The most important part of everyday root canal treatment is diagnosis about the morphology of tooth, root and root canal. Usually this procedure is performed by visual examination and radiographic (panoramic/periapical) examination. However, 2-dimentional radiography has several limitations such as imposition of anatomic structures including buccal/lingual root canals and distortion of images. Recently, owing to the increased interest in dental implant and affordable cost of CBCT equipment, CBCT has been introduced widely in local dental clinics. CBCT is characterized by their lower radiation dose and shorter exposure time than conventional CT scan, and ability of 3-dimentional reconstruction of the dento-alveolar structure. Also in endodontic field, the data from CBCT could be very helpful in diagnosing complex root canal anatomy, apical periodontitis, cause of failure and in determining treatment plan. However, there are some limitations such as radiation dose and artifact. Therefore, clinicians should know about indication, advantages and limitations of CBCT, and properly use it for successful root canal treatment to save the natural teeth.

연구 목적: 저작 및 하악 운동시 발생되는 치아접촉은 치열의 보존, 하악의 안정과 보철 수복과정에 있어서 중요하다. 이에 한국인의 20-30대 성인을 대상으로 최대교두감합위에서의 치아접촉점의 위치 및 교합유도양상과 교합유도치의 분포를 분석하여 알아보고자 한다. 연구 대상 및 방법: 29명의 성인을 대상으로 하악의 최대교두감합위에서의 치아접촉점의 위치와 분포 및 전방운동시 교합접촉양상을 shimstock foil (Whaledent, Langenau, Germany), T-Scan III (Tekscan Inc., Boston, MA, USA), polyvinylsiloxane registration material (Genie Bite, Sultan Healthcare, Hackensack, NJ, USA)을 이용하여 측정하였다. 측정시 자세는 직립위로 Frankfurt horizontal plane과 지면이 수평이 되도록 앉게 하였으며 접촉이 재현될 때까지 수 차례 반복한 후 3회씩 측정하였다. 최대교두감합위에서 세가지 방법 간의 통계적 유의성을 비교하기 Fisher's Exact Test (R-General Public License, ver. 2.14.1)를 이용하였고, 전방 운동시 Pearson's Test를 통해 통계 검증하였다(${\alpha}=.05$). 결과: 최대교두감합위에서의 치아 접촉 양상을 shimstock foil, T-Scan III, polyvinylsiloxane registration material로 측정시 전치부, 소구치부, 구치부 모두에서 접촉하는 경우가 대부분이었으며, shimstock 사용시 약51%의 최대교두감합위는 전치부 접촉에서 일어났다. Shimstock foil과 T-Scan III를 사용하여 전방운동 측정시 중절치의 접촉이 가장 많이 일어났다. 결론: 최대교두감합위에서 실제 모든 치아의 접촉이 이루어지지 않는 경우가 있었으며 따라서 구치부에서 전치부를 보호해 주고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 전방운동 시 전치부의 치아접촉은 과도한 구치부의 치아접촉을 방지해 전치부가 구치부를 보호해 주고 있었다. 따라서 교합 재구성 시에는 이러한 상호 보호 교합에 대한 고려가 필요하다.

Recently as the interest on Esthetic Dental Prosthesis is arising, the domains of Esthetic Dentistry is being widely investigated. Esthetic Dental Prosthesis is influenced greatly by the shape, color, tooth arrangement of the teeth and the facial features(including the lips). So the degree to which these characters harmonize will be the professional esthetical standard while the satisfaction of the patient will be another esthetical measure. The reason for this is that each and every one of us has a different standard of what is considered beautiful. Of course it doesn't mean that every standard is correct. Then what does Esthetical Prosthesis mean and what should the standard be? This must be defined as a prosthesis that satisfies the basic requirements - margin, contour, occlusion, and at the same time it should restore the shape, color, and tooth arrangement which the client(patient) would love to have. As Esthetic Prosthesis contains its subjective meaning a great deal, it shouldn't be simply distinguished between the beauty of the teeth itself or ugliness. Also in some case, it needs surgical treatment to make it harmonious in the whole aspect so that one may keep the feeling of satisfaction and security. Then what is the shape, color, tooth arrangement that each individual wants? There is an indefinite variety. For example, considering arrangement both regular and irregular is considered beautiful by each different individual. Regular arrangement may be the standard of beauty for some, while irregular arrangement may be thought of as natural looking and beautiful. That is why there must be enough communication with the patient and an agreement be made at the clinic before a diagnostic plan and actual surgery. The treatment plan as mentioned above must be sent to the dental laboratory. In this research, by using case studies, I am going to the importance and appropriateness of the data and information for the dental technician's esthetic prosthesis.

Objectives: This study investigated the removal efficacy and cytotoxicity of a newly developed calcium hydroxide paste (cleaniCal, Maruchi) using N-2-methyl-pyrrolidone (NMP) as a vehicle in comparison with ApexCal (Ivoclar Vivadent) and Calcipex II (Nishika), which use different vehicles such as polyethylene glycol and propylene glycol, respectively. Materials and Methods: Thirty maxillary premolars with oval-shaped canals were divided into 3 groups and the teeth were filled with one of the pastes. After removal of the paste, micro-computed tomographic (${\mu}$-CT) imaging was obtained to assess the volume of residual paste in the root canal of each tooth. The teeth were then split longitudinally and the area of the paste-coated surface was evaluated by stereomicroscopy. The cytotoxicity of each product was assessed using an agar overlay assay. The effect of each vehicle on cell viability was evaluated using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. The data were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance and Tukey's tests to detect any significance (p < 0.05). Results: In the ${\mu}$-CT and stereomicroscopic analysis, cleaniCal exhibited less remnants of medicament than ApexCal and Calcipex. cleaniCal showed a higher cytotoxicity than the other pastes in the agar overlay assay. Furthermore, NMP exhibited lower cell viability compared to the other vehicles. Conclusions: cleaniCal showed better removal efficacy compared to the other products. However, clinicians should be aware of the higher cytotoxicity of the NMP-based material and consider its possible adverse effects on periradicular tissue when it is overfilled.

Objectives. The purpose of this study was to compare the shade changes in wet and dry conditions of natural teeth using two different intra-oral colorimeters. Materials and methods. Twenty volunteer subjects have no restorations and fillings in the maxillary central incisors were involved in this clinical study. The color of tooth was measured by two different instruments that were a Shade $Scan^{TM}$ System and a VITA $Easyshade^{(R)}$, Five times consecutive measurements were done for each subject with both instruments. Groups of measurement are an initial wet condition as control, dry in 5 minutes, 15 seconds after re-wetting with saliva, re-wetting after 5minutes and re-wetting after 30 minutes. Using ShadeScan $System^{TM}$, tooth image was captured and converted to the mapping image of Vitapan 3D master. Three main shades were chosen from each subject and calculated the area in Global Lab Image software. Data were analyzed using paired T-Test and Wilcoxon Signed Ranked Test. Using VITA $Easyshade^{(R)}$, color differences($\Delta$E) between measurements were analyzed with one sample T-test. Results. Using ShadeScan $System^{TM}$, there were significant differences between control group and dry(P=.023), dry and re-wetting 15 seconds, 5 minutes, 30 minutes as well(P=.021, P=.017, P=.030) in comparison of primary shade. However, comparing three main shades, there was no significant difference between control and dry(P=.105). Using VITA $Easyshade^{(R)}$, color differences($\Delta$E) between control and dry, dry and re-wetting 30 minutes were statistically different(P=.002, P=.022). Conclusion. Primary shade could be changed in dry and wetting procedure in time, however there was no significant shade changes in overall.

소아에서 외상, 다발성 치아 우식증, 전신 질환 등에 의한 다수 치아 상실시 저작력 저하, 영양의 불균형, 부정교합, 심미성의 저하등의 문제점이 발생할 수 있다. 이러한 경우 가철성 의치의 장착으로 저작력 회복, 치열 공간 유지, 심미성 증진 및 정확한 발음의 향상을 도모할 수 있다. 그러나 기존의 Wire와 아크릴릭 레진을 이용한 가철성 장치는 낮은 유지력으로 인해 저작력의 회복에 한계가 있고, wire의 노출로 인해 비심미적이다. 또한 구강내 많은 면적을 피개하는 아크릴릭 레진으로 인해 정확한 발음이 어렵고 저작력이 주로 지대치에만 가해지는 문제점이 있다. 그러나 소아에게 주조 금속 가철성 의치를 적용할 경우 유치에서 undercut을 얻기가 어렵고, 무게로 인해 적응하기가 어렵다. 또한 악골의 횡적인 성장에 방해가 될 수 있고 초기 영구치의 삭제가 필요한 경우도 있다. 이러한 단점을 보완할 수 있는 탄성 의치상재가 1950년도에 개발되었다. 의치상과 유지장치가 일체형으로 연조직의 undercut까지 이용 가능하고 재료 자체의 색조와 투명성으로 심미성이 향상되었다. 또한 얇게 제작 가능하기 때문에 발음의 불편함도 줄일 수 있고, 지대치 이외의 조직으로 저작력의 분산이 가능하여 잔존골의 흡수를 지연시키는데 도움을 준다. 본 증례에서는 여러 증례에서 기존의 가철성 의치의 단점을 보완할 수 있는 탄성 가철성 의치를 이용하여 양호한 결과를 얻었기에 보고하는 바이다.

Many dentists have been taken an interest in restoration of severly damaged teeth after endodontic treatment and it is a true that there are lots of studies about it. In these days, although we have used Para-Post, pins, threaded steel post, cast gold post and core, and so on, as a method of restoration frequently, it has been in controversy with the effects of them on the teeth and surrounding periodontal tissue. In this study, we assume that the crown of the upper 1st premolar was severly damaged, and after the root canal therapy, two most common types of restoration were carried out ; 1) coronal-radicular amalgam restoration, 2) after setting up the Para-Post, restore with amalgam core and gold crown. After restoration, in order to present the concentration of stress at internal portion of the tooth and the surrounding periodontal tissue, we doveloped a 2-dimensional finite element model of labiopalatal section, then loaded forces from 2 long perpendicular to the lingual incline of buccal ridge an the middle point, parallel to the long direction axis of tooth at the fossa-were applied. The analyzed results were as follows : 1. Stress of the normal first premolar was concentrated on the most weakest anatomical structure, that is, cervical area, and no stress on the bifurcated area of the canal. 2. Crown restoration after root canal therapy causes large stress concentration on the bifurcated area of the canal. This stress concentration has larger value in case of lateral movement of mandible, and there are decrease in the stress concentration compared with natural tooth. 3. Coronal-radicular amalgam restoration method transports more stress to the tooth structure than restoration using Para-Post. 4. There are more stress concentration around Para-Post in the case of lateral movement, and we have more favo rable result when restored with Para-Post. 5. Generally, stress in the lateral movement is larger than stress in the perpendicular load.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate facial form, arch form and tooth form in young adults to determine if a correlation exists. 115 subjects who had healthy natural maxillary incisors and good occlusion consisted of 71 males and 44 females ranging from 20-30 years of age. Facial photographs and, intraoral photographs of upper anterior teeth and dental casts of upper jaws were taken to demonstrate facial form, dental arch form and tooth form. Form analysis is determined by comparing the ratio of the widths of the faces, dental archs and the teeth. The Chi-square test of independence between facial form, arch form and tooth form, was executed and the significance level determined. The results were as follows : 1. The distribution of facial forms was 66.1% square-tapering, 27.0% square, 5.2% ovoid, 2% tapering-square. 2. The distribution of tooth forms was 65.2% ovoid, 20.0% square-tapering, 11.3 % tapering-square, 3.5 % square. 3. The distribution of arch forms was 50.4 % square-tapering, 48.7 % tapering, 0.9 % reverse tapering-square. 4. There was no large differences in the distribution of facial forms, dental arch forms and tooth-forms between male and female. 5. No relationship existed between the tooth form and the facial form. 6. No relationship existed between the facial form and the dental arch form. 7. No relationship existed between the tooth form and the dental arch form. 8. This gave the impression that dental arch form and facial form could not be used as a true index in tooth selection.
