Abstract

The junction between resilient denture liner and the denture base is difficult to finish and polish due to difference of the physical property of the materials. Gaps tend to be formed during finishing and polishing procedures. The purpose of this study was measuring the width of junctional gap between $Molloplast-B^{(R)}$ and denture base material after finishing and polishing procedure, and evaluating the effect of method and direction on gap width. $Molloplast-B^{(R)}$ was processed (according to the manufacturer's instruction) against Lucitone $199^{(R)}$ acrylic resin. 50 specimens were fabricated with a raised center section. All of specimens were examined and photographed with a stereoscopic microscope(x120), and the largest gap along the junction of $Molloplast-B^{(R)}$ and acrylic resin on each specimen was measured. One-way analysis of variance(ANOVA) and independent t-test at 95% confidence level were used to analyze the data and to compare groups. The results of this study were as follows. In comparison with finishing tools, the gap width was the largest in $Molloplast^{(R)}$-Cutter and the smallest in FSQ-cross cut bur. There was statistically significant difference between FSQ-cross cut bur and $Molloplast^{(R)}$-Cutter(p<0.05). There was no significant difference in gap width between the direction of polishing. The mean value of gap width was the smallest in case of no polishing, and the largest in case of polishing with pumice & tin oxide. There was statistically significant difference between pumice and pumice & tin oxide. From the results, it is concluded that the use of $Molloplast^{(R)}$-Cutter in clinic need serious consideration even though it has good cutting ability. Further careful study is needed for finishing and polishing methods for decreasing gap width in junction of two materials.

연성 이장재를 의치에 적용했을 때, 의치 변연부에서 나타나는 공극에 의한 문제점을 많이 경험하게 된다. 그래서 변연 공극을 최대한 줄일 수 있는 방법을 연구하여야 하고 특히 최종 과정인 마무리와 연마시의 변연 공극의 양상에 대한 평가가 이루어져야 한다. 본 연구에서는 실리콘 계열의 연성 이장재인 $Molloplast-B^{(R)}$를 적용하였을 때, 의치와 연성 의치 이장재의 접합부에서 나타나는 공극의 양을 측정하고 연마 방법, 연마 방향이 변연 공극에 미치는 영향에 대하여 알아보고자 하였다. 마무리 방법과 연마 방법, 방향에 따라 군 분류를 하였고, 시편의 일관성과 정확성을 위해 금속 틀을 방전 가공하여 제작하였고, 제조사의 지시에 따라 총 50개의 시편을 제작하였다. 공극의 양은 120배 확대의 입체 광학 현미경상에서 가장 큰 값을 가지는 부위를 측정하였고, 모든 측정치는 통계적 분석, 평가 하였다. 실험 결과, 각 분류에 따른 공극을 비교 했을 때, $Molloplast^{(R)}$-Cutter로 마무리 한 후 pumice와 tin oxide를 순행하여 연마를 한 경우가 가장 크게 나타났고, FSQ-cross cut bur를 이용하여 마무리만 한 것이 가장 적게 나타났다. 또한 연마를 할수록 공극의 양이 증가되는 양상을 나타내었다. 방향에 따라서는 통계적 유의성은 나타나지 않았으나 레진에서 연성 이장재 방향으로 시행하였을 때가 더 적은 값을 나타내는 경향을 보였다. 이상의 결과로 보아 삭제력이 우수한 버일수록 레진과 연성 이장재의 접합부에서 나타나는 공극이 커짐을 알 수 있었고, 또한 연마를 시행 할수록 공극의 양이 유의성 있는 차이를 나타내었다. 접합부에서의 공극을 줄일 수 있는 마무리와 연마 방법에 대한 더 많은 연구가 이루어져야 하고 부가적으로 최종 연마가 끝나고 공극을 막아 줄 수 있는 재료에 대한 연구가 필요한 것으로 사료된다.
