Conservative Care of Nonunion Owing to Osteomyelitis Associated with Fracture of Mandible - Report of 3 Cases
Failure to use effective methods of reduction, fixation, and immobilization may lead to nonunion with osteomyelitis , owing to the compound nature of most fractures of the mandible. Nonunion results in fibrous pseudoarthrosis at the fracture site with instability that, once formed, does not improve spontaneously. Once the nonunion with osteomyelitis secondary to fractures has become established, intermaxillary fixation and drainage of infected tissue should be instituted as early as possible, because the fixation &drainage enhances the patient comfort and hinders ingress of microorganisms & debris by movement of bone fragments. The authors treated three cases of nonunion with osteomyelitis by intermaxillary fixation, incision &persistent drainage on the previous fistula site and endodontic drainage of infected teeth in the fracture site of mandible. The localization & sequestration of the infected bone around the fracture was better performed persistently by natural homeostatic mechanism in 8~10 weeks and the bony union was then attained without bone grafting.ope
A PHOTOELASTIC STUDY ON EFFECTS OF BONE REDUCTION FORCEPS ON MANDIBULAR FRACTURE REDUCTION
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the stress patterns within fractured mandibles generated by reduction forceps and to determine the optimal position of the reduction forcep. Twenty-seven mandibular models were fabricated using a photoelastic resin. Each of the three sets of mandible models prepared was
osteotomized according to one of three different fracture types(symphysis, parasymphysis and body fractures).
After reducing the cut segments, a reduction forcep was placed into different engagement holes to compress the segments. Photoelastic stress analysis was used to visualize the stress patterns within the fractured mandiblular models generated by the reduction forcep. In the case of symphysis or parasymphysis fractures, an optimum distribution of stress over the fracture site was achieved when placing the reduction forcep more than 12.5ใon either side of the fracture line between the midway level bisecting the mandible and 5ใbelow the level. In the case of body fractures, optimum stress distribution was achieved when the reduction forcep was placed more than 15ใfrom the fracture line on the midway level. In conclusion, a correct use of reduction forceps helps to provide a precise threedimensional reduction for mandibular fractures.

RECONSTRUCTION OF ALVEOLAR CLEFTS WITH ILIAC CANCELLOUS PARTICULATE OR BLOCK BONE GRAFTS : A COMPARATIVE STUDY
Objective : The objective of this study was to determine which forms of iliac cancellous bone grafts better restore alveolar clefts. Study design : Forty consecutive patients who required a unilateral alveolar cleft graft were studied. Group I (20 patients) had reconstruction with iliac cancellous particulate bone grafts and group II (20 patients) had reconstruction with iliac cancellous block bone grafts. The two groups were evaluated radiographically and clinically. Results : The group with the block bone grafts showed less postoperative problems and better incorporation of the bone graft than the group with the particulate grafts. Conclusion : Surgical reconstruction of alveolar process defects in patients with alveolar cleft using iliac cancellous block bone is a more reliable method than particulate bone grafts both for closing the oronasal fistula and for building interalveolar septal height.ope
A clinical study on the care of odontogenic infections in the admission patients with age-relelated geriatric diseases
This is a reprospective study on the care of odontogenic infections in admission patients with geriatric diseases. The study was based on a series of 480 patients at Dong San Medical Center, Wonju Christian Hospital and Il San Health Insurance Hospital, From Jan. 1, 2000, to Dec. 31, 2002. The Obtained results were as follows: 1. The systemic malignant tumor was the most frequent cause of the geriatric diseases with odontogenic infectious diseases, and refractory lung disease, systemic heart disease, type II diabetes mellitus, cerebrovascular disease, bone and joint disease, senile psychologic disease were next in order of frequency. 2. Male prediction(57.5%) was existed in the odontogenic infectious patients with geriatric diseases. But, there were female prediction in senile psychologic disease, systemic heart disease and cerebrovascular disease. 3. The most common age group of the odontogenic infectious patient with geriatric disease was the sixty decade(47.9%), followed by the seventy and eighty decade in order. 4. In the contents of chief complaints on the odontogenic infectious patients with geriatric disease, peak incidence was occurred as toothache(52.7%), followed by extraction wish, tooth mobility, oral bleeding, oral ulcer, fracture of restoration, gingival swelling in order. 5. In the diagnosis group of odontogenic infectious diseases, periodontitis, pulpitis & periapical abscess were more common. 6. In the treatment group of odontogenic infectious diseases, the most frequent incidence(34.2%) was showed in primary endodontic treatment (pulp extirpation, occlusal reduction and canal opening drainage) and followed by scaling, incision & drainage, only drugs, pulp capping, restoration in order.ope
ISOLATION OF HUMAN ALVEOLAR BONE-DERIVED CELLS AND IN VITRO AMPLIFICATION FOR TISSUE ENGINEERING
Background: Autogenous alveolar bone cell transplantation may be suitable for tissue engineering for alveolar bone reconstruction.
This study aimed to isolate human alveolar bone-derived cells (HABDCs) and to evaluate the ability of collagen gels to support HABDC proliferation and differentiation for human alveolar bone tissue engineering applications.
Method: Cultures of primary HABDCs were established from alveolar bone chips obtained from 10 persons undergoing tooth extraction.
These cells were expanded in vitro until passage 3 and used for the in vitro characterization of HABDCs and the in vitro analysis of collagen gels for alveolar bone tissue engineering.
Results: Of the 10 attempts made to obtain HABDC cultures, eight were successful. HABDCs expressed the osteoblastic phenotype characterized by alkaline phosphatase activity, osteocalcin expression and the mineralization of the extracellular matrix in vitro. When seeded on collagen gels, HABDCs penetrated into the collagen gel matrices and proliferated inside the gels. Significantly, when HABDCs were embedded into the gels, collagen fibers and mineralization were produced within the gels.
Conclusion: This study demonstrates the feasibility of using cultured HABDCs and collagen gels for human alveolar bone tissue engineering applications.ope
BONE FORMATION BY HUMAN ALVEOLAR BONE CELLS
Cultures of primary human alveolar bone-derived cells were established from alveolar bone chips obtained from normal individuals undergoing tooth extraction. These cells were expanded in vitro until passage 3 and used for the in vivo assays. Cells were loaded into transplantation vehicles, and transplanted subcutaneously into immunodeficient mice to study the capacities of human alveolar bone-derived cells to form bone in vivo. Transplants were harvested 12 weeks after transplantation and evaluated histologically. Of 10 human alveolar bone-derived cell transplants, two formed a bone-like tissue that featured osteocytes and mineral. Eight of the ten formed no osseous tissue. These results show that cells from normal human alveolar bone are capable of forming bone-like tissue when transplanted into immunodeficient mice.ope
