현재 골 유착성 임플랜트는 안전하고 유용한 보철 수복 분야의 하나로 자리잡아 가고있다. 과거 완전 무치악 환자에게 있어서 저작 기능의 회복이란 면에 중점을 두었던 경향에서 현재 골유착 임플랜트의 높은 성공률에 의해 부문 무치악, 단일치 수복에 까지 다양하게 사용되고 있다. 특히 심미성과 인접치의 손상을 가하지 않는다는 면에서 단일치 수복에서 골유착 임플랜트 치료에 관심이 모아지고 있다. 단일치 수복에 있어서 심미성이 중요한 문제로 대두되면서 이런 수복에 사용될 수 있는 다양한 계통의 임플랜트들이 개발되어 사용되고 있다. 이중 가장 기본적인 Branemark 계통의 CeraOne 지대주, 최근에 개발된 전부도재 지대주인 CerAdapt 전부주조 지대주인 UCLA 계통등은 높은 성공률을 보이며 많이 사용되고 있다. 임상가들에 의해 나사유지형 보철물이 착탈성이란 관점에서 선호되고 있다. 시멘트유지형 보철물에서는 나사공이 없는 온전한 교합면을 유지한다는 면과 교합력을 받는 면적에 있어서 더 넓은 면을 가진다는 점등 더 많은 장점을 가진다고 주장하는 사람도 있다. 임상가들의 기호에 의해 선택되어지는 나사 유지형과 시멘트 유지형에 있어서 교합력이 야기하는 하중하에서 각각의 응력 분포를 분석할 필요성이 요구되었다. 이 연구는 단일치 수복에 사용되는 CeraOne, CerAdapt UCLA 계통에서 각각의 나사 유지형과 시멘트유지형에서의 응력분포를 삼차원 유한요소법으로 분석하고 상부 구조물에 가해지는 수직하중, 수평 하중, 경사 하중에 의해 야기되는 응력을 비교 분석한 것이다. 본 연구의 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. CeraOne, CerAdapt, UCLA 지대주 모두 시멘트유지형보다 나사유지형에서 응력집중이 컸다. 2. CeraOne 시멘트유지형인 1번 모델에서 응력분산이 유리하였고, UCLA 나사 유지형인 6번 모델에서 가장 불리하였다. 3. 모든 모델에서 고정체 경부에서 가장 큰 응력 집중이 있었고 이것은 UCLA 지대주에서 가장 컸다. 4. 상부 구조물에서 주된 응력의 집중은 교합면에서 일어났다. 5. 골은 상부 피질골, 즉 고정체경부와 만나는 부위에서 가장 큰 응력의 집중이 일어났으며 수평, 경사 하중시 응력집중 양상은 힘을 가한 쪽의 반대쪽 고정체 경부에 응력이 집중되는 양상을 보였다. 6. 전체 모델과 골, 고정체 모두에서 수평 하중과 경사 하중시 보다는 수직 하중시 더 적은 응력값을 보였다.

Statement of problems: Stress analysis on implant components of the combined screw- and cement-retained implant prosthesis has not investigated yet. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the load distribution characteristics of implant prostheses with the different prosthodontic retention types, such as cement-type, screw-type and combined type by using 3-dimensional finite element analysis. Material and methods: A 3-dimensional finite element model was created in which two SS II implants (Osstem Co. Ltd.) were placed in the areas of the first premolar and the first molar in the mandible, and three-unit fixed partial dentures with four different retention types were fabricated on the two SS II implants. Model 1 was a cement-retained implant restoration made on two cement-retained type abutments (Comocta abutment; Osstem Co. Ltd.), and Model 2 was a screw-retained implant restoration made on the screw-retained type abutments (Octa abutment; Osstem Co. Ltd.). Model 3 was a combined type implant restoration made on the cement-retained type abutment (Comocta abutment) for the first molar and the screw-retained type abutment (Octa abutment) for the first premolar. Lastly, Model 4 was a combined type implant restoration made on the screw-retained type abutment (Octa abutment) for the first molar and the cement-retained type abutment (Comocta abutment) for the first premolar. Average masticatory force was applied on the central fossa in a vertical direction, and on the buccal cusp in a vertical and oblique direction for each model. Von-Mises stress patterns on alveolar bone, implant body, abutment, abutment screw, and prosthetic screw around implant prostheses were evaluated through 3-dimensional finite element analysis. Results: Model 2 showed the lowest von Mises stress. In all models, the von Mises stress distribution of cortical bone, cancellous bone and implant body showed the similar pattern. Regardless of loading conditions and type of abutment system, the stress of bone was concentrated on the cortical bone. The von-Mises stress on abutment, abutment screw, and prosthetic screw showed the lower values for the screw-retained type abutment than for the cement-retained type abutment regardless of the model type. There was little reciprocal effect of the abutment system between the molar and the premolar position. For all models, buccal cusp oblique loading caused the largest stress, followed by buccal cusp vertical loading and center vertical loading. Conclusion: Within the limitation of the FEA study, the combined type implant prosthesis did not demonstrate more stress around implant components than the cement type implant prosthesis. Under the assumption of ideal passive fit, the screw-type implant prosthesis showed the east stress around implant components.

The retaining methods of implant prosthesis were classified into a screw-retained and a cement-retained type. A screw-retained prosthesis has many advantages, such as retrievability, preventing residual cement, while their disadvantages include the possibility of screw loosening and fracture, on the contrary advantages of cement-retained prosthesis are relatively low cost, but they are difficult to retrieve. To combine the advantages of both type, screw-cement retained prosthesis (SCRP) type have been introduced. But they still require ideal implant placement. So we introduce fiber post retained prosthesis without residual cement for preventing soft tissue trouble due to excessive cement.

Implant prostheses were classified into screw-retained prosthesis and cement-retained prosthesis by their method of retaining, and there is screw and cement retained implant prosthesis (SCRP) which has been made reflecting the strengths of these two. The advantages of the SCRP technique are easy retrievability and passive fit of implant prostheses. However, the occlusal screw holes of implant prostheses can be thought as a disadvantage with respect to esthetics and occlusion. Inappropriately positioned implants also limited the use of the SCRP technique. The present study is reporting about the case where nine implants (US II, OSSTEM, Seoul, Korea) were placed in maxilla and eight in mandible respectively in fully edentulous patients. Then, the cement-retained prosthesis was applied for the part in which the screw hole positioned improperly, and screw-retained prosthesis for properly positioned implants so that the combined screw-cement prosthesis has been produced where the satisfying result has shown in both function and esthetics. Three-year follow-up has been done for the patient.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to measure and compare the strain value exerted on the cervical area using different screw tightening protocols in implant-supported, screw-retained 3-unit prostheses. Materials and methods: Strain gauges were attached to four implants: two external and two internal. Thereafter, two study model were designed each type using acrylic resin. CAD-CAM was used to design hex and nonhex abutments for each group (EH, ENH, IH, and INH group) and Screw-cement-retained prostheses were also designed using a nonprecious base metal. Abutment was fixed with 10 Ncm torque, and the prosthesis was cemented. Screws were fixed with 30 Ncm torque using different three protocols. After 5 min, the strain gauge level was measured, and group analysis was performed (α=.05). Results: External group showed significantly lower strain values than internal group and the EH group showed significantly lower strain values than the ENH group (P<.05). There was no difference in strain value based on the types of screw tightening protocols in same group (P>.05). The IH group exhibited significantly higher strain values than the INH group and the IH group showed a significant difference in strain values based on the types of screw tightening protocols used (P<.05). Conclusion: There was no significant effect on the external type in the implant-supported, screw-retained prostheses. However, strain values were high in the internal type, and the types of screw tightening protocol significantly affected these implants.

When the marginal fit of fixed dental prosthesis decreases, biological and technical complications, such as plaque accumulation, periodontal disease, hypersensitivity, components fracture, cement loss, can happen. The complications affect the long-term success and survival of prostheses. This case report describes a clinical procedure to minimize the marginal gap of implant-supported screw-and-cement retained prosthesis by removing prosthesis-abutment complex and burnishing the interface area. The marginal gap was measured before and after the burnishing using a stereomicroscope and compared. This technique improves the marginal fit, thereby contributing the longevity of the prosthesis.

The implant prosthesis can be divided into the screw retained prosthesis and cement retained prosthesis. Each type has advantages as well as disadvantages which is unfavorable to maintain the implants. To overcome these drawbacks, T-screw system was developed. T-screw system which utilizes a lingual direction of the screw to retain the implant prosthesis, has advantages of retrievability of the prosthesis, passive fit, and possibility to form esthetic and functional occlusal surface. The prior prosthesis which utilized horizontal screws had difficulty in fabrication especially in the case of multiple units, and also limited use with all-ceramic prosthesis. In this case, fabricating the implant prosthesis by using the T-screw system showed superior results in easy maintenance, esthetics, and also functions. In addition, we are to report the method of using the T-screw system in implant prosthesis, such as multiple units of implant prosthesis and all ceramic prosthesis.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical performance of screw- and cement-retained implant prosthesis (SCP) design in terms of retained preload of abutment screws and cement washout. Materials and methods: Patients with the partial posterior edentulous areas comprised the study group. Implants were placed, and SCPs were delivered after 3 to 6 months healing. Follow-up examinations were performed. The implant survival rate and the prosthetic success rate were evaluated. The retained preload ratio of abutment screws and the prosthetic decementation ratio were measured. Results: Twenty one SCPs (forty three implants)in twenty patients were followed up to 64 months. All of the implants survived during the follow-up period (mean follow-up: 34 months). The prosthetic success rate was 100 % considering no abutment, screw, porcelain or metal frame fractures, as well as no screw loosening. The retained preload ratio of SCPs at the end of follow-up period was 97.61% (${\pm}16.29$) and the decementation ratio was 9.5 %. Conclusion: Within the limitations of this clinical study, SCP design showed favorable short-term clinical performances in respect of screw loosening and cement washout.

As the size of electric products such as mobile phones and smart watches decrease, the bolts used to assemble these products should also be miniaturized. A miniature-sized bolt has to provide sufficient joining torque and anti-releasing torque to keep the components together. We studied a serrated bolt as a candidate for a miniature-sized fastener to increase the anti-releasing torque. In a serrated bolt, a serrated shape is formed on the bottom surface of the bolt head to create an obstacle to releasing. In this study, finite element analyses for the joining and releasing of bolts were carried out, and the anti-releasing performance was predicted. Based on the results of analyses using various numbers of serrations and fastening depths, the effects of the number of serrations and fastening depth on the anti-releasing performance were investigated.
