목적: 본 연구는 토크 게이지를 이용하여, 치과 기공사들이 임플란트 기공을 진행할 때 가하는 토크의 양을 측정해 분석하고, 이러한 결과가 보철물에 어떠한 결과를 미치는 알아보기 위함이다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 치과 기공사들이 임플란트 기공시 임플란트 나사에 가하는 토크를 디지털 토크 게이지를 이용하여 측정한다. 이후 기성지대주와 analog를 이용하여, 제조사의 권장 토크로 조였을 때의 길이를 통계학적으로 비교 분석하였다. 결과: 치과 기공사들의 임플란트 기공시 평균 토크는 $1.563{\pm}0.332Ncm$로 나타났으며, 제조사의 권장토크 값으로 조였을 때와 비교하면, 외부연결형의 침하량 차이는 없으나, 내부연결형의 침하량의 차이는 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(P < 0.05). 결론: 치과기공실에서도 제조사의 권장토크를 이용하여 보철물 기공작업을 시행하고, 정확한 토크 게이지의 사용법을 익히면, 기공오차에 따른 임플란트의 부적합을 어느 정도 해소할 수 있을 것이라 사료된다.

The use of screw-retaind prosthesis on an osseointegrated implant is a popular treatment modality offering relative ease in the removal of the restoration. One of the complications associated with this modality is the loosening of the abutment and coping screws. Loosening of the screws results in patient dissatisfaction, frustration to the dentist and, if left untreated, component fracture. There are several factors which contribute to the loosening of implant components which can be controlled by the restorative dentist and lab technician. This article offers pratical solutions to minimize this clinical problem and describes the factors involved in maintaining a stable screw joint assembly. To avoid joint failure, adherence to specific clinical, as well as mechanical, parameters is critical. With respect to hardware, optimal tolerance and fit, minimal rotational play, best physical properties, a predictable interface, and optimal torque application are mandatory. In the clinical arena, optimal implant distribution; load in line with implant axis; optimal number, diameter, and length of implants; elimination of cantilevers; optimal prosthesis fit; and occlusal load control are equally important.

치과 임플란트는 상실된 치아의 수복에 효과적이고 예측 가능한 치료 방법이다. 하지만 임플란트 사용이 증가함에 따라 합병증도 증가하고 있다. 이 중 기계적 합병증은 발생 빈도가 높을 뿐 아니라 임플란트의 수명이 길어질수록 더 많이 발생하므로 이에 대한 대책이 필요하다. 이에 임플란트의 가장 흔한 기계적 합병증인 지대주 파절과 지대주 나사 파절의 증례에서 파손된 부위만 재제작하여 파손되지 않은 구성요소를 최대한 보존할 수 있는 방법을 소개하고자 한다.

PURPOSE. To evaluate the cumulative survival rate (CSR) and mechanical complications of single-tooth $Ankylos^{(R)}$ implants. MATERIALS AND METHODS. This was a retrospective clinical study that analyzed 450 single $Ankylos^{(R)}$ implants installed in 275 patients between December 2005 and December 2012. The main outcomes were survival results CSR and implant failure) and mechanical complications (screw loosening, fracture, and cumulative fracture rate [CFR]). The main outcomes were analyzed according to age, sex, implant length or diameter, bone graft, arch, and position. RESULTS. The 8-year CSR was 96.9%. Thirteen (2.9%) implants failed because of early osseointegration failure in 3, marginal bone loss in 6, and abutment fracture in 4. Screw loosening occurred in 10 implants (2.2%), and 10 abutment fractures occurred. All abutment fractures were located in the neck, and concurrent screw fractures were observed. The CSR and rate of screw loosening did not differ significantly according to factors. The CFR was higher in middle-aged patients (5.3% vs 0.0% in younger and older patients); for teeth in a molar position (5.8% vs 0.0% for premolar or 1.1% for anterior position); and for larger-diameter implants (4.5% for 4.5 mm and 6.7% for 5.5 mm diameter vs 0.5% for 3.5 mm diameter) (all P<.05). CONCLUSION. The $Ankylos^{(R)}$ implant is suitable for single-tooth restoration in Koreans. However, relatively frequent abutment fractures (2.2%) were observed and some fractures resulted in implant failures. Middle-aged patients, the molar position, and a large implant diameter were associated with a high incidence of abutment fracture.

To investigate the bone remodeling phenomenon around implant device, 3-D mathematical simulation model was developed. Strain energy density from the finite element method was chosen for the indicator for remodeling process. Recursive calculations continued until converged results between FEM and mathematical model. For a osteo-integration example, bone-remodeling process in a implanted tibia of beagle was adapted. Calculated results indicated that the bone densities around screw pitch were increased which indicates firm fixations between the bone and implant. Screw design parameters have an influence on initial stability of the implant rather than remodeling process.

Statement of problem : Several domestic dental implants have been developed since dental treatment being implants are increasing and popularized. However, they have not been used in domestic market like imported goods. Material and methods : This study was carried out to compare domestic and imported implants in aspect of fitness, dental implant fixture and abutment screw using scanning electron microscope. All experiments were performed under dry condition. Results : 1. Only in aspect of relation of dental implant fkxture and abutment screw, except only one group with point contact, good fitness was existed. 2. Home products must presevere in their efforts, so as excellent to fit.

The biocompatibility and durability of implant fixtures are major concerns for dentists and patients. Mechanical complications of the implant include abutment screw loosening, screw fracture, loss of implant prostheses, and implant fracture. This case report aims to describe management of a case of fixture damage that occurred after screw fracture in a tissue level, internal connection implant and microscopic evaluation of the fractured fixture. A trephine bur was used to remove the fixture, and the socket was grafted using allogeneic bone material. The failed implant was examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), which revealed a fractured fixture with both normal and irregular bone patterns. The SEM and EDS results give an enlightenment of the failed fixture surface micromorphology with microfracture and contaminated chemical compositions. Noticeably, the significantly high level of gold (Au) on the implant surface and the trace amounts of Au and titanium (Ti) in the bone tissue were recorded, which might have resulted from instability and micro-movement of the implant-abutment connection over an extended period of time. Further study with larger number of patient and different types of implants is needed for further conclusion.

Statement of problem. To work the economic limitation of dental implant usage, some types of domestic implant have been developing. But, there have been seldom reported about the clinical success rate of them as yet. Purpose. The aim of this retrospective multicenter study was to evaluate the performance of CSM implants(CSM company, Daegu, Korea). Material and methods. Thirty-five patients were rehabilitated with 150 CSM implants in this multicenter study. Results. The success rate was 96.2%. CSM Titanium fixtures can obtain slightly higher success rate when a cover screw was not used for implant installation than when used. However it doesn't show significant difference(p=.7615, Fisher's Exact test). Conclusion. This multicenter retrospective study demonstrated the efficacy of the CSM implant in the treatment of variety of clinical manifestation of tooth loss. And it can be assumed that whether a cover screw is used or not should no influence on the osseointegration.
