과하고, 매복된 유치의 대다수는 제 2 유구치이다. 유치의 매복은 유착에 의해 이차적으로 생긴 저위교합과는 구별되어야 하며, 유치의 매복에 대한 병인은 유치 치배의 비정상적인 발달로 인해 조기에 유착이 일어나는 것으로 추측되어지고 있으나, 아직까지 정확하게 밝혀진 바는 없다. 유치의 맹출 실패로 나타날 수 있는 문제점으로는 계승 영구치 발달 및 맹출 방해, 낭종 형성이나 감염의 발생 등을 생각해 볼 수 있다. 본 증례들은 연세대학교 치과대학병원 소아치과에 내원한 환아의 구강 및 방사선학적 검사에서 유구치의 매복이 관찰되었기에 이에 보고하는 바이다.

Objectives : This study was to assess the children's mean number of decayed or filled primary teeth in relation to their mother's oral health behavior and then to increase children's oral health. Methods : The 346 children and their mothers were selected for this study. The children were 4 or 7 years old in the 4 dental clinics in Busan and Kyungnam, Korea. Data were collected by examination on children and self-administrated questionnaire on their mothers. The questionnaire was surveyed mother's oral health behaviour and children experienced dental caries or not and the number of decayed or filled they had were used as outcome variables. Results : 1. The mother's education level affected children's dft index significantly(p<0.05), In the case of tooth brushing method of children, the group with circle teeth wipes shows the low dft index(p<0.01). 2. On the other hand the group with snack as food eaten between meals has high dft index(p<0.001). 3. The group with mother's visiting to dentist within recent 1 year, experience in removing plaque or willing to attend the oral health education show low dft index(p<0.05). The important variables affecting to dft index are experience with oral health education, tooth brushing guidance, replacement of toothbrushes, the kind of food eaten between meals, recent experience of plaque removal and willing to participating in the oral health class. Conclusions : This study showed that the mother's oral health behavior and concern play an important role for the prevention of preschooler's dental caries. Dental health education would be focused on the mothers, expecially for the practice of preventive behavior by preschools themselves.

The aim of present study is to evaluate the influence of adjacent tooth to the microbiology of clinically healthy implant. Control group included patients who had clinically healthy implant and tooth with healthy $periodontium(PD{\leq}3mm)$, test group was composed of patients who had clinically healthy implant and tooth with periodontal pocket(PD>3mm). The criteria of clinically health implant are no pain or discomfort, the restorative suprastructure provide satisfactory fit and function, and the tissue around the fixtures were firm and probing with standard periodontal probe with a rounded tip 0.5mm in diameter resulted in penetration of no more than 5mm when using a force of 0.5N at any location. 38 patients, partially edentulous subjects with endosseous root-form implants were selected. All subjects were medically healthy and had not taken systemic antibiotics and professional plaque control 3 months before sampling. Number of control group is 25(mean age $52{\pm}13$, 26 teeth, 34 implants) and test group is 13(mean age $60{\pm}13$, 13 teeth, 17 implants). All teeth and implants of each patient were examined probing depth(PD), bleeding on probing(BOP), and plaque index(PI), and samples of subgingival plaque were obtained at each site with sterile curet or fine paper points, then the plaque transferred to PBS. Obtained samples were examined for the presence of P. gingivalis, T. forsythensis, and T. denticola by the polymerase chain reaction(PCR). The relationship among clinical parameters and the colonizations by the 3 bacterial species from natural teeth and implants region were analyzed by student t-test. The results of this study were as follows: 1. PD was different in teeth between 2 groups(p<0.05), but the other parameters were not. 2. Statistically significant difference was not found in clinical parameters of implants between 2 groups. 3. All bacterial prevalences of teeth were higher in test group than in control group, and prevalence of T. forsythensis had statistically significant difference between 2 groups(p<0.05). 4. Prevalences of P. gingivalis and T. forsythensis are higher in test group than control group, and that of T. denticola is higher in control group than in test group. But there were no statistically significant differences between 2 groups. In conclusion, there is no statistically significant difference in prevalence of implant microbiology between 2 groups. But if the number of samples increased, it will be possible to find out statistical significance in prevalence of P. gingivalis. It seems that pocket of adjacent tooth influences prevalence of P. gingivalis. These results mean that improvement of the periodontal condition before implantation is very important.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the dietary habits and oral health of elderly people in an attempt to pave the way for the development of oral health promotion programs geared toward improving the quality of life of the elderly. The subjects in this study were senior citizens who were selected by convenience sampling from Seoul. The findings of the study were as follows: 1. Regarding subjective oral health state, 54.5% of the elderly people, more than the half, considered their mouth to be in good health. The number of their mean remaining permanent teeth was 13.71. 47.5 percent of the senior citizens investigated had no shaking teeth. 2. Those who found themselves to be in good oral health had meals on a regular basis(p=0.022) and ate detergent food often. The gaps between them and the others was significant(p=0.005). In contrast, the elderly people who were in a bad oral health frequently ate cariogenic food(p=0.044). 3. The elderly people who had 21 teeth or more ate detergent food often(p=0.029), and those who owned no teeth had a sweet teeth(p=0.003), ate more cariogenic food(p=0.001) and had a snack frequently(p=0.026). 4. The subjective oral health status had a positive correlation to detergent food intake(r=0.23) and had a slightly negative correlation to preference for sweets(r=-0.14), cariogenic food intake(r=-0.14) and snack intake(r=-0.06). The number of tooth was positively correlated to detergent food intake(r=0.23) and negatively to preference for sweets(r=0.32), cariogenic food intake(r=-0.30) and snack intake(r=-0.21). The presence or absence of shaking teeth had a positive correlation to snack intake(r=0.14). The above-mentioned findings suggested that the dietary habits of the elderly people had a statistically significant relationship to subjective and objective oral health state, which indicated that there was a close relationship between oral health and dietary habits. Therefore how to improve dietary habits as well as oral health should be taken into account when oral health promotion programs are developed for the sake of the elderly. That would contribute to promoting the oral health of elderly people and eventually boosting their quality of life.

임상에서 흔히 발견되는 과잉치는 치아 형성기에 발생할 수 있는 치아 발육 이상의 하나로 여러 가지 치과적 합병증을 야기한다. 특히 상악 정중부에 역위 매복된 과잉치는 발생률이 높고 인접치에 미치는 영향이 크다는 점에서 임상적으로 중요하다. 과잉치에 대해서 임상적 및 방사선학적으로 보고되고 있으나 대부분의 연구는 표본 수가 적었으며 구내 방사선 사진이나 파노라마 방사선 사진만으로 검사하여 과잉치의 형태 및 위치 그리고 주위 조직에 미치는 영향 등에 관하여 정확하게 평가하기 어려웠을 것으로 생각된다. 이에 저자는 상악 정중부 역위 매복 과잉치의 개수, 형태, 만곡도, 위치, 근접도 및 합병증을 삼차원적으로 평가하기 위하여 1998년 7월부터 2002년 6월까지 연세대학교 치과대학병원 소아치과에 내원한 환자중 상악 정중부 역위 매복 과잉치의 진단을 위하여 전산화 단층 방사선사진 촬영을 한 경우에 대해 임상 기록지, 파노라마 방사선사진과 전산화 단층 방사선사진을 이용하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 상악 정중부 역위 매복 과잉치는 3.4:1로 여자보다 남자에서 호발하였다. 2. 과잉치는 1개 있는 경우가 가장 많았고 2, 3개 순으로 관찰되었으며, 평균 1.3개였고, 6-8세에 많이 발견되었다. 3. Conical 형태의 과잉치가 80.6%로 가장 많았고, tuberculate, supplemental 형태 순으로 나타났다. 4. 과잉치가 tuberculate 형태일 경우, 치근이 만곡되었을 경우와 인접치와 근접도가 높을 경우 합병증이 더 높게 발생하였다.

Objectives: This study was conducted at a request for cooperation through an analysis of the effect of toothbrushing facilities at a public health center in Seongdong-gu. Also, with the aim of furnishing basic data to the proposal of a program for improving the ability of school aged children in managing oral cavities and developing a correct toothbrushing habit, the study conducted an investigation of how toothbrushing facilities affect change in the oral environment management ability and behavior of oral health care. Methods: From among elementary schools located in Seongdong-gu, Seoul the study selected A Elementary School where toothbrushing facilities were established and have been operated since 2008, B Elementary School in an adjacent region within the jurisdiction of Seongdong-gu where the demographic environment was similar among schools where toothbrushing facilities were newly established in 2012, and C Elementary School without toothbrushing facilities. Then the study was aimed at first grade students of the schools and an investigation was carried out from April to December 2012. Through a dental checkup, the study evaluated the teeth and periodontal health conditions, and a test of the oral environment management ability was undertaken three times. Regarding change of oral health care behavior, the study carried out a self-recording survey. Results: 1. Concerning decayed and filled tooth(dft) and decayed and filled surface (dfs), A Elementary School where toothbrushing facilities have been established and operated from the past showed a relatively lower decayed, missing, and filled teeth index than B Elementary School where toothbrushing facilities were established in 2012 or C Elementary School without toothbrushing facilities; however, there was no significant difference (p>0.05). For CPI, there was no significant difference by school; however, in looking into the difference between boy students and girl students, Code (0) was discovered higher in boy students whereas Code (1) was shown higher in girl students. 2. In the PHP index test in accordance with the existence of toothbrushing facilities before the installation of toothbrushing facilities, for A Elementary School where toothbrushing facilities have been established and operated from the past, the school recorded 4.28 points whereas B Elementary School where the facilities were established in 2012 recorded 3.51 points. Meanwhile C Elementary School without the facilities posted 4.30 points. Therefore there was a statistically significant difference according to the existence of toothbrushing facilities (p<0.05). 3. In a comparison of teeth health care behavior according to the existence of toothbrushing facilities, the number of answers that the respondent did not brush their teeth after lunch over the past one week was higher in B Elementary School and C Elementary School where there were no toothbrushing facilities. Regarding the average number of brushing after lunch for one week, it was discovered higher in A Elementary School (p<0.01). 4. In change of teeth health care behavior before and after the establishment of toothbrushing facilities, the case of answering that the respondents did not brush their teeth after lunch for one week increased more after establishment than before establishment. Also the average number of teeth brushings after lunch for one week decreased further after the establishment of toothbrushing facilities; however, it did not show a significant difference (p>0.05). One of the reasons that they do not brush their teeth, "the lack of a place", decreased significantly after establishment than before establishment (p<0.05), whereas the answer, "because their friends do not brush their tooth" increased greatly after establishment than before establishment; however, there was no significant difference (p>0.05). 5. In the comparison of the degree of knowledge about dental health according to the existence of toothbrushing facilities, the degree of knowledge about dental health was shown significantly higher in A Elementary School with toothbrushing facilities than in B Elementary School and C Elementary School where there were no toothbrushing facilities (p<0.01). Conclusions: Given the above results, it is difficult to attract change in behavior only with an environmental improvement; therefore, it is deemed necessary to develop an educational program that will help children to make a habit of oral health care not only through a school but also through a related policy and financial support of government organizations as well as the construction of the basis of a systematic and consistent cooperative system with relevant organizations.
