Distal extension partial dentures are supported by both the relatively rigid teeth and the resilient mucosa. So impression techniques of residual alveolar ridge in case of distal extension partial denture have particular importance in order to broad distribution of the masticatory force. McLean recognized the need for recording the tissues supporting distal extension partial denture base in functional form to equalize the resilient and non-resilient support, and this was called functional impression. Many investigators proposed various techniques of the functional impression for a distal extension partial denture, but only a little studies were performed about displacement of soft tissue under distal extension partial denture base. The purpose of this study is to investigate the amount of vertical displacement of the soft tissue under distal extension partial denture base by different functional impression techniques. Impression techniques used were Z.O.P. Impression, Selective Tissue Placement Impression, Functional Relining Impression. Measurement of the vertical displacement of soft tissue were made with Depth Gauge and Measuring Platform. A Anatomic Impression was used as a control. The results were tested statistically using 3 way ANOVA and Scheffe test. The followings were the results obtained from this study. 1. The greatest amount of soft tissue displacement was observed in the center of the retromolar pad. 2. No significant differences were found between the crest of alveolar ridge and the buccal shelf area. 3. The greatest soft tissue displacement was observed in Functional Relining Impression using Iowa wax, and the least displacement was observed in Selective Tissue Placement Impression using murcaptan rubber base. 4. No significant differences were found between finger pressure and biting pressure in Z.O.P. Impression, but greater displacement was observed by biting pressure than finger pressure in Functional Reling Impression.

Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common type of oral cancer and odontogenic myxoma is relatively uncommon benign tumor of mesenchymal origin. There are, to our knowledge, no prior reports of simultaneously occurring squamous cell carcinoma and odontogenic myxoma of the jaw bones. In this case, at first, the plain films and computed tomograms revealed a large expansile multilocular radiolucent lesion on left mandible and marked expansion of cortical plate. In addition this radiograms revealed also infiltrative bony destruction of anterior and medial border of ascending ramus of left mandible and alveolar bone of left maxilla, floating teeth on left lower molar area and metastatic enlargement of left submandibular, jugular digastric and spinal accessory lymphnodes. Magnetic resonance imaging of this patient revealed infiltrative growth of tumor on alveolar bone of left maxilla, left retromolar fat pad. left masseter and left medial pterygoid muscle. Intraoral presurgical biopsy presented typical features of squamous cell carcinoma. After chemotherapy with radiation therapy during 6 months. this central lesion was diagnosed as odontogenic myxoma by the postsurgical biopsy. After 3 months, this patient presented multiple metastatic signs at lumbar spines, rib and liver. Consequently, our case is simultaneous occurrence of squamous cell carcinoma and odontogenic myxoma.

PURPOSE. The purpose of this diagnostic study was to assess the accuracy and time efficiency of a digital method to draw the denture foundation extension outline on preliminary casts compared with the conventional technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A total of 28 preliminary edentulous casts with no anatomical landmarks were digitized using a laboratory scanner. The outlining of the entire basal seat of the denture was performed on preliminary casts and digitized. Casts with no extension outline were digitized and outlines were drawn using software (DWOS, Straumann). The accuracy of the extension outlined between both techniques was evaluated in the software (GOM Inspect; GOM GmbH) by file superimposition. Specificity and sensitivity tests were applied to measure accuracy. The paired t-test (95% CI) was used to compare the mean total area and the working time. RESULTS. The accuracy ranged from 0.57 to 0.92. The buccal and labial frenulum showed a lower value in the maxilla (0.57); while the area between the retromolar pad and buccal frenulum (0.64) showed a lower score in the mandible. The maxillary denture foundation and the working time for both arches were significantly longer for the digital method (P < .001). CONCLUSION. The denture foundation extension outline exhibited a sufficiently excellent accuracy for the digital method, except for the maxillary anterior region. However, the digital method required a longer working time.

The ultimate goal of periodontal therapy is directed to arresting the progression of the disease, and regenerating the fibrous attachment. In order to achieve such treatment aim, the plaque and calculus must be eliminated and the physiological conditions of the root surface must be changed to facilitate the attachment and migration of the new fibroblasts, The method of changing the proper root surface conditions to promote the healing of periodontal tissue involves mechanical procedures, such as scaling and root planing, and chemical procedures such as tetracycline-HCl. However, the formation of a long junctional epithelium was most frequently observed type of healing. Thus, the aim of this study was to examine in vitro the influence of surface conditioning of dentin by TC-HCl on human gingival epithelial cell attachment. Human gingival epithelial cells were obtained from healthy retromolar pad area(under the age 23 years). Seventy two teeth extracted from severe periodontitis were used as study material. To evaluate the epithelial cell attachment to dentin, the prepared specimen was divided to four groups. For the control group, only scaling and root planing were carried out, and for the test group, 1 to 3, the concentration of the TC-HCl was 50, 125 and 250mg/ml respectively. After cell cultivation time of 1-, 3-. 24 hour, for the indirect quantitative assessment of gingival epithelial cell attached to dentin sample, the absorbance of epithelial cell unattached to dentin was measured. The results were as follows; 1. There was no statistically significant difference between scaling and root planing group and TC-HCl 50mg/ml 125mg/ml and 250mg/ml group about absorbance of unattached epithelial cell to dentin sample(p>0.5). 2. As time passes, the absorbance of unattached gingival epithelial cell to dentin sample was decreased statistically significant(p<0.05). 3. There was no statistically significant difference among the TC-HCl group(p>0.05) We concluded that there was similar effect on gingival epithelial cell attachment between TC-HCl conditioning on root surface and only scaling and root planing treatment

본 증례는 65세 남환으로, 10년 전 편도암으로 하악골이단술을 시행한 환자에서 중립대를 활용한 상하악 총의치 수복 증례이다. 본 환자는 무치악 기간이 짧아 치초제의 흡수가 거의 없으며, 혀의 운동기능에도 이상이 없었지만, 수술 이후의 변화로 인해 하악의 후구치 삼각융기가 상악의 구상절흔보다 안쪽에 위치해 있으며 하악의 구치부 치조제는 상대적으로 설측으로 돌아간 구조를 보였다. 만약 통상적으로 해부학적 지표를 참고하여 치아를 배열한다면, 혀의 기능 공간을 침범하게 되며, 이는 의치의 안정성을 저하시킬 것이다. 이런 경우 중립대 개념을 적용한 의치의 제작은 좋은 참고점이 될 수 있을 것이다. 연성 이장재를 사용하여 중립대를 인기하였으며, 이를 인덱스로 제작하여 치아배열을 시행하였다. 중립대의 가장 큰 장점은 의치의 안정을 얻는 것에 있다. 본 환자의 경우 하악 좌측 구치부가 혀 공간을 침범하지 않도록 구치 치아의 설측배열 한계를 얻기 위해 중립대 기법을 적용하였다. 특히, 치조제의 흡수로 의치의 안정성을 얻기 어려운 난증례 환자의 경우 이러한 방법을 사용한다면 의치의 안정성 면에서 더욱 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있을 것이라 보기에 본 증례를 보고하는 바이다.

목적: 일반적으로 총의치는 환자의 구내에서 제거 시 물에 담가 보관하도록 설명하는데, 수중에서의 총의치의 보관이 상온의 공기중에서 총의치를 보관하는 것과 비교해 체적 안정성에 장점이 있는지에 대한 연구는 부족하다. 본 연구는 의치의 올바른 보관 방법을 규정하는 데에 참고가 될 수 있도록, 수중에서 보관하는 경우와 공기중에 보관하는 경우에 의치상의체적 변화량과 양상을 평가하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 재료 및 방법: 초경석고로 제작한 주모형을 디지털 스캔하여, computer-aided design (CAD) 소프트웨어를 이용해 총의치 의치상을 디자인하고, 3D printing 기법을 이용하여 상악과 하악 각 6개의 시편을 제작하였다. 이를 매몰한 후 열중합 방식으로 온성하여 제작한 레진의치상을 상악과 하악 각 3개씩 그룹 A와 그룹 B로 나누었다. 그룹 A는 상온의 공기중에서 보관되었고, 그룹 B는 상온의 물에 담가 보관하며 24시간 간격으로 28일 동안 스캔하여 stereolithogrphy (SLA) 파일로 저장하였다. 이를 분석하여 한달 간의 체적변화를 측정하였고, best-fit 알고리즘을 이용하여 중첩시켜 3차원 비교 컬러맵을 이용하여 의치상 인상면의 변화 양상을 관찰하였다. 측정한 값은 Kruskal-Wallis test를 이용하여 분석하였다. 결과: 보관방법에 상관없이 총 체적에는 유의한 변화가 없었으나, 공기 중에서 보관한 의치상의 경우 상악 구개부와 하악 구치부 설측 변연에서 조직과 멀어지는 방향으로, 상악 결절부와 하악 후구치 삼각 융기 부위에서는 조직을 압박하는 방향으로 통계적으로 유의한 변화를 보였다. 결론: 수중에서의 의치 보관은 공기중에서의 의치 보관에 비해 의치상 인상면의 변화가 적게 나타났다.
