Prosthodontic treatment planning for various edentulous arches is not an easy issue for dentists. Especially, in case of removable partial denture, we must have a knowledge of overall treatment procedures, and a careful approach is needed. Recently, interest of dental implant and case reports are increasing, the decrease of the removable partial denture is true, but dental implantation takes longer treatment period and it is more expensive. Also, there are still some limitations like lack of available alveolar bone, patient's general condition, and chronic periodontitis. Therefore, sometimes implantation is impossible. Finally, implantation cannot be adapted to every single patient. Currently, the clasp type removable partial dentures are used routinely, giving patients many unesthetic and functional difficulties. With better laboratory technique, removable partial denture with attachment and removable partial denture in rigid type increase patient's happiness level much more than predicted. The case presented in this article, clinically demonstrate the efficiency of using a telescopic system to improve esthetic and functional recovery for patients who lose multiple teeth.

This is about the case of loss of multiple teeth and alveolar bone caused by trauma, which needed alveolar bone augmentation before implant treatment. Alveolar bone was reconstructed using iliac bone graft, and thereafter first implant surgery was followed by consolidation period of 3 months. Iliac bone resorption was observed at the time of implant placement. And that resorption was more in the horizontal dimension than in the vertical. We conclude that additional treatment planning(e.g. using alveolar distraction osteogenesis or tissue expander) should be considered besides bone graft for vertical alveolar bone augmentation. For both maxilla and mandible, prosthodontic treatment was carried out $4{\sim}5$ months after implant placement. To compensate alveolar bone deficiency, partial hybrid overdenture on maxilla and implant-supported fixed bridge on mandible were fabricated, and the total treatment was finished.

Molar extrusion is a quite common problem in prosthodontic patients. It is caused due to the loss or infraocclusion of opposing teeth. A more conservative approach than reduction of the coronal part of extruded tooth is to intrude the malaligned molar orthodontically. Several authors have presented the cases of molar intrusion, by cither removable or fixed appliances. However, the design of those appliances was complex so that many teeth were included as an anchorage unit. This increased the patient's discomfort inevitably. Moreover, the results could be unpredictable. Instead of these conventional methods, skeletal anchorage has been suggested for ideal force system to intrude a molar without any side effects. Many recent clinical reports presented the cases using microscrew or miniplate as a direct anchorage, which included some limitation. The purpose of this report is to introduce the indirect skeletal anchorage for intrusion of extruded maxillary molar.

Purpose: The aim of augmentation of the alveolar ridge is to restore absorbed alveolar ridges for future implant site or esthetic prosthodontic restoration. The present clinical report describes the anterior maxillary augmentation cases using a soft tissue rotated palatal flap, and considers various problems of before and after surgery. Method: First & second patients were treated by vascularized interpositional periosteal-connective tissue(VIP-CT) flap for horizontal soft tissue augmentation. Especially second patient was progressed with bone grafting at the same time. Third patient was treated by the same flap with bone graft and implant placement in single tooth missing premaxillary area. Result: The obtained horizontal augmentation width measured $0.5{\sim}2.7\;mm$. Conclusion: This technique constitutes a viable approach for augmentation the anterior sector of alveolar ridge with the placement of dental implants. But it needs correct diagnosis preparation and careful surgery skill.

Cementation is the last procedure and an important factor to access successful fixed prosthodontic treatment. Even though there are many kinds of luting materials in dental field, the resin cements are popularly used in now. Metals, polymers and ceramics are used as a material of fixed dental prosthesis. The bonding mechanisms between teeth and fixed restorations are composed of mechanical and chemical mechanism. In dentistry, we are relying on mechanical bonding, but we tried to get chemical bonding and many ways are introduced. So, we have to approach luting procedure differently by the materials of prosthesis for clinical success. In this article, let us think the proper cementation ways according to each prosthesis material.

무치악 환자에서 임플란트 고정성 보철 수복의 장점은 안정성, 편안함을 들 수 있으며, 생물학적 측면으로는 하악골 흡수를 방지할 수 있고 저작기능이 향상된다는 이점이 있다. 그중 하이브리드형 보철 수복은 하악골 이공사이에 4 - 6개의 임플란트를 식립하고 양쪽 원심으로 캔틸레버를 만들어 구치부 치아를 대체하게 된다. 본 증례는 85세 여성 환자로 상하악의 무치악 상태로 본원에 내원하였다. 상악의 가철성 총의치, 하악의 임플란트 하이브리드형 보철물로 최종 치료하여 치료 후 기능적, 심미적으로 만족스러운 결과를 얻었기에 이를 보고하고자 한다.

In the posterior maxillary area, due to resorption of the ridge after extraction and pneumatization of the maxillary sinus, the height of the alveolar ridge may not be sufficient for placement of implants. To solve this problem, sinus augmentation using both crestal and lateral approaches have been widely used. Jung et al. (2010) introduced the modified lateral approach technique, which is a simplified technique that combines the advantages of crestal and lateral approaches. The purpose of this case report is to report two cases in the posterior maxilla in which simultaneous implant placement with maxillary sinus augmentation has been performed using the modified lateral approach technique. In two female patients, 67 and 74 years old, respectively, simultaneous implant placement was performed using the modified lateral approach technique on the left maxillary second premolar and the first molar. In both patients, the residual bone height on the distal side of the maxillary second premolar was measured to be approximately 5 mm, and the residual bone height of the first molar was measured to be 2-3 mm. After flap elevation, osteotomy of the lateral window was performed in the form of a mesiodistally extended slot above the sinus floor and the Schneiderian membrane was elevated. Sequenced drilling was performed while protecting the membrane with a periosteal elevator. Bone graft and implant placement was performed after preparation of the implant site. Sufficient primary stability was achieved for each implant and sinus membrane was not perforated. After four and five months respectively, implant second surgery was performed. Clinically, the implants were observed to be stable. Implants and surrounding peri-implant mucosa were well maintained after prosthodontic treatment. In conclusion, the modified lateral approach could be a predictable and efficient technique for implant placement in the atrophied posterior maxilla.

Purpose: To compare the case of widespread maxillary osteomyelitis treated through different approach. Method: We report the two case of osteomyelitis. In a case, we had gradually removed the small amount of sequestrum for several times. In the other case, intended Le Fort I fracture was done to approach the lesion. Result: In the gradual sequestrectomy case, bone formations were found after 4 months. In the other case, after intended Le Fort I down fracture, sequestrectomy of Lt. maxilla was done with the labiobuccal alveolar bone preserved for the prosthodontic treatment.
