Endosseous implants have been used to provide anchorage control in orthodontic treatment without the need for special patient cooperation. However these implants have limitation like space requirement, cost, equipments. Recently titanium micro-implant for orthodontic anchorage was introduced. Micro-implants are small enough to place in any area of the alveolar bone, easy to implant and remove, and inexpensive. In addition, orthodontic force application can begin almost immediately after implantation. The mandibular first, maxillary first, mandibula second, and maxillary second molars were the four most commonly missing teeth in adult sample. In case of posterior molar teeth missing, deflective contacts in any position, over time, has produced pathologic change of occlusal scheme because of extrusion of opposing teeth. This case had interocclusal space deficiency by mandibular right molars missing over time. The micro-implants had been used for intrusion of maxillary right molars for interocclusal space. The micro-implant would be absolute anchorage for orthodontic movement. Therefore, the micro-implant would be effective method for correction of occlusal plane.

This clinical report describes an orthodontic-prosthodontic interdisciplinary treatment for a patient with multiple missing teeth and unilateral scissors bite. A 47-year-old female presented with multiple missing posterior teeth, anterior large overjet, deep bite, and posterior scissors bite on the right premolar area. Periodontal therapy was performed and followed by orthodontic treatment. The maxillary anterior teeth were initially aligned, then two implants were placed for the left mandibular molars to increase occlusal vertical dimension. The scissors bite between the right maxillary and mandibular premolars were corrected using the miniscrews as an anchorage. Other implants were placed for the right maxillary and mandibular molars after the occlusal planes and occlusal relationship were harmonized. The patient adapted well to altered vertical dimension without any specific problems including peri-implant marginal bone loss. Interdisciplinary approach resolve the complex orthodontic-prosthodontic problems and concluded in successful results.

구치 결손 부위가 장기간 방치될 경우 후방 구치의 근심이동과 대합치 정출 등의 원치 않는 치아이동, 치조골의 소실, 치아치조 교합의 붕괴를 야기할 수 있다. 따라서 치아상실 후 가능한 빠른 시일 내에 결손 부위에 대한 보철 수복 치료를 권장하고 있지만, 제3대구치 등 잔존 치아를 결손 부위의 적절한 위치로 이동시키는 교정치료를 병행할 경우 최적의 크기와 형태로 보철 수복이 가능하고, 기능교합 시 힘의 분산을 고르게 할 수 있으며, 수복의 범위를 최소화하여 생역학적으로 보다 유리한 치주 환경을 조성할 수 있다. 본 증례는 다수의 구치부 치아를 상실한 두 환자를 비교하여 구치부 치아 결손 환자에서 제3대구치의 교정적 활용시 고려할 사항에 대해 고찰하고자 한다.

Controversies exist regarding the need for prophylactic extraction of mandibular third molars in patients who plan to undergo orthognathic surgery. An 18-year-old male patient was diagnosed with mandibular prognathism and maxillary retrognathism with mild facial asymmetry. He had a severely damaged mandibular first molar and a horizontally impacted third molar. After extraction of the first molar, the second molar was protracted into the first molar space, and the third molar erupted into the posterior line of occlusion. The orthognathic surgery involved clockwise rotation of the maxillomandibular complex as well as angle shaving and chin border trimming. Patients who are missing or have damaged mandibular molars should be monitored for eruption of third molars to replace the missing posterior tooth regardless of the timing of orthognathic surgery.

Moving the mandibular posterior teeth into a severely atrophic edentulous space is a challenge. A carefully designed force-and-moment system that results in bodily protraction of the posterior teeth with balanced bone resorption and apposition is needed in such cases. This report describes the treatment of a 19-year-old woman with missing mandibular first molars due to juvenile periodontitis. Miniscrews were used as absolute anchorage during protraction of the mandibular second and third molars. Bodily mesial movement of the mandibular second and third molars was achieved over a distance of 11 to 17 mm after 39 months of orthodontic treatment.

This study investigates the effects of third molar on the occlusal plane in Angle's class El malocclusion with possibilities of posterior crowding and the interrelationships of occlusal plane inclinations to other skeletal patterns. Above investigations might showed that considerations should be given to third molars with possibilities of posterior crowding in establishing diagnosis and treatment plans for Angle's class III malocclusion patients. The following conclusions were obtained 1. In events of third molars causing possible posterior crowding, maxillary third molars showed more mesial inclinations than second molars, and compared to those with third molar missing cases, first molars were more mesially inclined and displaced more inferiorly from the palatal plane and OP-MP was increase , thus the occlusal plane was less steep. 2. In events of third molars causing possible posterior crowding, the anglulation between AB line and mandibular plane was decreased and ANB showed negative values. Thus chin points were more protruded, ramus were more anteriorly displaced, and increase in lower facial height, genial angle, effective mandibular length and mandibular plane angle were observed. This in all caused more vertical opening and more severe skeletal disturbance. 3. OP-MP was increased as the maxillary first molars were more inferiorly displaced from the palatal plane. As this angle was increased mandibular planes were more inferiorly inclined and LFH, genial angle, effective mandibular length were more increased and mandibular ramus was more anteriorly placed. 4. As the maxillary first molars were more inferiorly placed from the palatal plane, more increased OP-MP/PP-MP ratio made the occlusal plane less steep. As OP-MP/PP-MP was increased, mandibular ramus was more anteriorly placed and made longer, and facial angle and effective mandibular length were increased.

치주질환이나 우식으로 인해 구치부 치아가 상실된 환자들은 잔존하고 있는 전치부 및 소구치부 치아로 안정된 교합고경을 유지하기 어렵다. 구치의 상실로 대합치의 정출이나 인접치의 경사가 발생되는 경우 교합평면이 붕괴되거나 부적절한 교합간섭을 야기하게 된다. 만약 치아 상실 상태가 지속된 경우에는 하악의 전방이동으로 인해 상악 전치의 동요와 순측 이개를 초래하게 되며 치주질환이 동반된 경우에는 더욱 심각한 상황으로 변화한다. 이와 같이 치아의 병적 이동이 일어난 환자의 치료는 보존 및 치주치료, 교정 치료를 통한 재배열, 그리고 상실된 치아의 보철수복을 통한 교합 고경의 재설정 및 유지와 같은 다과간 협력 진료가 매우 중요하다.

This case report demonstrates correction of functional occlusion in a patient with unilateral cleft lip and palate, achieved through nonsurgical orthodontic treatment. An 18-year-old male with unilateral cleft lip and palate presented with posterior occlusion collapse, attributed to the lateral collapse of the right maxillary arch, severe lingual inclination of mandibular molars, and multiple missing teeth. With the usage of fixed orthodontic appliances and mini-implant anchors, functional posterior occlusion, proper anterior overjet, and improved soft tissue profile was achieved. This case exemplifies the impact of specialized orthodontic care in enhancing both function and aesthetics for patients with congenital oral conditions.

Electoromyographic studies were performed on the action of the muscles of the temporomandibular joints following exfoliation of the deciduous teeth. The subjects examined, being 50 children. between the age of 6 and 13 years, divided into 5 groups. They were; 1) Deciduous dentition were complete in the first group. 2) Deciduous incisors were missing in either upper or lower jaw in the second group. 3) Deciduous canine and molars were missing in the left side of either upper or lower jaw in the third group. 4) Deciduous canine and molars were missing in the right side of either upper or lower jaw in the fourth group. 5) Permanent dentition completed in the fifth group(except third molars). Electromyogram was recorded with 4 channel polygraph (Grass model VII modified for 7P3). Electrodes which were the cup-typed gold discs, 9 millimeters in the diameter, were located on the anterior, middle and posterior lobes of the temporal muscles, and also on the superficial and deep layers of the masseter muscles. Paired electrodes were held by electrode cream so that they were pressed on the skin surface at right angle, adhesive tape being used to anchor them. The distance of the pair electrodes was about 5 millimeters. The results obtained were as follow: 1) In rest position of mandible; All groups showed slight, electrical activities in the muscles involved, but in the middle lobe of temporal muscle they were slightly higher. 2) In molar occlusion of mandible; High activity-anterior lobe of temporal muscle and superficial layer of masseter muscle. Moderate activity-deep layer of masseter muscle. Low activity-middle and posterior lobes of masseter muscle. There were no differences among the first, the second and the fifth groups. In the third group the muscle activity was weaker than that of the right, and in the fourth group opposite characteristics was revealed. 3) In incisal bite of mandreble; Hight activity-superficial layer of masseter muscle. Modertae activity-deep layer of masseter muscle. Low activity-anterior, middle and posterior lobes of temporal muscle. The first, the third, the fourth and the fifth groups showed no differences but the second group showed less activity than those of others. 4) In protrusion of mandible; High activity-deep layer of masseter muscle Moderate activity-superficial layer of masseter muscle. Low activity-anterior, middle and posterior lobes of temporal muscle. In the first, the fourth and the fifth groups, there were no differences in the activities, but the second group showed less activity than the others. 5) In retrusion of mandible; High activity-deep layer of masseter muscle. Moderate activity-superficial layer of masseter muscle. Low activity-anterior, middle and posterior lobes of temporal muscle. In the first, the third, the fourth and the fifth groups, there were no differences but the second group showed less activity than the others. 6) In lateral excursion of the mandible (either direction); High activity-posterior lobe of temporal muscle. Moderate activity-anterior and middle lobes of temporal muscle. Low activity-superficial and deep layers of masseter muscle. The muscle action potentials were weaker than those of the right side in the third group and vice ver'sa in the fourth group. 7) In chewing movement; Temporal muscle activities were higher than those of masseter, especially in the middle lobe of temporal muscle the activity was highest. Right side muscle activities were higher than those of the left in the third group and, on the contrary, the left side was dominant over the right in the fourth group.
