Anterior diastemas are common esthetic problems. One of the challenges in clinical esthetic dentistry is closing anterior diastemas without creating "black triangles" between the teeth. The success of a restorative treatment in anterior teeth depends on the esthetic integration between soft tissues and hard tissues. This report describes the successfully accomplished diastema closure case by producing the emergence profile with natural contours at the gingival-tooth interface and then generating of gingival recontouring process.

As environmental pollution getting worse, biodegradable materials have been drawn more attention than ever. In this study, polylactic acid (PLA)/carbon nanotubc (CNT) nanocomposites were manufactured via extrusion molding and injection molding, In order to change the crystallinity, annealing treatment was done for different time span, Crystallization kinetics of PLA was analyzed by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), and it was confirmed that a proper amount of CNT can increase the crystallization rate of PLA. In addition, the presence of CNT significantly accelerates the hydrolytic degradation rate of PLA, however, it decreases with the increase of crystallinity. The reason is that degradation may occur in the PLA/CNT interface easily, and the molecular structure of the composite becomes dense with the increase of crystallinity.

In this study, the possibility of manufacturing a magnesium (Mg) composites reinforced with continuous silicon carbide (SiC) fibers was examined using a liquid pressing process. We fabricated uniformly dispersed SiC fiberAZ91 composites using a liquid phase pressing process. Furthermore, the precipitates were controlled through heat treatment. As a continuous Mg₂Si phase was formed at the interface between the SiC fiber and the AZ91 matrix alloy, the interfacial bonding strength was improved. The tensile strength at room temperature of the prepared composite was 479 MPa, showing excellent mechanical properties.

Disinfection of microorganisms using UV light is widely used in the field of water supply and wastewater treatment plant, In spite of high germicidal effect and relatively clean by-product, UV disinfection has fundamental defeat that is accumulation of fouling materials at the interface of water and lamp sleeve. Non-contact type of UV photoreactor which can avoid this fouling generation was developed and the experimental performance evaluation of the system was carried out in this study. Log inactivation rate of E. coli was selected as a disinfection index. The concentration of E. coli of second clarifier effluent was $8.2{\times}10^1-8.2{\times}10^3$ colony per mL and was well inactivated by the non-contact type of UV photoreactor. Under the UV intensity condition of $2.1-2.5mW/cm^2$, E. coli removal rate was observed in the range of 54 - 95% when the HRT was increased from 10 to 52 seconds. Experimental results showed that log inactivation of E. coli was proportional to UV dosage and $200mJ/cm^2$ of UV dose is expected for the 2.0 log inactivation of E. coli from the second clarifier effluent. Between the two parameters of UV intensity and contact time which are consist of UV dose, UV intensity was 4 times more effective than contact time.

In this study, the effects of $WSi_x$, thickness and fluorine concentration in tungsten polycide gate structure on gate oxide were investigated. As $WSi_x$, thickness increases, gate oxide thickness increases with fluorine incorporation in gate oxide, and time-to-breakdown($T_{BD,50%}$) of oxide decreases. The stress change with $WSi_x$ thickness was also examined. But it is understood that the dominant factor to degrade gate oxide properties is not the stress but the fluorine, incorporated during $WSi_x$ deposition, diffused into $WSiO_2$ after heat treatment. In order to understand the effect of fluorine diffusion into oxidem fluorine ion implanted gates were compared. The thickness variation and $T_{BD,50%}$ of gate oxide is saturated over 600 $\AA$ thickness of $WSi_x$. The TEM and SIMS studies show the microstructure less than 600 $\AA$ thickness is dense and flat in surface. However, over 600$\AA$, the microstructure of $WSi_x$ is divided into two parts: upper porous phase with rugged surface and lower dense phase with smmoth interface. And this upper phase is transformed into oxygen rich crystalline phase after annealing, and the fluorine is captured in this layer. Therefore, the fluorine diffusion into the gate oxide is saturated.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of W substitution on the precipitation behavior of ${\chi}$ and ${\sigma}$ phases in super duplex stainless steel. The ${\chi}$ phase was precipitated at the interface of ferrite / austenite phases and inside the ferrite phase at the initial stage of aging. With an increase in the aging time, the volume fraction of the ${\chi}$ phase increased, and then decreased with the transformation from the ${\chi}$ phase to the ${\sigma}$ phase. The ${\sigma}$ phase was precipitated later than the ${\chi}$ phase, and the volume fraction of x phase increased with the increase in the aging time. The ferrite phase was decomposed into the new austenite (${\gamma}2$) and ${\sigma}$ phases by aging treatment. The decomposition of the ferrite phase into the ${\gamma}2$ and ${\sigma}$ phases was retarded by W substitution for Mo. The volume fraction of the ${\chi}$ phase increased and that of the ${\sigma}$ phase decreased due to W substitution. The ${\chi}$ and ${\sigma}$ phases were intermetallic compounds, which had lower nickel concentration, and higher chromium, molybdenum, and tungsten concentrations. The ${\chi}$ phase has higher molybdenum and tungsten concentrations than those of the ${\sigma}$ phase. The amounts of chromium and nickel in the ${\chi}$ and ${\sigma}$ phases did not change, but these phases have higher concentrations of molybdenum and tungsten due to W substitution for Mo.

The aim of the study is to interpret the distribution of occlusal force by 3-dimensional finite element analysis of ISP(Implant Supported Prosthesis) supported by minimum number of implant to restore the edentulous patients. For this study, the Astra Tech implant system is used. Geometric modeling for 6 and 4 fixture ISP group is performed with respect to the bone, implant and one piece superstructure, respectively. Implants are arbitrarily placed according to the anatomical limit of lower jaw and for the favorable distribution of occlusal force, which is applied at the end of cantilever extension of ISP with 30mm. Element type is tetrahedral for finite element model and the typical mechanical properties, Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio of each material, cortical, cancellous bone and implant material are utilized for the finite element analysis. From this study, we can see the distribution of equivalent stress equal to real situation and speculate the difference in the stress distribution in the whole model and at each implant fixture, From the analysis, the area of maximum stress is distributed on distal contact area between bone and fixture in the crestal bone. The maximum stress is 53MPa at the 0.2mm area from the bone-implant interface in the maximum side for 300N load condition for 4 fixture case, which is slightly less than the stress calculated from allowable strain. This stress has not been deduced to directly cause the loss of crestal bone around implant fixture, but the stress can be much reduced as the old peoples may have lower chewing force. Thus, clinical trial may be performed with this treatment protocol to use 4 fixtured ISP for old patients.

We are developing a portable multipurpose gamma counting and imaging probe that will be useful for many applications in nuclear medicine including radioimmunoguided surgery in the detection and treatment of malignant tumors. Any diagnostic information provided by CT, MRI, PET, SPECT or gamma camera imaging prior to surgery obviously is very important, but current techniques are limited in many instances. To overcome some of these limitations, the portable multipurpose gamma probe is being developed. The gamma probe consists of NaI(Tl) crystal with 1" dia $\times$ 0.5" thick and singlechannel photomultiplier tube (SC-PMT) for counting, and 3" dia $\times$ 0.375" and multichannel photomultiplier tube (MC-PMT) for imaging, nuclear instrument module (NIM), position circuits, interface, and PC. The energy resolution using Tc-99m was measured as 14% and the spatial resolution using 3mm dia green LED was measured as 2.9mm. These priliminary results indicate that the currently developing probe is very promising and could be very useful for many applications in nuclear medicine.
