Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the impact of different compressive forces on deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) particles covered by native bilayer collagen membrane (NBCM) during alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) in the molar area, and to identify any histomorphometric and clinical differences according to the compressive force applied. Methods: Sockets were filled with DBBM after tooth extraction, and different compressive forces (30 N and 5 N, respectively) were applied to the graft material in the test (30 N) and control (5 N) groups. The DBBM in both groups was covered with NBCM in a double-layered fashion. A crossed horizontal mattress suture (hidden X) was then made. A core biopsy was performed using a trephine bur without flap elevation at the implant placement site for histomorphometric evaluations after 4 months. The change of the marginal bone level was measured using radiography. Results: Twelve patients completed the study. The histomorphometric analysis demonstrated that the mean ratios of the areas of new bone, residual graft material, and soft tissue and the implant stability quotient did not differ significantly between the groups (P>0.05). However, the mean size of the residual graft material showed a significant intergroup difference (P<0.05). Conclusions: The application of 2 compressive forces (5 N, 30 N) on particulate DBBM grafts during open-healing ARP in the posterior area led to comparable new bone formation, implant feasibility and peri-implant bone level.

근막극(fascial space)이란 느슨한 결체조직으로 채워진 근층(fascial plane)사이에 존재하는 잠재적인 공간으로 두개악안면 부위에는 복잡한 해부학적 구조와 근육들에 의해 많은 근막 간극이 존재한다. 이들 근막극은 두개악안면부위에 감염이 존재할 경우 일반적으로 근층에 의하여 자연적으로 감염의 확산이 제한되기도 하지만, 감염의 정도가 심한 경우에는 이러한 근층이 파괴되어 감염이 인접 근막 간극으로 전파되는 자연적인 통로가 되며 이로 인해 안면과 경부의 심층까지 감염이 확산되기도 한다. 치성감염이 연조직내로 침투하면 결체조직을 통하여 그리고 근막극을 따라 최소저항의 방향으로 확산되므로 염증은 치성 원인에서 먼 곳까지 파급될 수 있고 심지어는 생명까지도 위험하게 된다. 두경부 연조직의 감염은 현대에는 다양한 항생제가 발달되어 치료에 도움을 주고 있으나, 조기에 적절한 치료가 이루어지지 않을 경우에는 기도폐쇄, 균혈증, 뇌농양, 혈전성 정맥염 등의 심각한 합병증을 야기할 수 있으므로 이들에 대한 조기진단과 적극적인 치료가 필요하겠다. 본 증례에서는 두경부 악안면 근막극 농양환아에 있어서 근관내 배농을 통하여 치료한 바 외과적 술식을 이용한 치료에 비하여 다음과 같은 잇점이 있는것으로 평가되어 이에 보고하는 바이다. 1) 입원을 피함으로서 환자의 경제적 부담 감소 2) 시술의 편의성 3) 환아의 공포감 조성 방지

도재 라미네이트 비니어(Porcelain laminate veneer, PLV)는 아주 얇은 도재를 치면에 직접 적용시키는 술식으로 전치부 심미 개선을 목적으로 전부피개관 대신에 보존적으로 사용될 수 있다. 그러나 PLV의 성공을 높이기 위해 치질 삭제량을 적절히 조절하는 것은 어려울 뿐만 아니라, 각 치아마다 법랑질 두께가 다양하고 증령에 따라 치관구조 역시 변화하기 때문에 치아 삭제시 주의가 필요하다. 즉 치아 순면을 따라 일관되게 삭제하는 기존의 방법을 이용할 경우 법랑질이 얇아진 부위에서는 상아질이 노출될 위험이 있다. 이를 방지하기 위해 다양한 치아 삭제 방법들이 소개되고 있는데 진단 납형제작을 통한 실리콘 인덱스와 아크릴릭 레진 mock-up을 이용한 방법은 최종적인 수복물의 형태에 기초하여 치아를 삭제할 수 있어 불필요한 법랑질 삭제를 줄이고 상아질 노출을 최소화할 수 있다. 또한 비정상적으로 배열된 치아 삭제시에도 적절한 삭제량 결정이 어려워 삭제량이 과도해지거나 부족해지기 쉬운데, 최종 보철물의 형태를 기준으로 실리콘 인덱스를 제작하면 이를 방지할 수 있다.

With rising prevalency of mouth breathing children caused by developing civilization and increasing pollution, there are many maxillary transverse discrepancy patients with undergrowth of maxilla. For improving this, maxillary mid-palatal suture splitting was often performed. The purpose of this study was to analyse the stress distribution on the craniofacial suture and cranium after rapid maxillary expansion by finite element model. The boy(13Y6M) was chosen for taking computed-tomography for finite element model. Three-dimensional model of maxilla, first premolar, first molar, buccal and lingual part of rapid maxillary expansion were constructed. 1. The alveolar bone adjacent to the first molar and the first premolar that was affected directly by rapid maxillary expansion was displaced laterally approximately 4.04mm at maximum. The force decreased toward anterior region and frontal alveolar bone displaced laterally about 3.18mm. 2. A forward maximum displacement was exhibited at zygomatic process middle region. 3. At maximum, maxillary median part experienced 0.973mm downward repositioning and 0.65mm upward repositioning at lateral alveolar bone. 4. Von mises stress was observed the largest stress distribution around teeth and zygomatic buttress. 5. The largest tensile force was observed around alveolar bone of teeth, while compression force was observed at zygomatic buttress.

The purpose of the study was to examine health status and mini nutritional assessment (MNA) according to self-esteem status of elderly in care hospital. The survey was carried out from $13^{th}$ to $31^{st}$ of September, 2014 in five care hospitals. Analysis was performed for 226 subjects. Evaluation criteria included demographics, clinical status, MNA, health-related quality of life (EQ-5D) and self-esteem. The SE I, SE II and SE III groups were divided by self-esteem scores. Data were analyzed one-way ANOVA, Duncan' multiple range test and Pearson's correlation using SPSS 15.0. Education level, religion, dental condition and medical endurance type were significantly different in all groups. Many elderly people were normal BMI ($20.94{\sim}21.67kg/m^2$). Self-esteem significantly increased in order of SE I, SE II and SE III. Mobility, usual activity and anxiety or depression were significantly different in all groups, and EQ-5D of SE II and SE III groups were significantly higher than that of SE I group. Comparison of MNA screening score in elderly patients was as follows : Score for food intake, psychological stress or acute disease, neuropsychological problems, pressure scores or skin ulcer, protein intake, mode of feeding, nutritional status and health status in SE I group were significantly lower than those of SE II and SE III groups. Mobility and drug intake of SE I group were significantly lower than those of SE III groups. Fruit and vegetable intake SE I group were significantly higher than those of SE II and SE III groups. MIS (Malnutrition Indicator Score) was significantly different among the SE I, SE II and SE III groups. We conclude that self-esteem score is positively correlated with protein intake, nutrition status, health status and MIS in elderly care hospital. To improve nutritional status of elderly in care hospitals, systematic nutrition management and self-esteem education program should be implemented.

Introducing to the market place, safe and effective product is an important responsibility of clinical investigators as well as regulatory agencies in all developed countries. Products claiming to improve skin wrinkles are no exceptions. To date, Renova(R) (all-trans retinoic acid), Avage(R) (tazarotene), and Botox(R) (botulinum toxin) are the only agents FDA approved to ameliorate wrinkles associated with photoaged skin in the USA. For all three, clinical evaluation of wrinkle severity was the primary endpoint required for the approval process. No sophisticated instrument measurements of wrinkles were required, nor used in the pivotal studies. The Division of Dermatologic & Dental Products of the US FDA (Director, Jonathan Wilkin, MD) is not against the use of mechanical instruments in assessing wrinkle severity. Its position on this issue however, remains that any such device must be grounded in patients' or product users' perspective, which means that the evaluation instrument must be clinically relevant and clinically perceptible. Sophisticated devices that can detect minimal improvement, but imperceptible to the users are considered useless in the eyes of the US FDA. Two instruments that have been tried in some antiwrinkle studies in the USA are silicone replicas and Primos. Despite their sophistications, they have clear limitations; thus have never replaced clinical evaluations in these studies. At most, they have served as secondary measures to provide corroborative data on the clinical efficacy of antiwrinkle products. For the foreseeable future, at least in the USA, careful clinical assessment of wrinkles will continue to serve as the critical benchmark to determine whether an antiwrinkle product has enough efficacy to benefit its users. We must not lose sight of the fact that sophisticated devices are only to serve in generating supportive evidence, and not the primary evidence, in any clinical studies.

The congenital deformities of cleft lip and cleft palate have been known to afflict man since prehistoric time. Efforts to correct these abnormities have evolved over the centuries as scientific knowledge has advanced. Although there is no agreement as to when the surgery should be performed, most surgeons adhere to "rule of 10" : the infant must be 10 week old weigh 10 Ibs, have a hemoglobin value 10gm/dl and have a white blood cell count no greater than 10 $thousands/mm^3$. Consensus favors performing initial palatal surgery in the child when he is between 18 and 24 months old. The timing of cleft alveolus surgery is usually between 10 and 11 years old. In the period from 1992 to 1996, 38 patients with cleft lip and cleft palate treated at the department of oral and maxillofacial surgery, Chosun university, dental hospital were analysed clinically. The obtained results were as follows. 1. The ratio of male to female was 1.92 : 1 (25/23) 2. The ratio of cleft lip, cleft palate and cleft lip & palate was 1.5 : 1 : 2.5 (12/8/18) 3. The ratio of unilateral to bilateral cleft lip was 5 : 1 (25/5) 4. The ratio of left to right side in unilateral cleft lip was 1.5 : 1 (15/10)

This research was performed to find out the adaptation patterns of maxillary and mandibular posterior teeth to the changes in relationships of vertical skeletal components, which constitute the skeletofacial complex. For this research, 61 adult malocclusion patients were chosen as subjects according to the Hellman's dental age with normally ranged FMN-A-B angle. These subjects were divided into 4 groups in maxilla and 3 groups in mandible according to mesiodistal inclinations of teeth. Following results were obtained after studying the relationships of the vertical skeletal components between each group. 1. Inspire of the fact that the FMN-A-B angle was within a normal range, the degree of mesiodistal inclinations of maxillary and mandibular posterior teeth showed differences in relation to the anteroposterior relationships of maxilla and mandible. In case where the FMN-A-B angle was large, the mesial inclinations of maxillary posterior teeth showed more increase from the posterior to the anterior, whereas in mandible it showed overall decrease. 2. The degrees of mesial inclinations of mandibular posterior teeth were increased when the angulations of lower facial height, occlusal plane angle and mandibular plane angle were greater. 3. The patterns of mesial inclinations of maxillary posterior teeth were varied according to the angulation of lower facial height. If relatively large, it showed more increase from the posterior to the anterior and it was decreased nearly consistent when the angulation was small. 4. The degrees of mesial inclinations of maxillary posterior teeth were decreased as the lower facial height, palatal plane angle, occlusal plane angle and the mandibular plane angle became greater.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the differences in cephalometric characteristics and skeletal maturation in girls with central precocious puberty (CPP) via lateral and hand-wrist radiographs. We also aimed to identify the indicators that are most effective for determining skeletal maturity in these patients. Methods: The study included 70 Korean girls (mean age, 8.5 ± 0.5 years) diagnosed with CPP at the Department of Pediatrics, and 48 normal healthy age-matched girls who visited the Department of Orthodontics and had no history of hormone treatment or growth problems. Skeletal maturation was evaluated using lateral cephalometric and hand-wrist radiographs using cervical vertebrae maturation indicators (CVMI) and skeletal maturity indicators (SMI). Results: The mean mandibular plane angle was smaller in the CPP group than in the control group (35.8° ± 4.9° vs. 39.0° ± 6.5°), resulting in greater posterior facial height (p = 0.003). SMI was significantly greater in the CPP group (3.5 ± 1.4 vs. 2.0 ± 1.0) than in the control group (p = 0.001) and was significantly associated with CPP (r = 0.492; p = 0.001), whereas CVMI was not. Conclusions: In comparison with the control group, the CPP group exhibited a smaller mandibular plane angle, greater posterior facial height, and greater skeletal maturation. SMI may be more suitable than CVMI for determining skeletal maturation in CPP. Hand-wrist radiography is recommended in addition to lateral cephalogram for predicting growth in girls with CPP.
