Abstract

Objectives One aspect of undesirable outcomes in orthodontic treatment includes excessive resorption of dental roots with mechanotherapy. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between treatment duration, adult and adolescent, gender, extraction and non-extraction root resorption after orthodontic treatment. Methods The subjects consisted of 140 orthodontic patients(adult : 70, adolescent : 70) who treated by standard edgewise technique at the three orthodontic hospital and clinic in seoul. Pre-treatment and post-treatment periapical radiographs were examined. The amount of root resorption was assessed for six anterior teeth according to criteria modified from Lupi et al root resorption score. Results Treatment duration was 24.7 months in the adult group and 33.5 months in the adolescents group. Between adult and adolescents group were significantly difference of mean of root resorption score(p<0.05). Female group and extraction group usually had higher prevalence of root resorption, but were not significant differences between the each groups(p>0.05). Conclusions When viewing these results, a lot of root resorption in adult patients appears, especially the maxillary central incisor, lateral incisor root resorption during orthodontic treatment occurs, so be careful and do more research to be done is suggested.

이에 본 연구에서는 치근흡수의 경향을 평가하기 위하여 교정치료 기간, 성인과 청소년, 성별, 발치와 비발치 등으로 분류 하였으며, 서울 경기 소재의 3개 교정 전문치과 병의원에서 140명을 교정치료 6개월 전과 교정치료 완료 후 6개월 이내에 촬영된 치근단 방사선 사진에서 상 하악 6전치의 치근흡수를 치아별로 평가 비교하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 교정치료 기간에서 성인군은 24.7개월이고 청소년군은 33.5개월로 성인군과 청소년군 간에는 유의한 차이가 있었다(p<0.05). 2. 성인 환자는 청소년 환자에 비해 치근 흡수도에 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<0.05). 3. 여자 환자에서 전반적으로 높은 치근 흡수도를 보였으나 유의한 차이가 없었다(p>0.05). 4. 발치가 비발치 환자보다 높은 치근 흡수도를 보였으나 유의한 차이가 없었다(p>0.05). 5. 상악 중절치와 측절치에서는 발치군이 비발치군에 비해 통계적으로 높은 치근 흡수도가 나타났다(<0.05). 이상의 결과로 볼 때, 성인 환자에서 치근 흡수가 많이 나타나고, 특히 상악 중절치, 측절치에서 치근흡수가 나타나므로 교정 치료시 주의가 필요하며 더 많은 연구가 이뤄져야 할 것으로 사료된다.
