하악 제1대구치 맹출장애의 빈도는 전체 인구의 0.01%로 드물게 나타나며, 발생 원인과 발견 연령 등에 따라 매복, 일차적 만기잔존(primary retention), 이차적 만기잔존(secondary retention) 등으로 분류된다. 치료로는 주기적 관찰, 외과적 노출술, 외과적 노출술 후 교정적 견인술, 탈구를 동반한 교정적 견인술, 외과적 재위치술, 발치 등의 방법을 적용할 수 있다. 이 증례보고는 각각 매복, 일차적 만기잔존, 그리고 이차적 만기잔존으로 진단된 5명의 환자들에서 다양한 치료방법을 이용하여 하악 제1대구치를 성공적으로 교합유도한 증례들을 보여준다. 맹출장애를 갖는 하악 제1대구치는 치아의 평균적인 맹출시기에 임상 및 방사선검사를 통해 매복, 일차적 만기잔존, 그리고 이차적 만기잔존으로 적절하게 진단내려질 수 있으며, 치아의 맹출 정도, 대합치와 인접치와의 관계, 환자의 연령, 협조도, 경제적 상황을 종합적으로 고려하여 치료되어야 한다. With a prevalence rate of 0.01%, the presence of eruption disturbances of mandibular first molar has rarely been in populations. Eruption disturbances of permanent molars have been usually manifested as impaction, primary retention, and secondary retention. The treatments of eruption disturbances are carried out by: periodic observation; surgical exposure; forced eruption after surgical exposure; forced eruption with luxation; surgical repositioning; and extraction. This case report show successfully erupted mandibular first molars by various treatment methods on five patients diagnosed with impaction, primary retention, and secondary retention, respectively. Eruption disturbances of the mandibular first molar can be properly diagnosed with impaction, primary retention, and secondary retention by clinical and radiographic examination at normal eruption time of the mandibular first molar. The treatment should be done synthetically, considering eruption state of affected tooth, the relationship between the affected tooth and the adjacent or opposite tooth, the patient's age, treatment compliance, and economic state.
Among the permanent teeth, the first permanent molars play the greatest role in occlusion and function. So, early diagnosis for congenital missing, abnormal eruption and abnormal formation is very important to the first permanent molars in the course of arch development. The aim of this study is to analyse the differences between right and left first permanent molar's formation and eruption and between upper and lower one. A total of 545 children were selected am ong children who had visited our clinic, investigate eruption and calcification stage of permanent first molar, based on Gleiser and Hunt criteria for this study. 1. Gingival emergence of mandibular first molar is faster than maxillary first molar by 0.75~0.8 years, gingival emergence of maxillary first molar in girls faster than boys by 0.45 years, and that of mandibular first molar in girls faster than boys by 0.5 years. 2. There is the significant difference between right and left first molar on the eruption score and the calcification stage ; 5 year old children show the significant difference on the eruption score. 7 year old children show the significant difference on both the eruption score and calcification stage. 3. It shows the most active eruption movement of crown on the maxilla while the root is rapidly widening its furcation and completing root formation to 2/3, on the other hand, the most active crown emerging on mandible is shown when the root formation completed to 1/4 to 1/2.
Acid Rock Drainage(ARD) is the product formed by the atmospheric(i.e. by water, oxygen and carbon dioxide) oxidation of the relatively common iron-sulphur mineral pyrite(). ARD causes the acidification and heavy metal contamination of water and soil and the reduction of slope stability. In this paper the generation characteristics and the prediction of ARD of various cut slopes were studied. An attempt to classify the rocks into several groups according to their acid generation potentials was made. Acid Base Accounting(ABA) tests, commonly used as a screening tool in ARD predictions, were performed. Fourteen rock samples were classified into PAF(potentially acid forming) group and four rock samples into NAF(non-acid forming) group. The chemical analysis of water samples strongly suggested that ARD with high content of heavy metals and low pH could pollute the ground water and/or stream water.
이 연구는 2008년 1월부터 2012년 12월까지 소아치과에 내원한 7~15세 사이 아동 중, 파노라마방사선사진을 촬영한 3302명을 대상으로 하여 치아결손증의 유병률 및 선천적 결손치의 분포에 대해 분석하기 위함이었다. 치아결손증의 유병률은 남자(5.9%)가 여자(4.7%)보다 약간 높게 나왔으며, 남자에서 평균 선천적 결손치 수는 3.58개, 여자는 2.43개였다. 평균 선천적 결손치 수는 상악보다 하악에서 통계적으로 유의하게 높은 비율을 보였고(p < 0.05), 좌측과 우측치열간의 선천적 결손치 수의 차이는 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다(p > 0.05). 선천적 결손치가 가장 많이 분포하는 부위는 하악 제2소구치였으며 반대로 선천적 결손치가 가장 적게 분포하는 부위는 상 하악 제1대구치, 상악 중절치였다. 치아결손증 환자들에서 선천적 결손치의 악궁 내 대칭성 혹은 악궁 간 대칭성은 80.3%로 높게 나타났다. 이 연구의 결과는 임상의에게 선천적 결손치의 수와 위치에 대한 가치 있는 정보를 제공하여 정확한 진단을 내리고 바람직한 치료계획을 수립하는데 기여할 것이다. The goal of this study was to analyze prevalence and distribution of congenitally missing teeth in 3302 patients from 7 to 15 years old, who had visited and taken panoramic radiographs at the Department of Pediatric Dentistry, from January 2008 to December 2012. The prevalence of hypodontia in the males (5.9%) was slightly higher than in the females (4.7%). In the affected patients, the mean number of congenitally missing teeth in the mandible was statistically higher than in the maxilla (p < 0.05). However, there was no significant difference in the number of congenitally missing teeth between left and right dentitions (p > 0.05). Excluding the Mn. third molars, the most frequent congenitally missing teeth site was the Mn. second premolars. In contrast, the most infrequent congenitally missing teeth sites were the Mx. and Mn. first premolars, and Mx. central incisors. The bilateral combination or antagonistic quadrants combination of congenitally missing teeth in hypodontia patients was 80.3%. The result of this study will contribute to clinicians to make accurate diagnosis and establish favorable treatment plans, by offering invaluable data about the number and distribution of congenitally missing teeth.
9세된 남아가 불안정한 교합을 주소로 내원하였다. 환아의 제1대구치는 치아우식증으로 광범위하게 치관이 파괴되어 환아는 자신의 교두감합위를 찾지 못해 하악을 변위시키면서 교합을 하였고 폐구시마다 동일한 위치로 다물지를 못하였다. 임상검사와 방사선 검사를 통하여 제1대구치에 크라운 수복을 하여 안정적인 교합으로 교합재건을 해주기로 하였다. 치료에 앞서 안정위로 유도하여 환아에게 안정위로 폐구하도록 교육하였고, 근첨형성술(apexification)을 포함한 근관치료와 interocclusal space확보를 위한 치관연장술과 수직고경의 거상을 계획하였다. 근관치료와 치관연장술 후 보철물 제작을 위해 치아를 삭제하고 안정위를 기준으로 수직고경을 증가시켜 임시치관을 제작 및 장착하고 1개월 동안 적응여부를 관찰하였다. 1개월 후 악관절장애등의 증상이 없어 크라운을 제작하였고, 이를 다시 임시장착하고 1개월동안 관찰하여 아무런 증상이나 불편감이 없어 최종접착을 하였다. 크라운을 최종장착한지 4개월 후 검사에서 환아는 안정적인 교합을 형성해가고 있었고, 크라운을 처음 장착했을 때 보였던 전치부 개방교합도 개선되어 정상적인 수평, 수직피개 교합을 보이고 있었다. 【A 9-year old boy visited Department of Pediatric dentistry, Chonbuk National University Hospital due to unstable occlusion. He had permanent 1st molars destructed severely by dental caries and lost vertical stop. He could not occlude in the same position on closing of the jaw since he could not find his centric occlusion. The treatment plan was made, which was oral rehabilitation with crown restorations on permanent 1st molars based on clinical and radiographic examinations and centric relation of the jaw. Treatment plan consisted of endodontic treatment, crown lengthening and restoration of the occlusal vertical dimension (OVD) with gold crown by 3mm-increase of OVD. After endodontic and periodontal treatments, temporary crowns made of acrylic resin were set for assessment of tolerance to an increased OVD. After a month for tolerance, final prosthetics were made and set temporarily. In a month, gold crowns were set finally. Immediately after setting, the patient showed anterior open bite, but at the appointment after 4 months, he showed normal overjet, overbite and stable occlusion.】
<b><i>Objective:</i></b> Infants with a weak immune system are prone to infection with <i>Bacillus cereus</i>, which is commonly found in natural environments. With the aim of achieving better control of this pathogenic bacterium, in the present study we characterized a new bacteriophage, ΦBC01. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Bacteriophage particles were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy. Factors influencing adsorption were identified in a double-layer plaque assay. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was conducted to determine the size of major structural proteins. The complete genome of the phage was analyzed. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Bacteriophage particles (105.3 ± 3.1 nm icosahedral head and 208.8 ± 3.6 nm contractile tail) were identified as Myoviridae. ΦBC01 was found to have host specificity to <i>B. cereus</i>. Major structural proteins of ΦBC01 showed 2 well-pronounced bands of 99 and 56 kDa. The 158,385-bp genome sequence of ΦBC01 was determined: 56 of the 239 open reading frames were annotated, indicating involvement in bacteriophage DNA manipulation, cell lysis, packaging, virion structure, and other functions. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Because of characterization and genotyping of a new bacteriophage from soil samples containing earthworms, this study provides a baseline for the development of alternatives to antibiotics.
The magnetic susceptibility and the contamination level of soil have been showed a strong correlation since magnetic particle and contaminant are genetically related. The magnetic susceptibility, mineralogical composition and heavy metal content of 30 surface soil samples collected from uncontaminated forest, road side in industrial area and abandoned mine area were determined to examine their correlation. The soil samples from industrial and mine areas had a higher magnetic susceptibility and higher contents of heavy metal, magnetite and hematite comparing with the soil samples from uncontaminated forest. There was a strong correlation between the magnetic susceptibility and the content of Fe, Mn, Cr, Ni, Pb and Zn of the soils. They also showed a strong correlation with the content of Fe-oxide and Mn-oxide. The contents of As and Cu revealed a weak correlation with the magnetic susceptibility. However, they showed a strong correlation with the Fe oxide content. The correlation data indicate that the magnetic susceptibility measurement can be used as a screening tool of heavy metal level of soil.
