Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the quality of dental fixed prostheses fabricated by 3DP (three-dimensional printing). Methods: Ten main models were prepared for the study. Ten specimens were printed by 3DP (3DP group). Ten specimens were fabricated by the lost wax technique and casting method to complete the control group (LWC group). The marginal fit was measured for 20 specimens. The measurement of marginal fit was performed using the silicon replica technique. Finally, the marginal fit of 10 specimens from each group was calculated. An independent sample t-test was run to see if the calculated averages for the two groups were mutually significant (α=0.05). Results: According to the experimental results, the mean marginal fit of the 3DP group was 71.9 ㎛, and the LWC group was 55.3 ㎛. The means of the two groups were found to be significantly different (p<0.001) in the results of the independent sample t-test. Conclusion: The marginal fit of fixed dental prostheses produced by 3DP technology was examined with values greater than those fabricated by traditional technology. However, as it appeared to be a value within the range of clinically acceptable range recommended by numerous studies, it was determined that clinical application would be feasible.

One of the most important factors for the clinical success of adhesive posterior restorations is marginal adaptation. This property is very closely related to mechanical properties and to the shrinkage behavior of composite materials. Most of modem composite materials are light-cured. This is why the first part of this lecture will be confined to our recent research on light curing, such as plasma polymerization, LED polymerization and the power of modem halogen lamps. In the second part of the lecture the shrinkage properties such as dimensional shrinkage and shrinkage forces of different light curing materials and during different curing procedures will be discussed. Finally, in the third part of the lecture, marginal adaptation before and after loading in different cavity classes and by using different restorative techniques and curing procedures will be presented. Data will also be given on wear resistance, abrasiveness against opposing cusps and postcuring of composite materials.(omitted)

목적: 본 연구의 목적은 실제 환자에서 디지털 구강스캐너로 모형 없이 제작한 보철물의 변연 및 내면 적합도를 평가하는 것이다. 대상 및 방법: 전향적 임상시험으로 시행한 본 예비 연구는 총 11개의 수복물을 대상으로 하였다. 구강스캐너(TRIOS, 3shape, Copenhagen, Denmark)로 디지털 구강인상을 채득한 후, 캐드 디자인 및 밀링 가공 과정을 통해 전부지르코니아 수복물을 제작하였다. 완성된 지르코니아관을 환자 구강 내에 시적하였고, 레플리카 술식으로 보철물-지대치 복제물을 얻었다. 이를 근원심, 협설 방향으로 잘라 변연오차, 변연간극과 축벽부, 선각부, 교합면부의 내면간극을 측정하였다. 통계처리는 Kruskal-Wallis 검정과 Mann-Whitney U 검정을 이용하여 통계적 유의성을 분석하였다(${\alpha}=.05$). 결과: 복제물을 통한 적합도 분석 결과, 근원심, 협설 절편 사이에는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다(P>.05). 변연간극에 불일치가 있었으며, 변연 오차가 변연간극 보다 컸다(P<.01). 결론: 본 연구의 한계 내에서, 구강스캐너로 모형 없이 제작한 전부지르코니아 수복물의 적합도는 임상적으로 허용할만한 결과를 보였다. 그러나 지르코니아관의 변연부위가 과풍융되는 경향이 있었으므로 주의 깊은 임상 적용 및 추적 연구가 요구된다.

많은 치과 임상가들은 아말감을 치질에 접착시키기 위해서 여러 접착재료를 이용해왔다. 이 런 술식의 장점으로는 미세누출의 감소로 인한 술후과민증의 감소, 변연파절의 감소, 삭제 후 치질의 강화, 적은 유지형태에서의 수복물의 유지등이 제시되어 왔다. 실제로 임상적 상황에서 이러한 술식의 장점을 확인할 필요가 있다. 이런 접착제가 임상적 환경에서 어떠한 잇점을 보이지 않는다면 시간과 비용을 낭비하는 이런 술식을 정당화하지 못할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 73개의 치아를 대상으로 하여 I급 와동과 II급 와동에 접착형과 비접착형 아말감으로 수복하였다. 접착제로는 Fuji I Glass Ionomer luting cement를 이용하였다. 평균 2년 후에 변연적합성을 평가하였으나 접착형 아말감과 비접착형 아말감 사이에 유의한 차이는 없었다.

PURPOSE. The aim of this study was to measure the changes on the marginal and internal adaptation of zirconia based anterior fixed partial dentures after the porcelain firing process. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A total of 34 anterior fixed partial dentures using LAVA CAD/CAM system (3M ESPE, Germany) were applied. Two silicone replicas were obtained: one is obtained before porcelain firing process (initial) and the other is obtained after porcelain firing process (final), followed by the examination under a binocular stereomicroscope. Kruskal Wallis and Wilcoxon Signed Ranks tests were used for the statistical analysis (P<.05). RESULTS. No statistically significant difference was found between initial and final marginal gap values (P>.05). At the internal gap measurements, final marginal area values ($59.54{\mu}m$) were significantly lower than the initial marginal area values ($68.68{\mu}m$)(P<.05). The highest and the lowest internal gap values were observed at the incisal/occlusal area and at the marginal area, respectively. In addition, lower internal gap values were obtained for canines than for central incisors, lateral incisors and premolars at the incisal area (P<.05). CONCLUSION. The firing cycles did not affect the marginal gap of Lava CAD/CAM system, but it is controversial for the internal gap.

Objectives: The aim of the study was to evaluate the 5-year clinical performance of occlusal carious restorations using nanofill and microhybrid composites, in combination with 3-step etch-and-rinse adhesives, in patients who were going to commence orthodontic treatment. Materials and Methods: A total of 118 restorations for occlusal caries were conducted prior to orthodontic treatment. Occlusal restorations were performed both with Filtek Supreme XT (3M ESPE) and Filtek Z250 (3M ESPE) before beginning orthodontic treatment with fixed orthodontic bands. Restorations were clinically evaluated at baseline and at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5-year recalls. Results: None of the microhybrid (Filtek Z250) and nanofill (Filtek Supreme XT) composite restorations was clinically unacceptable with respect to color match, marginal discoloration, wear or loss of anatomical form, recurrent caries, marginal adaptation, or surface texture. A 100% success rate was recorded for both composite materials. There were no statistically significant differences in any of the clinical evaluation criteria between Filtek Z250 and Filtek Supreme XT restorations for each evaluation period. Conclusions: The composite restorations showed promising clinical results relating to color matching, marginal discoloration, wear or loss of anatomical form, recurrent caries, marginal adaptation, and surface texture at the end of the 5-year evaluation period.

Objectives: Natural extracts have been investigated as a biomimetic strategy to mechanically strengthen the collagen network and control the biodegradation of extracellular matrix. This study evaluated the effect of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) on abfraction lesions prior to the composite resin. Materials and Methods: The sample consisted of 30 patients (aged between 28 and 60 years) with abfraction lesions located in 2 homologous premolars. The teeth were randomly assigned according to dentin treatment: 0.02% EGCG solution or distilled water (control). After enamel acid etching, the solutions were applied immediately for 1 minute. The teeth were restored with Universal Adhesive (3M) and Filtek Z350 XT (3M). Analyzes were done by 2 independent examiners using modified USPHS (retention, secondary caries, marginal adaptation, and postoperative sensitivity) and photographic (color, marginal pigmentation, and anatomical form) criteria at baseline (7 days) and final (18 months). The data analysis used Friedman and Wilcoxon signed-rank tests (α = 0.05). Results: At baseline, all restorations were evaluated as alpha for all criteria. After 18 months, restorations were evaluated as alpha for secondary caries, color, and marginal pigmentation. There was significant difference between baseline and 18 months (p = 0.009) for marginal adaptation and postoperative sensitivity (p = 0.029), but no significant difference were verified between treatments (p = 0.433). The EGCG group had a restoration retention rate of 93.3%, while the control group had 96.7%. Conclusions: The application of EGCG solution on abfraction lesions did not significantly influence the survival of the restorations based on clinical and photographic criteria.

Statement of problem. Targis/Vectris restorations provide excellent esthetics. Marginal accuracy is significantly influenced by the preparation design. There were no studies to examine the effect of preparation design on the marginal discrepancy and fracture strength of Targis / Vectris crowns. Purpose. This study evaluated the marginal accuracy before and after cementation, and the fracture strength of FRC/Ceromer(Targis / Vectris) crowns according to different preparation design. Material and method. Three metal dies with different convergence angles($6^{\circ},\;10^{\circ},\;15^{\circ}$) were prepared. Total 30 (10 for each angle) Targis/Vectris crowns were made. The restorations were evaluated for adaptation of the margin before and after cementation, then were compressively loaded to failure. Fracture surfaces of the crowns were examined using a SEM. Results. The mean marginal gap was $49{\yen}m\;for6^{\circ},\;55{\S}>for\;10^{\circ}\;and\;70{\S}>for\;15^{\circ}$ and in clinically acceptable level. The mean marginal gap increased significantly after cementation. The increasing amount during cementation was the largest in the $6^{\circ}$ group. The crowns on 60 convergence angle had a significantly higher fracture strength than the crowns on $15^{\circ}$ angle. Mean fracture strength of total crowns regardless of convergence angle was 1390 N, which was higher than all-ceramic crowns. SEM observation showed two-mode fracture pattern. Conclusion. From the results of this study, all of the FRC/Ceromer crowns had clinically acceptable marginal accuracy and could withstand the bite force. Moreover, less convergent angle than all-ceramic crown might be recommended for preparation procedure.

목적: 본 연구의 목적은 지대치 삭제의 정확도와 metal coping의 변연적합도와의 상관관계를 알아보는 데 있다. 이를 통해, 세 가지 다른 제작 방식 (주조, milling, 기법)이 이 상관관계에 미치는 영향을 비교해 보고자 한다. 재료 및 방법: 두 개의 master medel을 서로 다른 방식으로 제작하였다; 첫 번째 모델은 치과의사에 의해 deep chamfer margin을 가지도록 지대치 삭제된 것이고, 두 번째 모델은 3-D designing software program을 이용하여 동일한 삭제원칙에 따라 제작되었다. 각각의 모델에 대하여 세 가지 제작 방식으로 코발트-크롬 코핑을 12개씩 제작하여, 총 72개의 시편을 얻었다. 각 시편을 master model상에 적합시키고 공초점 레이저 주사 현미경으로 변연적합도를 측정하였다. 결과: SLS system (P=.0231)과 주조방식(P<.0001)에서는 computer designed model이 hand prepared model에 비하여 유의하게 우수한 변연적합도를 보였다. 그러나 milling group에서는 두 모델 간에 유의한 차이를 나타내지 않았다(P=.9962). 결론: 본 연구에 한하여, 지대치 삭제의 정확도가 금속 코핑의 변연적합도에 미치는 영향은 그 제작 방식에 따라 달랐다. 제작 방식에 따른 변연적 합도는 SLS system이 가장 우수하였고 지대치 삭제의 정확도에 의해 영향을 받았다. 한편, milling 방식은 세 가지 방식 중 가장 큰 변연 격차를 나타내었으며 지대치 삭제의 정확도에 영향을 받지 않았다.
