연구목적: 지르코니아-도재 수복물에 있어 상부도재와 코어 사이의 결합 실패가 종종 보고되어 왔으며 특히 착색지르코니아 코어는 기존의 백색 지르코니아보다 상부 도재와의 결합력이 약하다고 보고된 바 있다. 이 연구의 목적은 착색 지르코니아 코어 위의 상부도재를 적층식과 열가압식으로 제작하여 그 전단결합강도를 알아보고, 이를 전통적인 금속-도재간 결합강도와 비교하여 그 임상적 안정성을 평가하는 것이다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 금속도재군 (MC)을 대조군으로 하였다. 전통적인 금속도재군 (MC)과 지르코니아 코어를 사용한 두가지 군 (ZB, ZP)에 대하여 각 시스템별로 10개씩, 총 30개의 시편을 제작했다. CAD/CAM을 이용해 직경 12 mm, 높이 2.8 mm의 원판형 지르코니아 코어 (Katana zirconia)를 제작하고, 그 상부에 직경 2.8 mm, 높이 3 mm의 도재를 축성했다. ZB군은 CZR을 이용하여 적층법으로 상부도재를 제작했으며 ZP군은 NobelRondo Press ingot를 열가압하여 제작했다. Shear bond test machine (R&B Inc. Daejeon, Korea)을 이용하여 분당 0.50 mm의 속도로 파절이 일어날 때까지 전단력을 가하여 최대적용력 (N)을 측정하여 전단결합강도를 계산하고, 일원배치 분산분석을 사용하여 유의수준 5%에서 검정하였다. 파절양상을 알아보기 위하여 전자주사현미경을 통해 파절단면을 관찰했다. 결과: 평균 전단강도 (SD)는 MC 대조군 29.14 (2.26); ZB 29.48 (2.30); ZP 29.51 (2.32) 이었다. 실험군과 대조군 사이에 유의한 차이는 없었다. 모든 실험군에서 접착성 실패와 응집성 실패가 혼재된 양상을 보였으며, 응집성 실패가 우세했다. 결론: 1. 착색지르코니아 코어와 상부도재들 간의 전단결합강도는 금속 도재간 전단결합강도와 유의한 차이가 없었다. 2. 착색지르코니아 코어의 상부도재를 제작하는 방식에 있어 적층법과 열가압법 간의 전단결합강도에 유의한 차이는 없었다 (P > .05). 3. 파절양상은 응집성 파절이 우세한 가운데 접착성 파절과 응집성 파절이 혼재되어 나타났다.

PURPOSE. Fracture of the veneering material of zirconia restorations frequently occurs in clinical situations. The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the fracture strengths of zirconia crowns veneered with various ceramic materials by various techniques. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A 1.2 mm, $360^{\circ}$ chamfer preparation and occlusal reduction of 2 mm were performed on a first mandibular molar, and 45 model dies were fabricated in a titanium alloy by CAD/CAM system. Forty-five zirconia copings were fabricated and divided into three groups. In the first group (LT) zirconia copings were veneered with feldspathic porcelain by the layering technique. In the second group (HT) the glass ceramic was heat-pressed on the zirconia coping, and for the third group (ST) a CAD/CAM-fabricated high-strength anatomically shaped veneering cap was sintered onto the zirconia coping. All crowns were cemented onto their titanium dies with Rely $X^{TM}$ Unicem (3M ESPE) and loaded with a universal testing machine (Instron 5583) until failure. The mean fracture values were compared by an one-way ANOVA and a multiple comparison post-hoc test (${\alpha}$= 0.05). Scanning electron microscope was used to investigate the fractured interface. RESULTS. Mean fracture load and standard deviation was $4263.8{\pm}1110.8$ N for Group LT, $5070.8{\pm}1016.4$ for Group HT and $6242.0{\pm}1759.5$ N for Group ST. The values of Group ST were significantly higher than those of the other groups. CONCLUSION. Zirconia crowns veneered with CAD/CAM generated glass ceramics by the sintering technique are superior to those veneered with feldspathic porcelain by the layering technique or veneered with glass ceramics by the heat-pressing technique in terms of fracture strength.

PURPOSE. To determine whether the fracture strengths and failure types differed between metal and zirconia frameworks veneered with pressable or layering ceramics. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A phantom molar tooth was prepared and duplicated in 40 cobalt-chromium abutments. Twenty metal (IPS d.SIGN 15, Ivoclar, Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein) and 20 zirconia (IPS e.max ZirCAD, Ivoclar) frameworks were fabricated on the abutments. Each framework group was randomly divided into 2 subgroups according to the veneering material: pressable and layering ceramics (n=10). Forty molar crowns were fabricated, cemented onto the corresponding abutments and then thermocycled ($5-55^{\circ}C$, 10,000 cycles). A load was applied in a universal testing machine until a fracture occurred on the crowns. In addition, failure types were examined using a stereomicroscope. Fracture load data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey HSD post-hoc tests at a significance level of 0.05. RESULTS. The highest strength value was seen in metal-pressable (MP) group, whereas zirconia-pressable (ZP) group exhibited the lowest one. Moreover, group MP showed significantly higher fracture loads than group ZP (P=.015) and zirconia-layering (ZL) (P=.038) group. No significant difference in fracture strength was detected between groups MP and ML, and groups ZP and ZL (P>.05). Predominant fracture types were cohesive for metal groups and adhesive for zirconia groups. CONCLUSION. Fracture strength of a restoration with a metal or a zirconia framework was independent of the veneering techniques. However, the pressing technique over metal frameworks resisted significantly higher fracture loads than zirconia frameworks.

PURPOSE. To evaluate and compare the effect of different materials and techniques on the shear bond strength of veneering ceramic materials to zirconia. MATERIALS AND METHODS. 136 sintered zirconia cubes were prepared and randomly divided into four study groups according to corresponding methods of surface treatment and materials: GLN (grinding followed by laser scanning using Noritake Cerabien ZR), SLN (sandblasting followed by laser scanning using Noritake Cerabien ZR), GLV (grinding followed by laser scanning using VITA VM 9), and SLV (sandblasting followed by laser scanning using VITA VM 9). Spraying technique was performed to coat the core. Profilometer, SEM, XRD, EDS, universal testing machine, and stereomicroscope were used to record surface roughness Ra, surface morphology, phase transformation, elemental compositions, shear bond strength SBS values, and failure types, respectively. Specimens were investigated in unaged (not immersed in artificial saliva) and aged (stored in artificial saliva for a month) conditions to evaluate SBS values. RESULTS. Grinding and GLN as first and second surface treatments provided satisfactory Ra values in both conditions ($1.05{\pm}0.24{\mu}m$, $1.30{\pm}0.21{\mu}m$) compared to sandblasting and other groups (P<.05). The group GLN showed the highest SBS values in both conditions ($30.97{\pm}3.12MPa$, $29.09{\pm}4.17MPa$), while group SLV recorded the lowest ($23.96{\pm}3.60MPa$, $22.95{\pm}3.68Mpa$) (P<.05). Sandblasting showed phase transformation from t-m. Mixed failure type was the commonest among all groups. CONCLUSION. GLN showed to be a reliable method which provided satisfactory bond strength between the veneer ceramic and zirconia. This method might preserve the integrity of fixed dental crowns.

Dental ceramics is well known to have excellent esthetics, biocompatibility as well as high compressive strength. However, the fragility of ceramics against tensile and shear loads leading to the delayed fracture of micro crack on ceramic surface and the backwardness of ceramic fabrication technique limit the usage of ceramic materials in dentistry. Among all ceramic materials, zirconia has been introduced to overcome the drawback of conventional dental ceramics in the field of dentistry due to the nature of zirconia featuring proper opalescence and high fracture toughness. Also, novel manufacturing techniques enable ceramic materials to prepare high esthetic anterior and posterior all ceramic system. In this paper, it is introduced and discussed that novel techniques characterizing the bond strength between zirconia core and veneering ceramics and analyzing the fluorescence of dental ceramics in order to overcome the gap between the results of basic research and the feasibility of the results in the field of dental clinics.

PURPOSE. The purposes of this study are to evaluate the internal and marginal adaptation of two widely used CAD/CAM systems and to study the effect of porcelain press veneering process on the prosthesis adaptation. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Molar of a lower jaw typodont resin model was prepared by adjusting a 1.0 mm circumferential chamfer, an occlusal reduction of 2.0 mm, and a $5^{\circ}$ convergence angle and was duplicated as an abrasion-resistant master die. The monolithic crowns and copings were fabricated with two different CAD/CAM system-Ceramil and Zirkonzahn systems. Two kinds of non-destructive analysis methods are used in this study. First, weight technique was used to determine the overall fitting accuracy. And, to evaluate internal and marginal fit of specific part, replica technique procedures were performed. RESULTS. The silicone weight for the cement space of monolithic crowns and copings manufactured with Ceramil system was significantly higher than that from Zirkonzahn system. This gap might cause the differences in the silicone weight because the prostheses were manufactured according to the recommendation of each system. Marginal discrepancies of copings made with Ceramil system were between 106 and $117{\mu}m$ and those from Zirkonzahn system were between 111 and $115{\mu}m$. Marginal discrepancies of copings made with Ceramil system were between 101 and $131{\mu}m$ and those from Zirkonzahn system were between 116 and $131{\mu}m$. CONCLUSION. Marginal discrepancy was relatively lower in Ceramil system and internal gap was smaller in Zirkonzahn system. There were significant differences in the internal gap of monolithic crown and coping among the 2 CAD/CAM systems. Marginal discrepancy produced from the 2 CAD/CAM systems were within a reported clinically acceptable range of marginal discrepancy.

본 연구는 심미보철 치료에서 사용되는 금속도재관 제작시 Ni-Cr alloy 하부 구조물에 상부도재를 축성하고 소성하는 과정이 완성된 보철물의 적합도에 미치는 영향을 조사함으로써 임상적 허용을 재확인하기 위함이다. 1차로 lost wax technique으로 제작된 NCC (Ni-Cr alloy core)의 변연 및 내면 적합도를 측정하였고, 2차로 NCC에 상부도재 축성, 소성하여 금속도재관을 최종 완성하여 2차로 측정한 뒤비교한 결과는 다음과 같다. 금속도재관 제작 시 Ni-Cr alloy로 제작된 코어 위에 상부도재를 축성하고 소성하는 과정이 금속 도재관의 적합도를 악화시키는 결과를 보였으며, 부위 별 구분 없이 두 그룹에서 측정된 모든 값의 평균을 비교한 결과 NCC 그룹에서는 $67.1{\pm}23.3{\mu}m$, NMC 그룹에서는 $74.4{\pm}21.9{\mu}m$로 나타났으며 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<0.05). 이와 같은 결과를 토대로 Ni-Cr alloy로 금속도재관 제작 시 상부도재를 축성하는 과정에서 적합도를 악화시킨다는 결론을 얻었으나, 본 실험에서 측정된 결과 값은 임상적 허용 수치($120{\mu}m$)를 넘지 않아 적합도의 기준으로 평가하였을 때 임상적으로 허용 가능할 것으로 생각된다.

최근, CAD/CAM 기술이 발전하면서 하이브리드 보철물의 제작에 이용되고 있다. Double scanning technique은 시적용 납의치와 주모형을 스캔 후 중첩하여, 가상 디자인의 현실화와 보철 기공 과정의 간소화를 이루었다. 본 증례에서는 금속 혹은 지르코니아 대신 고성능 중합체인 Polyetherketoneketone (Pekkton, Cendres+$M{\acute{e}}taux$, Biel, Switzerland)를 framework의 재료로 사용했으며, 콤포짓이나 세라믹 혹은 의치용 치아 대신 Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) 비니어링 치아(Visio-lign, Bredent, Senden, Germany)를 최종 보철물로 사용하였다. Pekkton과 Visio-lign을 사용한 본 증례에서 만족할만한 치료 결과와 환자의 만족을 얻었으며, 추후 주기적인 유지관리 및 평가가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

골유착성 임플란트의 등장으로 결손치의 수복이 가능하게 되어 전통적인 고정성 또는 가철성 국소의치가 임플란트로 대체되어가고 있는 추세이다. 특히 젊은 환자의 경우 보철물의 수명과 함께 심미적인 결과를 고려해야 한다. 임플란트는 장기간의 성공적인 치료 결과와 함께 기능적인 회복을 이룰 수 있으나, 치은 퇴축으로 인한 변연부 노출, 치간 유두 상실로 인한 비심미적인 연조직, 금속 지대주, 상부 도재관의 투명도 감소 등은 임플란트 수복 시 정상적인 저작 기능 회복은 이룰 수 있으나 심미적으로는 불리한 결과를 보일 수 있다. 최근 CAD/CAM technology를 이용한 지르코니아는 충분한 강도와 파절 저항성을 가져 정상적인 저작 기능이 가능하고, 뛰어난 굴곡강도로 고정성 보철물, 가철성 의치 보철물에 다양하게 응용되며, 생체 적합성이 뛰어나고, 색조 재현성에서도 금속에 비해 심미적인 결과를 보이며 전치부와 구치부의 보철 치료에 이용되고 있다. 그리고 pressed ceramic technique을 이용한 전부 도재 보철 수복은 기존의 전통적인 도재 축성 과정보다 우수한 파절 저항성을 보인다. Pressed ceramic technique 은 상부의 도재 축성 과정이 왁스업을 통해 용융, 주조 되어 최종 보철물의 형태를 왁스업 단계에서 조절할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 임플란트를 포함한 본 증례의 보철 수복은 임시 보철물의 치경부 형태를 조절하여 심미적인 연조직을 재현하고자 하였고, 임시 보철물의 형태를 왁스업으로 복제하여 원하는 형태의 최종 보철물을 제작하였다. 본 증례에서는 임플란트 치료에 있어서 지르코니아와 pressed ceramic technique을 적용하여 기능적이고 심미적으로 양호한 결과를 얻었다.

PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the translucency of shaded zirconia allceramic systems. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Translucency of 3 different zirconia all-ceramic systems colored by different techniques was compared with a lithium disilicate glass-ceramic (IPS e.max Press). Square-shaped specimens with 0.5 mm thickness were fabricated from In-Ceram YZ, ICE Zirkon and Katana systems in A1, A2 and A3.5 shades according to Vitapan Classical shade tab (n=11). Specimens were then veneered and glazed with corresponding veneer ceramic recommended by each zirconia system manufacturer and the total thickness was set to 1.5 mm. Translucency measurements were performed with VITA Easyshade Compact spectrophotometer after each stage and translucency parameter was calculated. Data were statistically analyzed with repeated measures ANOVA and Tukey multiple comparison test. RESULTS. The control group was significantly more translucent than the zirconia systems (P<.05). ICE Zirkon cores showed the least translucency; neither In-Ceram YZ nor Katana systems were superior to each other in terms of translucency. Translucency of all specimens was decreased after veneering, and the translucency rankings were changed. CONCLUSION. Coloring technique did not have a significant effect on translucency of zirconia cores. Although zirconia systems were less translucent than lithium disilicate glass ceramic, they had partial translucency and there were translucency differences among the zirconia systems. Chroma affected the translucency of precolored zirconia cores.
