Conventional implant protocols required a load-free healing period of three to six months between placement and functional loading of the implants. Many efforts have been made to minimize the duration of treatment time. Several literatures have documented immediate function with provisional or definitive prosthesis within a week of the placement in response to these demands. In addition, immediate implant placement has advantages such as shortened treatment time and preservation of soft tissue architectures. This article presents immediate implant placement into fresh extraction sockets followed by functional immediate loading with provisional prosthesis on canine and premolars for a patient having canine protected occlusion.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to evaluate peri-implant bone loss and implant success on anterior maxillary alveolar ridges and Compare Class III and Class IV ridges in the aspect of peri-implant bone loss. Material and Methods : 14 patients (aged 21 to 68, 6males and 8females), who lacked maxillary anterior teeth and were installed from January 2000 to April 2003 at Samsung Medical Center, were selected. The type of implant used included 30 $Br\ddot{a}nemark$ implant. They were taken with digital tomographic and conventional intraoral radiographic examinmation, and were treated with implant installaion without bone augmentation. The peri-implant bone resorption was measured at the mesial and distal aspect of implant on the conventional intraoral radiographs. Results : The study classified the anterior maxillary alveolar ridge and measured peri-implant bone resorption from the period of implant installation to the 2nd year after functional loading radiographically. The study revealed no statistically significant difference between two groups, which was classified by its morphology. The average bone resorption on healing period before loading was 0.18mm and 0.18mm, the 1st year of loading period, 0.77 mm and 0.84mm, and on the 2nd year of loading period, 0.07mm and 0.06mm, respectively on both Class III and class IV. Conclusion : In the knife edge form of anterior maxillary residual ridges(Class IV), implant placement without ridge augmentation does not have significant difference with that of Class III alveolar ridge in the concern of Implant success after 2 year functional loading period in the aspect of peri-implant bone resorption radiographically.

This retrospective study evaluates the clinical performance of the recently introduced $XiVE^{(R)}$ implant(Dentsply-Friadent) with a new macro-design to improve primary stability. A total of 208 $XiVE^{(R)}$ implants (101 in the maxilla and 107 in the mandible) were placed in 71 patients. The average age of the patients was 49 years. Of the 208 implants, 190 (91.3%) were posterior implants and 82 (39.4%) were placed in compromised sites (grafted sites). Clinical and radiographic evaluation were made at second stage surgery for exposure and after functional loading. 192 implants in 64 patients were evaluated at exposure and 146 implants in 50 patients were loaded (average 170 days-loading) and evaluated after functional loading. Of 192 implants available for evaluation before loading, 3 implants failed (early failure) ; 1 before exposure, 1 at exposure and 1 during prosthetic procedure. 2 implants were in the maxilla and 1 was in the mandible. The success rate before loading was 98.4%. After functional loading, no implant failure was occurred in 146 implants evaluated during this period (100% interval success rate). This preliminary data with a new implant showed excellent success rate although the majority of implants evaluated in this study were placed in the posterior region of the jaw and compromised sites.

The gait training strategy in very important things for central nervous system(CNS) injury patients. There are many method and strategy for regaining of the gait who had CNS injury. A human being has central pattern generator(CPG) is spinal CPG for locomotion. It is a neural network which make the cyclical patterns and rhythmical activities for walking. Sensory input from loading and hip position is essential for CPG stimulation that makes the central neural rhythm and pattern generating structure. From sensory input, the proprioceptive information facilitate proximal muscles that controlled in voluntarily from cortical level and visual and / or acoustical information facilitate distal muscles that controlled voluntarily from subcortical level. Gait training method can classify that is functional level and structural level. Functional level includ level surface gait, going up and down the stair. It is important to facilitate a guide tempo in order to activate the central pattern generators. During the functional test or functional activities, can point out the poor period in gait that have to be facilitate in structural level. There are many access methods with patient position and potentiality. The methods are using of rhythmic initiation, replication and combination of isotonic with standing position. Clinically using it on weight transfer onto the stance leg, loading response, loading response and pre-swing, terminal stance, up and downwards stairs.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of immediate non-functional loading by analyzing histomorphology around the implant tissues in dogs. Five eight- to nine-month-old full-grown dogs weighing around 12 kg were used in the study. Group I (control group) comprised those in which delayed loading was applied to the right side of the mandible, and Group II (experimental group) consisted of dogs in which immediate loading was performed on the left side of the mandible. Resorbable blast media (RBM)-treated double-threaded US III implants measuring 3.5 mm in diameter and 11 mm long were used in the study. Each animal received four implants in each group, for a total of 40 implants. Cemented type abutments were used after implantation. An 8-week period was allowed for bone healing and an abutment was placed after exposing the periosteum for loading. An implant sample was obtained from bone blocks taken when the dogs were killed at 16 weeks after loading. A Mann-Whitney U-test was performed to evaluate statistical significance. Student's t-test was used for the histological evaluation. The bone formation ratio in Groups 1 and 2 was 88.23 and 86.41%, respectively. No significant difference in new bone formation was observed in the two groups. As no significant difference was seen in new bone formation between the delayed and immediate loading groups, early loading might be possible after implant placement.

Parametric resonance of shear deformable composite skew plates subjected to non-uniform (parabolic) and linearly varying periodic edge loading is studied for different boundary conditions. The skew plate structural model is based on higher order shear deformation theory (HSDT), which accurately predicts the numerical results for thick skew plate. The total energy functional is derived for the skew plates from total potential energy and kinetic energy of the plate. The strain energy which is the part of total potential energy contains membrane energy, bending energy, additional bending energy due to additional change in curvature and shear energy due to shear deformation, respectively. The total energy functional is solved using Rayleigh-Ritz method in conjunction with boundary characteristics orthonormal polynomials (BCOPs) functions. The orthonormal polynomials are generated for unit square domain using Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization process. Bolotin method is followed to obtain the boundaries of parametric resonance region with higher order approximation. These boundaries are traced by the periodic solution of Mathieu-Hill equations with period T and 2T. Effect of various parameters like skew angle, span-to-thickness ratio, aspect ratio, boundary conditions, static load factor on parametric resonance of skew plate have been investigated. The investigation also includes influence of different types of linearly varying loading and parabolically varying bi-axial loading.

Purpose: To investigate the 5-year outcome of dental implants placed in a grafted maxillary sinus using recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2). Materials and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 27 implants after maxillary sinus floor augmentation (MSFA) using rhBMP-2 in 16 patients between January 2016 and March 2017. The study evaluated two outcome variables: (1) 5-year cumulative survival and success rate of the implant after functional loading and (2) marginal bone loss (MBL) for implant failure. Results: The average residual bone height was 4.78±1.53 mm. The healing period before loading was 8.35±2.34 months. The crown-to-implant ratio was 1.31±0.26. The 5-year cumulative survival and success rate after functional loading were 100% and 96.3%, respectively. The 5-year average MLB was 0.89±0.82 mm. Conclusion: Placing dental implants with MSFA using rhBMP-2 is a reliable procedure with favorable long-term survival and success rates.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the changes in kinematic and kinetic parameters of lower extremity joint according to rehabilitation period. Fourteen collegiate male athletes(age: $22.1{\pm}1.35$ years, height: $182.46{\pm}9.45cm$, weight: $88.63{\pm}9.25kg$) and fourteen collegiate athletes on functional ankle instability(age: $21.5{\pm}1.35$ years, height: $184.45{\pm}9.42cm$, weight: $92.85{\pm}10.85kg$) with the right leg as dominant were chosen. The subjects performed drop landing. The date were collected by using VICON with 8 camera to analyze kinematic variables and force platform to analyze kinetic variables. There are two approaches of this study, one is to compare between groups, the other is to find changes of lower extremity joint after rehabilitation. In comparison to the control group, FAI group showed more increased PF & Inversion at IC and decreased full ROM when drop landing. Regarding the peak force and loading rate, it resulted in higher PVGRF and loading. FAI group used more increased knee and hip ROM because of decreased ankle ROM to absorb the shock. And it used sagittal movement to stabilize. In terms of rehabilitation period, FAI group showed that landing patterns were changed and it increased total ankle excursion and used all lower extremity joint close to normal ankle. Regarding the peak force and loading rate, FAI group decreased PVGRF and loading rate. and also showed shock absorption using increased ankle movement. And COP variable showed that proprioception training increased stability during 8 weeks. The results of this study suggest that 8 weeks rehabilitation period is worthwhile to be considered as a way to improve neuromuscular control and to prevent sports injuries.

Background: The objective of this retrospective study was to show results from platform-switched narrow-diameter implants in the posterior edentulous region, which we followed up for more than 1 year after functional loading. Methods: Ninety-eight narrow implants were inserted into 66 patients. After healing, fixed implant-supported prostheses were delivered to the patients, and Periotest and radiographic examinations were performed. After the first year of loading, the implant outcome was again evaluated clinically and radiographically using the Periotest analysis. Crestal bone loss and Periotest values (PTVs) were used to evaluate the effect of surgery, prosthesis, implant, and a host-related factor. A general linear model was used to statistically detect variables statistically associated with crestal bone loss and Periotest value. Results: We followed up on the implants over 1 to 4 years after loading; their survival rate was 100 %, and pronounced differences from PTVs were noted among jaw location, bone quality, and loading period. No difference was detected in bone loss among the variables studied. Bone loss after functional loading was $0.14{\pm}0.39mm$. The stability value from the Periotest was $-3.29{\pm}0.50$. Conclusions: Within the limitations of this study, judicious use of platform-switched narrow implants with a conical connection must be considered an alternative for wide-diameter implants to restore a posterior edentulous region.

Purpose: The possibility of immediate or early loading has become popular in implant dentistry. A prerequisite for the immediate or early loading of an implant prosthesis is the achievement of initial stability in the implant. Moreover, in response to clinicians' interest in verifying clinical stability to determine the optimal time point for functional loading, a non-invasive method to assess implant stability has been developed on the basis of resonance frequency analysis (RFA). The primary objective of this study was to monitor the stability of sandblasted, large-grit, and acid-etched (SLA) implants with different diameters during the early phases of healing by RFA. The secondary objective was to evaluate how the initial stability of implants varied depending on different surface modifications and other contributing factors. Methods: Thirty-five implants (25 SLA implants and 10 resorbable blasting media [RBM] implants) placed in 20 subjects were included. To measure implant stability, RFA was performed at baseline and at 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 10 weeks after surgery. Results: The longitudinal changes in the implant stability quotient (ISQ) values were similar for the SLA implants with different diameters and for the RBM implants. During the initial healing period, the ISQ decreased after installation and reached its lowest values at 1 week and 2 weeks, respectively. The mean ISQ values in the SLA implants were significantly higher in ${\varnothing}5.0mm$ implants than in ${\varnothing}4.0mm$ implants. Men showed a higher ISQ than women. Mandibular sites showed a higher ISQ than maxillary sites. Conclusions: All implants used in this study are suitable for immediate or early loading under appropriate indications. A wider diameter and SLA surface treatment of implants could improve the stability, if the implant is fixed with at least 30 Ncm of insertion torque.
