Although the long-term success of osseointegrated endosseous implants for the support of fixed dental prostheses has been reported, the increasingly widespread use of implant-supported prostheses has led to problems associated with their structural integrity. The most common biomechanical complications observed in dental implant treatment are fracture and screw loosening. The nature of loosening or fracture of dental implant components is complex, since it involves fatigue, fitness, and varied chewing patterns and loads. To assess the service life of the components of the prosthetic system, a knowledge of the loads transmitted through the system is necessary. Design of the final restoration and occlusion in relation to the geometry of a prosthetic restoration has a great influence on the mechanical loading of the implant. It is proposed that control of force in oral cavity may play a larger role in failures than previously believed. Based on theoretic consideration and clinical experiences with dental implant, this article gives simple guidelines for controlling these loads.

It has been suggested in research results thai dental hygienists have high risk of carpal tunnel syndrome, mainly caused by the repeated motion of extensor and flexor or the use of vibration tools, compared to other occupations. To find out the situation of the carpal tunnel syndrome of dental hygienists, who are exposed to work-related musculoskeletal disorders, this study used 132 questionnaires given on May 22, 2004, the period of continuing education of the first half year in the Gwangju Jeonnam area, and obtained the following results. 1. Subjects worked at a dental ciinic(32.6%), a hospital(31.8%), and a public health center(35.6%). Age by work was under 24 in a clinic(17.4%) and a hospital(15.9%), and over 30 in a public health center(35.6%). 2. In practice conducted over one time a day, a scaling accounted for 90.7% in a doctor's office; 595% in a hospital; and 3.0% in a public health center, suggesting significant difference(p<0.01). Pit and fissure sealant accounted for 53.5% in a clinic; 53.2% in a hospital; and 95% in a public health center, also suggesting significant difference(p0.01). 3. Symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome appeared in a wrist(12.1%), a right hand(14.4%), and a left hand(5.3%). 4. In case of temporary crown practice, symptoms appeared in a wrist(22.0%), a right hand(14.0%), and a left hand(4.0%), suggesting significant difference(p<0.01). The above results showed that 12.1% of dental hygienists was exposed to carpal tunnel syndrome. Thus, it is considered very important that dental hygienists should be given education of the danger of continuous work in certain motions and prevention education of improving repeated position, and make efforts to reinforce self-control ability.

In the process of arranging artificial teeth the simple atracing technique was shown to be more precise and convenient for general use in dental clinic than gothic arch tracing. The simple tracing technique had some advantages over other ones in that they were very useful to check protrusive, lateral and central occlusion of mandible movement, and it was very easy to transfer the oral condition and mandible movements precisely onto the articulator. Also the technique was more effective than when using wax bite in that the functional movement range has shifted to 0.2 - 0.4mm form central occlusion.
