PURPOSE. The objective of this study was to evaluate fracture strength of collarless metal-ceramic FPDs according to their metal coping designs. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Four different facial margin design groups were investigated. Group A was a coping with a thin facial metal collar, group B was a collarless coping with its facial metal to the shoulder, group C was a collarless coping with its facial metal 1 mm short of the shoulder, and group D was a collarless coping with its facial metal 2 mm short of the shoulder. Fifteen 3-unit collarless metal-ceramic FPDs were fabricated in each group. Finished FPDs were cemented to PBT (Polybutylene terephthalate) dies with resin cement. The fracture strength test was carried out using universal testing machine (Instron 4465, Instron Co., Norwood MA, USA) at a cross head speed of 0.5 mm/min. Aluminum foil folded to about 1 mm of thickness was inserted between the plunger tip and the incisal edge of the pontic. Vertical load was applied until catastrophic porcelain fracture occurred. RESULTS. The greater the bulk of unsupported facial shoulder porcelain was, the lower the fracture strength became. However, there were no significant differences between experimental groups (P > .05). CONCLUSION. All groups of collarless metal-ceramic FPDs had higher fracture strength than maximum incisive biting force. Modified collarless metal-ceramic FPD can be an alternative to all-ceramic FPDs in clinical situations.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of finish line design, amount of incisal reduction, and loading condition on the stress distribution in anterior all-ceramic crowns. Three-dimensional finite element models of an incisor all-ceramic crown with 3 different finish line designs : 1) shoulder with sharp line angle 2) shoulder with rounded line angle 3) chamfer : and 2 different incisal reductions : 2mm and 4mm were developed. 300 N force with the direction of 45 degree to the long axis of the tooth was applied at 3 different positions : A) incisal 1/3, B) incisal edge, C) cervical 1/5. Stresses developed in ceramic and cement were analyzed using three-dimensional finite element method. The results were as follows : 1. Stresses were concentrated in the margin region, which were primarily compressive in the labial and tensile in the lingual. 2. Stresses were larger in the area near line angle than on the crown surface of the margin region. In case of shoulder with sharp line angle, stresses were highly concentrated in the porcelain near line angle. 3. At the interface between porcelain and cement and at the porcelain above the margin on crown surface, stresses were the highest in chamfer, and decreased in shoulder with sharp line angle and shoulder with rounded line angle, respectively. 4. At the interface between cement and abutment on crown surface, stresses were the highest in shoulder with sharp line angle, and decreased in shoulder with rounded line angle and chamfer, respectively. 5. The amount of incisal reduction had little influence on the stress distribution in all-ceramic crowns. 6. When load was applied at the incisal edge, higher stresses were developed in the margin region and the incisal edge than under the other loading conditions. 7. When load was applied at the cervical 1/5, stresses were very low as a whole.

The success of porcelain laminate veneer depends on the bond strength between tooth structure and ceramic restoration and the design of tooth preparation. In particular, incisal coverage and incisal finish line are the two most important factors in long-term fracture resistance. Although the majority of clinicians are practicing incisal coverage and there are various opinions on the geo-metrical ratio between the clinical crown length of the remaining tooth structure and the length of incisal extension in porcelain laminate veneer and the optimal incisal finish lines. scientific evidence still loaves much to be desired. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of the amounts of incisal coverage and the types of incisal finish line on the stress distribution in maxillary anterior porcelain laminate veneers under two different loading conditions. Three-dimensional finite element models of a maxillary anterior porcelain veneer with differ-ent amounts of incisal coverage ; 0, 1, 2, and 3mm and different incisal finish lines feathered edge, incisal bevel, reverse bevel and lingual chamfer with various amounts of lingual extension were developed. 300N force was applied at the point 0.5mm cervical of the linguoincisal edge in two loading conditions ; A) 125 degrees, B) 132 degrees. Tensile and compressive stress in ceramic and shear stress in the resin cement layer were analyzed using three-dimensional finite element method. The results were as follows : 1. The types of incisal finish line had more influence on the stress distribution in porcelain laminate veneer than the amounts of incisal coverage. 2. In case of no incisal coverage, incisal beveled laminate exhibited more evenly distributed tensile stress than feathered edged laminate. And in case of incisal coverage, reverse beveled laminate and lingual chamfered laminate with 1mm lingual extension exhibited more evenly distributed tensile stress than lingual chamfered laminates with 2mm and 3mm lingual extension. 3. As long as the lingual chamfer goes, less tensile stress was found at the incisal edge, while much more tensile stress was found at the lingual margin area in proportion to the length of lingual extension. 4. Under 125 degree load, tensile stress in porcelain laminate veneer had increased compared with that under 132 degree load and the difference exhibited by the change of the amount of tooth support was larger. 5. The types of incisal finish line and the distance from the incisal finish line to the loading point had more influence on the shear stress distribution in the resin cement layer than the amounts of incisal coverage. In contrast loading condition had little influence.

연구목적: 변연적합도는 보철수복물의 성공을 좌우하는 중요한 요소 중의 하나이다. McLean과 von Fraunhofer등에 의하면 120 ${\mu}m$ 이하를 임상적으로 허용할 수 있다고 했는데, 이를 넘는 정확하지 않은 변연은 지각과민을 일으키거나 이차 우식을 일으키고, 치태 축적을 용이하게 하여 보철물의 수명을 단축시키게 된다. 이에 최근에 우리나라에 소개되어 임상적으로 사용되고 있는 CAD-CAM 전부도재 수복물 중 $LAVA^{(R)}$ 시스템 (3M ESPE, St. Paul, MN)과 $EVEREST^{(R)}$ 시스템 (KaVo Dental GmbH, Biberach, Germany)으로 제작한 지르코니아 전부 도재관들이 도재전장 금속주조 수복물과 비교해 보아 코핑 상태일 때와 도재축성 후 각각 변연적합도의 차이가 있는지를 살펴보고자 하였다. 재료와 방법: 상악 제1소구치 덴티폼 치아를 high speed diamond bur 로 교합면 2.0 mm, 순설면 1.0 mm, 그리고 변연은 chamfer margin을 6도 측면 경사 절삭 기계로 균일하게 제작해서 이를 인상 채득하여 금속 지대치를 제작하였다. 이를 덴티폼 모형상에 장착한 후 전악인상을 채득하여 $LAVA^{(R)}$ 수복물 코핑, $EVEREST^{(R)}$ 수복물 코핑, 그리고 도재전장 금속주조 수복물 코핑을 각각 8개씩 제작하였다. 이들 코핑을 염색제를 섞은 Fit-checker $II^{(R)}$ (GC Cor., Tokyo, Japan)를 이용하여 금속 지대치에 접합시킨 뒤, $Microhiscope^{(R)}$ system (HIROX KH-1000 ING Plus, Seoul, Korea)을 이용하여 300배율로 관찰하면서 변연 간격을 ${\mu}m$단위로 측정하였다. 도재축성 후에도 마찬가지 방법으로 모든 수복물의 변연간격을 측정하여 통계 처리를 하였다. 결과: 코핑 상태에서의 평균 변연간격 값은 $EVEREST^{(R)}$ 에서 $52.00{\pm}11.94\;{\mu}m$, $LAVA^{(R)}$ 는 $ 56.97{\pm}10.00\;{\mu}m$, 그리고 도재 전장 금속 주조 수복물은 $97.38{\pm}18.54\;{\mu}m$를 보였고, 도재축성 후에 평균 변연 간격값은 $EVEREST^{(R)}$ 는 $61.69{\pm}19.33\;{\mu}m$, $LAVA^{(R)}$ 는 $70.81{\pm}12.99\;{\mu}m$, 그리고 도재 전장 금속 주조 수복물은 $115.25{\pm}23.86\;{\mu}m$를 보였다. 결론: 1. $LAVA^{(R)}$ 와 $EVEREST^{(R)}$ 수복물은 도재 전장 금속 주조 수복물과 비교하여 각각 코핑상태일 때와 도재 축성 후 모두 유의성 있는 (P < .05) 차이를 보이는 우수한 변연 적합도를 나타내었다. 2. $LAVA^{(R)}$ 와 $EVEREST^{(R)}$ 수복물 간의 평균 변연 간격 비교에서 코핑 상태일 때와 도재 축성 후에 모두 유의성 있는 차이는 없었다 (P > .05). 3. $LAVA^{(R)}$과 $EVEREST^{(R)}$ 그리고 PFM 은 각각 코어 상태일 때와 비교하여 도재 축성 후 변연 간격에서 약간 증가되었으나 유의성 있는 차이를 보이지는 않았다 (P > .05).

The metal ceramic crown is currently the most popular complete veneer restoration in dentistry, but in many cases, the metal cervical collar at the facial margin is unesthetic and unacceptable. Facial porcelain margin has been used in place of it. But this dose not solve the problems, such as dark gingival discoloration and cervical opaque reflection of porcelain veneer. Recently, metal copings which were designed to terminate its labio-cervical end on the axial walls coronal to the shoulder have been clinically used to solve the esthetic problem of metal ceramic crown. But in this design, porcelain veneer of labio-cervical area which is not supported by metal may not be able to resist the stress during cementation and mastication. The purpose of this study was to evaluate fracture strength and fractured appearance of crowns according to different coping designs. A resin maxillary left central incisor analogue was prepared for a metal ceramic crown, and metal dies were made with duplication mold. Metal copings were made and assigned to one of four groups based on facial framework designs: group 1, coping with 0.5mm metal collar; group 2, metal extended to the shoulder; group 3, metal extended to 1mm coronal tn the shoulder: group 4, metal extended to 2mm coronal to the shoulder. Copings and crowns were adjusted to be same size and thickness, and cemented to metal dies with zinc phosphate cement by finger pressure. Fracture strength was measured with Instron Universal Testing Machine. Metal dies were anchored in Three-way-vice at 3mm below finish line and at $130^{\circ}$ inclined to the long axis of the crown. Load was directed lingually at 2mm below midincisal edge. Load value at initial crack and at catastrophic fracture was recorded. The results obtained were as follows : 1. Fracture strength values at initial crack were higher in groups 1, 2 than in groups 3, 4 but this difference was not statistically significant(P<0.05). 2. Conventional metal collared crown had greater catastrophic fracture strength than any other collarless crowns. 3. The greater the labial metal coping reduction, the lower the catastrophic fracture strength of crowns but when more than 1mm of labial metal reduction was done, the difference in strengths was not statistically significant(p<0.05). 4. The strongest collarless coping design was group 2.

Statement of problem. Collarless metal ceramic fixed partial dentures(FPDs) had an esthetic problem such as opaque reflection in cervical region. To overcome this, modified coping which removed its facial cervical metal could be used. The marginal quality could be worsen according to the amount of its facial metal reduction. Purpose. The purpose of this study was to evaluate marginal fits of collarless metal ceramic FPDs with retainers of modified copings. Material and method. Dentoform maxillary left central incisor and right lateral incisor were prepared for 3-unit collarless metal ceramic FPD and fixed in yellow stone. This model was duplicated to PBT resin dies via CAD/CAM and injection molding. Four different facial margin design groups were investigated. Group A was a coping with a thin facial metal collar, group B was a collarless coping with its facial metal to the shoulder, group C was a collarless coping with its facial metal 1 mm short of the shoulder, and group D was a collarless coping with its facial metal 2 mm short of the shoulder. Seven collarless metal ceramic FPDs per group were fabricated. They were cemented to PBT resin dies with resin cement. After removal of pontics, each retainers were separated and observed under Accura 2000 optical microscope. Then, retainers were embeded in orthodontic resin and cross sectioned faciopalatally. Internal marginal fits of midfacial porcelain margins were observed under FE-SEM. Result and conclusion. Within the limitations of this in vitro study. The following conclusions were drawn. 1. Mean marginal gaps of collarless FPDs were in the $50-60{\mu}m$ range. 2. In midfacial margin, marginal discrepancies were greater in group A than in the experimental groups(p<0.05). 3. In midpalatal margin, marginal gaps were greater in group C and D than in group A and B(p<0.05). 4. Marginal fits of porcelain margins were better than those of metal margins in collarless metal ceramic FPDs. 5. In both teeth, internal marginal gaps of group C and D were greater than those of group A and B(p<0.05).
