The midpalatal suture area and maxillary interdental area are suitable site for the placement of orthodontic mini-implant. The purpose of this study was to provide a guideline to indicate the best location for mini-implant placement as it relates to the thickness of soft tissue and cortical bone. Fifteen maxilla from 15 cadavers were cut in midsagittal plane and buccopalatal plane to measure the thickness of soft tissue and cortical bone of midpalatal and maxillary posterior interdental areas. Sectioned samples were scanned and the thickness was measured. The thickness of soft tissue and cortical bone were measured at 6 points from the interdental papilla with 5-mm intervals in the mid-sagittal section. And, the thickness of soft tissue and cortical bone were also measured at 5 points from the alveolar crest with 1-mm intervals in the buccopalatal section. The mean and standard deviation of the measurement were calculated. Soft tissue thickness at the midpalatal suture area was 1.46 mm at 15 mm from the interdental papilla and remained uniformly thick posterior to this point, and steeply increased at 35 mm area posteriorly. Cortical bone thickness were greatest (2.13 mm) at 20 mm from the interdental papilla and remained uniformly thick posterior to this point, and decreased at 30 mm area posteriorly. Palatal soft tissues thickness in all groups was thinnest at the 1 mm from the alveolar crest and gradually increased from alveolar crest to apical portion. Cortical bone thickness in all groups was thickest at the 1 mm from the alveolar crest and slightly decreased from alveolar crest to apical portion. Buccal soft tissue thickness in all groups was thickest at the 1 mm from the alveolar crest and gradually decreased from alveolar crest to apical portion. Cortical bone thickness in all groups was thinnest at the 1 mm from the alveolar crest and slightly increased from alveolar crest to apical portion. Soft tissue thicknesses were greater on the palatal side than on the buccal side. Cortical bone thicknesses of the buccal side were thicker than the palatal side. These results provide anatomical data of soft tissue and cortical bone thickness to assist in the determination of safe location for the mini-implant placement in the midpalatal and maxillary interdental areas.

6.PERIOTESTa ASSESSMENT OF DENTAL IMPLANT MOBILITY: A CLINCAL STUDY.
The Journal of Korean Academy of Prosthodontics 1998;36(5):758-771
Assessment of implant mobility is an important and reliable method to clinically evaluate implant stability. PerioTest is a precise and reproducible device that cam dynamically measure the reaction of damping characteristics of peri-implant tissue. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of amount of implant surface area, diameter, type, implantation site, degrees of cortical engagement, and length of time in function on PTVs and to find out the most determining factor on PTVs. The results are as follows 1. 5.0mm diameter implants show significantly lower PTV than that of 3.75mm diameter implants. 2. PTV in the mandible is significantly lower than that of the maxilla 3. In the maxilla, there is no significant difference in PTV during the first year of implant function, but during the second year a significant decrease in PTV is noted. 4. In the mandible, there is a significant decrease in PTV during the first and second year of implant function. 5. Implantation site seems to be the most determining factor on PTV among the influencing factors in this study. In conclusion, the amount of implant surface area, type, degrees of cortical engagement had no significant effect on PTV, but installation site and diameter influenced significantly on PTV

Osteoma is defined as a benign neoplasm of bony tissue. Osteomas are divided into two groups: central and peripheral by origin, compact and cancellous by histopathologic findings. Solitary osteoma of jaw bone, not related with Gardner syndrom, is relatively uncommon. We present two cases of huge solitary peripheral osteomas: compact type exophyting osteoma on the inferolingual side of mandibular angle and cancellous type on the residual ridge of posterior maxilla, which is extremely rare.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to provide an actual guideline in determining the shape, diameter, and position of the implant in immediate implantation by the measurement of the thickness of facial and palatal plate, the thickness of cortical bone on the facial and palatal plate, the diameter of the root, and the distance between the roots in the cadavers. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The horizontal sections of 20 maxillae were measured and analyzed to obtain the average values. Resin blocks were produced and cut serially at 1 mm intervals from the cervical line to the root apex. Images of each section were obtained and the following measurements were performed: The thickness of the facial and palatal residual bone at each root surface, the thickness of the facial and palatal cortical bone at the interdental region, the diameter of all roots of each section on the faciopalatal and mesiodistal diameter, and the interroot distance. Three specimens with measurements close to the average values were chosen and 3-dimensional images were reconstructed. RESULTS: The thickness of the facial and palatal cortical bone at the interdental region in the maxilla, the buccal cortical bone was thicker in the posterior region compared to the anterior region. The interroot distance of the alveolar bone thickness between the roots increased from anterior to posterior region and from coronal to apical in the maxilla. CONCLUSION: In this study, the limited results of the morphometric analysis of the alveolar ridge using the sections of maxilla in the cadavers may offer the useful information when planning and selecting optimal implant for immediate implantation in the maxilla.

9.Accuracy of stone cast produced by adjustable dental impression tray.
The Journal of Korean Academy of Prosthodontics 2005;43(4):453-465
PURPOSE: This study was performed to measure the accuracy of adjustable dental impression trays by a scanning laser three-dimensional digitizer. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The metal stock, individual, and adjustable stock trays were used for 60 stone casts(10 casts each) duplicated a resin master model of mandible and maxilla. The type IV dental stone was poured in a vinyl polysiloxane impressions and allowed to set for one hour. The master model and the duplicated casts were digitized using an optical digitizer. The distance between the reference points were measured and analyzed on the graphic image of 3-D graphic software(CATIA version 5.0). The statistical significance of the differences between the groups was determined by a two-way ANOVA. RESULTS: There were no significant differences between the accuracies of the adjustable stock tray and the master model except only anterior arch width on the upper arch and the diagonal arch length and arch length on one side of the lower arch. CONCLUSION: The adjustable stock trays showed clinically acceptable accuracies of the study cast produced by them.
