This study is an analysis of types of patients and distribution of implant site and survival rate of $Xive^{(R)}$ implant. The following results on patient type, implant distribution and survival rate were compiled from 324 implant cases of 140 patients treated at the periodontal dept. of Yonsei University Hospital and G dental clinic between February 2003 and April 2006. 1. There are no dissimilarities between men and women, with patients in their 30, 40, 50s accounting for 80% of patients and accounted for 82% of implant treatments; the largest share of patients and implant treatments. 2. Mn, posterior area. accounted for 57% of implant treatments followed by Mx. posterior area(29%), Mx, anterior area(8%) and Mn, anterior area(6%). 3. Partial edentulous patients treated by single crown and bridge-type prosthesis accounted for 96% and fully edentulous patient accounted for the remaining 4%. 4. The major cause of tooth loss is periodontal disease, followed by dental canes, trauma and congenital missing. 5, The distribution of bone quality for maxillae was 54,2% for type III, followed by 30.8% for type II, 15% for type IV and 0% for type I. As for mandible, the distribution was 63% for type II, followed by 34% for type III, 2,5% for type I and 0,5% for type IV. 6. The distribution of bone quantity for maxillae was 55% for type C, followed by 35% for type B, 8% for type D and 2% for type A. As for mandible, the distribution was 60% for type B, followed by 32% for type C, 7% for type A and 0% for type D. 7. The majority of implants were those of 9.5-13 mm in length(95%) and regular diameter in width(82%). 8. The total survival rate was 98%. The survival rate was 97% in the maxillae region and 99% in the mandible region. 9. The survival rate in type I was 83%, in type II was 99%, in type III was 97% and in type IV was 100%. As for the bone quantity, the survival rate in type A and D(100%) was most, followed by type B(99%) and type C(96%). The results showed that $Xive^{(R)}$ implant could be used satisfactorily compare for the other implant system. But we most to approach carefully in certain extreme condition especially with poor bone quality and quantity.

Methods for restoring the posterior portion of the maxilla with delayed and simultaneous sinus lift, composite graft and placement of TPS cylinder and screw type implants are presented. Sinus grafting is needed because of minimal remaining alveolar bone and supporting posterior maxillary portion, The composite graft material uses a combination of autogeneous bone from tuberosity, dimeneralized freeze dried allogenic bone and hydroxylapatite with saline. Since 1991, feb, 1 sinus graft with delayed implantation of 3 cylinder implants and 5 sinus grafts with simultaneous placement of 4HA coated screw typed, 8 TPS cylinder typed implants have been performed for 6 patients. None of the 15 restored implants have been lost, Temporization of prosthesis was done about 2-5 months before final prosthetic work, None of them shows any severe complication.

We present a rare case of a patient with aortoiliac occlusive disease on the background of type A crossed renal ectopia, for whom open surgical intervention was required. Aortic exposure in patients with concomitant crossed renal ectopia can present technical challenges to the vascular surgeon. The knowledge of variations in the ectopic renal blood supply is of paramount importance when performing surgery to treat this condition and affects the choice of surgical exposure. We present and discuss the operative details of our patient and outline an approach to this subset of patients.

After stage-two surgery, the highest incidence of failure has been attributed to implant overload. However, the biomechanical factors cited inthe literature that contribute to implant overload, such as bone type, cuspal inclination, horizontal offset, maxillary compared to mandibular arch, the inclusion of natural teeth within the prosthesis, and occlusal harmony are superimposed on physiologic variations. Following two cases, including reduction of cuspal inclination and usage of modified incisal pin, showed a method of contouring occlusal surface for reduction of unpreditable implant overload.

Improving intraoperative and postoperative myocardial protection and better construction and design of valvular prosthesis has reduced the mortality of MVR. But, ventricular rupture after MVR occurred occasionally and represented a potentially lethal complication. Transverse midventricular disruption presented as refractory myocardial failure immediately on termination of bypass or later often on initial period of good hemadynamics. From Jan., 1985 through Dec., 1991 131 MVRs were performed as isolated or combined procedures. Rupture of the posterior wall of left ventricle was observed in 2 patients. There were 2 type III ruptures Prevention is of utmost importance, and by taking certain precautions, the chance of ventricular rupture can be reduced. Repair should always be done by patch technique in the aid of the use of cardiopulmonary bypass with cardioplegic arrest. When the laceration is in the middle of the posterior left ventricle, external repair with the pericardial patch can be attempted first.

The presence of a small aortic annulus creates a difficult technical problem. Whenever possible, the smaller prosthesis of any type should be avoided. A case of aortic stenoinsufficiency with fibrous small aortic annulus [17 mm] in 26 years old adult woman patient was successful operated upon with aortic valve replacement [21 mm St. Jude Medical valve] and enlargement of aortic annulus with Gore-Tex patch. The postoperative course was uneventful.

This case report describes the immediate loading of narrow diameter implants in the mandibular incisor area using full-digital flow. The 3-dimensional position of the implants was planned using digital software, and the corresponding surgical template was fabricated. The implants were inserted immediately after extraction and on the same day, the interim abutment and bridge were placed. At 8 weeks after surgery, the stability of the implants was measured and a digital impression was made using a scan body. Customized titanium abutments and a cement-type full zirconia bridge were delivered. At 36 weeks' follow-up, no clinical or radiographic complications were detected, and the patient was satisfied with the results.

The artificial resin teeth used for removable prosthesis have good physical properties, but they have great wear rate. The purpose of this study is to compare the wear characteristics of several artificial resin teeth, such as Myerson teeth(Myerson Crop), Trubite IPN(Dentsply), Endura Posterio(Shofu), SROrthosit(Ivoclar), Trubite Biotone(Dentsply), Five samples of each resin tooth were abraded against natural teeth, type III gold for 150,000 cycles on the wear machine. The results obtained were as follow 1. The wear rate of artificial resin teeth when opposing enamel was the lowest in Myerson teeth($8.60{\mu}m$), followed by Trubite IPN($41.30{\mu}m$), Endure poster($63.00{\mu}m$), SR-Orthosit($68.40{\mu}m$), Trubite Biotone($209.90{\mu}m$) 2. The wear rate of artificial teeth when opposting type III gold specimens was the lowest in Myerson teeth($13.50{\mu}m$) followed by Endura Posterio($14.75{\mu}m$), Trubite IPN($53.40{\mu}m$), SROrthosit($54.20{\mu}m$), Trubite Boitone($341.50{\mu}m$)

Periotest(Siemens, Germany) has been used to test mobility of the implants clinically, however the effects of target materials and connection methods on the PTVs(Periotest Values) have not been evaluated. Periotest has been regarded as a reliable and objective tool to test implant and natural teeth mobility clinically, however this instrument showed different PTVs under various test conditions. This in vitro study was designed to compare PTVs of different veneering materials and prosthodontic designs (single and bridge restorations). To compare the effects of veneering materials on PTVs, 1 mm thickness of five different testing materials (porcelain, type III gold alloy, pure titanium, composite resin, acrylic resin) were placed on the resin block. Three full length of 13 mm Mark II implant fixtures were embedded into autopolymerizing resin block to fabricate single and bridge restorations. To evaluate effects of the connection method in single restorations, PTVs of screw retained(UCLA type) and cementation type(Cera-One system) were compared. Finally, to test reliability of PTVs of the final restorations, screw retained three unit short span PFM bridges were fabricated on the standard and Estheti-Cone abutments. All testing components were tightened with torque controller and PTVs of all specimens were measured 15 times for statistical analysis with SAS program. Following conclusions were made within the limit of this in vitro study. 1. PTVs of type III gold alloy, grade II titanium, composite resin veneering materials showed no significant differences, however acrylic resin and porcelain showed significant differences (P<0.05). 2. Single tooth restorations showed consistent PTVs as long as proper torque force was applied. 3. PTVs of bridge type prostheses was inconsistent regardless of abutment types. 4. PTVs of the prostheses showed higher scores and standard deviations than those of abutments regardless types of connection (P<0.05).

Nowdays, the awareness of implant treatment has grown rapidly among dentists and patients alike in Korea, as it becomes a widely accepted treatment. The reason is that unlike crown and bridge or denture treatment, implant treatment helps preserve existing bone and improve masticatory functions. So, It is needed understanding about the type, distribution of implant patient. The following results on patient type and implant distribution were compiled from 4433 implant cases of 1596 patients treated at the periodontal dept. of Y University Hospital during 1992 to 2004. 1. There are no dissimilarities between men and women, with patients in their 40, 50s accounting for 52.5% of patients and 57.5% of implant treatments; the largest share of patients and implant treatments. 2. Mn. posterior area accounted for 54.9% of implant treatments followed by Mx. posterior area(27.6%), Mx anterior area(11.9%) and Mn anterior area(5.6%). 3. Partial edentulous patients treated by single crown and bridge-type prosthesis accounted for 97.5% and fully edentulous patient accounted for the remaining 2.5%. 4. The major cause of tooth loss is periodontal disease, followed by dental caries, trauma and congenital missing. Also, older people are more likely to suffer from tooth loss due to periodontal disease rather than dental caries. 5. In the distribution of bone quality for maxillae, type III was most, followed by type II, r type IV and r type I. As for mandible, type II was most, followed by type III, type IV and for type I. 6. In the distribution of bone quantity for maxillae, type C was most, followed by type B, type D, type A, and for type E. As for mandible, type B was 52% most, followed by type C, type D, type A and type E. 7. The majority of implants were those of 1O-14mm in length (85.2%) and regular diameter in width (64%). The results provided us with basic data on patient type, implant distribution, bone condition, etc. We wish that our results coupled with other research data helps assist in the further study for better implant success/survival rates, etc.
