implant라는 것은 생리학적으로 생체에 있어서 이물이라는것을 인식해야 한다. 또 그 일부를 상부구조물을 제작하기 위하여 구강내에 노출시킴으로써 연조직과의 접촉부위가 감염으로 염증상태를 지속하고 있다. 그뿐아니라 저작시에 교합압에 의한 위격으로 골내에 여러 가지 변화를 일으킨다. 이와같이 생체내에 이물를 implant 하였을 때 생기는 반응은 생체의 방어기전으로서 염증을 일으키는데 이 염증의 진도에 따라 동화, 흡수, 배제중의 어느 하나로 결말짓게 된다. 따라서 implant를 시술하였을때 생기는 조직의 반응을 최소한으로 감소하기 위한 생물학적 적응조건으로서 재료, 약물, 기구, 시술방법 등을 잘 선택하는 것이 implant의 임상응용에 요절이 되는것이다. implant의 종류는 실로 다양다종이다. 그러나 어떤 implant와 시술방법을 선택하든지 악골에 접착, 또는 식위하여 견고하게 장착되어 그 implant된 자체를 통하여 가장 천연치에 가까운 기능을 얻는것이 implant의 시술목적이다. 임상의가 implant를 시술하면서 이것이 과연 성공할것인가? 즉 저작효율과 내구연한이 얼마나 갈것인가 우려하지 않을수 없다. 그러므로 그 우려를 덜고 성공으로 이끄는 임상상의 문제점을 찾아 논하기로 한다.

1960년대 중반부터 도입된 구치부 복합레진 수복은 복합레진과 접착시스템의 향상된 물성 때문에 구치부 사용에 대한 주목할 만한 결과를 보고하고 있다. 현재는 다수의 1급, 2급 수복물에 복합레진이 적응증으로 기술되며, 사실상 미국치과의사 협회(ADA)도 초기와 중등과 크기의 병소를 보존적 I, II급 와동으로 형성된 뒤 복합레진으로 수복하는 시술의 적절성을 인정하고 있다. ADA는 "복합레진을 유치나 영구치의 I급, II급, V급 수복에 올바르게 적용하면 아발감의 수명에 뒤지지 않는다."라고 기술하고 있다. 이에 본 강연에서는 I급과 II급 복진레진 수복을 위한 관련된 재료들의 특성과 단점들을 극복하기 위한 노력들을 설명하고자 한다. 특히 중합수축과 관련된 문제점들을 해결하기 위해 제시되고 있는 방법들의 임상적 적용 가능성의 한계와 술후 과민증을 줄이기 위한 방법, 그리고 구치부에 적용된 레진들의 마모를 줄일 수 있는 방법들을 모색하고 한다. 더불어 구치부 복합레진 수복을 위한 임상 시술 시 가장 흔하게 발생되는 단조로운 인접면 외형 형성 및 접촉점 개방의 문제점을 인식하고 이를 막기 위한 노력 및 기구들의 사용 조작에 대해 토의해 보고자 한다.

The purpose of the present study was to examine dental hygienists' perception of the current national practical examination. This research was performed using 199 self-reported surveys answered by professors of dental hygiene studies and clinical dental hygienist. Frequency analysis, chi-square tests, and analysis of variance were performed by using IBM SPSS Statistics ver. 20.0. The results revealed that many of the respondents consider the current national practical examination to be neutral. They did not think that the current national practical examination questions are useful for assessing occupation-centric integrated clinical practice ability and counseling techniques for patient intervention. The professors of dental hygiene studies believed that among the research tasks required as mentioned in the national practical examination questions, dental polishing and tooth brushing education are of paramount importance, whereas clinical dental hygienists believed that ultrasonic scaling is the most important (p<0.05). Most of the professors of dental hygiene studies reported that they conducted skills education for dental polishing and tooth brushing education, while most of the clinical dental hygienists reported that tasks actually performed in the clinic included impression taking, model fabrication, ultrasonic scaling, and explaining treatment precautions (p<0.05). Therefore, these tasks can be effectively carried out with the improvement of the national dental hygienist practical examination.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the distribution of microorganisms and the degree of contamination in the air of the dental clinics and to offer basic data as to the contamination of medical equipment and the prevention of the clinics. With this in mind, the researcher gathered air samples from the waiting rooms and medical offices of nine dental clinics in the city of J, South Korea with the use of a method of natural inattention and an air sampler and cultivated the samples on the plain table and drew from it bacteria falling and separated and sorted out the colony with the help of ATB and detected the distribution of the germs. The results are following, The number of bacteria falling in the air of the dental clinics was less than 10(CFU/Plate) with the exception of one dental clinic. This implies that they fit in with standards for hygiene. The number of bacteria falling in the air of the medical offices was less than 10(CFU/Plate) with the exception of one dental clinic. This implies that they fit in with standards for hygiene. The survey on the detection of staph. aureus reveals that all the dental clinics with the exception of B dental clinic proving to be positive had non-pathogenic staphylococci detected. The survey on the detection of pathogenic gram negative bacilli indicates that all the dental clinics but one were none detected. The survey on the distribution of germs shows that germs in 7 out of 9 dental clinics were none detected, and that they in four out of 9 waiting rooms were none detected. All the germs detected in the others were mostly non-pathogenic. The study shows that all the subject dental clinics but one were hygienically controlled and that there was a difference in accordance with cleaning and sterilization. This means that dental clinics should be equipped with systematic programs for cleaning and sterilization designed to prevent infection.

The purpose of this study was to examine guardian's attitudes toward behavior guidance techniques used in pediatric dentistry. In this study, 117 guardians participated and the several behavior guidance techniques being used during actual pediatric dental treatment were explained to the guardians prior to writing a questionnaire. The behavior guidance techniques explained were: tell-show-do, voice control, protective stabilization by device, protective stabilization by staff, nitrous oxide sedation, sedation, and general anesthesia. For analysis, 106 completed survey forms were selected. Tell-show-do was rated as the most acceptable technique, followed (in order of decreasing acceptance) by: voice control; protective stabilization by staff; nitrous oxide sedation; protective stabilization by device; sedation; general anesthesia. Acceptance of each behavior guidance technique was not related to guardian age, gender, patient age, patient gender, patient dental experience, type of visit, and position of doctor. Within the limit of this study, the communicative guidance techniques (tell-show-do, voice control) were more acceptable than advanced behavior guidance techniques (protective stabilization, sedation, general anesthesia). The acceptability of general anesthesia was the lowest. The results of this survey may contribute to maintain optimal dentist - guardians communication in pediatric dentistry.

This study was performed to investigate the possibility of temporary threshold shift (TTS) of vibration sense could induced by exposure to high-frequency vibration or by work position taking by dentists in drilling or polishing. The vibratory perception thresholds (VPT) of 28 healthy men were measured on the index fingertip pulp of dominant hand at 250 Hz. The vibrating tool used in test was a low-speed handpiece of 34,000 rpm. For the TTS test, the dominant hand was exposed to high-frequency vibration and to work position for five minutes, respectively. The VPTs before and after vibratory exposure were $23.5{\pm}3.5dB,\;30.8{\pm}4.2dB$, respectively and VPT after work position was $23.7{\pm}4.6dB$. The difference between before and after vibartory exposure was statistically significant (p<0.001). The correlation of height, weight and BMI with baseline VPTs was not statistically significant. Also, there was no difference of VPTs by smoking. These results suggest that high-frequency vibration from dental handpieces might cause the impairment of vibration sensation.

Ni-Ti 파일은 근관치료 시 근관형성에 사용되며 근관계 내 조직 잔사와 세균 을 포함한 모든 내용물을 제거하고 미세누출이 생기지 않도록 성공적으로 근관충전을 할 수 있는 근관의 형태를 만드는데 사용된다. Ni-Ti 파일은 수동형 파일처럼 날이 풀어지거나 예각으로 꺾이는 등 시각적으로 나타나는 파일의 피로도나 손상정도를 인지하기 어려워 파일이 근관 내에서 부러지는 것을 막기가 어렵다. Ni-Ti 파일은 육안으로 관찰 할 수 있는 구부러짐이나 풀림 등의 소성변형 없이 기구의 탄성한계 내에서 갑작스럽게 파절되는 경우가 있는데, 이는 만곡 근관 내에서 기구가 회전하는 동안 만곡의 안쪽에는 압축응력이, 만곡의 바깥쪽에는 인장응력이 반복적으로 가해짐으로써 파절의 표면에 미세 파절과 균열이 발생하고 전파되어 결국 피로파절(fatigue fracture)을 야기하게 된다. 또한 Ni-Ti파일이 반복응력을 받으면 균열이 형성되면서 파절이 야기되며 연성파절(ductile fracture) 양상을 나타낸다고 보고하였다. Ni-Ti 파일을 이용한 피로파절에 대한 이전의 연구에서는 파일의 직경이나 경사도 (taper), 단면 형태 및 회전속도, 표면결함 등이 파절에 영향을 미친다고 보고되고 있다. 사용하지 않은 Ni-Ti파일을 구부려 응력을 가 한 상태에서 주사전자현미경으로 관찰한 결과 기계 가공 과정에서 발생한 균열, 미세 결함, 긁힌 자국 및 불균질성 등이 원인으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 본 연구발표에서는 표면결함을 최소화하고 기구의 회전응력 하에서 피로파절저항성을 향상시키기 위한 방법에 대하여 알아보고자 한다.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of newly marketed NRT instruments to maintain the original root canal configuration and curvature during preparation in comparison with the three existing instruments in simulated root canals. Simulated canals in resin blocks were prepared with ProFile. K3, ProTaper and NRT instrument (n = 10 canals in each case). Pre- and post-operative images were recorded, and assessment of canal shape was completed with a computer image analysis program. The data were analyzed statistically using the One-way ANOVA followed by Duncan s test. The ability or instruments to remain centered in prepared canals at 1-, 2-mm levels was significantly better in ProFile groups than in other groups (p < 0.05). The change of centering ratio in NRT groups at 5-mm level was significantly greater than ProFile group and at 6- and 7-mm level than all other groups (p < 0.05). Although the NRT system was comparable to other systems in regards to its ability to maintain the canal configuration of apical portion, this system was more influenced by the mid-root curvature due to its stainless-steel files for coronal preflaring.
