The effect of thermocycling and surface finishing on the marginal fidelity of copings for a metal ceramic crown was examined. Methods for minimizing the loss of marginal fidelity were evaluated. The results were as follows ; 1. Thermocycling of ceramic metal copings resulted in increased marginal gap. 2. The greatest marginal gap occurred during the first thermocycling of the copings. 3. No additional distortion of marginal fidelity occurred when surface finishing and second thermocycling were completed after initial thermocycling. 4. The gap increases according to various treatment methods showed group 1 to be the highest values. 5. There was no significant difference between group 2 and group 3(p>0.05) 6. There was significant difference between group 1 and group 2, 3(p<0.05). 7. There was no significant difference among the measurement sites.

Statement of problem: The use of Ceromer is increasing in dentistry. But, the research of Ceromer has not been conducted much. Purpose : This study was to evaluate the marginal fidelity and internal adaptation according to marginal position. Materials and Methods: In this study 60 resin crowns were fabricated. The measurements of the marginal fidelity were carried out using stereomicroscope $SZ-40^{(R)}$ (Olympus, Japan) and the measurements of fracture strength were done using Instron $8871^{(R)}$ (Instron Co., U.S.A.) at a cross head speed of 1mm/min. All of the measurements were statistically analyzed by ANOVA test, multiple range test and Weibull analysis. Statistical significance was set in advance at the probability level of less than 0.05. All of the measurements were analyzed with Window $SPSS^{(R)}$ Version 10.0 soft ware for the personal computer. Results : 1. There were no statistical differences of the marginal fidelity between $Targis^{(R)}$ and $Tescera^{(R)}$, but difference between these two and $BelleGlass^{(R)}$ according to materials. 2. There were no statistical differences of the marginal fidelity between no fiber group and fiber group. There were no interactions between each maerial and with/without fiber group in the marginal fidelity 3. There were statistical differences of the fracture strength between $Tescera^{(R)}$ and $BelleGlass^{(R)}$ but no statistical differences of the fracture strength between $Targis^{(R)}$ and $Tescera^{(R)}$, $Targis^{(R)}$ and $BelleGlass^{(R)}$ according to materials. 4 There were statistical differences of the fracture strength between no fiber group and fiber group. There were no interactions between each material and with/without fiber group in the fracture strength. 5. When comparing the fracture surface, no fiber group showed the resin which were fractured at the labial surface and separated from the adhesion surface. In fiber group, the fractures took a place in resin compartments. Conclusion. The marginal fidelity and the fracture strength were clinically acceptable. From these results, $Targis^{(R)}$ and $Tescera^{(R)}$ were superior than $BelleGlass^{(R)}$ in the marginal fidelity But, when applying these resin crowns in clinic, more careful consideration is needed and further study is recommended.

In-Ceram system is one of contemporary esthetic all ceramic restorations and has relatively high flexural strength. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the marginal fidelity according to type of resin cement and measuring position, and to evaluate fracture strength according to type of resin cement. In this study, twenty seven In-Ceram crowns were fabricated on the metal master die of prepared maxillary right central incisor and devided into three groups. All specimens were cemented with Panavia 21 (group PV), Super-bond (group SB) and Lute-it (group LI) on the metal master die. After cementation, specimens were measured marginal gap between the margin of the In-Ceram crown and the finishing line of metal master die by using a stereomicroscope (SZ-ST, Olympus, Japan). Marginal gaps were recorded at the labial, lingual, mesial and distal measuring points on the metal master die. For the mesurement of fracture strength, lingual surfaces of cemented specimens were loaded at a distance of 1mm from incisal edge by using the Autograph S-2000 (Shimadzu, Japan). The results of marginal fidelity and fracture strength were statistically analyzed with the SPSS version 8.0 programs. The results of this study were as follows: 1. In comparison of marginal fidelity according to the measuring points, there was no significant difference. 2. The marginal fidelity according to the type of resin cement was decreased in order of group $LI\;(63.75{\mu}m),\;SB\;(77.78{\mu}m),\;PV\;(86.53{\mu}m)$, and there was significant difference between group LI and PV (p<0.05). 3. The fracture strength according to the type of resin cement was showed descending order of group $LI\;(60.00kg/cm^2),\;SB\;(56.80kg/cm^2),\;PV\;(56.11kg/m^2)$, but there was no significant difference.

Purpose: As the demand and importance of aesthetic aspects in dental treatment become higher, much attention is paid to materials used for dental prostheses. Thus, the marginal fidelity of most-commonly used alloy, IPS - Empress and ZrO2 ceramic is compared. Methods: The alloy core made by casting, IPS - Empress core made by pressing and ZrO2 ceramic core made by CAD/CAM are used to make 10 samples respectively. For each core, three points were measures and the optical microscope (Axio Imager.Alm,Zeiss co., Oberkochen, Germany) was used to observe the cores with a magnification of 100. Results: As for alloy, IPS - Empress and ZrO2 ceramic, the average and deviation of their marginal distance are $29.91\;{\pm}11.93{\mu}m$ for alloy, $33.45\;{\pm}8.61{\mu}m$ for IPS - Empress, and $31.55\;{\pm}9.85{\mu}m$ for ZrO2. The one-way ANOVA test was conducted to compare them. However, there was no statistically significant difference among them. Conclusion: The study on marginal fidelity of alloy, IPS - Empress, and ZrO2 ceramic shows they have no marginal fidelity problem clinically. Therefore, if a system is selected based on the patient's condition or treatment method, there will be no problem.

Novel methods producing supplementary and prosthetic material by cutting or discharge processing via computer design have been proposed as alternatives for traditional casting methods and are being utilized for commercial purposes. The CAD/CAM system used in dentistry can be classified into three-dimensional input of target values, restoration design, and material processing. The marginal fidelity in production of In-Ceram core has important clinical implications and is a key consideration issue in CAD/CAM production as well. Through this research, the author arrived at the following conclusion aaer conducting comparison analysis of marginal fidelities between the In-Ceram core produced via CAD/CAM and that produced through the traditional method ; 1. In the cases of mesial, distal, and lingual margins, the core margins via CAD/CAM produced lower values than those via the traditional method, but the differences were found to be statistically insignificant. 2. In the case of labial flange, the core margins via CAD/CAM produced lower values than those via the traditional method and the differences were found to be statistically significant. (p<0.05) 3. In comparision with overall marginal fidelity, the core margins via CAD/CAM produced lower values than those via the traditional method, but the differences were found to be statistically insignificant. 4. Among the core margins produced via the traditional method did not have statistically significant differences but fir those produced via CAD/CAM had statistically significant differences between labial and lingual sides and between labial and mesial sides. (p <0.05).

Fit of the restoration and its cementation procedure is crucial to both its short and long term prognosis. Marginal fit is affected by many variables during the fabrication process. These variables, being intrinsic properties of the materials or the clinical technique used, can cause changes in the size and shape of the definitive restoration. Even if all variables are controlled carefully, the seating of a restoration can still be affected due to insufficient space for the luting agent. The use of die spacer can reduce the elevation of a cast restoration of a prepared tooth, decreased seating time, improve the outflow of excess cement, and lower the seating forces. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the marginal fidelity according to die spacer application times and measurement site. Casting alloys were prepared and fabricated using non-precious metal at $950^{\circ}C$. Specimens are divided into four groups: I(die spacer painted casting for wax pattern), II(die spacer non painted casting for wax pattern). The specimens were cut and polished for marginal gap observation. The marginal gap was observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Recently, various all-ceramic crowns fabricated with CAD/CAM systems have come into wide use in dental clinic. However, there are only few domestic studies on CAD/CAM restorations. PURPOSE: Purpose of this study was to compare the fidelity (absolute marginal discrepancy and internal gap) between various cores fabricated with different CAD/CAM systems (Procera system, Lava system, Cerec inLab system) and conventional metal cast core. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 10 cores per each system were fabricated. The absolute marginal discrepancies were measured using measuring microscope and digital counter. The internal gaps were calculated using a silicone paste. The results were statistically analyzed using the one-way ANOVA test and Tukey's HSD test. RESULTS: Within the limits of this study the results were as follows. 1. The absolute marginal discrepancies were $32.5{\pm}3.7\;{\mu}m$ for metal cast core, $72.2{\pm}7.0\;{\mu}m$ for Procera core, $40.8{\pm}5.4\;{\mu}m$ for Lava core, and $55.3{\pm}8.7\;{\mu}m$ for Cerec inLab core. The internal gaps were $38.4{\pm}5.7\;{\mu}m$ for metal cast core, $71.4{\pm}5.3\;{\mu}m$ for Procera core, $45.9{\pm}7.3\;{\mu}m$ for Lava core, and $51.8{\pm}6.2\;{\mu}m$ for Cerec inLab core. 2. The fidelity of metal cast core showed the smallest gaps, followed by Lava core, Cerec inLab core, and Procera core. CONCLUSION: The fidelities of 4 core groups were all within the clinically acceptable range ($120\;{\mu}m$).

Optimal Pressable Ceramic is one of the all-ceramic restorations with a shaded translucent pressed core and layering porcelains. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the marginal fidelity according to margin types and measurement sites, and to evaluate fracture strength according to margin types. Twenty seven OPC crowns made according to 3 types of cervical finishing lines were used in this study. Marginal gaps were measured before and after cementation. A Steromicroscope(SZ-ST(R), Olympus, Japan) was used to measure the space between the margin of OPC crown and the finishing line of metal model. Marginal gaps were measured at the labial, mesial, lingual and distal site, which were demonstrated in advance. Fracture strength testing was carried out using an Instron(Model M100EC, Mecmesin, England) at a cross head speed of 5 mm/min. All crowns were loaded until catastrophic failures occurred. The result were as follow: 1. In comparison according to variable margin before cementation, the marginal gap were increased in chamfer margin($47.50{\pm}18.39{\mu}m$), $120^{\circ}$shoulder margin ($55.21{\pm}14.4{\mu}m$) and $90^{\circ}$shoulder margin($71.18{\pm}13.30{\mu}m$) in ascending order, and there were significant differences between chamfer margin and $90^{\circ}$shoulder margin, $120^{\circ}$shoulder margin and between $120^{\circ}$shoulder margin and $90^{\circ}$shoulder margin respectively(p<0.05). 2. In comparison according to variable margin after cementation, the gap discrepancies were increased in chamfer margin($60.78{\pm}30.37{\mu}m$), $120^{\circ}$shoulder margin($66.67{\pm}11.18{\mu}m$) and $90^{\circ}$shoulder margin($85.78{\pm}17.23{\mu}m$) in ascending order, but there was significant difference only between chamfer margin and $90^{\circ}$shoulder margin(p<0.05). 3. Labio-lingual points showed a better marginal fidelity than that of proximal point(p<0.05). 4. Chamfer margin($48.76{\pm}8.45kgf$) showed higher fracture strength than $120^{\circ}$ shoulder margin($40.57{\pm}7.90kgf$) and $90^{\circ}$ shoulder margin(32.7.90kgf) (p<0.05), but there was significant difference only between chamfer margin and $90^{\circ}$ shoulder margin(p<0.05).

연구 목적: 본 연구는 지르코니아 코핑의 다양한 디자인과 시멘트 종류에 따른 지르코니아 도재관의 파절 저항성과 변연 적합도를 평가하고자 하였다. 연구 재료 및 방법: CAD/CAM system (Everest, KAVO Dental GmbH, Biberach, Germany)을 이용하여, 다양한 두께를 가진 지르코니아 코핑을 디자인하고 제작하였다. 80개의 코핑을 디자인에 따라 20개씩 4개의 그룹으로 분류하였으며, 각 그룹은 다시 시멘트 종류에 따라 시편을 10개씩 나누어 2개의 소그룹으로 분류하였다. Group I은 전체적으로 균일하게 0.3 mm로, group II는 협면과 협측 교합면은 0.3 mm, 설면과 설측 교합면을 0.6 mm, group III은전체0.6 mm 균일하게, Group IV는 협면과 협측 교합면은 0.6 mm 설면과 설측 교합면을 1.0 mm로 디자인 하였다. Putty index를 이용해 같은 크기와 형태의 지르코니아 도재관을 축성 후, 완성하였다. 미세 경도측정기의 현미경 (Matsuzawa, MXT-70, Japan)으로 도재관의 변연 적합도를 측정하였고, 만능시험기 (Z020, Zwick, Germany)를 이용하여 cross-head speed를 1 mm/min로 도재관이 파절될 때까지 수직 하중을 가해 파절 저항성을 측정하였다. One-way ANOVA와 two-way ANOVA 를 이용해 그 결과를 비교 분석 하였으며, 사후 검정으로 Duncan's multiple range test ($\alpha$=0.05)를 사용하였다. 결과:1. 코핑 디자인에 따른 변연적합성은 유의한 차이가 있었다 (P<.05). 2. 임시합착제 (Cavitec$^{(R)}$)로 합착한 군에서 코핑 디자인에 따른 지르코니아 도재관의 파절강도는 유의한 차이가 있었다 (P<.05). 3. 영구접착제 (Panavia-$F^{(R)}$)로 접착한 군에서 코핑 디자인에 따른 지르코니아 도재관의 파절강도는 통계학적인 유의차가 없었다 (P>.05). 4. 시멘트의 종류에 따른 동일한 디자인사이에서의 파절강도는 group I과 group II에서 Panavia-F 접착군이 Cavitec$^{(R)}$ 접착군보다 통계학적으로 유의성 있게 높았다 (P<.05). 5. 도재관의 파절 양상은 지르코니아 코핑의 디자인에 따른 차이는 없었으며, 시멘트의 종류에 따라 Cavitec$^{(R)}$ 접착군에서는 시편이 완전 분리되는 전부 파절, Panavia-$F^{(R)}$ 접착군에서는 전장 도재층에서만 파절되는 부분파절이 주로 나타났다. 결론: 제한된 결과이기는 하나 심미성을 위해 가시면을 얇게 하고 강도를 위해 비가시면의 지르코니아 코핑을 두껍게 하는, 즉 기능에 따라 두께를 달리 하는 세라믹 하부구조 디자인이 임상에서 선택적으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료되었다.

Poor marginal fidelity resulting in a large marginal gap increases plaque accumulation, gingival inflammation and dental caries. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the marginal fit of three different cervical finishing methods of prepared teeth. A stereomicroscope was used to measure the space between the margin of restoration and the finishing line of prepared tooth. The results were statistically analyzed using the ANOVA and Multiple Range Test(Tukey's HSD). The results were as follows : 1. There were no significant differences concerning the types of tooth and positon (P>0.05), whereas the differences were statistically significant in case of cervical finishing methods (P<0.05). 2. There were statistically significant differences between before and after cementation (P<0.05). 3. In comparison according to variable margins after cementation, the gap discrepancies were increased in $130^{\circ}$ shoulder margin, chamfer margin and $90^{\circ}$ shoulder margin in ascending order, and there were significant differences between $90^{\circ}$ shoulder margin and chamfer, $130^{\circ}$ shoulder margin 4. In comparison according to variable margins, the gap discrepancies were increased in chamfer margin, $130^{\circ}$ shoulder margin and $90^{\circ}$ shoulder margin in ascending order, and there were significant differences between $90^{\circ}$ shoulder margin and chamfer, $130^{\circ}$ shoulder margin. 5. This study demonstrated a better marginal fit with all-ceramic crowns fabricated on chamfer and $130^{\circ}$ shoulder margin compared with $90^{\circ}$ shoulder margin.
