  • This case report demonstrates two different uprighting mechanics separately applied to mesially tipped mandibular first and second molars. The biomechanical considerations for application of these mechanisms are also discussed. For repositioning of the first molar, which was severely tipped and deeply impacted, a novel cantilever mechanics was used. The molar tube was bonded in the buccolingual direction to facilitate insertion of a cantilever from the buccal side. By twisting the distal end of the cantilever, sufficient uprighting moment was generated. The mesial end of the cantilever was hooked over the miniscrew placed between the canine and first premolar, which could prevent exertion of an intrusive force to the anterior portion of the dentition as a side effect. For repositioning of the second molar, an uprighting mechanics using a compression force with two step bends incorporated into a nickel-titanium archwire was employed. This generated an uprighting moment as well as a distal force acting on the tipped second molar to regain the lost space for the first molar and bring it into its normal position. This epoch-making uprighting mechanics could also minimize the extrusion of the molar, thereby preventing occlusal interference by increasing interocclusal clearance between the inferiorly placed two step bends and the antagonist tooth. Consequently, the two step bends could help prevent occlusal interference. After 2 years and 11 months of active treatment, a desirable Class I occlusion was successfully achieved without permanent tooth extraction.

  • Objective: This study was performed to investigate the rate of tooth movement and histological characteristics of extraction sockets those were subjected to corticotomy. Methods: A split-mouth randomized controlled trial experiment was designed. Thirty-two adult, male Wistar rats were divided into 2 groups: healing extraction socket (H) and recent extraction socket (R); these groups were randomly classified into 4 subgroups (0/7/21/60 days). The first maxillary molar was extracted on 1 side and 2 months were allowed for complete bone healing; then, the corresponding molar was extracted on the other side and surgical intervention was performed at the mid-alveolar point of the first maxillary molar. Ten grams of continuous force was applied. The outcomes measured were rate of tooth movement, percentage of periodontal space and histological evaluation. The rate of tooth movement was calculated as the measured distance divided by the duration of molar movement. Histomorphometric evaluations were performed on the second and third maxillary molars. The Wilcoxon signed rank test was used to compare differences between the two groups. Results: There were no significant differences in the rates of tooth movement between H and R groups at any of the 4 time points. The histological appearance and percentage of periodontal space between the R and H groups also demonstrated no significant differences. Conclusions: The rates of orthodontic tooth movement into recent and healed socket sites did not differ between the groups. Histological analysis of tooth movement revealed regional acceleration during every time period.

  • 교정치료에 있어서 고정원은 진단 및 치료계획에서부터 치료 종료 단계까지 항상 염두에 두어야 하는 중요한 요소이다. 전통적으로 고정원의 조절을 위하여 차등력, 차등모멘트, 구내 고정원, 구외 고정원 등의 다양한 방법들이 사용되어져 왔다. 그러나 이러한 방법들은 원치 않는 치아의 이동이 발생할 수 있고 환자의 협조도가 필요하다는 한계가 있다. 따라서 환자의 협조도나 주변 치아에 의존하지 않는 골격성 고정원(skeletal anchorage)이 전통적인 방법들의 단점을 극복할 수 있는 대안으로 제시되었다. 골격성 고정원의 종류로는 implant, onplant, miniplate, miniscrew 등이 있다. 이 중에서 miniscrew는 환자의 협조도 감소, 술식의 간편성, 저렴한 비용, 식립부위의 다양성 등의 장점을 가지고 있어 교정치료 시 유용하게 이용될 수 있다. 본 증례는 이소성 맹출 경로를 보이는 상악 견치와 매복된 하악 견치의 견인, 정출된 상악 전치의 압하에 miniscrew를 이용하여 양호한 결과를 보였기에 보고하는 바이다.

  • 매복된 미성숙 영구치는 매복의 깊이와 방향이 정상 맹출로에 크게 벗어나 있지 않는다면 물리적인 원인 제거 후 자발적 맹출이 가능하다. 그러나 자발적 맹출이 일어나지 않는다면 골격성 고정원을 이용하여 교정적 견인을 하게 된다. 골격성 고정원 중 하나인 C-tube는 인접 치근 사이의 피질골상에서 4~5 mm의 짧은 여러 개의 미니 스크류로 치근 하방 부위에 고정되어 안정적이고, 초기 영구치열기 환자의 치아 손상의 가능성이 적다. 구부릴 수 있는 성질 때문에 견인력의 방향 조절도 가능하다. 매복치의 반대편 악궁에 식립 후 교정용 탄성 고무링을 이용한 수직적 견인이 가능하여 매복치를 원하는 위치에 견인할 수 있다. 하지만 C-tube의 식립 및 제거 시 절개가 필요하고, 환자의 협조가 요구된다. 또한 매복치의 견인 시, 미성숙 영구치의 치근 성장과 골, 부착 치은의 형성 등을 주의 깊게 관찰하고 주변 연조직의 염증이 생기지 않도록 치태 조절과 구강 위생 관리 교육이 필요하다.

  • 교정치료에 있어서 anchorage는 진단 및 치료계획에서부터 치료 종료 단계까지 교정의사가 항상 염두에 두면서 치료를 진행 해야 하는 중요한 요소이다. 환자의 적극적인 협조를 필요로 하는 전통적인 anchorage 조절법 보다는 miniscrew 같은 skeletal anchorage 가 좀더 효과적인 방법으로 제시되어 지고 있어, miniscrew의 교정적 이용 시 고려사항에 대하여 전반적인 고찰과 증례보고를 통해서 niniscrew의 다양한 임상적 적용에 대해서 살펴보았다. 또한 midpalate부위가 miniscrew의 식립 부위로서 가지는 장점과 식립 시의 주의사항을 알아보았으며 skeletal anchorage 가 교정에 도입되면서 치료개념과 방법에 있어서의 변화를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 절대적인 개념의 Anchorage가 도입 되었다. 2. 생역학적 면에서 치아의 치체이동이 쉬워지고 determinate system이 설계되어 질수 있다. 3. 기존의 수술로만 가능했던 치료들 중 일부는 교정 치료만으로 치료가 가능하게 되었다.

  • Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of an intentionally created socket on bone remodeling with orthodontic tooth movement in rabbits. Methods: Eighteen male rabbits weighing 3.8 - 4.25 kg were used. An 8-mm deep and 2-mm wide socket was drilled in the bone 1 mm mesial to the right mandibular first premolar. The left first premolar was extracted to serve as an extraction socket. A traction force of 100 cN was applied to the right first premolar and left second premolar. Sections were obtained at the middle third of the moving tooth for both the drilled and extraction sockets and evaluated with hematoxylin and eosin staining and immunohistochemical analyses. The amount of tooth movement and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive cell count were compared between the 2 groups using the Mann-Whitney U test. Results: At week 2, the distance of tooth movement was significantly higher in the intentional socket group (p < 0.05) than in the extraction socket group. The number of TRAP-positive cells decreased in week 2 but increased in week 3 (p < 0.05). However, there were no significant differences between the groups. Furthermore, results of transforming growth factor (TGF)-${\beta}$ staining revealed no significant differences. Conclusions: The intentional socket group showed greater distance of tooth movement than did the extraction socket group at week 2. Osteoclast counts and results of immunohistochemical analyses suggested elevated bone remodeling in both the groups. Thus, osteotomy may be an effective modality for enhancing tooth movement in orthodontic treatment.

  • The aim of this case report was to describe an innovative orthodontic treatment method that combined surgical and orthodontic techniques. The novel method was used to achieve a positive result in a case of moderate crowding by employing a computer-guided piezocision procedure followed by the use of clear aligners. A 23-year-old woman had a malocclusion with moderate crowding. Her periodontal indices, oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL), and treatment time were evaluated. The treatment included interproximal corticotomy cuts extending through the entire thickness of the cortical layer, without a full-thickness flap reflection. This was achieved with a three-dimensionally printed surgical guide using computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing. Orthodontic force was applied to the teeth immediately after surgery by using clear appliances for better control of tooth movement. The total treatment time was 8 months. The periodontal indices improved after crowding correction, but the oral health impact profile showed a slight deterioration of OHRQoL during the 3 days following surgery. At the 2-year retention follow-up, the stability of treatment was excellent. The reduction in surgical time and patient discomfort, increased periodontal safety and patient acceptability, and accurate control of orthodontic movement without the risk of losing anchorage may encourage the use of this combined technique in appropriate cases.

  • 매복된 치아는 부정교합과 인접치아의 치근 흡수, 낭종 등의 병적 변화를 유발할 수 있으므로 임상적 검사와 방사선학적 검사를 통해 정확한 위치를 화인하도록 하고, 적절한 치료계획을 통해 제 위치를 찾아주어야 한다. 외과적 수술시 치주적 문제점들을 고려하여 연조직과 골조직의 보존을 최대화할수 있어야 하며 한자의 구강 위생상태에 대한 철저한 교육을 통해 좋은 구강 위생상태를 유지할 수 있도록 해야 한다. 교정적 견인시에는 매복치를 배열할 공간의 확보와 고정원에 대한 고려가 선행되어야 하며, 교정적 견인시 적절한 힘과 mechanics의 구사로 치근의 흡수 등의 부작용이 일어나지 않도록 해야 하고 상태에 따라 다양한 방법을 이용한 교정적 견인을 시도할 수 있다. 매복된 치아는 병적 변화를 일으킨 경우나 반드시 발치를 해야 하는 경우만 아니라면 교정적 견인을 통해 기능과 심미성을 회복시켜 줄 수 있으므로 조기 발견과 발견시의 올바른 진단과 치료 계획을 수립하는 것이 중요하다.

  • The dental orthodontic wire provides a good combination of strength, corrosion resistance and moderate cost. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of TiN and ZrN coating on corrosion resistance and physical property of orthodontic wire using various instruments. Wires(round type and rectangular type) were used, respectively, for experiment. Ion plating was carried out for wire using Ti and Zr coating materials with nitrogen gas. Ion plated surface of each specimen was observed with field emission scanning electron microscopy(FE-SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDS), atomic force microscopy(AFM), vickers hardness tester, and electrochemical tester. The surface of TiN and ZrN coated wire was more smooth than that of other kinds of non-coated wire. TiN and ZrN coated surface showed higher hardness than that of non-coated surface. The corrosion potential of the TiN coated wire was comparatively high. The current density of TiN coated wire was smaller than that of non-coated wire in 0.9% NaCl solution. Pit nucleated at scratch of wire. The pitting corrosion resistance $|E_{pit}-E_{rep}|$ increased in the order of ZrN coated(300 mV), TiN coated(120 mV) and non-coated wire(0 mV).

  • Objective: Preservation of the periodontal ligament (PDL) is vital to the success of tooth autotransplantation (TAT). Increased PDL volumes and facilitated tooth extraction have been observed upon orthodontic preloading. However, it is unclear whether any changes occur in the expressions of bone biomolecules in the increased PDL volumes. This study aimed to determine the expressions of runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL), and osteoprotegerin (OPG) in PDL upon preloading. Methods: Seventy-two premolars from 18 patients were randomly assigned to experimental groups that received a leveling force for 1, 2, or 4 weeks or to a control unloaded group. Following extraction, PDL volumes from 32 premolars of eight patients (21.0 ± 3.8 years) were evaluated using toluidine blue staining. The expressions of the biomolecules in the PDL from 40 premolars of ten patients (21.4 ± 4.0 years) were analyzed via immunoblotting. Results: The median percentage of stained PDL was significantly higher at 2 and 4 weeks after preloading than in the unloaded condition (p < 0.05). The median RUNX2 and ALP expression levels were significantly higher at 2 and 4 weeks after preloading than in the unloaded condition (p < 0.05), whereas the median RANKL/OPG ratios were significantly higher at 1 and 4 weeks after preloading (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Orthodontic preloading for 4 weeks enhances PDL volumes as well as the expressions of RUNX2, ALP and the RANKL/OPG ratio in the PDL, suggesting this loading period is suitable for successful TAT.
