Introduction : The experiments was undertaken to evaluate the effects of herbal medicine, Sibjeondaebotang, Yugmijihwangtang, in pregnant rats and fetuses. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were orally administered with the Sibjeondaebotang, Yugmijihwangtang at dose of 5mg/kg/day for 20 days. Pregnant rats were sacrificed at 20th day of gestation, and observed internal and reproductive organs. Approximately live fetuses in the 20th day of gestation were randomly selected and fixed in 95% ethanol. To observe skeletal malformations, fetuses were stained with alcian blue and alizarin red S. Effect on pregnant rats : Maternal body weight of Sibjeondaebotang, Yugmijihwangtang treated group has a tendency to increase compared to that of control group. There were no significant difference in internal and reproductive organs. There were no significant changes between two groups in blood chemistry and hematological values. There were no significant changes in number of corpus luteum, implantation, live fetuses and implantation rate, delivery rate, and sex ratio. But Yugmijihwangtang administered group showed higher early resorption rate than the control group(p<0.05). Also Sibjeondaebotang administered group showed higher late resorption rate than the control group(p<0.05). From the sex ratio, number of females, bigger than number of males in the control group, and more males than females in Yugmijihwangtang administered group(p<0.05).

Purpose : This study is to predict the changes of the distal segment by investing the resorption of the excessive distal segment regarding the amount of setback after BSSRO. Material and Methods : 20 patients with Mandible prognathism treated by Obwegeser-Dal Pont method during the years 2000 to 2002 were selected for this study. Group A consisted of 5 males & 5 females with a setback amount of 10mm and above(Mean $10.80mm{\pm}1.03$, n=20) and Group B consisted of 2 males & 8 females with a setback amount of below 10mm.(Mean $6.10mm{\pm}1.10$, n=20) Panorama X-ray was taken at day 1, 1month, 3months, 6months, and 12months after the surgery. Resorption areas of excessive distal segment were measured on these panorama X-rays and compared. Results : There was bone resorption in both groups. Group A showed more bone resorption than Group B. Group B showed slightly higher resorption rate than Group A. However, there was no statistically significant difference between the resorption rates of Group A and Group B. (P>0.05). Conclusion : More bone resorption occurred with a larger amount of setback and about one third of the excessive distal segment underwent resorption, irrespective of the amount of setback.

Introduction. In this study, we applied the immediate loading to implant using temporary prosthesis, and compared the treatment results by each placement site, amongst pre-loading period. The study was intended to search for occurrence of complications and the amount of marginal bone resorption. Materials and Methods. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 99 cases of implants from 29 patients who were treated at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital from September 2003 to September 2008. We grouped all the cases by placement arches and pre-loading periods, and subdivided each group by placement site(anterior/posterior), type of prosthesis(full-mouth cross splinting/Partial multiple splinting, Single). Results. In the cases of anterior maxilla, the average amounts of marginal bone resorption showed $1.71{\pm}0.71mm$ in group 1, and $1.44{\pm}0.69mm$ in group 2, which means they revealed no statistically significant difference between group 1 and group 2(p=0.646). In the cases of posterior maxilla, the average amounts of marginal bone resorption showed $1.25{\pm}0.72mm$ in group 1, and $1.14{\pm}1.15mm$ in group 2, which means they were not statistically significant. In the cases of anterior mandible, there was no cases classified as group 4, but the average amounts of marginal bone resorption in group 3 showed $1.38{\pm}0.79mm$. In the cases of posterior mandible, Group 3 showed $1.39{\pm}0.64mm$, and group 4 showed $1.84{\pm}1.19mm$ as amounts of marginal bone resorption, which means they revealed no statistically significant difference between group 3 and group 4(P=0.210). The survival rate of group1 was 97.14%, 92.1% of group3, and 100% of group 2 and group4. According to each type of prosthesis, each average amount of marginal bone resorption revealed no statistically significant difference in maxi11a(p=0.575) in mandible(p=0.206). Conclusion. It is concluded that the marginal bone resorption and the rate of complications might not be affected by placement sites and pre-loading periods. The marginal bone resorption and the rate of complications might vary as different bone quality of placement site and implant system, diameter, length, etc. It is suggested that the proper placement of immediate loading implants decreases the whole treatment period and any inconvenience occurred to patients.

Purpose: Mandible resection and discontinuity defect created lead to aesthetic and functional problems. The iliac crest bone graft exhibits relative ease for bone harvesting, possibility of two team approach, ability to close the wound primarily, large amount of corticocancellous bone and relatively few complications. Whereas the use of free vascularized flaps has donor site morbidity and worse-fitting bone contour, the use of nonvascularized iliac bone graft has advantages in the operation time and patients' recovery time. So, nonvascularized iliac bone graft could be an attractive option. Methods: Twenty-one patients (M:F=1:1.1) underwent iliac crest bone harvesting for reconstruction of mandibular discontinuity defect (mean length : $61.6{\pm}17.8$ mm), from May 2005 to October 2011 at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery in Kyungpook National University. The average age was $44.1{\pm}16.4$ years and the mean follow up periods was $28.2{\pm}22.7$ months. Bone resorption rate, according to age, sex, primary lesion, location and distance of defect, type of fixation plate, time of graft and pre-operative radiation therapy, were measured in each patient. Results: The mean bone resorption rate was $16.1{\pm}9.0%$. Bone resorption rate was significantly increased in mandibular defect that is over 6 cm in size (P=0.015, P<0.05) and the cases treated pre-operative radiation therapy (P=0.017, P<0.05). All was successfully fixed and maintained for the long-term follow-up. There were a few donor site complications and almost all patients were shown favorable outcome without severe bone resorption in this study. Conclusion: The nonvascularized iliac bone graft seems to be a reasonably reliable treatment option for reconstruction of mandibular discontinuity defects.

This study was undertaken to investigate the effects of Gyoaesamultang in pregnant rats and their fetuses. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were orally administered with the Gyoaesamultang at dose of 5mg/kg/day for 20 days. Pregnant rats were sacrificed at 20th day of gestation, and observed internal and reproductive organs. Approximately, live fetuses in the 20th day of gestation were randomly selected and fixed in 95% ethanol. To observe skeletal malformations, fetuses were stained with alcian blue and alizarin red S. Maternal body weight of Gyoaesamultang treated group has a tendency to increase compared to that of control group. There were no significant difference in internal and reproductive organs. There were no significant changes between two groups in blood chemistry and hematological values. There were no significant changes in number of corpus luteum, implantation, live fetuses and implantation rate, delivery rate, late resorption rate and sex ratio. But Gyoaesamultang administered group showed lower early resorption rate than the control group. Neonatal body weight and number of fetus of Gyoaesamultang group were increased to that of control group. The fetuses of dams treated with Gyoaesamultang didn't showed external malformation. Vertebral and sternal variations were observed in Gyoaesamultang group but, compared to the control, those variations were insignificant. The number of ribs, cervical, thoracic, and lumber were normal. The number of sacral and caudal vertebrae were increased. Fetuses treated with Gyoaesamultang showed significant difference in the number of caudal vertebra(P<0.01). From these results, it can be concluded that Gyoaesamultang showed no toxicity effects on maternal body weight, early resorption rate, and number of live fetuses. There were no significant changes in organ weight, hematological data, reproductive organs. Although skeletal variations were showed in vertebrate and sternum, Gyoaesamultang were shown insignificant changes in bone malformation.

Introduction: This study examined the cumulative resorption of implants placed in a severely atrophic mandible and analyzed the radiologic bone resorption in the marginal bone, after an autogenous bone graft including both block and particulates that had been harvested from the ramus and iliac crest. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study was performed on patients who had bone grafts for augmentation followed by implant installation in the mandible area from 2003 to 2008. Twelve patients (6 men and 6 women) who received 34 implants in the augmented sites were evaluated. Cumulative radiologic resorption around the implants was measured immediately, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after implant installation surgery. Results: The installed implant in grafted bone showed 0.84 mm marginal bone resorption after 3 months and 50% total cumulative resorption after 1 year. The mean marginal bone resorption around the implant installed in the grafted bone was 0.44 mm after 3 months, 0.52 mm after 1 year, after which it stabilized. The implant survival rate was 97% (failed implant was 1/34). Marginal bone resorption of the installed implant in the autogenous onlay block bone grafts was 0.98 mm after 3 months, which was significantly higher than that of a particulated bone graft (0.74 mm) (P <0.05). Conclusion: An autogenous graft including block type and particulate type is a predictable procedure for the use of dental implants in a severely atrophic mandible. Implant placement in augmented areas show a relatively high survival and minimal bone loss, as revealed by a radiologic evaluation.

Purpose: The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate the cumulative success rate, the implant survival rate, and the occurrence of biological complications in implants supporting full-arch immediately loaded rehabilitations supported by upright and tilted implants. Methods: The clinical records and periapical radiographs of patients who attended follow-up visits were collected, and information was recorded regarding marginal bone loss resorption, the occurrence of peri-implant infectious diseases, and the implant survival rate. Implants were classified as successful or not successful according to two distinct classifications for implant success. Results: A total of 53 maxillary and mandibular restorations including 212 implants were analysed, of which 56 implants were studied over the full five-year follow-up period. After five years, the cumulative success rate was 76.04% according to the Misch classification and 56.34% according to the Albrektsson classification. The cumulative implant survival rate was 100%, although one implant was found to be affected by peri-implantitis at the second follow-up visit. Conclusions: The cumulative success rate of the implants dropped over time, corresponding to the progression of marginal bone resorption. The prevalence of peri-implantitis was very low, and the implant survival rate was not found to be related to the cumulative success rate.
