Fixed restoration using implants for patients with posterior partial edentulism is generalized technique. As patient demands increase, the functional and esthetic implant restoration to achieve similar results to lost natural teeth is becoming an important issue. It is inevitable to use customized CAD/CAM abutments rather than ready-made abutments for the creation of implant prosthesis which closely resembles natural teeth. Using CAD/CAM abutment made it possible to obtain natural emergency profiles for posterior implant prostheses, ensuring more comfortable, efficient management of oral hygiene. However, keratinized gingiva with sufficient width and height for a natural emergence profile is required to use a large diameter CAD/CAM abutment which ensures stability and esthetics of hard/soft tissue around the implants. In this case, for esthetical and functional implant zirconia prosthesis, soft tissue graft was performed and customized CAD/CAM abutments were used following ridge augmentation, sinus graft and implantation. Satisfactory results were obtained functionally and esthetically through periodic clinical evaluation, and I hereby report this case.

Piezosurgery uses modulated ultrasonic vibration to allow controlled cuting of bony structures. delicate bony structures can be cut easily and with great precision without destruction of soft tissue. Piezosurgery can be used to harvest the chin bone for intra-oral augmentation. Maxillary sinus membrane perforation is the most common complication that occurs with the sinus elevation augmentation procedure. This complication can occur during the osteotomy, which is performed with burs, or during the elevation of the membrane using manual elevators. The purpose of this study is to introduce new surgical technique that simplifies chin bone graft and maxillary sinus surgery, thus avoiding perforating the membrane.

Short implants are used in parts which have anatomical structures like maxillary sinus, inferior alveolar nerve and limited alveolar height due to severe alveolar bone resorption. In these case, there are no need of additional bone augmentation so there are advantages like reduced entire treatment time, reduced patient's discomfort and protection of important anatomical structures. The aim of this study is, in implants whose length is less than 10mm, to analyze the impact of implant length, diameter, location of implant placement, presence of bone graft, presence of prosthesis splinting on survival rates and marginal bone resorption. The samples used in this study were 227 implants, less than 10mm, placed in 137 patients in Wonkwang university dental hospital implant center. From dental charts the information about implant length, diameter, location of implant placement, presence of bone graft, presence of prosthesis splinting were obtained. Emago advanced v5.6(Oral diagnostic systems, Amsterdam, The Netherlands)program was used to measure the amount of marginal bone resorption. Out of total 227 implants, resulting in 96.5 % of survival rate. There was a tendency toward higher failure rates for the maxilla and bone graft site. No significant difference in marginal bone resorption was found associated with length of implants(p>0.05) and neither with the diameter of implants. Among the risk factors examined, more failure rates of short implants can be attributed to poor bone quality in the maxilla and presence of bone graft. At implants under 10mm, length, diameter, location of implant placement, bone graft and splinting of prosthesis didn't affect marginal bone loss.

Purpose: Inevitably, Maxillary structural defect follows maxillary cancer extirpation. Maxillary reconstruction is over every surgeon's head. Every physician tried to overcome limited donor site of craniofacial defect. We considered to suggest optimal method of inferior orbital wall defect in functional point as well as esthetic point. Methods: We performed wide excision of maxilla and vascularized partial thickness calvarial bone flap to reconstruct the defect from cancer extirpation in three cases. We select ipsilateral superficial temporal artery, vein and outer cortex of parietal bone flap as donor. And we applied bone flap as inferior orbital wall structure. The bony surface was wrapped with fascia to prevent direct contact between orbital contents and rough bony flap surface. Computed tomography image was checked during follolw up period. Results: We can observe these patients for over two years. In all three cases, We can get fair inferior orbital wall structure. Even though they got radiation therapy, there was no limitation of extraocular movements, no diplopia. no enophthalmos. Also there was minimal donor site morbidity. Conclusion: We suggest vascularized calvarial bone flap is practically excellent strategy for inferior orbital wall reconstruction.

The maxillary posterior area is the most challenging site for the dental implant. After missing of teeth on maxillary posterior area due to periodontal problems, the remaining alveolar ridge is usually very thin because of not only pneumatization of maxillary sinus but also destruction of alveolar bone. The maxillary sinus bone graft procedure is one of the most predictable and successful treatments for the rehabilitation of atrophic and pneumatized endentulous posterior maxilla. But, in case of severe destruction of alveolar bone due to periodontal problems, very long crown length is still remaining problem after successful sinus graft procedures. We performed vertical augmentation of maxillary posterior alveolar ridge using mandibular ramal block bone graft with simultaneous sinus graft. After this procedures, we could get more favorable crown-implant ratio of final prosthodontic appliance and more satisfactory results on biomechanics. This is a preliminary report of the vertical augmentation of maxillary posterior alveolar ridge using mandibular ramal block bone graft with simultaneous sinus graft, so requires more long-term follow up and further studies.

The aim of this study was to evaluate implant stability placed in the maxillary sinus which was augmented with bovine bone mineral(Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$) mixed with autogenous bone from the maxillary tuberosity. Maxillary sinus floor augmentation with the mixture of bovine bone mineral and autogenous maxillary tuberosity bone was performed in 30 maxillary sinuses, and 68 implants were placed at the time of sinus graft. After 6 months of implant placement abutments were connected and implant stability quotient(ISQ) was measured by radio frequency analysis(RFA). In addition, bone level changes was evaluated by taking periapical radiograph. During surgical procedures, no complication was observed, and all patients healed uneventfully. At 6 months the implant showed stable ISQ values. The marginal bone level changes around the fixtures was stably maintained through out the follow up period. This study confirmed that maxillary sinus floor augmentation with mixture of bovine bone mineral and maxillary tuberosity bone could be reliable for bone regeneration in subantral space.

Since the implant became the important treatment modality in dentistry, the research and clinical effort to mimic natural tooth appearance have been pursued. While the rehabilitation of mastication and occlusal appearance was focused in the past, more esthetic and functional restoration was preferred recently. To fulfill this demand, the clinicians should consider the axial contour, papilla space, subgingival appearance, as well as the shape of occlusal surface. In the surgery part, there have been significant advances in the adequate formation of bone and soft tissue through the careful reflection on the surgery time and incision. When the dentist has good knowledge about this aspect and passion for the final product, he or she can acquire better results.

The aim of this study was to evaluate histomorphometrically and compare the efficiency of various bone graft material and autogenous tooth bone graft material which were used in sinus bone graft procedure. Subjects were the 24 patients who had treated with sinus bone graft using lateral approach from October 2007 to September 2009 at SNUBH. The average age was $52.51{\pm}11.86$ years. All cases was taken after 4month of procedure and divided into 3 groups according to bone graft material. Group 1: autogenous tooth bone graft material, Group 2: OrthoblastII(integra lifescience corp. Irvine, US)+Biocera(Osscotec, seoul, korea), group 3: DBX(Synthes, USA)+BioOss(Geistlich Pharm AG, Wolhusen, Switzerland). Total 37 implant placement area were included and evaluated(7 in group 1, 10 in group 2, 20 in group 3). Evaluation of new bone formation, ratio of woven bone to lamellar bone, ratio of new bone to graft material were performed on each tissue section. Kruskal-Wallis test was used for statistical analysis(SPSS Ver. 12.0, USA). New bone formation were $52.5{\pm}10.7%$ in group 1, $52.0{\pm}23.4%$ in group 2, $51.0{\pm}18.3%$ in group 3. There were no statistical significant differences between each groups. Ratio of woven bone to lamella bone were $82.8{\pm}15.3%$ in group 1, $36.7{\pm}59.3%$ in group 2, $31.0{\pm} 51.2%$ in group 3. Ratio of new bone to graft material were $81.3{\pm}10.4%$ in group 1, $72.5{\pm}28.8%$ in group 2, $80.3{\pm}24.0%$ in group 3. After 4 month of healing period, all group showed favorable new bone formation and around graft material and implant. Within limitation of our study, it is suggested that autogenous tooth bone graft material might be used as novel bone graft material for sinus bone graft.
