The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of restorative materials on the marginal leakage of wedge-shaped class V cavity. The study was performed in vitro in 25 defect-free permanent, extracted teeth. Wedge-shaped class V cavities were prepared and then the teeth were randomly selected and restored according to the following. Group A : restoration with Tetric Ceram(composite resin) Group B : restoration with Tetric flow(flowable resin) Group C : restoration with Compoglass after acid etching(compomer) Group D : restoration with Compoglass(compomer) Group E : restoration with Fuji II LC improved(resin-modified GIC) After thermocycling, the specimens were immersed in 5% basic fuchsin solution for 6 hours and sectioned longitudinally through the center of the restoration. The degree of marginal leakage was measured as the extent of dye penetration under the stereomicroscope. The data were analysed using one-way ANOVA. When significant differences found, multiple comparisons were made using Duncan's Multiple Range Test. The results were as follows: 1. The occlusal margins of all groups except for Fuji II LC improved showed lesser leakage than gingival margins and there was statistically significant difference(p<0.05). 2. At the occlusal margins, group A, B showed same marginal leakage scores, and others were decreased as group C, D, E in that order. There were statistically significant difference between group A, Band group D, E, group C and group E(p<0.05). 3. At the gingival margins, group B, C showed same marginal leakage scores, and others were decreased as group A, D, E in that order. But there was statistically significant difference between group B, C and group E(p<0.05). 4. In the Compoglass restoration, acid-etching technique was beneficial for marginal sealing ability at all of margins. But there was no statistically significant difference (p>0.05). In the restorations for wedge-shaped class V cavities, resin restoration with acid etching technique is recommended.

Molar Incisor Hypomineralization(MIH) have recently gained intensive research interests and various clinical trials. Most prevalence, etiology, treatment studies in MIH were carried out in the European countries, and data from the Korean were seldom. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of MIH and the status of dental caries and treatment on the first permanent molars in primary school children. For this study, 1,344 primary school students in Busan and Ulsan cities were examined directly the permanent incisors and first molars. The results of the survey were as follows: 81 MIH cases were identified among 1,344 cases. The prevalence of MIH in this group of children was 6.0%. Children with MIH showed a significantly higher DMFT value for permanent teeth than children without MIH. The mean number of decayed, missed, and filled in 1st permanent molars(DMFT index) was 1.17. The rate of children with restoration on 1st permanent molar was 13.6% and the sequence of restoration materials was as follows : composite resin, amalgam, gold inlay.

The main purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of dentin with various pretreatment application time on the dentin surface structure and the bond strength of glass ionomer restorative matrials between primary and permanent tooth. There are difference of composition, structure and pretreated effect of dentin conditioning between the primary and permanent teeth. Inspite of thease fact, we used the same application time of permanent tooth. This study intends to determine the most effective application time using SEM analysis of the surface change by dentin conditioning. Forty five intact primary and permanent teeth were splited mesiodistally with seperating diamond disk. Each eight specimens were prepared for shear bond strength test. (randomely devided eight group as follows:) group I conditioning for five seconds group II conditioning for ten seconds group III conditioning for fifteen seconds group IV conditioning for twenty seconds Additional specimens were prepared to SEM analysis. The result are as follows: 1. Primary teeth are higher shear bond strength in group I and group II. 2. There was no statistically significant difference between primary and permanent teeth in group III and group IV. 3. In SEM analysis, smear layer removal by dentin pretreatment of primary teeth was faster than permanent teeth. Primary teeth may require shorter pretreatment time of dentin for G-I restoration than that of permanent teeth.

This paper describes the restoration and display of a large jar coffin at the Naju National Museum. Excavated from Tomb No. 3 at Bokam-ri, Naju, the large jar is 194 cm in height and its rim diameter is 108 cm. The jar had been broken into approximately forty fragments prior to its restoration, and a supporting structure was installed to ensure the safety of the relic during the restoration process. The restoration was conducted inside a visible storage for large jar coffins for approximately three weeks from February 5 to February 27, 2018. Over two weeks during this period, the restoration efforts inside the storage were visible to the public in the permanent exhibition space so that visitors could observe the process in person. This was planned to help visitors understand and arouse their interest in large-sized relics such as jar coffins and the restoration process. This study also investigates the practices of overseas institutions in order to suggest plans for raising public awareness of conservation treatment at conservation science centers.

Background The use of anatomic implants has improved the aesthetic results of breast surgery; however, implant malrotation is an uncommon, but serious complication of these procedures. Nevertheless, little research has explored implant adhesion. In this study, we investigated adhesion between the expander and the capsule. Methods Seventy-nine cases of immediate breast reconstruction via two-stage implant-based reconstruction performed between September 2016 and November 2017 were evaluated. Mentor CPX4 expanders were used in 14 breasts, and Natrelle expanders in 65. We analyzed areas of adhesion on the surfaces of the tissue expanders when they were exchanged with permanent implants. We investigated whether adhesions occurred on the cephalic, caudal, anterior, and/or posterior surfaces of the expanders. Results Total adhesion occurred in 18 cases, non-adhesion in 15 cases, and partial adhesion in 46 cases. Of the non-adhesion cases, 80% (n=12) were with Mentor CPX4 expanders, while 94.4% (n=17) of the total adhesion cases were with Natrelle expanders. Of the partial adhesion cases, 90.7% involved the anterior-cephalic surface. The type of tissue expander showed a statistically significant relationship with the number of attachments in both univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses (P<0.001) and with total drainage only in the univariate analysis (P=0.015). Conclusions We sought to identify the location(s) of adhesion after tissue expander insertion. The texture of the implant was a significant predictor of the success of adhesion, and partial adhesion was common. The anterior-cephalic surface showed the highest adhesion rate. Nevertheless, partial adhesion suffices to prevent unwanted rotation of the expander.

Oligodontia is defined as a congenital tooth agenesis with the absence of six or more permanent teeth. This clinical report describes a patient with non-syndromic partial oligodontia, with retained deciduous teeth and the absence of 16 permanent teeth. Anterior esthetic problems were caused by interarch tooth size discrepancy, interdental space, aberrant tooth dimensions, and the absence of centric contacts of the anterior teeth. Prosthetic restoration after orthodontic and implant treatment was performed with a multi-disciplinary team approach. Favorable functional and esthetic results were obtained using a definitive prosthesis.

The infraocclusion is defined as a condition, in which teeth are present with their occlusal surface below the neighboring teeth, and long after, they reach occlusion. The most common cause of infra-occlusion is thought to be ankylosis. The treatment options for patient with infraocclusion of primary molars are observation, restoration and surgical removal of the affected teeth. We report a case of 8 - year - old boy who visited our clinic for consultation of orthodontic treatment. The patient was diagnosed by multiple infraoccluded primary molars with permanent successors. Surgical extraction were performed on primary molars. After follow-up of 7 months period, #44, 45 were erupted and the degree of posterior open bite was decreased.

A 8-year-old patient presented with a crown-root fracture of the maxillary right central incisor with an oblique subgingival fracture line. A multidisciplinary treatment approach including endodontic treatment, surgical extraction and intraalveolar repositioning was used to gain sufficient crown length of the fractured maxillary incisor. The coronally repositioned maxillary right central incisor was stabilized by a resin wire splint. Apexification using MTA was performed. Resin core and direct resin restoration(Cl IV) on fractured teeth was built up. Clinical and radiographic follow-up of the maxillary right central incisor after 36 months showed no signs of root resorption or pathology and acceptable aesthetics and functions were maintained. Surgical extrusion can be considered as a good treatment modality for young patients.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the perception and satisfaction of caregivers and parents after being covered by health insurance for light-curing composite resin fillings, and to contribute to the settlement of the expansion and coverage of health insurance. Methods: A survey was conducted on caregivers who visited two dental institutions in the Gyeonggi-do area, and parents who joined internet cafes (online communities) in the Gyeonggi-do area from June 2 to September 2, 2020. 225 responses were collected eventually, and 212 valid responses were used as analysis data. Results: 67.0% of the study subjects were aware of the permanent teeth resin fillings being covered by health insurance and the satisfaction was relatively high (91.5%). There was a statistically significant difference in the perception of permanent tooth resin filling benefits according to the child's oral condition (p=0.025) and the parents' own interest in oral health (p=0.039). Conclusions: Based on the results of this study, it is necessary to increase the accessibility to the initial treatment for dental care of children through active promotion of detailed items of permanent teeth resin fillings.

The museum starts from drawing many visitors by opening remarkable exhibitions, and finally aims to realize the social and educational value. However artifacts on exhibition have antithetic conditions like limitation of collection, problems of preservation, etc. Already the museum exhibited paintings and fine arts reproduced with complete fidelity, so artistic artifacts have meet the aims of exhibition. we would like to make an alternative proposal about costume relics in this way. Costume relics need to reproduce in two ways. The one way is to reproduce with complete fidelity and the other way is to restore the original form. The reproduction and restoration need a concrete survey, historical research, textile like artifacts. Furthermore it is important to reconstruct breakage and discoloration. Permanent exhibition consisted of reproductions helps appreciating as well as protecting artifacts, so exhibition effect will be enhanced.
