Russell-Silver syndrome (RSS) is a congenital disease characterized by short stature due to growth hormone deficiency, physical asymmetry, inverted triangular face, micrognathia, prominent forehead, and hypodontia. This case report presents a prosthetic management of a 6-year-old patient with Russell-Silver syndrome treated with overdentures on the maxilla and the mandible using the remaining primary teeth. Subsequent and comprehensive dental management considering the growth and development of a young patient will be necessary.

Ectopic eruption of the permanent first molar is defined as the eruption of the tooth in an abnormal position or orientation. It may causes distal root resorption and premature exfoliation of the adjacent primary second molar and uncontrolled space loss is followed. Prolonged partial impaction of the permanent molar may also cause undetected caries or abscess formation of the neighbor teeth. The purpose of this paper is to provide a brief review regarding the etiology, classification, and different management techniques for correcting ectopic eruption of permanent first molar.

Pain control by means of local anesthesia is an intrinsic part of clinical practice in dentistry. Several studies evaluated intraligamental anesthesia using a computer-controlled anesthetic device in children. There is a need to provide a clinical guide for the use of computerized intraligamental anesthesia in children. Intraligamental anesthesia using a computer-controlled anesthetic device was found to cause significantly lower pain perception scores and lower pain-related behavior than traditional techniques. This device proven to be effective in restorative and pulp treatment in children; however, its effectiveness in primary teeth extraction is controversial. It is important to withdraw recommendations necessity of future studies concerning the side effects of computerized intraligamental anesthesia in children. The present study aims to review different clinical aspects of computerized intraligamental anesthesia in children along with the side-effects, type of local anesthesia and postoperative pain of this technique. This study provides dentists with a clinical guide for the use of computerized intraligamental anesthesia.

This study was conducted on 85 non-racing pleasure horses raised in Busan race park of Korea Racing Authority to investigate the prevalence of stereotypic behavioral problems in horses. the observation had been continued from March to October of 2010, and the study animals included warm-bloods, Jeju ponies and donkeys. Although there was no temperament problem detected, a wide range of well-known stable vices were observed in 15 horses. The most frequently observed stereotype was cribbing (8.2%), and it was followed by weaving (1.2%), biting (1.2%), eating too fast (1.2%), pawing (1.2%) and scraping the teeth on something (1.2%) with the equal prevalence rate. These behavioral disorders were only detected in warm-bloods, while those were absent in Jeju ponies and donkeys. In addition, primary behavioral disorders were more dominant than mimicking behaviors.

The teeth and gingivae of 20 children with asthma aged up to 6 years who had been taking syrup medicines regularly for at least six months were compared with those of a control group of 79 children of similar ages. Dental disease was assessed by measuring dental plaque(plaque index) and gingivitis(gingival index). The results of this study show that long-term administration of syrup medicine ketotifen sweetened with glucose increase the plaque index and gingival index in children who had primary dentition. But there was no significant difference between the two groups. By increasing the intake duration of syrup, both indices were increased.

It is a feature of primary importance for a backing material for circular saw blades having teeth which are tipped with cermet, that the steel has not a too high hardenability in order that the backing material shall not be completely hardened through brazing, welding or grinding, etc. in connection with the finishing operation in the manufacturing of circular saw blade. It is believed that V-(2Mo+W) added steel from this point of view had best conditions. Using V-(2Mo+W) added backing steel, the tool failure can be effectively prevented due to superior damping performance.

The purpose of this study were to investigate the chief complain and dental treatment needs in handicapped patient. This study examines treatment records of 1025 patients in free dental clinic for handicapped patients during 10 years from 1999 to 2008. The results were as follows : 5.8 average visit per patient; mean patient age was 25; 544 patients was younger than 20. Handicapped patients classified according to types of disability. Crippled disorder were 19.1%, brain disorder were 4.5%, visual disorder were 3.1%, auditory disorder were 4.1%, speech disorder were 0.9%, mental retardation were 67.1%, and developmental disorder were 25.1%. Performed treatments were 322 scaling, 13 fluoride varnish, 727 preventive resin restoration, 1296 resin restoration, 600 amalgam restoration, 46 GI restoration, 612 extraction, 289 pulp treatment of primary teeth, 75 pulp treatment of permanent teeth and 138 stainless steel crown restoration. Many handicapped patients have some difficulty to dental treatment. They have limited access to dental care, which is compounded by a shortage of skilled dental professionals who are willing to treat these population and financial problems.

1. Periphelal odontoma는 매우 드문 질환으로 확진을 위해서는 생검이 필수적이다. 2. Peripheral odontoma는 치은의 종창을 동반하며 서서히 성장하는 임상적 특징을 가진다. 3. 골내 치아종과 마찬가지로 peripheral odontoma의 치료로는 완전한 외과적 절제가 추천되고 예후 또한 양호하다.

복합레진을 이용한 수복은 재료의 낮은 강도와 중합수축으로 인한 변연 누출 그리고 상아질과의 결합력 등으로 인해 제한된 범위에서만 사용되었으나, 최근 물성의 향상 및 상아질 결합제의 발달로 심미수복이 필요한 여러 부위에 이용되고 있다. 반직접법을 이용한 레진 인레이는 와동의 크기가 너무 크거나 직접 수복이 곤란한 경우 사용될 수 있으며, 어린 환자의 영구구치 수복시 적절한 비용으로 가급적 오랫동안 보철치료를 받지 않고 사용할 수 있도록 한다. 반직접법의 장점으로는 중합수축으로 인한 변연누출이 적고, 2차 중합을 통해 중합도가 증가하여 강도가 증가되며, 간접법시 필요한 기공실 과정이 불필요하여 1회의 내원으로 치료 가능하다는 것 등이 있다. 본 증례는 심미적 치료를 원하는 환자의 구치부 수복시 반직접법을 이용한 레진 인레이를 사용하여 양호한 치료결과를 얻었기에 이를 보고하는 바이다.

PURPOSE. Bone density at implant placement site is a key factor to obtain the primary stability of the fixture, which, in turn, is a prognostic factor for osseointegration and long-term success of an implant supported rehabilitation. Recently, an implant motor with a bone density measurement probe has been introduced. The aim of the present study was to test the objectiveness of the bone densities registered by the implant motor regardless of the operator performing them. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A total of 3704 bone density measurements, performed by means of the implant motor, were registered by 39 operators at different implant sites during routine activity. Bone density measurements were grouped according to their distribution across the jaws. Specifically, four different areas were distinguished: a pre-antral (between teeth from first right maxillary premolar to first left maxillary premolar) and a sub-antral (more distally) zone in the maxilla, and an interforaminal (between and including teeth from first left mandibular premolar to first right mandibular premolar) and a retroforaminal (more distally) zone in the lower one. A statistical comparison was performed to check the inter-operators variability of the collected data. RESULTS. The device produced consistent and operator-independent bone density values at each tooth position, showing a reliable bone-density measurement. CONCLUSION. The implant motor demonstrated to be a helpful tool to properly plan implant placement and loading irrespective of the operator using it.
