Abstract

Purpose: This study was designed to investigate the present conditions of illumination techniques in dental laboratories in order to distinguish colors for esthetic dentistry. Materials and Methods: A total of forty-eight local dental laboratories were selected for sampling a) luminous intensity and b) color temperature. We measured the luminous intensity and the color temperature on a center point of porcelain table with lux meter and color meter respectively. The measurements were performed twice, once on a clear day and on a cloudy day between 12 pm and 2 pm (day light and artificial illumination) and between 7 pm and 10 pm (artificial illumination only). Results: The results obtained were as follows. 1. The average luminous intensity in dental laboratories lighting was 1871 lx, and 67% of dental laboratories had luminous intensity greater than 1600 lx, which was appropriate for operations related to colors, while 33% of dental laboratories had in sufficient lighting for appropriate luminous intensity. 2. The average color temperature in dental laboratories lighting was 6506 K, which was inappropriate for operations related to color. None of the dental laboratories had a color temperature range of 5000 - 5500 K, which is appropriate for operations related to colors. 3. Between daytime and nighttime, also between clear day and cloudy day, the average luminous intensity and color temperature in dental laboratories were not significantly different. Conclusion: Illumination in most dental laboratories selected in this study was inappropriate for operations related to color.

목적: 본 연구는 치과 기공실의 조명이 심미 보철을 위한 색조의 분별과 조화, 재현에 적당한지 알아보기 위한 실태 조사이다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 48곳의 치과 기공실을 대상으로 lux meter와 color meter를 이용하여 포세린 작업대(porcelain table) 상판 중심의 조도와 색온도를 측정 하였다. 각각의 기공실을 자연광(day light)과 인공조명(artificial illumination)이 있는 오후 12시 - 2시 사이와 인공조명 만이 있는 오후 7시 - 10시 사이, 2차례 측정하였고, 맑은 날과 흐린 날로 구분하였다. 결과: 1. 전체 기공실의 평균 조도는 1871 lx이었고, 67%의 기공실이 1600 lx를 넘겨 색과 관련한 작업을 하기에 적합한 조도를 갖추었으나 33%의 기공실은 이에 미치지 못하였다. 2. 전체 기공실의 평균 색온도는 6506 K로 색과 관련한 작업을 하기에 부적절하였다. 적정 색온도인 5000 - 5500 K를 만족하는 기공실은 없었다. 3. 전체 기공실의 낮과 밤의 조도(P = 0.73) 및 맑은 날과 흐린 날의 조도(P = 0.89)와 낮과 밤의 색온도(P = 0.17) 및 맑은 날과 흐린 날의 색온도(P = 0.51)는 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 결론: 본 연구에서 조사된 치과 기공실의 조명은 색과 관련한 작업을 하기에 부적절한 경우가 많았다.
