Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of exposure of hydroxyapatite coating on the amount of bone formation and stability in the dogs. Methods: In this study, hydroxyapatite coated implants (HAPTITE) was placed over the femur bone surface of four dogs about 1 mm. The experimental group was divided into 4 weeks group of 8 implants and 8 weeks group of 8 implants, and then they were sacrificed. The stability of implants was evaluated twice with Osstell$^{TM}$ mentor (Osstell AB, Goteborg, Sweden) at right after placement and sacrifice. The amount of bone formation was evaluated through histomorphometric examination. Results: The stability of implants was in normal range, and tended to increase as time goes by. Mean percentages of new bone formation rates were $90.5{\pm}6.6$ at uppermost 1 mm bone level adjacent to soft tissues (level 1) and $92.9{\pm}4.1$ at next 1 mm bone level (level 2) in 4 weeks group, $90.1{\pm}11.5$ at level 1 and $95.9{\pm}2.3$ at level 2 in 8 weeks group. Mean percentages of bone-implant contact rates were $85.1{\pm}10.8$ at level 1 and $88.1{\pm}13.8$ at level 2 in 4 weeks group, $88.5{\pm}14.4$ at level 1 and $95.3{\pm}3.1$ at level 2 in 8 weeks group. There was no statistically significant difference of new bone formation rate and bone-implant contact rate between uppermost 1 mm bone level adjacent to soft tissues and next 1 mm bone level. However, there was no significant difference in bone formation between 4 and 8 weeks groups. Conclusion: These results suggested that exposed hydroxyapatite coated implants to soft tissue showed favorable bone formation and implant stability.

During the previous several decades the osseointegrated implants have been considered as the most ideal therapy for the fully edentulous or partially edentulous patients. Although the research on the biocompatibility of osseointegration, the oral tactile function, and the histo-neurologic study had been performed, the change of the oral tactile sensibility and maximal occlusal force according to the postinsertion time of implant prostheses has not been studied. The purpose of this study was to compare the oral tactile sensibility and maximal occlusal force of implant pros-theses to natural teeth according to the specific postinsertion time intervals. The fifty seven patients treated with $Br{\aa}nemark$ implants during the recent seven years were involved in this study. The oral tactile sensibility and maximal occlusal force were measured according to the postinsertion time (${\leqq}6\;months,\;{\leqq}12\;{\leqq}\;18\;months\;{\leqq}\;24\;months,\;and\;{\geqq}20\;months$) 1. The passive tactile threshold of implants was higher than 6-7 times when comparing to natural teeth(P<0.05) 2. The absolute pressure threshold in horizontal and vertical direction for the passive tactile sensibility had decreased significantly in the post insertion time 13-18 months group and had increased significantly in the post insertion time over 25 months group (P<0.05) 3. 50% limit thickness and 100% absolute thickness for the active tactile sensibility had decreased significantly in the postinsertion time 7-12 months group ($AT_{50}:P<0.005,\;AT_{100}:P<0.05$) 4. The maximal occlusal force of the implants prostheses had decreased when comparing with natural teeth in the postinsertion time 1-6 months group(P<0.05) and after that there was no significant difference between the implant prostheses and natural teeth(P<0.05) 5. Maximal occlusal force according to the postinsertion time had increased significantly in the 13-18 months group (P<0.05) after that there was no significant difference. 6. There was positive correlation between age and oral tactile sensibility tested in horizontal and vertical direction ($P_{H:r}=0.39,\;P_{v:r}=0.41$) and there was no correlation between age and maximal occlusal force, age and active tactile sensibility 7. According to the results or the questionnaire, 76.6% of the patients were satisfied with the function and 96.7% of the patients were satisfied with the sensibility. In conclusion oral tactile sensibility and maximal occlusal force of implants have changed with the postinsertion time. Oral tactile function of implants was lower than that of the natural teeth, but for the maximal occlusal force there was no difference between implants and natural teeth.

연구 목적: 본 연구는 서로 다른 세가지 블라스팅 처리를 한 티타늄 디스크에$Nd:YVO_4$ 레이저 조사 조건을 달리한 후 조사하여 티타늄의 표면 거칠기 및 표면 변화를 관찰하기 위함이다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 디스크 형태의 상용 순수 티타늄 시편을 30개 준비하여 시료 표면을 각각 10개씩 $ZrO_2$ (zirconium dioxide), $Al_2O_3$ (aluminium oxide), RBM (resorbable blasted media)으로 블라스팅(blasting)하고 초음파 세척하였다. $Nd:YVO_4$ 레이저(Laser Pro D-20, Laserval $Korea^{(R)}$, Seoul, South Korea)에서 주사속도(100, 300, 500 mm/s)와 시간당 진동량(반복률) (5, 15, 35 kHz)을 다르게 하여 9가지 조건을 설정하였다. 레이저 조사 후 주사전자현미경, X-선 회절 분석 및 에너지 분산X선 분광분석, 표면 거칠기 분석을 통해 각 시편을 평가하고 분석하였다. 결과: 주사전자현미경의 결과 레이저 조사를 시행하지 않은 티타늄 표면은 방향성이 없는 불규칙한 형상을 보였고 레이저 조사를 처리한 시편은 특징적인 형태가 관찰되었다. X-선회절분석결과$ZrO_2$, RBM 의 고유피크는 관찰되지 않았으나 $Al_2O_3$분사한 군에서는 알루미나의 고유 피크가 관찰되었다. 에너지 분산X선 분광분석을 통해 관찰한 티타늄의 산화도 경향성과 표면 거칠기는 유사하였다. 표면 거칠기는 주사속도와 반복률에 따른 차이를 보였다(P<.05). 결론: 레이저 조사 조건에 따라 티타늄 디스크의 미세구조와 표면 거칠기가 변화되었다. 레이저 조사는 골유착을 증진시키기 위한 임플란트 표면을 변화시키는 방법중의 하나로 여길 수 있을 것이다.
