Abstract

Purpose: As the esthetic demands of dental implant patients are increased, the demands of zirconia as implant abutment material are also increased. It has non-metalic color, good biocompatibility, high strength and high toughness. Even thought the advatage of zirconia abutment, there are a few studies about mechanical properties of zirconia abutment. This study evaluated the mecanical strength with compressive bending strength and endurance limit of implant-zirconia abutment assembly. Materials and Methods: Static and cyclic loading of implant-Zirconia abutment assembly were simulated under worst case condition according to ISO. Test groups were implants of external butt joint with straight regular diameter and angled regular diameter zirconia abutment, implant of external butt joint with narrow straight diameter zirconia abutment and implant of internal conical joint with straight narrow diameter zirconia abutment. All test group were evaluated the mecanical strength with compressive bending strength and endurance limit. After fatique testing, fracture surface were examined by SEM. Results: The compressive bending strengths exceed 927N. Regular diameter zirconia abutment were stronger than narrow diameter zirconia abutment(P<.05). The endurance limits ranged from 503N to 868N. Conclusion: Within the limitation of this study, zirconia implant abutment exceeded the estabilished values for maximum incisal biting forces reported in the literature.

목적: 임플란트 보철 수복에서 심미적 요구도가 증진되면서 최근에는 고강도, 고인성을 지니면서 생체적합성 우수하고 치아의 색과 조화로운 지르코니아 지대주의 사용이 증가하는 추세이다. 몇몇 임상보고를 통해 지르코니아 지대주의 우수한 주위조직 반응과 단기간의 성공적인 결과가 보고 되었으나, 장기간의 안정성을 평가하는 기계적 강도에 관한 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 직경, 각도, 연결방식이 상이한 임플란트 고정체 - 지르코니아 지대주의 단순 파절강도와 반복하중에 의한 피로한계 측정을 통해 지르코니아 지대주의 기계적 안정성을 평가해 보고자 하였다. 재료와 방법: ISO규정에 따라 지르코니아 지대주-고정체를 변연골이 3mm 흡수된 조건에서 $30^{\circ}$경사하중으로 압축굽힘강도를 측정하고, 그 값의 80%를 최대하중으로 10%를 최소하중으로 하여 10Hz의 sine형 반복하중을 $5{\times}10^6$ 주기를 초과하는 조건의 내구성한계를 측정하였다. 지르코니아 지대주로는 regular diameter를 가지면서 external butt joint의 straight 지대주와 $17^{\circ}$ angled 지대주, 그리고 narrow diameter 이면서 external butt joint의 straight 지대주와 internal conical joint의 straight 지대주를 사용하였다. 압축굽힘강도 값을 일원분산분석과 사후검정으로 검증하였으며, 피로파절면을 전자주사현미경을 통해 관찰했다. 결과: 압축굽힘강도는 최소 927N 이상으로, 직경의 차이에 따른 유의한 차이를 보였으며( P<.05), 내구성 한계는 503N에서 868N까지의 번위를 보였다. 결론: 지르코니아 지대주는 구강내 기능하중을 견딜수 있는 적절한 기계적 강도를 가지는 것으로 판단된다.
