The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of various techniques on the quality and quantity of instrumentation in curved canals. Instrumentation time was evaluated too. Forty eight canals of resin blocks($35^{\circ}$) were divided into three groups and filed. In group A, 16 blocks were instrumented using a step-back technique with stainless steel(SS) K-file(Mani, Matsutani Seisakusho Co.,Japan). In group B, canals were prepared with SS K-files using the Endo-Angle (Nakanishi Dental MFG.CO.,LTD.,Japan). Group C was prepared using N i-Ti engine-driven instruments (Quantec Series $2000^{TM}$ system). Group A and B were filed from # 5 to # 25 at the apex followed by a 1 mm stepback technique, and the coronal half of the canals were flared with Gates Glidden burs(#2,3,4). Group C was instrumented from # 1 to # 8. After the instrumentation time was measured, canals were filled with India ink, and photographed, which to magnify the canal images 8 times. Using these photographs the apical portions were evaluated And scored from 1 to 4 according to the severity of ledging and zipping. On the same photographs, the area of the coronal two thirds of the canals were measured using a personal computer with the computer program Brain and Digitizer (SummaSketch III). The following results were obtained. 1. Instrumentation time was significantly shorter for group C, as opposed to group A and B(ANOVA, P<0.05). 2. The qualitative evaluation of the apical portions of the canals showed no significant difference between the groups(Kruscal-Wallis, p>0.05). 3. The area removed by group C was significantly smaller than group A and B(ANOVA, P<0.05).

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the sealing ability of various canal filling methods. Palatal roots of ninety extracted human maxillary molar teeth were resected at cementoenamel junction. Eighty of them were randomly assigned to four experimental groups, ten were served as positive and negative controls. All canals were prepared to # 40 using Profile. Experimental groups were obturated by lateral condensation technique, Thermafil technique, Continuous Wave of Condensation Technique, and down-pack & back-fill technique of Obtura-II, each with root canal sealer. Control groups were not obturated. Teeth were immersed in resorcinol-formaldehyde resin for 5 days at $4^{\circ}C$, and the resin was allowed to polymerize completely for 4 days at room temperature. Teeth were then ground horizontally at 1.5mm(level 1), 2.5mm(level 2), 3.5 mm(level 3) from the anatomical apex and examined with a stereomicroscope at ${\times}40$ magnification. The gap between the canal wall and the filling material, which was filled with the resin, was measured at each of the three levels. Each ratio of leakage was obtained by calculating the ratio of the area of the resin to the total area of the canal and was analyzed statistically (Rank-sum test). The results were as follows : 1. At the level 1, there was the greatest leakage in the Thermafil group and Obtura-II group, and the difference between the Obtura-II group and Continuous Wave of Condensation Technique group was statistically significant(p<0.05). 2. At the level 2, there was the least leakage in the Continuous Wave of Condensation Technique group, but there was no statistically significant difference between each group (p>0.05). 3. At the level 3, there was no statistically significant difference between each group(p>0.05).

Land creeping is the imperceptibly slow, steady, downward movement o f slope-forming soil or rock. Because creep-related failures occur frequently on a large scale without notice, they can be hazardous to both property and human life. Korea Forest Service has operated the prevention and response system from land creeping which has been on the rise since 2018. We categorized and proposed three survey steps (e.g., preliminary, regional, detailed) for investigation of creeping susceptibility site with a focus on geophysical mapping of a selected test site, Yongheung-dong, Pohang, Korea. The combination of geophysical (dipole-dipole electrical resistivity tomography and reciprocal seismic refraction technique, well-logging), geotechnical studies (standard penetrating test, laboratory tests), field mapping (tension cracks, uplift, fault), and comprehensive interpretation of their results provided the reliable information of the subsurface structures including the failure surface. To further investigate the subsurface structure including the sliding zone, we performed high-resolution geophysical mapping in addition to the regional survey. High-resolution seismic velocity structures are employed for stability analysis because they provided more simplified layers of weathering rock, soft rock, and hard rock. Curved slip plane of the land creeping is effectively delineated with a shape of downslope sliding and upward pushing at the apex of high resistive bedrock in high-resolution electrical resistivity model with clay-mineral contents taken into account. Proposed survey steps and comprehensive interpretation schemes of the results from geological, geophysical, and geotechnical data should be effective for data sets collected in a similar environment to land-creeping susceptibility area.

목적: 본 연구의 목적은 Passive Ultrasonic Irrigation (PUI) 적용 강도 및 적용 횟수에 따른 상아질 잔사 제거의 효율성 비교에 있다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 48개의 하악 소구치를 표준화하고 이등분 한 후, 한쪽 상아질벽에는 치근첨에서 1, 3, 5 mm의 거리에, 반대쪽 상아질벽에는 2, 4 mm의 거리에 함요를 형성하였다. 각 함요에 NaOCl과 혼합된 상아질 잔사를 채웠다. 치아는 PUI 적용 강도에 따라 'Weak'과 'Strong'의 2개 그룹으로 나누고(n = 24), PUI 적용 횟수에 따라 '1회', '2회', '3회'의 3개 그룹으로(n = 8) 다시 나누었다. 근관 세정 과정 이후 함요에 잔존하는 상아질 잔사의 양을 평가하였다. 결과: Weak 그룹과 Strong 그룹 간의 통계적 유의성은 관찰되지 않았다. Weak 그룹 내에서 PUI 적용 횟수에 따른 통계적 유의성 역시 관찰되지 않았다. 그러나 Strong 그룹에서 PUI를 2회, 3회 적용하였을 때, 1회의 경우보다 유의하게 낮은 상아질 잔사의 양이 관찰되었다. 결론: PUI 적용 강도에 따른 상아질 잔사 제거의 효율성은 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. 그러나 Strong 그룹에서 PUI를 다회 적용시, 1회 적용할 때 보다 근단 1/3 부위의 세정 효과가 증가한다.

Statement of problem: A difficulty in achieving a passive-fitting prosthesis can be overcome by individual crown restoation of multiple implants. But individualized crown has another difficulty in control of contact tightness and stress distribution. Purpose: This in vitro study is to evaluate the stress distribution and the magnitude in the supporting tissues around Endopore implants with different crown lengths, interproximal contact tightness, and the splinting effects. Material & methods: Three Endopore implants($4.1{\times}9mm$) were placed in the mandibular posterior edentulous area distal to the canine and photoelastic model was made with PL-2 resin(Measurements Group, Raleigh, USA). Restorations were fabricated in two crown lengths: 9, 13 mm. For non-splinted restorations, individual crowns were fabricated on three custom-milled titanium abutments. After the units were cemented, 4 levels of interproximal contact tightness were evaluated: open, ideal($8{\mu}m$ shim stock drags without tearing), medium($40{\mu}m$), and heavy($80{\mu}m$). For splinted restorations, 3-unit fixed partial dentures were fabricated. This study was examined under simulated non-loaded and loaded conditions(6.8 kg). Photoelastic stress analysis was carried out to measure the fringe order around the implant supporting structure. Results: 1. When restorations were not splinted, the more interproximal contact tightness was increased among the three implants, the more stress was shown in the cervical region of each implant. When crown length was increased, stresses tended to increase in the apex of implants but there were little differences in stress fringes. 2. When nonsplinted restorations were loaded on the first or third implant, stresses were increased in the apex and cervical region of loaded implant. Regardless of interproximal contact tightness level, stresses were not distributed among the three implants. But with tighter interproximal contact, stresses were increased in the cervical region of loaded first or third implant. 3. When the nonsplinted restorations were not loaded, there were little stresses on the supporting structure of implants, but low level stresses were shown in the splinted restorations even after sectioning and soldering. 4. With splinted restorations, there were little differences in stresses between different crown lengths. When splinted restorations were loaded, stresses were increased slightly on the loaded implant, but relatively even stress distribution occurred among the three implants. Conclusions: Splinting the crowns of adjacent implants is recommended for Endopore implants under the overloading situation.

본 논문은 개선된 Anti-cloche filter를 사용하는 SECAM video encoder와 오차가 없는 제곱근기와 BPF를 사용하는 SECAM video decoder를 제안하고자 한다. SECAM video encoder는 ITU-R BT.470에 의해 지정된 Anti-cloche filter를 사용하지만, Anti-cloche filter가 가지는 특성이 주파수에 따라 매우 급격히 변하기 때문에 디지털회로의 설계에 적용하기가 어렵다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 본 논문에서는 Anti-cloche filter의 주파수 특성이 좌우대칭이라는 점을 이용하여서 좌우대칭의 중심이 되는 주파수인 4.286MHz를 0MHz로 이동하여 Anti-cloche filter를 High Pass Filter(HPF)로 변환한다. 변환된 HPF는 Anti-cloche filter에 비해 구조가 간단하기 때문에 설계가 비교적 용이하다. 또한 본 논문에서 제시한 SECAM video decoder는 주파수 변조된 신호로부터 색차신호(Db, Dr)를 복원하기 위해서 오차가 없는 제곱근기와 두 개의 미분기 그리고 삼각함수를 이용하여 색상신호의 잡음을 제거하고 CVBS(Composite Video Baseband Signal)로부터 색상신호와 밝기신호를 분리하기 위해서 BPF를 사용한다. 제안된 시스템은 Altera FPGA인 APEX20KE EP20K1000EBC652-3와 TV를 이용하여 실시간 검증을 수행하였다.

본 연구는 협측 이소맹출된 상악 제2대구치의 협측 반대교합을 개선하기 위해 사용되는 maxillary posterior crossbite appliance에 의해 상악 제2대구치의 치근단과 그 주위의 치조골에 발생되는 응력분포를 알아보기 위해 광탄성법을 이용하여 분석하였다. 상악의 치조골을 재현하기 위해 PL-3형의 epoxy resin과 PL-3보다 경질인 레진치아를 사용하여 협측 이소맹출된 상악 제2대구치를 광탄성모형으로 재현하였다. 광탄성 모형상에 maxillary posterior crossbite appliance를 적용하고 힘을 가하기 전과후의 응력분포를 알아보기 위해 원형편광기를 사용하여 모형의 전후방에서 관찰하였다. 이상의 연구를 통해 얻어진 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 상악 제2대구치의 구개면에 힘을 가한 경우, 협측과 구개측 치근첨에는 무늬차수 0.6차와 치경부에는 무늬차수 0.9차의 응력이 집중이 되어 나타났고 회전중심이 구개측 치근은 치근첨에, 협측 치근은 치근 1/4부위에 발생하였으며 이로 인해 제2대구치에 구개측으로의 비조절성 경사이동 및 회전력이 발생하였다. 2. 상악 제2대구치의 협측면에 힘을 가한 경우에는 구개면에 힘을 가한 경우 보다 협측과 구개측의 치근첨에 더 많은 무늬차수 2.2차의 응력이 발생하였다. 또한 치근하방의 치조골 부위에 응력의 발생과 함께 구개측 치근의 회전중심은 사라지고 협측 치근은 치근첨으로 이동하여 이로 인해 구개측으로의 조절성 경사이동 및 함입력이 발생하였다. 3. 상악 제2대구치의 협측이나 설측에 힘을 가한 경우, 고정원인 제1대구치는 치근첨부위에 소량의 응력이 발생하였고, 편측의 제2대구치에만 힘을 가한 경우보다 양측의 제2대구치에 동시에 힘을 가한 경우에서 더 많은 양의 응력이 제1대구치에 발생하였다. 이상의 결과는 협측 이소맹출된 상악 제2대구치의 구치부 협측 반대교합을 개선하기 위해 사용되는 maxillary posterior crossbite appliance를 적용할 때, 제1대구치의 고정원 상실을 최소화하기 위해서는 편측의 제2대구치를 먼저 개선시키고 그 후 반대측 제2대구치의 개선을 도모하는 것이 바람직하다는 것을 의미한다. 또한 구개측면보다는 협측면에서 견인력을 가하여 제2대구치에 함입력과 구개측으로의 조절성 경사이동을 발생시키는 것이 구치의 정출 및 회전에 의해 야기될 수 있는 교합장애를 방지할 수 있으리라 사료된다.

Purpose : To investigate the change of bone healing process after endodontic treatment of the tooth with an apical lesion by fractal analysis. Materials and Methods Radiographic images of 35 teeth from 33 patients taken on first diagnosis, 6 months, and 1 year after endodontic treatment were selected. Radiographic images were taken by JUPITER Computerized Dental X-ray $System^{(R)}$. Fractal dimensions were calculated three times at each area by Scion Image $PC^{(R)}$ program. Rectangular region of interest $(30\times30)$ were selected at apical lesion and normal apex of each image. Results : The fractal dimension at apical lesion of first diagnosis $(L_0)$ is $0.940{\pm}0.361$ and that of normal area $(N_0)$ is $1.186{\pm}0.727(p<0.05)$. Fractal dimension at apical lesion of 6 months after endodontic treatment $(L_1)$ is $1.076{\pm}0.069$ and that of normal area $ (N_1)$ is $1.192{\pm}0.055(p<0.05)$. Fractal dimension at apical lesion of 1 year after endodontic treatment $(L_2)$ is $1.163{\pm}0.074$ and that of normal area $(N_2)$ is $1.225{\pm}0.079(p<0.05)$. After endodontic treatment, the fractal dimensions at each apical lesions depending on time showed statistically significant difference. And there are statistically significant different between normal area and apical lesion on first diagnosis, 6 months after, 1 year after. But the differences were grow smaller as time flows. Conclusion : The evaluation of the prognosis after the endodontic treatment of the apical lesion was estimated by bone regeneration in apical region. Fractal analysis was attempted to overcome the limit of subjective reading, and as a result the change of the bone during the healing process was able to be detected objectively and quantitatively.
