초록

연구목적: 최근 지대주 나사에 WC/C 또는 TiN 코팅이 연구되고 있으며, 이들을 금속표면에 코팅 시 마찰계수의 감소와 부식에 대한 저항, 물리적 취약함의 해소 등의 효과를 얻을 수 있으며. 코팅된 지대주 나사에서 마모와 적합도, 풀림력이 향상되었다는 결과들이 보고되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 지대주 나사에 적용된 코팅이 나사 풀림에 미치는 영향을 알아보아 임상적으로 문제가 되고 있는 지대주 나사의 풀림현상을 해소하는데 그 목적이 있다. 연구재료 및 방법: 코팅되지 않은 타이타늄 지대주 나사와 (그룹 A) WC/C (그룹 B)와 TiN (그룹 C)으로 코팅된 지대주 나사의 10회 반복 착탈시 풀림력 및 표면의 변화를 비교해본 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 결과: 1. 반복 착탈 전, 그룹 A는 일정한 방향성을 가진 다소 거친 표면이 관찰되었으 나 그룹 B와 그룹 C는 코팅된 입자들이 관찰되었으며 코팅층이 전체적으로 균일하고 매끈한 모양을 나타내었다. 2. 반복 착탈 전, 그룹 B에 비해 그룹 C의 표면에서 코팅 입자의 크기가 더 크고 두껍게 코팅 된 모양을 나타내었다. 3. 반복 착탈 후, 그룹 A와 그룹 B에서는 지대주 나사 표면의 마모와 변형이 관찰 되었으며 그룹 B에서는 코팅 입자의 탈락 현상을 볼 수 있었다. 4. 반복 착탈 전과 후의 지대주 나사 무게의 변화를 측정한 결과 그룹 A가 가장 큰 감소를 보였으며, 그룹 C가 그룹 B 보다 무게의 변화가 적었으나 두 그룹간 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었다. 5. 그룹 B와 그룹 C는 그룹 A에 비해 높은 평균 풀림력을 나타내었고 통계학적으로 유의할 만한 차이가 있었다. 6. 그룹 A에서 그룹B 와 그룹 C보다 평균 풀림력의 감소 경향이 더욱 현저 하게 나타났다. 결론: 결론적으로, WC/C 또는 TiN 코팅된 지대주 나사는 반복적인 사용 후에도 코팅되지 않은 타이타늄 지대주 나사에 비해 뚜렷한 표면 변화를 보이지 않았으며 마모에 대한 저항성이 우수하였고 높은 풀림력을 나타내었다. 따라서 지대주 나사에 WC/C 또는 TiN 코팅을 적용 시 나사 풀림의 문제점을 개선할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Statement of problem: Recently researches about WC/C (Tungsten Carbide/Carbon) or TiN (Titanium Nitride) coating on abutment screws are going on. It decreases friction coefficient, resistance against corrosion and withdrawal of physical fragility when the coating is applied to the metal surfaces. It is reported that coated abutment screws improved abrasion, adaptability and detorque force. Purpose: This study is about the effects of coated abutment screws on loosening of screw and for the purpose of solving the loosening phenomenon of abutment screws which is clinical problem. Material and methods: Detorque force and surface changes are compared when 10 times of repeated closing and opening are applied to both uncoated titanium abutment screws (Group A) and coated abutment screws with WC/C (Group B) and TiN (Group C). Each group was made up of 10 abutment screws. Results: 1. Before repeated closing and opening, Somewhat rough surface with regular direction was observed in Group A. Coated granules were observed in group B and group C and overall coated layer appeared in regular and smooth form. 2. Before repeated closing and opening, The coated surface showed bigger and thicker size of coated granules in Group C than Group B. 3. After repeated closing and opening, abrasion and deformation of abutment screw surface was observed in Group A and Group B. Exfoliation phenomenon was observed in Group B. 4. Group A showed biggest range of decrease when the weight changes of abutment screws were measured before and after repeated closing and opening. Group C showed less weight changes than Group B but there was no statistical difference between two groups. 5. Group B and Group C showed higher average detorque force than Group A and there was statistical difference. 6. Group A showed more prominent decrease tendency of average detorque force than Group B and Group C. Conclusion: Coated abutment screws with WC/C or TiN did not show prominent surface changes than uncoated titanium abutment screws even though they were repeatedly used. And they showed excellent resistance against friction and high detorque force. Thus it is considered that adaptation of WC/C or TiN coating on abutment screws will improve the screw loosening problem.
