When treating partial edentulous patients, it is important to use an appropriate restorative materials. Inappropriate restorative materials can adversely affect the outcome of prosthetic restorations. Zirconia and dental metal, which are currently and widely used materials, have a higher elastic modulus than cortical bone, so when an external force is generated, a harmful force can be applied to the implant and the bone around the implant. Polyetherketoneketone (PEKK), a recently introduced material, has a elastic modulus similar to that of cortical bone, and has many advantages in terms of physical properties and biocompatibility. This case report describes that implant-supported fixed prosthetic treatment using PEKK was performed, and functional and esthetic satisfactory results were obtained.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate marginal gap of fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) fabricated by soft metal material with using dental computer aided design/computer aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) system and to compare gap of its by a conventional method. Ten same cases of study models were manufactured and scanned for digital models fabricating. Ten FDPs were fabricated by soft metal material using dental CAD/CAM (SMB group). Then, ten FDPs were fabricated by cast metal using lost wax technique and casting method (LWC group). Marginal gap was measured by silicone replica technique. Gap was measured by digital microscope (${\times}160$). Mann-Whitney test for statistical analysis was executed (${\alpha}=0.05$). The mean (standard deviations) of marginal gap was $76.5{\mu}m$ (35.2) for the SMB group, and $82.9{\mu}m$ (22.1) for the LWC group. Statistically significant differences were not found between SMB and LWC. As results, FDPs fabricated by soft metal material were clinically acceptable range.

다양한 소재(금속, 세라믹, 고분자 소재 등)들이 3차원 형상기반 적층제조법에 적용되고 있는데, 금속 소재를 이용하여 3D 프린팅 법으로 치과용 수복물을 제조하는 연구가 많이 보고되고 있다. 하지만, 티타늄 또는 티타늄 합금 분말을 이용하여 3D 프린팅 법으로 제작한 치과용 보철물에 관한연구 보고는 많지 않다. Kanazawa 등 (2014)은 Ti-6Al-4V 합금분말을 이용하여 SLM법으로 총의치 용 framework를 제작하여 주조법으로 제작한 것과 비교 평가하였고, Mangano 등(2013)은 Ti-6Al-4V 합금분말로 지름이 작은 일체형 (1-piece narrow-diameter) 임플란트를 SLS법으로 제작하여 16명의 환자에게 식립한 다음, 2년간 관찰하였고, Mangano 등 (2014)은 cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) data를 3D이미지로 변환시켜 DLMS법으로 치근 형상의 임플란트를 제작하여 15명의 환자에게 식립한 다음, 1년간 관찰하였다. 또한 서울대학교 및 연세대학교 치과생체재료과학교실 (2016)에서는 3D 프린팅 법으로 제작한 티타늄 시편과 기계 가공한 티타늄 시편의 물성을 비교하였다. 그러나 티타늄 합금 분말을 이용하여 3D 프린팅 법으로 제작한 치과용 보철물을 실제 임상에 적용하는 단계에서 기존 기계가공 방식으로 제작한 티타늄 보철물과 3D 프린팅 법으로 제작한 티타늄 보철물의 물성과 표면특성을 다양하게 비교 평가하는 것이 필요하여 본 연구에서는 3D 프린팅 법으로 제작한 티타늄 시편과 기계 가공한 티타늄 시편의 물성특성과 표면특성을 비교하여 조사하였다.

For many years, ceramics have been used in fixed prosthodontics for achieving optimal esthetics. but, they have another use as well. Many studies today show ceramics can be used for biomaterials. In the beginning researchers made a start in the study of aluminium oxide and sapphire for biomaterial. The appearance of Zirconia began a new phase of research. Zirconia was introduced into implantology as an alternative to titanium, because of its white color, good mechanical properties and superior biocompatibility. But it is not easy to surface treatment in comparison with titanium. To overcome the limitation, interconnected porous bodies of zirconia were fabricated by sintering technique. And the technique of coating was developed. Therefore, some zirconia implants are currently available. It is thought that Research of biomaterials as a variety of puposes for the use of zirconia is looking very promising. The purpose of this paper reviews are to evaluation of zirconia as biomaterials.

Additive manufacturing (AM) for dental materials can produce more complex forms than conventional manufacturing methods. Compared to milling processing, AM consumes less equipment and materials, making sustainability an advantage. AM can be categorized into 7 types. Polymers made by vat polymerization are the most suitable material for AM due to superior mechanical properties and internal fit compared to conventional self-polymerizing methods. However, polymers are mainly used as provisional restoration due to their relatively low mechanical strength. Metal AM uses powder bed fusion methods and has higher fracture toughness and density than castings, but has higher residual stress, which requires research on post-processing methods to remove them. AM for ceramic use vat polymerization of materials mixed with ceramic powder and resin polymer. The ceramic materials for AM needs complex post-processing such as debinding of polymer and sintering. The low mechanical strength and volumetric accuracy of the products made by AM must be improved to be commercialized. AM requires more research to find the most suitable fabrication process conditions, as the mechanical properties and surface of any material will vary depending on the processing condition.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the biomechanical behavior and long-term safety of high performance polymer PEKK as an intraradicular dental post-core material through comparative finite element analysis (FEA) with other conventional post-core materials. A 3D FEA model of a maxillary central incisor was constructed. A cyclic loading force of 50 N was applied at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ to the longitudinal axis of the tooth at the palatal surface of the crown. For comparison with traditionally used post-core materials, three materials (gold, fiberglass, and PEKK) were simulated to determine their post-core properties. PEKK, with a lower elastic modulus than root dentin, showed comparably high failure resistance and a more favorable stress distribution than conventional post-core material. However, the PEKK post-core system showed a higher probability of debonding and crown failure under long-term cyclic loading than the metal or fiberglass post-core systems.

A 3D-printed resin crown is a novel option for esthetic crown restoration for primary teeth, which are typically bonded with resin cement. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the bonding ability of a 3D printing resin and compare it with other indirect resin materials for crown fabrication. The shear bond strengths of two 3D printing resin materials, Graphy (GP) and NextDent (NXT), and two indirect resin materials, VIPI Block (VIPI) and MAZIC Duro (MZ), were compared in the study. For all materials, the shear bond strength at the interface between the surface of the resin material and resin cement was measured. The mean shear bond strength values of GP, NXT, MZ, and VIPI were 23.29 ± 3.88, 26.14 ± 4.67, 25.41 ± 4.03, and 18.79 ± 4.26 MPa, respectively. There was no significant difference among the SBSs of GP, NXT and MZ except for VIPI. The result of this study indicates that the 3D printing resin meets the essential requirement for clinical use by showing clinically adequate bond strength.

To evaluate the dental restorative application of polymer composites filled with hydroxyapatite (HAP) which is an inorganic component of human bone material, dental properties of the polymer composites were investigated. A visible light system was utilized to activate the acrylate resin matrix of the composites. Maximum loading percentage of HAP in composite was 65 wt% and the depth of cure was 6.0 mm which can be applicable for dental restoration. With increasing the HAP content, degree of conversion of polymer composites was slightly decreased, however, polymerization shrinkage value was not varied. Diametral tensile strength value was enhanced with an increase of HAP content, however, there was no strict trend between flexural strength and HAP concentration. Anyhow, polymer composites prepared herein have superior mechanical properties sufficient specifications applicable to dental materials.
