Recently, researches to develop phased array ultrasonic examination techniques are proceeded to diagnose dental caries and the status of surgical operation of dental implant. Sound field analysis of phased array ultrasonic transducers were carried out in order to characterizing the ultrasonic phased array beams. The sound field of ultrasonic radiation was calculated for the sample called "gypsum-improved stone" with the similar characteristics of dental materials. Industrial phased array ultrasonic devices were utilized for the insptriion of the artificial flaws machined in the gypsum-improved stone. Dental implants were made at the pig jaw bone and defect images were confirmed for the dental implants.

본 연구는 치과용 모형재 중 4형(type IV)석고와 스캔용(scannable)석고를 이용하여 작업모형을 제작한 후, 치과용 백색광 스캐너를 이용하여 3차원 디지털 모형으로 전환한 데이터의 계측지점간 거리를 측정하여, 그 결과 값을 토대로 이종의 치과용 석고가 3차원 디지털 모형의 크기재현 시 정확성여부를 비교하였다. 본 실험을 통하여 치과용 모형재에 따른 3차원 디지털 모형의 정확도를 확인함으로써 임상 적용의 가능성을 평가하였으며, 제한된 조건 하에서 수행된 본 연구에서 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 치과용 백색광 스캐너를 사용하여 주 모형과 두 종류의 모형재로 제작한 작업모형을 3차원 디지털 모형으로 전환한 후, 선계측의 값을 비교한 결과 전체적인 계측지점에서 모두 모형재로 제작된 작업모형이 작게 계측되는 경향을 보였다. 2. 각 모형별 동일한 계측지점의 계측값의 차이가 있는지 알아보기 위해 paired t-test의 시행결과, 모든 계측지점에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<0.05). 결론적으로 두 가지 석고 모두 통계적으로 적정한 수준의 정확성을 나타내지 않았으나, 오차 수준이 선행연구에 비추어 볼 때 임상적으로 수용 가능한 수준이라 생각된다. 전악 인상채득을 통한 디지털 모형의 정확성은 검증이 되었으나, 스캔용(scannable)석고에 대한 임상 효용성을 판단하기 위해 타 제품과의 성분 분석 비교연구나 실질적인 보철물 제작을 통한 적합도 평가를 통해 CAD/CAM 보철물 제작 시장점을 부각할 수 있는 연구가 뒷받침되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate accuracy of three type complete mandibular denture of before and after polymerization. Methods: Mandibular edentulous model was selected as the master model. 15 study models were made by Type IV stone. Wax complete mandibular dentures were produced by the denture base and artificial teeth. Before and after curing, STL files were obtained using a blue scanner. By superimposing the digitized complete mandibular denture data(after curing) with the CAD-reference(before curing) three-dimensionally, visual fit-discrepancies were drawn by calculating the root mean square (RMS) and visualized on a color-difference map. Each calculated RMS-value was statistically analyzed by 1-way analysis of variance(ANOVA) (${\alpha}=.05$). Results: Mean(SD) RMS-values was OM group $88.98(6.10){\mu}m$, BM group $82.35(13.46){\mu}m$, BDM group $77.83(9.46){\mu}m$. The results of the 1-way ANOVA showed no statistically significant differences in the RMS values of the Three groups for the material (P > .241). Conclusion : Deformation of artificial teeth position was observed in all groups after resin polymerization. But the values, all group were within the clinically acceptable range. The values of BDM group showed the least deformation than the other two groups.

PURPOSE. Few studies have investigated the marginal accuracy of 3-unit zirconia fixed partial dentures (FPDs) fabricated by computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) system. The purpose of this study was to compare the marginal fit of zirconia FPDs made using two CAD/CAM systems with that of metal-ceramic FPDs. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Artificial resin maxillary central and lateral incisors were prepared for 3-unit FPDs and fixed in yellow stone. This model was duplicated to epoxy resin die. On the resin die, 15 three-unit FPDs were fabricated per group (45 in total): Group A, zirconia 3-unit FPDs made with the Everest system; Group B, zirconia 3-unit FPDs made with the Lava system; and Group C, metal-ceramic 3-unit FPDs. They were cemented to resin dies with resin cement. After removal of pontic, each retainer was separated and observed under a microscope (Presize 440C). Marginal gaps of experimental groups were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Duncan test. RESULTS. Mean marginal gaps of 3-unit FPDs were $60.46{\mu}m$ for the Everest group, $78.71{\mu}m$ for the Lava group, and $81.32{\mu}m$ for the metal-ceramic group. The Everest group demonstrated significantly smaller marginal gap than the Lava and the metal-ceramic groups (P<.05). The marginal gap did not significantly differ between the Lava and the metal-ceramic groups (P>.05). CONCLUSION. The marginal gaps of anterior 3-unit zirconia FPD differed according to CAD/CAM systems, but still fell within clinically acceptable ranges compared with conventional metal-ceramic restoration.

A comparative study was conducted to evaluate the relationship of investing medium to the amount of vertical occlusal changes and to the differences of surface smoothness during denture construction. Three groups of 20 dentures, 30 sets of upper and lower were fabricated of conventional heatcuring acrylic denture base resin, using silicone-gypsum molding techniques, with or without covering the occlusal surfaces of the teeth by artificial stone and all-gypsum molding techniques. The distance between the two reference points indented by 1/2 round bur on the upper and lower frontal surfaces of each articulator were measured and recorded before processing and again after processing and remounting of each denture on the articulator. The differences between the two recordings indicated the amount of vertical opening during denture processing. The difference of surface smoothness were investigated and determined by 3 observers continual comparing of the two randomly selected dentures with each other, which were seperately selected as pairs from the different two groups of 20. The results obtained were as follows: 1. During resin processing no statistically significant differences of the amount of vertical occlusal changes were detected between any of the two groups of two silicone-gypsum and one allgypsum molding techniques, although the amount of vertical opening was somewhat increased when silicone-gypsum molding technique was used. 2. Surface smoothness of the processed denture was makedly by increased when silicone-gypsum molding technique was used.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the stresses in different proximal margins and to measure, quantitatively, the effect of different modifications in the design of preparations on the stresses using two-dimensional photoelasticity. Photoelastic stress analysis is based on the phenomenon, exhibited by most transparent solids, of becoming birefringent, or doubly refracting, when strained. Two birefringent materials were used in this study, PSM-1 and PSM-5 in .standard sheet ($10'{\times}10'{\times}\frac{1}{4}'$ thickness), PSM-1(polyester) was used for constructing the substructure, and PSM-5(epoxy resin) was used in making the restorations to be investigated. Two birefringent materials were used in the construction of composite photoelastic model. Seven variable models were constructed. The peripheral dimensions of all model were constant and the models represent an occlusomesial section of a lower posterior molar. Model 1 represents the knife edge margin (shoulderless), Model 2 represents the chamfer, Model 3 represents a rounded shoulder(no sharp angle between the axial wall and gingival floor), Model 4 represents a flat shoulder (axial wall is a $90^{\circ}$ angle to the gingival wall), Model 5 represents $+15^{\circ}$ angulation, Model 6 has a $-15^{\circ}$ angulation, and Model 7 is the same as Model 4 except that it has a $45^{\circ}$ bevel. Improved artificial stone was used to represent dental cement in luting the composite photoelastic model. Static loading procedures(100 pounds) were used at preplanned sites. The results were as follows; 1. The stresses in the proximal portion of all tested models were compressive in nature when the proximal shoulders were loaded vertically on the same proximal marginal ridge. 2. The round and chamfered preparations were the optimum designs in proximoocclusal restorations. They showed the lowest stress concentration factor, i.e. 2.16 and 2.23, respectively. The knife edged shoulder had the highest value, K=5.39. Round type shoulder geometry experiments reduced the stress concentration factor (S.C.F.) 3. The gingival portion of proximal shoulder geometry was a critical location for stress concentration.

It is very important to arrange the artificial teeth correctly in bucco-lingual (labio- lingual) relation in reconstrcting dentition. Although many anatomic landmarks and techniques have been reported over the years, they are based on westerns. So this study was performd to examine the horizontal relations of mandibular teeth in Korean dentulous adults. 200 volunteers(mean age 22.9) who had natural dentition were selected. The impressions were taken with irreversible hydrocolloid impression material and mandibular study models were fabricated using class I dental stone. Then they were measured with 3-dimensional measuring device specially designed for this study. The results were as follows ; It is better to consider the lingual cusps of the lower posterior teeth as a guide than the linguoaxial surfaces of the lower posterior teeth, arranging the lower posterior teeth buccally to the line which starts from the mesial aspect of the lower canine and continue backward to the lingual aspect of the retromolar pad. It is better to arrange the fossae of the lower posterior teeth buccally to the line which starts from the cusp tip of the lower canine and continue backward to the top of the retromolar pad. The positions of the lower posterior teeth in the denture-bearing area ; considering the fossa as a guide, the 2nd premolar was positioned in center. considering the buccal cusp as a guide, the 1st molar and the 2nd molar were positioned in center. the distance ratio(d/a) was incresed constantly from the lower canine to the 2nd molar d ; the distance between the buccal vestibule(the lowest point) and the buccal cusp tips of the lower posterior teeth. a ; the distance between the buccal vestibule(the lowest point) and the lingual vestibule(the lowest point). The lower canine was positioned lingually($0.11{\pm}0.13$) than the labial vestibule, and the central incisor and the lateral incisor were positioned almost in the imaginary perpendicular plane of the labial vestibule(the lowest point).

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the fitness of lower jaw compete denture with glass fiber. Methods: Lower jaw edentulous model was selected as the master model. Ten study models were produced using Type IV stone(n=10). Lower jaw trial dentures were produced by the wax denture base and artificial teeth. Conventional complete denture (CD) group was fabricated by excluding glass fiber reinforcement (n=5). Glass fiber complete denture (GD) group was fabricated with glass fiber reinforcement (n=5). The lower jaw trial complete denture was invested using a plaster. PMMA resin was injected and curing was performed. The CD and GD groups measured the fit using silicone replica technology. The measured data was verified by t-test. Results: The anterior area of the CD group showed the smallest value. There was a statistically significant difference in the anterior area of the CD group and the GD group (p<0.05), but there was no statistically significant difference in the posterior area (p>0.05). Conclusion : Complete denture with glass fiber showed low fitness and further study is needed to apply it clinically.
