치아 상실에 이어 심각한 치조골 소실을 보이는 무치악 환자들은 전통적인 방식의 총의치를 사용하는데 어려움이 많다. 이러한 문제를 보완할 수 있도록 임플란트를 이용한 피개의치가 사용되고 있다. SFI-bar$^{(R)}$는 진료실에서 직접 조정이 가능한 기성품으로 복잡한 기공과정을 필요로 하는 기존의 바 시스템보다 간결하여 시간과 비용을 절감할 수 있다. 첫 번째 증례는 55세 남자 환자로 기존 하악 임플란트-지지 피개의치가 파절되었다는 주소로 내원하였고 내구성이 있으며 통증이 없는 의치를 원하였다. 파절된 Locator$^{(R)}$ 어태치먼트를 제거 후 바를 이용한 피개의치로 치료하였다. 두 번째 증례는 파킨슨병을 앓고 있는 77세 여자 환자로 하악 치조골이 심각하게 흡수되어 의치가 자주 탈락한다는 주소로 내원하였고 통증이 없고 유지력이 있는 의치를 원하였다. 하악 전치부에 두개의 임플란트를 식립한 후 임플란트에 연결된 어댑터에 바를 연결하였다. 그 후 바에 맞는 여성부를 새로운 의치에 장착하여 치료하였다. 2년의 추적 관찰 결과 상기 환자 모두 심미적, 기능적으로 만족할만한 결과를 보였으므로 증례를 보고하고자 한다.

Objectives : To compare jaw bone density of young adults (control group) and post-menopausal women(experimental group) in periapical and panoramic film. Materials and Methods : The bone mineral density values of lumbar and femur were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry(DEXA) and T scores of lumbar were obtained. T scores were classified into 3 group (T<-2.5, $-2.5{\leqq}T<-1$, $-1{\leqq}T$). Radiographic densities of alveolar bones were measured from interdental bones of premolar, molar areas in the maxilla and mandible and expressed into copper step wedge thickness by Scion $Image^{(R)}$ program. We considered these values of step wedge thickness as bone density of alveolar bone. Panorama mandibular index(PMI) was calculated by the method that the height of the inferior cortex of the mandible was divided by the height from the lower border of the mandible to the superior edge of the mental foramen. Bone density of alveolar bone and PMI were analysed statistically. Results : There were significant differences in bone mineral density of lumbar and femoral neck between control and experimental groups. There were also significant differences in bone density of premolar and molar area of jaw between control and experimental groups by MANOVA test. When considered lumbar T variables, there was only difference in interdental bone density of maxillary molar area between control and experimental group, but there was interaction. Interdental bone density of experimental group was appeared higher in $-1{\leqq}T$ group and lower in T<-2.5 group than control group. There was significant difference in PMI between control and experimental groups, but there was also inter action, thus, PMI of experimental group was appeared higher in $-1{\leqq}T$ group and lower in T<-2.5 group than control group. Conclusion : There were significant differences of alveolar density and cortical bone thickness between young men and post-menopausal women in periapical and panoramic film. These differences were dependent on lumbar T.

The purpose of this study was to compare the shape of root canal after instrumentation with some engine driven NiTi files. Thirty narrow and curved canals(15-35 degree) of mesial canals of extracted human mandibular first molars were divided into three groups. Group 1: After radicular access with Gates Glidden drill, apical shaping using step back method with Flexo file Group 2: After radicular access with Gates Glidden drill, apical shaping with Profile .04 Group 3: Canal shaping with GT file and Profile .04. Using modified Bramante technique, the root was sectioned at 2 mm from apical foramen, height of curvature, 2 mm from canal orifice. Canal centering ratio, amount of transport, amount of dentin removed, shape of canal were measured and statistical analysis is done using SPSS Program V 7.5. The results were as follows: 1. Canal centering ratio of group 3 was the lowest at coronal part, but there was no statistical difference. Centering ratio of group 2 was the lowest at curve part, and there was statistical difference between group 1(P<0.05). Centering ratio of group 2 was the lowest at apical part, but there was no statistic difference. 2. Amount of transport of group 3 was the lowest at coronal part, but there was no statistical difference. Amount of transport of group 2 was the lowest at curve part, and there was statistical difference between group 1(P<0.05). Amount of transport of group 3 was the lowest at apical part, and there was statistical difference between group 1 and group 2, group 1 and group 3(P<0.05). 3. Amount of dentin removed of group 3 was the lowest at coronal part, bur there was no statistical difference. Amount of dentin removed of group 2 was the lowest at curve part, but there was no statistical difference. Amount of dentin removed or group 2 was the lowest at apical part, and there was statistical difference between group 1 and group 2, group 1 and group 3(P<0.05). 4. The shape of the canals after instrumentation varied among the groups. The majority of canals at coronal and curve part for group 1 were round in shape(7 in 10), those at apical part were oval(8 in 10). The majority of canals at coronal part for group 2 were round in shape(7 in 10) and there was no difference in the number of shape at other part. There was no difference in the number of shape at every part for group 3. As above results, NiTi rotary instrumentation showed a trend to remain more centered in the canal than SS file instrumentation. At using NiTi file, coronal shaping with Gates Glidden drill was not statistically different from shaping with GT file. But shaping with GT file showed tapered canals, so it may be said that shaping with GT file is a safe and valuable instrumentation method.

이 연구의 목적은 네 종류 file systems의 중심유지능과 근관성형 전후의 상아질 삭제량을 비교하는 것이다. 10-20도의 만곡을 갖는 발거된 20개의 하악 제1대구치의 근심근관(총 40개의 근관)을 근관성형 전에 X선 미세단층촬영 스캐너를 이용하여 스캔하였다. 제 1군은 근관부를 넓힌 후 stainless steel K-Flexofile을 사용하여 step-back technique으로 근관성형하였고, 나머지 군들은 각 제조사의 추천대로 ProFile system (2군), ProTaper system (3군), K3 system (4군)을 사용하여 crown-down technique으로 근관성형하였다. 모든 근관의 근단부 기구조작은 #25 크기까지 시행하였고 근관성형 후 스캔하였다. 3차원 영상 소프트웨어로 근관성형 전후의 스캔된 이미지들을 재구성하여 근관의 전체적 부피 변화를 측정하였다. 또한, 근단공으로부티 1, 3, 5, 7 mm되는 지점의 근관 횡단면을 비교하여 근관성형 전후의 단면적 변화와 중심변위율을 산출하였다. 그 결과, ProTaper와 K3가 다른 file systems보다 상아질을 더 많이 삭제하는 경향을 보였고 모든 실험군에서 중심 변위율은 근단공으로부터 3 mm 지점에서 가장 낮은 수치를 나타냈으며, 3 mm 지점을 제외하고는 ProTaper가 다른 file systems보다 중심유지능이 떨어지는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다 (P < 0.05).
