Statement of Problem: To conduct a successful function of implant prosthesis in oral cavity for a long time, it is important that not only structure materials must have the biocompatibility, but also the prosthesis must be designed for the stress, which is occurred in occlusion, to scatter adequately within the limitation of alveolar bone around implant and bio-capacity of load support. Now implant which is used in clinical part has a very various shapes, recently the fixture that has tapered form of internal connection is often selected. However the stress analysis of fixtures still requires more studies. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to stress analysis of the implant prosthesis according to the different implant systems using finite element method. Material and methods: This study we make the finite element models that three type implant fixture ; $Br{\aa}nemark$, Camlog, Frialit-2 were placed in the area of mandibular first premolar and prosthesis fabricated, which we compared with stress distribution using the finite element analysis under two loading condition. Conclusion: The conclusions were as follows: 1. In all implant system, oblique loading of maximum Von mises stress of implant, alveolar bone and crown is higher than vertical loading of those. 2. Regardless of loading conditions and the type of system. cortical bone which contacts with implant fixture top area has high stress, and cancellous bone has a little stress. 3. Under the vertical loading, maximum Von mises stress of $Br{\aa}nemark$ system with external connection type and tapered form is lower than Camlog and Frialit-2 system with internal connection type and tapered form, but under oblique loading Camlog and Frialit-2 system is lower than $Br{\aa}nemark$ system.

PURPOSE. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between microleakage and screw loosening at different types of implant-abutment connections and/or geometries measuring the torque values before and after the leakage tests. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Three different abutment types (Intenal hex titanium, internal hex zirconium, morse tapered titanium) with different geometries were connected to its own implant fixture. All the abutments were tightened with a standard torque value then the composition was connected to the modified fluid filtration system. After the measurements of leakage removal torque values were re-measured. Kruskal-wallis test was performed for non-parametric and one-way ANOVA was performed for parametric data. The correlation was evaluated using Spearman Correlation Test (${\alpha}=0.05$). RESULTS. Significantly higher microleakage was found at the connection of implant-internal hex zirconium abutment. Observed mean torque value loss was also significantly higher than other connection geometries. Spearman tests revealed a significant correlation between microleakage and screw loosening. CONCLUSION. Microleakage may provoke screw loosening. Removing torque values rationally decrease with the increase of microleakage.

임플란트 고정체-지대주 결합구조체의 형태에 따른 교합부하의 반응이 다양하여 본 연구에서는 하중위치 및 결합구조체 접촉 비율에 따라 3단 계단형 결합구조체와 경사형에서 어떠한 차이가 있는 지를 3차원 유한요소분석을 시행하였다. 2종의 임플란트-지대주 결합 구조체에 연결된 상부 치관을 제작하여 각 치관에 설정된 하중위치에 200 N의 하중을 부여하였다. 임플란트 중심 부위에서 하중조건이 멀어질수록 피질골정에 가해지는 응력이 증가되기에 하중조건은 응력발생에 영향을 미치는 주요 요소이며 다음으로 결합구조형태에도 영향을 받았다. 또한 수직 하중에 비해 빗금 경사 하중이 부여된 경우 계단형은 경사형에 비해 유리한 응력 분포를 보였다. 그리고 지대주 결합구조체가 고정체의 내벽에 대해 접촉이 많아 질수록 골질에 대한 응력분산이 유리한 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 고정체 폭경에서 벗어난 빗김 수직 및 경사 하중은 결합구조체의 종류와 관계없이 피질골정에 응력을 집중시키므로 저작기능시 교합접촉면을 고정체의 폭경 내에 위치하도록 하는 것이 생체역학적으로 바람직 할 것으로 사료되었다.

PURPOSE. The aim of this study was to compare the passivity of implant superstructures by assessing the strain development around the internal tapered connection implants with strain gauges. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A polyurethane resin block in which two implants were embedded served as a measurement model. Two groups of implant restorations utilized cement-retained design and internal surface of the first group was adjusted until premature contact between the restoration and the abutment completely disappeared. In the second group, only nodules detectable to the naked eye were removed. The third group employed screw-retained design and specimens were generated by computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing system (n=10). Four strain gauges were fixed on the measurement model mesially and distally to the implants. The strains developed in each strain gauge were recorded during fixation of specimens. To compare the difference among groups, repeated measures 2-factor analysis was performed at a level of significance of ${\alpha}$=.05. RESULTS. The absolute strain values were measured to analyze the magnitude of strain. The mean absolute strain value ranged from 29.53 to 412.94 ${\mu}m/m$ at the different strain gauge locations. According to the result of overall comparison, the cement-retained prosthesis groups exhibited significant difference. No significant difference was detected between milled screw-retained prostheses group and cement-retained prosthesis groups. CONCLUSION. Within the limitations of the study, it was concluded that the cement-retained designs do not always exhibit lower levels of stress than screw-retained designs. The internal adjustment of a cement-retained implant restoration is essential to achieve passive fit.

P.E.B(Pre-Engineering Building) 시스템은 휨모멘트의 크기에따라 부재형상을 최적화한 변단면부재로 설계 사용하는 경제적인 시스템을 의미한다. 이러한 P.E.B 시스템에서 변단면부재의 접합은 일반 철골접합인 마찰접합이 어렵기 때문에 현장조립이 간편한 엔드플레이트 접합이 사용되고 있다. 지압형 인장접합인 엔드플레이트 접합방식은 국내 P.E.B 시스템의 가장 일반적인 접합방식이며, 이미 그 안정성이 안전하다고 판명되었다. 그러나 이러한 엔드플레이트 접합부의 현장볼트 체결시공에 있어서 엔드플레이트와 변단면보 또는 리브의 용접에 의한 열변형 등으로 인해 엔드플레이트의 수직불량이 발생하여 현장에서 설치된 접합부의 벌어짐 현상이 관측되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 엔드플레이트 초기접합 결함(간격)을 실험변수로 하여 휨모멘트를 받는 엔드플레이트 접합부의 볼트에 대한 허용내력을 조사하여 구조안정성 검토를 수행하였다.

PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the resistance to deformation under static overloading by measuring yield and fracture strength, and to analyze the failure characteristics of implant assemblies made of different titanium grades and connections. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Six groups of implant assemblies were fabricated according to ISO 14801 (n=10). These consisted of the combinations of 3 platform connections (external, internal, and morse tapered) and 2 materials (titanium grade 2 and titanium grade 4). Yield strength and fracture strength were evaluated with a computer-controlled Universal Testing Machine, and failed implant assemblies were classified and analyzed by optical microscopy. The data were analyzed using the One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Student's t-test with the level of significance at P=.05. RESULTS. The group $IT4_S$ had the significantly highest values and group IT2 the lowest, for both yield strength and fracture strength. Groups $IT4_N$ and ET4 had similar yield and fracture strengths despite having different connection designs. Group MT2 and group IT2 had significant differences in yield and fracture strength although they were made by the same material as titanium grade 2. The implant system of the similar fixture-abutment interfaces and the same materials showed the similar characteristics of deformation. CONCLUSION. A longer internal connection and titanium grade 4 of the implant system is advantageous for static overloading condition. However, it is not only the connection design that affects the stability. The strength of the titanium grade as material is also important since it affects the implant stability. When using the implant system made of titanium grade 2, a larger diameter fixture should be selected in order to provide enough strength to withstand overloading.

Statement of problem. One of the common problems of dental implant prosthesis is the loosening of the screw that connects each component, and this problem is more common in single implant-supported prostheses with external connection, and in molars. Purpose. The purposes of this study were: (1) to compare the initial abutment screw detorque values of the six different implant-abutment interface designs, (2) to compare the detorque values of the six different implant-abutment interface designs after cyclic loading, (3) to compare the detorque values of regular and wide diameter implants and (4) to compare the initial detorque values with the detorque values after cyclic loading. Material and methods. Six different implant-abutment connection systems were used. The cement retained abutment and titanium screw of each system were assembled and tightened to 32Ncm with digital torque gauge. After 10 minutes, initial detorque values were measured. The custom titanium crown were cemented temporarily and a cyclic sine curve load(20 to 320N, 14Hz) was applied. The detorque values were measured after cyclic loading of one million times by loading machine. One-way ANOVA test, scheffe’s test and Mann-Whitney U test were used. Results. The results were as follows : 1. The initial detorque values of six different implant-abutment connections were not significantly different(p>0.05). 2. The detorque values after one million dynamic cyclic loading were significantly different (p<0.05). 3. The SS-II regular and wide implant both recorded the higher detorque values than other groups after cyclic loading(p<0.05). 4. Of the wide implants, the initial detorque values of Avana Self Tapping Implant, MIS and Tapered Screw Vent, and the detorque values of MIS implant after cyclic loading were higher than their regular counterparts(p<0.05). 5. After cyclic loading, SS-II regular and wide implants showed higher detorque values than before(p<0.05).
