The investigation was undertaken to determin the altered function and structure of granulation tissue fibroblasts. Human granulation-tissue fibroblasts were cultured from periodontal chronic inflammatory lesions (SBI index : above 3) and compared with healthy gingival connective tissues fibroblasts a control(SBI index : below 1). Granulation tissue fibroblasts proliferated with a slower growth rate and exhibited larger cell size than control cells. Total protein profile of granulation tissue fibroblasts was almost identical to that of control cells with some exception. These results support tha theory that granulation tissue fibroblasts represent a distinct phenotype of fibrotic cells.

This study was to compare the patients wearing comfortable distally extending cantilever bridges (DECBs) with those having discomfortable ones, in the aspect of the periodontal condition & prosthodontic status. The subjects in the present study were 164 patients appointed to Seoul National University Dental Hospital. One group was consisted of 101 patients wearing comfortable DECBs and the other group were made of 64 patients who had felt discomfort. On clinical parameters, there were no significant difference between 2 groups in plaque index, tooth mobility & probing depth, but gingival index was higher in group wearing discomfortable DECBs. In prosthodontic status, the ratio of pontic oversize was higher in the group of discomfortable DECBs, but there were no significant difference in the view of crown overcontour, overhanging margin & interproximal space closure between 2groups. This study failed to clarify causal factors of discomfortable DECBs.

When full denture is being fabricated, pronounciation, recovery of aesthetics of function and mastificatory function should be satisfies for patients. To satisfy for the function of denture, following is the difference between this new way of fabricating and formerly one of it. 1. The size of fabricating tooth which is harmony of original oral structure for patients is deaded by manufacturing labial index and artificial tongue. 2. By the use of artificial tongue and labial index, the arranges of artificial tooth is to become harmony of oral structure. 3. Formation of gingival decided functional impression which is used by impression paste, is harmony of oral structure. Therefore, this full denture can be satisfied with pronouncing oral function of recovery of aesthetics as well as mastificatory through physiological movement of oral tissue not disturbed with anything but cooperated drastically. In manufacturing of this full denture, both dentist and dental technician under cooperation need to proceed the work on the base of importance of communication.

Purpose: The present study was conducted to evaluate the impact of scaling and root planing (SRP) on the C-reactive protein (CRP) levels of gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and serum in chronic periodontitis patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM-CP) or without type 2 diabetes mellitus (NDM-CP). Methods: Forty-eight human participants were divided into two groups: an experimental (T2DM-CP) group (group I, n=24) comprising chronic periodontitis patients with random blood sugar ${\geq}200mg/dL$ and type 2 diabetes mellitus, and control (NDM-CP) group (group II, n=24) of those with chronic periodontitis and random blood sugar <200 without T2DM for the study. All subjects underwent nonsurgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) including complete SRP and subgingival debridement. Periodontal health parameters, plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), probing pocket depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), GCF volume (GCF vol), GCF-CRP, random blood glucose (RBS), glycated hemoglobin, and systemic inflammatory markers, serum CRP, total leukocyte count (TLC), neutrophil count (Neutr) and lymphocyte count (Lymph), were evaluated at baseline, 1 month, and 3 months after SRP. Results: NSPT resulted in statistically significant improvement in periodontal health parameters (PI, GI, PPD, CAL, GCF vol), CRP levels in serum as well as GCF of both groups I and II. The mean improvement in periodontal health parameters (PI, GI, PPD, CAL, GCF vol), CRP levels in serum and GCF was greater in group I than group II after NSPT. There was nonsignificant increase in GCF-CRP, TLC, Lymph, and RBS, and a significant increase in Neutr and Serum CRP in group II at 1 month. The Serum CRP level of 20 out of 24 group II patients had also increased at 1 month. Conclusions: The CRP levels in both GCF and serum were higher in T2DM-CP patients than in NDM-CP patients. Although there was a significant improvement in both the groups, greater improvement was observed in both GCF and serum samples of T2DM-CP patients.

Periodontal disease is characterized by destruction of supporting tissues caused by invasion of plaque bacteria and defense mechanism of host. Many dentists are very interested in laser therapy on various intraoral soft tissue lesions including inflammatory periodontal pocket. In order to determine the therapeutic effect of intrapocket irradiation of a pulsed- Nd : YAG laser on the inflammatory periodontal pockets, bilateral 60 teeth with 4-6mm in probing pocket depth and gingival inflammation were selected and evaluated by sulcus bleeding index(SBI), and plaque index(pI) for baseline record. Intrapocket irradiation($300{\mu}m$ fiber optic, I.5W power, for 2 min.) of a pulsed-Nd : YAG laser(EL.EN.EN060, Italy) was applied on half of them. As the control group, the same procedure except power-off was repeated on the contralateral 30 teeth. At 1-, 2-, 3-, and 4-week after intrapocket manipulation, every tooth was reevaluated by the same clinical indices. And the difference between the lased group and control group was statistically analyzed by paired t-test and Chi-square test in Microstat program. Following results were obtained: 1. Until I-week and 2-week after intrapocket manipulation, SBI was lowered in both lased group and control group, compared to baseline SBI, but from 3-week after, the recovering tendency toward baseline was noted, and at only 2-week after, the number of teeth showing lowered SBI was significantly more in lased group than in control group(p<0.05). 2. PI of both lased group and control group was lowered through whole experimental period from I-week to 4-week after, compared to baseline PI(p<0.05), but there was no significant difference between lased group and control group(p>0.1). The results suggest that intrapocket irradiation of a pulsed-Nd:YAG laser may lead somewhat remission of gingival inflammation, but for more favorable therapeutic result the thorough root planing should be necessarily accompanied with gingival curettage.

The major cause of periodontal disease is microorganism in the dental plaque. Gingival sulcular fluid, which is exudate released from the tissue near crevicular epithelium is related with inflammation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the argon laser efficiency between the clinical index and onset of collagenase of gingival sulcular fluid. Material divided 16 patients into 4 groups. The first control was without treatmemt. The second was with just treatment of argon laser, The third was treated by scaling and root planning and the fourth was treated with both scailing and root planning and argon laser. The level of periocheck test, the index of bleeding, and the depth of periodontal pocket were evaluated from for 128 teeth of 64 anterior teeth and 64 posterior teeth. The results were as follows ; 1. In the score of periocheck test, root planing group(group 3) was significantly reduced more than the group without treatment(group 1) and the argon laser treatment(group 2) for results of 3 days and 7 days. But root planing plus argon laser treatment(group 4) in the 7days after experiment, was significantly reduced than no treatment(group 1) and root planing treatment(group 3)(P<0.05), in the 3 days after experiment, was significantly reduced than root planing(group3)(P<0.05). The score of periocheck test to the root planning group(group 3) were significantly reduced between days1, day3 and day7(P<0.05). Root planning plus argon laser group(group 4) were significantly reduced to 1 or 7days and 3 or 7days(P<0.05). The argon laser group(group 2) didn't show any changes. 2. In the case of sulcus bleeding index, the root planning group(group 3) and root planning plus argon laser group(group 4) were reduced more than without treatment group(group 1)(P<0.05) and sulcus bleeding index in the root planning group(group 3) were reduced more than the argon laser group(group 2)(P<0.05). 3. There wasn't any changes of pocket depth between the control and the experiment group as with experiment periods also.

목적: 이 논문의 목적은 발광 다이오드(Light Emitting Diode(LED))의 유무에 따른 전동칫솔의 항치태 및 항치은염 효과를 치은염 및 경도의 치주염 환자에서 관찰하는 것이었다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 30명의 환자를 실험군, 대조군으로 각각 15명씩 나누어 실험을 진행하였다. 실험군은 정상 작동의 LED 전동칫솔을 사용하였고 대조군은 LED가 나오지 않도록 개조된 동일 제품의 전동칫솔을 사용하였다. 기준(Baseline), 2주, 4주 후의 임상지표($L{\ddot{o}}e-Silness$ gingival index (GI), Quigley-Hein plaque index (PI))를 측정하여 Wilcoxon signed rank test, Mann-Whitney test를 통해 통계적 분석을 시행하였다. 결과: 실험군과 대조군 간의 시간에 따른 GI의 변화는 두 군 모두 시간에 따른 감소를 나타내었으나, 2주, 4주차에서 유의한 차이를 나타내었다. PI는 4주차에서 실험군에서 대조군보다 낮은 수치를 나타내었는데, 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 아니었다. 결론: 본 연구에서 LED가 장착된 전동 칫솔은 단기간의 연구에서 치은염의 감소효과를 보였고, 장기간의 관찰 시 치태의 축적을 감소시킬 수 있다 추측할 수 있었다.
