Recently, straight-wire appliance is widely used with great concern in clinical orthodontic field. The purpose of this study was to collect the information of the straight-wire appliance and to determine the crown inclination in clinical orthodontics. The author analyzed the study model of 78 individuals with normal occlusion. The obtained results were as follows. 1. Mean, maximum value, minimum value and standard deviation of crown inclination of upper and lower teeth were obtained. 2. The lingual crown inclination of upper tooth had constant value from first premolar through second molar, the lingual crown inclination of lower tooth progressively increased from canine through second molar. 3. As Howes' ratio was decreased, the crown inclination of upper incisors was increased. 4. Narrowing the upper arch, the crown inclination of upper incisors was increased.

The gag reflex is a physiologic reaction which safeguards the airway from foreign bodies. But, an exaggerated gag reflex can be a severe limitation to a patient's ability to accept dental care and for a clinician's ability to provide it. The overactive gag reflex can be due to psychological factors or physiological factors, or both. Psychological factors can include fear of loss of control and past traumatic experiences. A 58-year-old man, scheduled for extraction of left upper second molar, left lower second and third molar and implantation of left upper second molar, and left lower second molar had no specific underlying medical problems. He had exaggerated gag reflex. Dental treatment was successfully performed using intravenous sedation. Intravenous sedation with midazolam and propofol was a useful management technique for reflex control during dental treatment extended to the posterior regions in the oral cavity.

We report the treatment of an adult Class II malocclusion with severe crowding and a hopeless lower second molar. According to the treatment plan, 4 premolars and 4 third molars were to be extracted for 2-jaw surgery. To replace the hopeless lower second molar, one upper third molar was successfully autotransplanted during the pre-surgical orthodontic treatment. Multiple teeth are frequently extracted for treatment purposes in adult surgical cases. Under precise diagnosis, the reuse of extracted teeth to replace missing teeth can be a successful alternative even in adult surgical patients.

The first permanent molar takes important place in the occlusion. Malposition of the lower first molar is frequently due to mesial migration, which is occurred by early exfoliation of the second deciduous molar or proximal caries of deciduous teeth. Above things happen without any consideration of space maintainer, prompt measures for space regaining have to be started. Especially in the case with early loss of the second deciduous molar, it has been said that there is no suitable appliance for maintaining the space before the eruption of the permanent first molar. In distalizing the upper first molar, headgears have been routinely used, which its result was definitely depended on cooperation of the patients. Nowadays, appliances such as pendulum appliances, K-loop, magnets, which can be used without cooperation of the patients, are introduced. Jones Jig, one of the molar distalizing appliances, was used on the patients who visited department of pediatric dentistry in Seoul National University Dental Hospital complaining of no eruption space for the lower second bicuspid. Either removable splint or lingal arch was used as the anchorage. Jones Jig was favorably used in the lower molar, where vestibule is shallow, and this is a case report on the satisfactory result thereof.

This study was designed to development of stock tray for Korean. The subjects for this study were 374 persons(male : 204, female : 170) with age $19{\sim}28$. The study models were made with irreversible hydrocolloid impression material and conventional stock tray, Individual trays were made on the study model and the master models were made after impression with polysulfide rubber impression material. Each of the master models measured 12 measuring points on the maxillary model and 13 measuring points on the mandibular model with digital sliding caliper. The values were analyzed statistically by SAS analysis. The measuring points were analysed and were consulted for the development of new stock tray for Korean. Maxillary models were divided into four groups acceding to the width between buccal alveolar ridges below the contact point of first molar and second molar. The size of new tray of the upper first group was 82mm (width), 60mm(length). That of the upper second group was 77mm (width), 59mm (length). That of the upper third group was 72mm (width), 58mm (length). And that of the upper fourth group was 67mm (width), 57mm (length). Mandibular models were devided into three group according to the width between lingual alveolar ridges below the second molar. The size of new tray on lower first group was 40mm (width), 55mm (length). That of the lower second group was 36mm (width), 55mm (length). And that of the third group was 32mm (width), 55mm (length). The author tested the fitness of newly designed stock tray in 52 subjects with normal occlusion and obtained good results that the problems of conventional stock tray were worked out.

In Class II amalgam restoration in deciduous molar, failure rate and incidence of recurrent caries are high as children become older. In order to preserve deciduous molars till the physiologic exfoliation time, stainless steel crown is a choice of the treatment. As a result of a careless treatment, such as overhanging margin, poor marginal adaptation, poor proximal contour and inadequate mesiodistal width give rise to interfering eruption of the adjacent teeth, recurrent caries and chronic gingival irritation and insufficient arch length respectively. In this study, 252 s.s. crowned teeth extracted due to physiologic exfoliation or periapical lesion. The purpose of this study is to analyze the marginal adaptation of stainless steel crown to the deciduous molar in order to obtain better clinical result. The results were as follows : 1. Between the length of s.s. crown and the marginal gap of crown, positive correlations were shown. 2. Largest amount of marginal gap was shown at buccal side in upper deciduous molars and lower first deciduous molar, lingual side in lower second deciduous molar. But no significant diffrence were found statistically compared to second most largest one. 3. Incidence of exposed restoration and recurrent caries were higher in proximal surface than buccal/lingual surface. And extension of restoration below the margin of s.s. crown gives rise to higher rate of recurrent caries. 4. Defect of contour was found in 34%, frequently found in lower 1st deciduous molar and upper 1st deciduous molar. 5. Marginal polishing defects were found in 23%. 6. Ledge was formed in 10% especially in lower 1st deciduous molar and lower 2nd deciduous molar. 7. 16% of the teeth had wear facet due to traumatic occlusion, 7% of them had occlusal perforation.

유치에서는 영구치에 비해 법랑질의 두께가 얇고 약하며 상대적으로 큰 치수강으로 인하여 단시간에 치아우식증이 치수까지 이환되며, 외상 또는 치과치료 중 갑작스런 움직임으로 인하여 치수가 노출되는 경우가 빈번하다. 이러한 이유로 어린이에서의 치수처치는 필수적이며, 유치에서 치수치료의 목적은 감염된 치수조직을 제거하여 동통을 완화시키는 것 이외에도 크게는 치열궁을 보존하여 저작기능을 보호하고, 미래의 영구치열이 적절한 교합관계를 이루게 하는데 있다. 유치열에서 성공적인 치수치료를 위해서는 유치 치수의 형태, 유치 근관의 해부학적 형태, 치근형성, 그리고 유치 치근의 흡수와 관련된 특별한 문제점들에 대한 이해를 필요로 한다. 상악 대구치와 마찬가지로 상악 유구치의 근심 치근이 형태에 있어서 가장 큰 변이를 보인다고 알려져 있으며, 이 치근 내에 존재하는 모든 근관을 처치하지 못한다면 결국 치수치료는 실패할 것이다. 본 증례는 근관치료 중이거나 후에 지속적인 동통이나 근관 내 출혈이 지속되는 경우에서 상악 유구치의 근심협측치근의 제 2근심협측근관을 발견하고 처치한 후 임상증상 및 동통이 사라지고, 양호한 예후를 보였다. 또한 발거된 상악 유구치를 대상으로 한 조사 결과 상악 제 1유구치는 35개 증 8개(22.8%), 상악 제 2유구치는 33개 중 22개(66.6%)의 치아에서 제 2근심협측근관이 발견되었으며. 이는 상악 유구치의 근심협측치근 내에 두 개의 근관이 존재할 가능성이 높다는 것을 의미한다.

To study the eruption pattern of the mandibular first permanent molar, the author took 263 cases of Oblique Cephalogram from age 3 to 6 years old children and observed the vertical and mesiodistal directional change and tooth axis change. The following results were obtained.; 1. The eruption pattern of the mandibular first permanenl molar was changed at about 60~66 months or calcification stage IX. 2. At the early stage, the path of eruption of the mandibular first permanent molar directed upward and forward and after calcification stage IX it changed to the direction of upward. 3. The height of the alveolar bone of the upper part of the mandibular first permanent molar was almost equal to that of the interseptal bone of the first and second deciduous molar, but the height showed gradual descent afterwards. 4. At the early stage, the distance from the distal end of the mandibular second deciduous molar to the anterior portion of the ascending ramus was 1.2~1.4 times larger than the mesio-distal diameter of the mandibular first permanent molar, but at the later stage it was enlarged 1.7~1.9 times larger than the mesiodistal diameter of the mandibular first permanent molar.

A unhealthy 58-year-old male patient required extraction of left upper second molar due to advanced periodontitis. Lidocaine contained 1 : 100000 epinephrine for left posterior superior alveolar nerve block was administered in the mucobuccal fold above the second molar to be treated at the local private dental clinic. After four hours of posterior superior alveolar block anesthesia, patient feeled double vision and discomfort of eyeball movement. At next day, he complained difficulty of left eyeball movement, vertigo and diplopia. He was referred to our department via local clinic and department of ophthalomology of our hospital. He was treated by medication and eyeball exercise, and then follow up check. The double vision and medial rectus muscle palsy disappeared patially after 2 months of block anesthesia. We described herein an ocular complication of diplopia and inferior rectus muscle palsy after posterior superior alveolar nerve block for extraction of left upper second molar, and review the cause or origin of this case. The autonomic nervous system is presented as the logical basis for the untoward systems of ophthalmologic sign likely to diplopia and inferior rectus muscle palsy, rather then simple circulation of anesthetic solution in the vascular network.

This study was designed to determine the location of the mandibular canal on lower molar areas. Thirty-three patients were examined with multi-planar reformatted CT scan($Dentascan^{(R)}$). Three kinds of measurements were performed. The first was the distances between the upper border of the mandibular canal and the root apices of the first and second molars, the second was the distance between the cortical plate of the mandible and mandibular canal, and the last was the location of the mandibular canal in the buccolingual plane. The obtained results are as follows 1. The distance between the root apices of lower molars and the superior border of mandibular canal was largest at the mesial root of the first molar, and shortest at the distal root of the second molar(p<0.05). 2. The longest distance between the outer surface of the buccal cortical plate of the mandible and mandibular canal was measured from the distal root of the second molar, and this distance decrease gradually mesially(p<0.05). 3. The distance between the mandibular base and inferior border of mandibular canal was longest at the distal root of the second molar, and shortest at the mesial root of the first molar(p<0.05). 4. The location of mandibular canal was lingually positioned in relation to the axis of teeth and alveolar ridge in molar areas.
