A 4-year-old girl, who showed velopharyngeal (VP) incompetence associated with bilateral striatal necrosis, received speech therapy with a palatal lift prosthesis (PLP). CDVP function was improved three months after insertion of the PLP, normal articulation and an increase in speech intelligibility were obtained. RImproved velopharyngeal efficiency was maintained, and the PLP was removed two years and five months later. RAfter practice at setting the normal tongue position at rest to improve oral dysfunctions of speech, chewing, swallowing, and tongue movement, she recognized that she was able to close her lips and produce normal speech.

The recovering process of the anemia following 400ml blood donation in healthy female volunteers was studied hematologically. The advanced erythropoietic ability was observed from the first day following the phlebotomy. On the 14th day, the rates of reticulocyte and the mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration normalized and the serum erythropoietin level indicated a maximum in spite of the decreases of serum iron and ferritin.There were no obvious side effects following a 400ml phlebotomy for healthy females. It was suggested that the 2 weeks after the 400m1 autologous blood donation would be a suitable period for orthognathic surgery.

The purpose of this study was to clinicaly evaluate the efficacy of an antianxiety Etizolam (Depas®) on temporomandibular joint disorders. The subjects were 33 patients (10 males and 23 females, average 34 years 5 months) with myogeneous complaints. Etizolam was administered in a daily dose of 1.5 mg (0.5 mg × 3 times), and all subjects didn't take any other treatment for 2 weeks.1. The efficacy rate of all subjects was 76%.2. As a result of analysing efficacy according to chief complaints, the efficacy rate was a high 100% for a group suffering from stiff neck and shoulder, 92% and for a group with opening pain at the TMJ.3. As a result of analysing improvements of each sign and symptom, the efficacy rate was a high 92 % for headache, a high 88%, 81%, and 80% respectively, for tenderness of the temporal muscle, masseter muscle, and sternocleidomastoid muscle, and a high 84% for mouth opening pain.Statistically significant differences (p<0.01) were found in the above signs and symptom between before and after treatment.4. The efficacy rates of joint sound and trismus were a low 43% and 40%, because some cases of joint sound and trismus were caused by the internal derangement of the TMJ, and generally, internal derangement of the TMJ doesn't respond to drug treatment.5. Side effects were observed in 3 cases, such as slight sleepiness.6. It is suggested that Etizolam is a usefull drug for treatment of temporomandibular joint disorders, except in cases of chronic internal derangement of the TMJ

Classification of facial images was done using the eigen-faces method, which is based on a method known as the principal component analysis.The average face images of 30 young females aged from 18 to 19 years were prepared, and individual face images were classified into 30 eigen-faces. Then 30 cropped faces of each subject were reconstructed using some of the 30 eigen-faces and the average face. The reconstructed facial images were evaluated as to whether or not they were similar to original facial images by 19 observers.As a result, estimation scores by observers correlated linearly with the number of eigen-faces. It was considered that the individual face was identified to the cropped face with at least 7 eigen-faces. Furthermore, subjects were classified into 5 groups by cluster analysis with eigen-faces.

To clarify the awareness and subjective symptoms of the disorder in preoperative ankyloglossia, patients were evaluated using a questionnaire survey. The following results were obtained.1. Disorders in swallowing and mastication were recognized in about 33.3% of the moderate cases. Oral functional disorders were checked in about 83.4% of the moderate cases, which was significantly frequent compared with the slight cases.2. Speech disorders were observed most frequently as subjective symptoms, and uptake disorders were observed in some cases.

The purpose of this study was to clarify the relationship between shapes of the epiglottis and risk of aspiration. The subjects consisted of ten normal volunteers and sixty-eight stroke patients with dysphagia. Using videofluorographic images, shapes of the epiglottis were divided into three groups, straight, curved, and closed type. The appearance ratio of types of epiglottis shape in normal volunteers was not significantly different from those in dysphasic patients. The risk of aspiration was significantly different from the types of epiglottis shape, which was the highest in the patients of curved epiglottis and lowest in those of straight-type epiglottis.The results revealed that the shape of the epiglottis is useful to predict the risk of aspiration.

This article describes the incidence of mineralization in the stylohyoid ligament complex (SLC) in a sample of the patient population of the Meikai University School of Dentistry. The age of the patients ranged from 3 to 89 years, and a total of 800 orthopantomographs of the patients were analyzed. There was a sharp increase in mineralization during the first three decades of life, from 38% in the first decade to 90.5% in the third. No relationship could be established between the extent of mineralization and increasing patient age thereafter. The SLC could be detected in 93.8% of the adult patients who were over 20 years of age. The results suggest that orthopantomography is one of the best methods to observe the SLC. A classification of the radiographic appearance of the SLC based on three types of complexes -type A: normal type B: elongated and type C: very elongated- is proposed. According to the classification, among adult patients, type A represented 73.9% type B 18.7% and type C 1.2%. Among all patients, the incidence of elongated SLC was 19.9%. This classification is easy and useful to diagnose an elongated SLC clinically.

In this report we presented a case of emphysema of the parotid gland induced by abnormal habit.The patient was a 45-year-old man. In Sept. 1983, he noticed painless swelling of the left cheek. In Feb. 1985, concerned about the swelling which had continued to grow at times, he visited a clinic of an otorhinolaryngologist. However he received no cure because no swelling was found at that time. On Dec. 3, 1986, when he was admitted to a hospital for a physical examination, the swelling of the same region was pointed out by the doctor. And on Dec. 12, he was referred to our university clinic.In the clinical examination, a diffuse swelling of the left cheek was observed. W hen we pressed the bilateral parotid gland regions, we felt as if we had pressed a mass of flour. And foamy saliva was ejected from the parotid papilla with air. CT scan and sialogram revealed air in the bilateral parotid glands and ducts.Clinical diagnosis of emphysema of the bilateral parotid glands was made. This emphysema was considered to be induced by the abnormal habit that he had puffed out his cheeks strongly with his breath many times since he was 11 years old.

Historically, arsenic trioxide (AT) was commonly used in endodontic treatment because it acts quickly and devitalizes the pulp within two days. However, it is cytotoxic to gingiva and bone. If it diffuses out of the cavity it can readily cause widespread necrosis of gingiva and bone, which can lead to osteomyelitis of the jaws. This article presents two cases of osteonecrosis of the jaws caused by leakage of AT. Case 1: A 74-yearold male was referred to our department complaining of pain of the left maxilla following extraction of his first maxilla molar on the left side by a private practitioner three months earlier. Case 2: A 39-year-old female was referred to our department complaining of impairment of sensation in the left lower lip following root treatment of her second mandibular molar on the left side by a private practitioner. AT preparation had been used in both these cases two months earlier. We performed sequestrectomy under local anesthesia in these cases.

Long-term corticosteroid administration induces secondary adrenal insufficiency and an increased susceptibility to infection. Surgical intervention in patients receiving steroid medication should be performed with consideration to preventing adrenal crisis, delayed wound healing, and infection. To securely manage tooth extraction in patients receiving steroid medication, 50 patients taking predonisolone (PSL) were retrospectively investigated. The mean dosage of PSL in the patients was 14.2mg/day, and the mean duration of the treatment was 7 years and 3 months. Forty-nine of the 50 patients were treated under local anesthesia, and the number of teeth concurrently removed was from 1 to 4. Preoperative supplemental steroid administration was applied to only two patients: one treated under general anesthesia, and the other during a period of reducing steroid dosage. Penicillin was commonly selected as the antibiotic to prevent infection, and it was administered preoperatively and postoperatively, for a mean duration of 4.1 days. As complications, infection occurred in 2 cases, and dry socket and discomfort in 1 case for each, in whom PSL had been taken for more than 12 years. These results suggested that removal of teeth in patients taking steroid medication can be securely performed without supplemental steroid by using effective administration of antibiotics.
