Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of grooved abutments on abutment screw loosening. Materials and methods: This study was conducted to evaluate the abutment screw loosening after 6 months for 50 patients (51 implants) treated at the department of Prosthodontics in Yonsei University Dental Hospital from March, 2015 to July, 2015. A control group with non-grooved abutment consists of 30 implants, and an experimental group with grooved abutment consists of 21 implants. Astra, Straumann, Implantium, Osstem system were used in the study. The abutments with loose screws cases after a period of 6 months has been investigated, with two kinds of measurements: 1) measuring the additional rotational angle on abutment during placement with the same force, 2) measuring the PTV on bucco-cervical area of implant crown. All data collected has been analyzed by normality test followed by Mann-Whitney test using SPSS program. Results: No complications were reported after 6 months for the 51 implants. Abutment screw loose and crown fracture have not been seen in the study groups. The data collected from the two measurements showed no significant differences between the two groups with P-value 0.576 (average= control group: $7.35^{\circ}$, experimental group: $4.75^{\circ}$) for the additional rotational angle measurement and with P-value 0.767 for PTV. Conclusion: There are no significant differences between the grooved and non-grooved abutment in screw stability. However, further studies with long-term followups and larger group of patients is needed in order to investigate the effects of grooved abutment on screw stability.

목적: 본 연구의 목적은 grooved abutment가 지대주 나사풀림 현상에 미치는 영향을 확인하는 것이다. 재료 및 방법: 2015년 3월부터 7월까지 연세대학교 치과대학병원 보철과에 내원한 50명, 51개 임플란트에 대해서 임플란트 보철 장착 후 6개월 점검 시 지대주 연결나사의 안정성을 평가하였다. 대조군은 groove가 없는 지대주를 사용한 30개 임플란트이었고, 실험군은 groove가 있는 지대주를 사용한 21개 임플란트이었으며, Astra, Straumann, Implantium, Osstem 시스템이 사용되었다. 6개월 점검 시에 지대주 연결나사의 풀림여부를 조사하였고, 동일한 힘으로 재체결 시 지대주 연결나사의 추가 회전각을 측정하였으며, 보철물 협측하방 부위에서 PTV를 측정하였다. SPSS 프로그램을 이용하여 정규성 분석 후 Mann-Whitney 분석을 시행하였다. 결과: 51개 임플란트에 대해 보철 장착 후 6개월 점검을 시행한 바, 나사 풀림이나 보철물 파절 등의 특이할 만한 합병증은 나타나지 않았다. 6개월 후 지대주 연결나사의 추가회전각은, 실험군 평균은 $4.75^{\circ}$이었고 대조군 평균은 $7.35^{\circ}$이었으며, 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었다 (P = .576). PTV에서도 유의한 차이는 없었다 (P = .767). 결론: 지대주의 groove 여부가 지대주 연결나사의 안정성에 미치는 영향은 유의한 차이가 없으나, 이에 대해 좀더 장기적이고 다수의 증례를 이용한 추가적인 연구가 필요해 보인다.
