본 연구는 얼굴근전도(facial EMG)가 다양한 시각자극에 의해서 유발된 감성을 평가할 수 있는가를 알아보고자 하였다. 특히 감성의 차원중 각성-이완차원에서의 차이를 얼굴근전도를 이용하여 객관적으로 측정할 수 있는가를 알아보았다. 사용된 자극은 15개의 시각자극이었다 . 각각의 자극은 30초씩 무선적으로 제시되었고, 각 자극의 제시사이마다 120초씩의 휴식기를 두었다. 매 자극제시후 피험자는 제시된 자극에 대해 각성-이완의 정도를 주관적으로 평가하였다. 실험참가자는 25명의 여자대학생이었으며, 왼쪽이마의 추미근(corrugator muscle)과 빰의 관골근(zygomatic muscle)의 얼굴근전도를 측정하였다. 측정된 얼굴근전도에 대해서 절대값을 취해 면적을 구하였다. 최대 각성(the most arousing stimulus), 최소 각성(the least arousing stimulus), 최소이완(the least relaxing stimulus), 최대이완(the most relaxing stimulus)이라고 피험자들마다 주관적으로 평가한 가극에 대한 얼굴근전도를 비교.분석하였다. 그 결과 이마의 추미근이 각성과 이완감성의 차이를 변별할 수 있었다. 즉 각성감성을 느낄수록 이마의 추미근의 활동이 증가함을 보였다. 또한 최대각성감성을 느낄때 이마의 추미근의 활동이 증가함을 보였다. 결론적으로, 얼굴근전도가 다양한 시각자극에 의해 유발된 감성의 각성-이완차원을 측정할 수 있는 좋은 지표가 될수 있음을 나타낸다.

Strabismus is a misalignment of the eyes. It is divided into paralytic strabismus and non-paralytic strabismus. There are so many causes in paralytic strabismus, and the oculomotor nerve palsy is one of them. Many studies reported the etiology and clinical features of oculomotor nerve palsy. Common causes of oculomotor nerve palsy are idiopathic, vascula.; disease, aneurysm, head trauma, neoplasm and miscellaneous. Recently the proportion of traumatic cause has been increased, but the treatment is difficult as it used to be. In this case report, one case of traumatic oculomotor nerve palsy with zygomatic arch Fx and clavicle Fx were treated by herbal medicine and acupuncture. After Treatment, symptoms- ptosis, deviation of Lt. eye to downward & outward in primary position, diplopia, limited adduction & elevation & depression, dilated pupil without pupil reflex- were improved. There are so many hypothesises but no definite guide lines are established about the oriental medical treatment of oculomotor nerve palsy, so we expect the establishment of definite guide lines by further clinical studies.

Squamous cell carcinoma was diagnosed in a 4.5-year-old male African hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris). The patient was referred to Seoul National University, Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital after 5 days history of left eye exophthalmos and corneal trauma. He had enlarged upper and lower jaw at the left part of the face and endophthalmitis of the left eye. On radiographic examinations, loss of bone density at the left zygomatic arch and sun-burst type periosteal reaction of left mandible with decreased bone density was noted. Histologically, the neoplastic mass consisted of markedly invasive, cords of nests of squamous epithelial cells. Intercellular bridges and keratin pearl formation were also noted.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the stress distribution and the displacement in the maxillary complex after the application of the reverse headgear. The direction of force was parallel to the occlusal plane. Orthopedic force,300gm, was applied to the maxilla of the dry human skull in a forward direction. The stress distribution and the displacement within the maxillary Complex was analyzed by a 3-dimensional finite element method. The results were as follows: 1. The stress distribution at the molar region was greater than that at the anterior. 2. The stress distribution at the lateral side of the premaxilla was greater than that at the middle aide, especially high stress was noted at the canine eminence. 9. Compressive stress was noted only at the frontozygomatic suture of the zygomatic arch. 4. A forward, upward, and sideward displacement was noted at the entire nodal points of the zygomaticomaxillary suture portion. A displacement with a slight rotation was observed on the transverse palatine suture. 5. The maximum stress was observed at the lateral side of the maxillary tuberosity area, and generally the forward and downward displacement was noted at all this area.

Recently, rapid palatal expansion technique is widely used for the correction of the skeletal imbalance in Cl III malocclusion patients. There were many studies about the cephalometric changes to rapid palatal expansion but quantitative analysis were small. The purpose of this study was to analysis the stresses and displacement of the maxilla in human dry skull to rapid palatal expansion. The results were as follows: 1. The anterior portion of palate show more lateral and inferior displacement than the posterior portion. But the posterior portion show more anterior displacement. 2. In transpalatal suture area, the medial portion show more anterior and inferior displacement than the lateral portion. But the lateral portion show more lateral displacement than the medial portion. 3. In mid-sagittal plane, the lower portion (palatal area) of maxilla show more anterior, lateral, inferior displacement than the upper portion (frontamaxillary stuture area). 4. In zygomatic arch, the adjacent area to maxilla show tonsil. stresses and the adjacent area to frontal bone show compressive stresses. 5. The sequence of stress bearing area to R.P.E. is upper retromolar area, upper 1st molar, 1st premolar, 2nd premolar, anterior segment of teeth.

Inflammatory pseudotumor was originally described in the lung, but recently has been recognized to occur in various sites. A 56-year-old female was referred to our department with a painless swelling of the right midfacial area since 3 months ago. Clinical examination showed non-specific intraoral findings, but asymmetric facial appearance and numbness of the right midfacial area. Plain radiographs and CT images showed aggressive destruction and irregular thickening of the right maxillary sinus wall, increased antral opacification, and destruction of the zygomatic arch. A relatively well-defined soft tissue mass occupied the right maxillary sinus, nasal cavity, zygoma, and infraorbital region. The soft tissue mass showed mild enhancement on CT. Radiographically, this lesion presented a rapidly enlarging mass demonstrating aggressive behavior, mimicking a malignant tumor. Histopathologic examinations showed plasma cells and inflammatory cells in variable fibrotic tissues and demonstrated positive reactivity for vimentin. No malignent changes could be found.

Coronoid process hyperplasia is a rare condition that causes mouth opening limitation, otherwise known as trismus. The elongated coronoid processes impinge on the medial surfaces of the zygomatic arches when opening the mouth, which limits movement of the mandible and leads to trismus. Patients with trismus due to coronoid process hyperplasia do not have any definite symptoms such as temporomandibular joint pain or sounds upon clinical examination, and no significant abnormal signs are observed on panoramic radiographs or magnetic resonance images of the temporomandibular joint. Thus, the diagnosis of trismus is usually very difficult. However, computed tomography can help with the diagnosis, and the condition can be treated by surgery and postoperative physical therapy. This paper describes four cases of patients who visited our clinic for trismus and were subsequently diagnosed with coronoid process hyperplasia. Three were successfully treated with a coronoidectomy and postoperative physical therapy.

This report constitutes a 7-year study of facial fractures based on a series of 616 patients who were treated for facial fractures as in-patients at Chosun University Dental Hospital between 1998 and April 2005. The following results were obtained : 1. The ratio of men to women was 5 : 1. 2. The major etiological factors were falls (36.2%), traffic accidents (23.4%), punches (18.1%), sports (8.3%), and accidents related to work (2.8%). 3. They were most frequent in the second (28.8%), first (26.6%), and third (12.3) decades, in that order. 4. The sites of frequent mandible fracture are the symphysis (32%), left mandibular angle (25.3%), and right mandibular angle (10.9%). 5. The most frequent maxillary fractures were zygomatic fractures (46.4%), Le Fort I fractures (28.8%), and Le Fort II (12.0%) fractures.

Dental implants are a common treatment for the loss of teeth. This paper summarizes current knowledge on implant surfaces, immediate loading versus conventional loading, short implants, sinus lifting, and custom implants using three-dimensional printing. Most of the implant surface modifications showed good osseointegration results. Regarding biomolecular coatings, which have been recently developed and studied, good results were observed in animal experiments. Immediate loading had similar clinical outcomes compared to conventional loading and can be used as a successful treatment because it has the advantage of reducing treatment times and providing early function and aesthetics. Short implants showed similar clinical outcomes compared to standard implants. A variety of sinus augmentation techniques, grafting materials, and alternative techniques, such as tilted implants, zygomatic implants, and short implants, can be used. With the development of new technologies in three-dimension and computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) customized implants can be used as an alternative to conventional implant designs. However, there are limitations due to the lack of long-term studies or clinical studies. A long-term clinical trial and a more predictive study are needed.

Blink reflex could be a useful tool to differentiate facial synkinesis as one of complications of facial neuropathy, from volitional associated movements. We had performed applied blink reflex test for 23 patients with objective evidence of hemifacial weakness in which orbicularis oculi muscle(zygomatic branch) and mentalis muscle(mandibular branch) are electrophysiologically evaluated in response to supraorbital stimulation of trigeminal nerve. For an unaffected side of face there is no evidence of positive blink reflex from the mentalis muscle. We concluded that a positive blink reflex from mentalis muscle is almost always suggestive of chronic facial neuropathy even in clinical silence of facial synkinesis, or an aberrant reinnervation after peripheral facial neuropathy, and does not electrophysiologically correlate with the severity of facial palsy.
