Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate differences between the morphology of the mandibular symphysis and four facial skeletal types. Materials and Methods: 40 cone-beam computed tomographies were selected and classified in to 4 groups according to their vertical and anterior-posterior skeletal patterns. The bone volume ($mm^3$) of the symphysis, the cross sectional area corresponding to the 4 mandibular incisors' axis: the cross sectional area of total bone ($mm^2$), the area of the cancellous bone ($mm^2$) and the thickness (mm) of labial and lingual alveolar bone at 2 mm, 3 mm under the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ) were measured. General linear model (GLM), Kruskal-Wallis test and Tukey honestly significant difference (HSD) test were subsequently used for statistical analysis. Results: The lingual cortical bone thickness of the lateral incisors at 2, 3 mm under CEJ was greater in the Class I low angle group than the other 3 groups (P < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the volume of the mandibular incisor bony support, cross-sectional area of total bone and cancellous bone at the mandibular incisor' axis. Conclusion: Patients in Class I, low angle group have a thicker lingual mandibular symphysis than Class I, high angle patients.

본 연구는 수평적, 수직적 안면 골격 유형에 따른 하악 전치부 치조골의 형태학적 차이를 알아보기 위하여 시행 하였다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 40명의 Cone-beam computed tomography (Cone-beam CT)를 선별하여, 4개 군으로 분류하였다. Cone-beam CT 자료를 이용하여 하악 전치부 치조골의 부피($mm^3$), 하악 4절치 치축 기준 시상단면의 단면적(총 단면적, 해면골 단면적: $mm^2$), 백악법랑경계(cemento-enamel junction: CEJ) 2 mm, 3 mm 아래 순, 설측 치조골 두께를 측정하였다. 통계분석은 GLM, Kruskal-Wallis test and Tukey HSD를 사용하였다. 결과: 측절치의 백악법랑경계 2 mm, 3 mm 하방 설측 치조골 두께가, Class I low angle군이 나머지 3군 보다 두꺼웠다 (P < 0.05). 하악 전치 치조골의 부피, 전체 치조골 및 해면골의 단면에서의 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었다. 결론: Class I low angle군은 Class II high angle군에 비해 하악 전치 치조골의 설측 부위가 더 두껍다.
