Objective: The purpose of this study was to quantitatively evaluate the cortical bone densities of the maxillary and mandibular alveolar processes in adults with different vertical facial types using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. Methods: CBCT images (n = 142) of adult patients (20-45 years) were classified into hypodivergent, normodivergent, and hyperdivergent groups on the basis of linear and angular S-N/Go-Me measurements. The cortical bone densities (in Hounsfield units) at maxillary and mandibular interdental sites from the distal aspect of the canine to the mesial aspect of the second molar were measured on the images. Results: On the maxillary buccal side, female subjects in the hyperdivergent group showed significantly decreased bone density, while in the posterior region, male subjects in the hyperdivergent group displayed significantly decreased bone density when compared with corresponding subjects in the other groups (p<0.001). Furthermore, the subjects in the hyperdivergent group had significantly lower bone densities on the mandibular buccal side than hypodivergent subjects. The maxillary palatal bone density did not differ significantly among groups, but female subjects showed significantly denser palatal cortical bone. No significant difference in bone density was found between the palatal and buccal sides in the maxillary premolar region. Overall, the palatal cortical bone was denser anteriorly and buccal cortical bone was denser posteriorly. Conclusion: Adults with the hyperdivergent facial type tend to have less-dense buccal cortical bone in the maxillary and mandibular alveolar processes. Clinicians should be aware of the variability of cortical bone densities at mini-implant placement sites.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of carbonated water on etched or sealed enamel according to the carbonation level and the presence of calcium ions. Methods: Carbonated water with different carbonation levels was manufactured by a soda carbonator. Seventy-five premolar teeth were randomly divided into a control group and 4 experimental groups in accordance with the carbonation level and the presence of calcium ions in the test solutions. After specimen preparation of the Unexposed, Etched, and Sealed enamel subgroups, all the specimens were submerged in each test solution for 15 minutes three times a day during 7 days. Microhardness tests on the Unexposed and Etched enamel subgroups were performed with 10 specimens from each group. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) tests on the Unexposed, Etched, and Sealed enamel subgroups were performed with 5 specimens from each group. Microhardness changes in different groups were statistically compared using paired t-tests, the Wilcoxon signed rank test, and the Kruskal-Wallis test. Results: The microhardness changes were significantly different between the groups (p = 0.000). The microhardness changes in all experimental groups except Group 3 (low-level carbonated water with calcium ions) were significantly greater than those in the Control group. SEM showed that etched areas of the specimen were affected by carbonated water and the magnitude of destruction varied between groups. Adhesive material was partially removed in groups exposed to carbonated water. Conclusions: Carbonated water has negative effects on etched or sealed enamel, resulting in decreased microhardness and removal of the adhesive material.

Objective: This study aimed to explore the usefulness of adjunctive buccal and palatal corticotomy for adult maxillary expansion in an animal model using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods: Twelve adult sheep were randomly divided into two groups (each n = 6): a control group, where no treatment was administered, and a treatment group, where buccal and palatal corticotomy-assisted maxillary expansion was performed. CBCT scans were taken before (T1) and after (T2) treatment. Differences in all transverse dental and alveolar dimensions, alveolar width at crest level, hard palate level, horizontal bone loss, interdental cusp width and inter-root apex were assessed using Wilcoxon signed-rank and Mann-Whitney U-tests. Kruskal-Wallis tests and pairwise comparisons were used to detect the significance of differences among the inter-premolar and inter-molar widths. Results: CBCT data revealed significant changes in all transverse dental and alveolar dimensions. The mean interpremolar alveolar width showed an increase of 2.29 to 3.62 mm at the hard palate level, 3.89 to 4.38 mm at the alveolar crest level, and 9.17 to 10.42 mm at the buccal cusp level. Dental changes in the vertical dimension were not significant. Conclusions: Our findings based on an adult animal model suggest that adjunctive buccal and palatal corticotomy can allow for both skeletal and dental expansion, with the amount of dental expansion exceeding that of skeletal expansion at alveolar crest and hard palate levels by two and three folds, respectively. Therefore, this treatment modality is potential to enhance the outcomes of maxillary expansion in adults.

The purpose of this study is to investigate on the clinical and radiographic patterns of cystogenic ameloblastoma of the jaws. The author studied 64 cases of cystogenic ameloblastoma with regard to age, sex distribution, the site of the lesion and several radiographic features. The results were as follows: 1. The average age was found to be 23.0 years, with a range of 4 to 56 years. The incidence was highest in the second and third decades (72%) and total 64 cases consists of 36 males and 28 females. 2. Fifty-nine cases were found in mandible and 5 cases in maxilla. 3. The specific site distribution was found to be 57.8% ramus, coronoid process and condyle, 34.4% premolar-molar region, and 7.8% were located in mandibular symphysis bilaterally. 4. From the total 64 cases, 28 (44%) were associated with an impacted tooth, especially mandibular second and third molar, 36(52%) failed to show any association with tooth impaction. It was found that the average age for impaction-associated tumors was 19.8 years whereas lesions without impaction occurred at an average age of 25.6 years, which was statistically significant. 5. Fifty-three(82%) cases showed unilocular radiolucencies, eleven (17%) cases showed multilocular radiolucencies. It was found that the average age for unilocular lesions was 22.3 years whereas lesions showing multilocularity occurred at an average age of 26.4 years, which was not statistically significant. 6. Of the 21 patients who had been followed for more than 2 years, only 4 patients treated by enucleation or curettage recurred (19% recurrence).

This paper reports two cases of schwannomas arising from the oral cavity. One is an intraoral ancient schwannoma located at the left cheek, which evolved over a period of 13 years. The tumor was a well-demarcated buccal mass, which was located in the left lower first premolar area, with an obliterated the buccal vestibule, leaving the overlying mucosa intact. The second case was a central intraosseous schwannoma located from the left lower 1st molar periapical area to the left 3rd molar periapical area. Pathologically, the first mass was composed of the spindle shaped tumor cells with wavy nuclei beneath the fibroconnective tissue of the gingiva but second case mass was not. Occasional nuclear pleomorphism was observed but mitosis or necrosis was absent. There were Antoni A and B areas along with strong, diffuse staining with the S-100 protein. Ancient schwannomas were diagnosed. Schwannoma is a slow-growing benign tumor, and an ancient schwannoma that shows cellular atypism is a variant of a schwannoma caused by purely degenerative changes. To date, only limited cases of ancient schwannomas in the oral cavity have been reported.

Statement of problem : Dental implant which has been developed gradually through many experiments and clinical applications is presently used to various dental prosthetic treatments. To conduct a successful function of implant prosthesis in oral cavity for a long time, it is important that not only structure materials must have the biocompatibility, but also the prosthesis must be designed for the stress, which is occurred in occlusion, to scatter adequately of load support. Therefore, it is essential to give the consideration about the stress analysis of supporting tissues for higher successful rates. Purpose : Recently, many implant manufacturing company produce various taper design of root form implant, the fixture is often selected. However, the stress analysis of taper form fixture still requires more studies. Material and method : This study we make the element models that five implant fixture; Branemark system(Nobel Biocare, Gothenberg, Sweden), Camlog system(Altatec, Germany), Astra system(Astra Tech, Sweden), 3i system(Implant Innovations Inc, USA), Avana system(Osstem, Korea) were placed in the area of mandibular first premolar and prosthesis fabricated, which we compared with stress distribution using the three-dimension finite element analysis under two loading condition. Results : This study compares the aspect of stress distribution of each system with the standard of Von mises stress, among many resulted from finite element analysis so that this research gets the following results. 1. In all implant system, oblique loading of maximum Von mises stress of implant, alveolar bone and crown is higher than vertical loading of those. 2. Regardless of loading conditions and type of system, cortical bone which contacts with implant fixture top area has high stress, and cancellous bone has a little stress. under the vertical loading, maximum Von mises stress is more higher in order of Branemark, Camlog, Astra, 3i, Avana. under the horizontal loading, maximum Von mises is more higher in order of Camlog, Branemark, Astra, 3i, Avana.

The purpose of this study was performed to investigate the mineralization and differentiation of osteobalsts for bone regeneration in vitro and the effect of rate of the composition in periodontal cells on mineralization. For this study, healthy gingival tissues were surgically obtained from the patients during 1st premolar extraction for the purposes of orthodontic treament. Gingival tissue was washed several time with Phosphate buffered saline contained high concentration of antibiotics and antifungal agent, and cultured in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium(DMEM, Gibco, U.S.A.). Every cell were cultured in state at $37^{\circ}C$, 100% of humidity, 5% of $CO_2$ incubator. Bone marrow stromal cells were isolated from 5-clay-old rat femur with using medium irrigation mathod by syringe. Cell suspension medium were centrifuged at 1500 rpm for 5 min and then cultured in the petri dish. Two kinds of cell were freezed and stocked in the liquid nitrogen tank until experiment. Cell were incubated into the 24 multi-well plate with $5{\times}10^4$cell/well of medium at $37^{\circ}C$, 100% of humidity 5% $CO_2$ incubator for 24 hours. After discarded of the supernatent of medium, O.5ml of medium were reapplied and incubated. And counted the number of cell using the hemocytometer and inverted light microscope. We have measured the number of mineralized nodule with using Alizarin red S. staining in microscope. Furthermore every cell were observed the morphological change between every rate of co-culture of the two kinds of cell. The results were as follows; The rate of proliferation of co-culture cell revealed high rate tendency compared the bone marrow stromal cell only and low growth rate to compared with gingival fibroblast only. The tendency of formation of the mineralized nodule were observed dose-depend pattern of bone marrow stromal cell. It is concluded that the gingival fibroblast may inhibit the formation of mineralized nodule in the culture of the bone marrow stromal cell.
