Maxillofacial prosthodontics is an art and science which provides life like appearance to the person with facial deformity. Maxillofacial prosthetic rehabilitation for acquired defects has become more complex and sophisticated with advancement in techniques and materials. This case report describes the clinical and laboratory procedure for fabricating an auricular prosthesis for a patient with trauma related bilateral auricular deformity. Ear prosthesis was fabricated in two parts taking retention from external auditory canal.

이 연구는 우리나라 노인의 구강건강 개선을 위하여 현재 저작 불편 호소와 치과 보철 필요와의 관련성을 평가하고자 하였다. 연구대상자는 제5기 1차년도 국민건강영양조사에 참여한 65세 이상 노인 1,177명을 대상으로 조사를 실시하였다. 구강검사를 통하여 상실치아와 필요 보철 상태를 파악하였으며, 구조화된 설문도구를 이용하여 사회경제요인, 구강건강 관심도, 저작능력과 발음문제를 조사하였다. 수합된 자료는 SPSS 19.0 프로그램을 사용하여 분석하였다. 우리나라 노인의 42.9%는 저작 불편을 호소하였으며, 로지스틱 회귀분석을 통하여 혼란변수를 보정한 결과 고정 보철 필요 위험비는 1.22, 부분의치 필요 위험비는 2.47, 총의치 필요 위험비는 2.06이었다. 치과보철 필요는 저작 불편 호소와 관련이 있었다. 따라서 노인을 위한 치과 보철 정책과 구강건강증진의 뒷받침이 가장 필요하다.

Purpose: This study was to assess the extents of the release of metals from the non-precious alloys used for dental casting by measuring the differences in the extents of the release of metals by types of alloys, pH level and elapsed time. Methods: Uniform-sized specimens(10 each) were prepared according to the Medical Device Standard of the Korea Food and Drug Administration(2010) and International Standard Organization(ISO22674, 2006), using four types of alloys(one type of Ni-Cr and one type of Co-Cr used for fixed prosthesis, and one type of Ni-Cr and one type of Co-Cr used for removable prosthesis). A total of 12 metal-release tests were performed at one-day, three-day, and two-week intervals, for up to 20 weeks. The metal ions were quantified using an Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectrometer. Results: The results showed that the extent of corrosion was higher in the ascending order of Jdium-$100^{(R)}$, Bellabond-$Plus^{(R)}$, Starloy-$C^{(R)}$, and Biosil-$F^{(R)}$. The lower the pH and the longer the elapsed time were, the greater the increase in metal corrosion. At pH 2.4, the release of Ni from Jdium-$100^{(R)}$, a Ni-Cr alloy, was up to 15 times greater than the release of Co from the Co-Cr alloy from two weeks over time, indicating that the Ni-Cr alloy is more susceptible to corrosion than the Co-Cr alloy. Conclusion: It is recommended that Co-Cr alloy, which is highly resistant to corrosion, be used for making dental prosthesis with a non-precious alloy for dental casting, and that non-precious alloy prosthesis be designed in such a way as to minimize the area of its oral exposure. For patients with non-precious alloy prostheses, a test of the presence or absence of periodontal tissue inflammation or allergic reaction around the prosthesis should be performed via regular examination, and education on the good management of the prosthesis is needed.

치과기공사는 구강 모델에 기초하여 보철물을 제작하기 때문에 안모와의 부조화가 되는 경우가 있다. 안모와의 부조화에 기인한 보철물의 실패를 예방하기 위해서는 진료실과 기공소 간의 소통에 기반한 모델 진단, 안면 및 구강사진을 참고하여 제작해야한다. 그리고 치과기공사는 색과 형태에 대한 이해를 위해 자연치 관찰이 필요하며 Kuraray Noritake의 internal stain 및 투명감을 부여해 주는 powder를 이용하면 자연감 있는 보철물을 제작하데 용이하다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to conduct a cost accounting of implant prosthesis according to the fabrication activities. Methods: In this study, the cost price of implant prosthesis fabrication activities was calculated by the bottom-up costing approach for material and labor cost and the top-down costing approach for expenses and other. Results: The total cost price was estimated to 220,000 ~ 310,000 won per one implant prosthesis. By product, the screw type was estimated to 220,000 ~ 230,000 won, and when the stent and tray were included, it was 260,000 ~ 270,000 won, which increased about 40,000 won. And, the cement type with more material and labor time was estimated to 250,000 ~ 260,000 won, and when the stent and tray were included, it was about 300,000 won. Conclusion: In terms of the fabrication cost ratio by items, it was shown that material cost and labor cost accounted for about 40% and 30% of the total cost structure for resin case, respectively, which was the opposite for porcelain. It was shown that expenses and general administrative expenses accounted for about 15%, and profits were about 11% ~ 14% in both cases.

This study aims to describe the clinical experience of single and bridge crowns fabricated using a cementless screw-retained implant prosthesis system. In the case of single crown (#37), regular link (HDL) was used, and bridge crowns (#15~#24), (#26~#27), (#17~#14) (#24~#26) were fabricated by selecting regular link and short link considering the vertical height. One abutment was hex shaped to ensure that it could be mounted while preventing insertion and prosthesis rotation. The advantages of cementless implant prosthesis include shorter chair time and periodic care, strong retention with LINK abutment, safety from inflammation, bacterial infection, and complications due to peri-implant cement, and high patient satisfaction. Dentists should double-check the position of the implant fixture and dental technicians should continuously manage the fit of the link and prosthesis with digital equipment to reduce screw loosening and fractures.

Cementation is the last procedure and an important factor to access successful fixed prosthodontic treatment. Even though there are many kinds of luting materials in dental field, the resin cements are popularly used in now. Metals, polymers and ceramics are used as a material of fixed dental prosthesis. The bonding mechanisms between teeth and fixed restorations are composed of mechanical and chemical mechanism. In dentistry, we are relying on mechanical bonding, but we tried to get chemical bonding and many ways are introduced. So, we have to approach luting procedure differently by the materials of prosthesis for clinical success. In this article, let us think the proper cementation ways according to each prosthesis material.

PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of the splinted implant prosthesis in a reconstructed mandible using three-dimensional finite element analysis. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Three-dimensional finite element models were generated from a patient's computed tomography data. The patient had undergone partial resection of the mandible that covered the area from the left canine to the right condyle. The mandible was reconstructed using a fibula bone graft and dental implants. The left mandibular premolars and molars remained intact. Three types of models were created. The implant-supported prosthesis was splinted and segmented into two or three pieces. Each of these models was further subcategorized into two situations to compare the stress distribution around normal teeth and implants. Oblique loading of 300 N was applied on both sides of the mandible unilaterally. The maximum von Mises stress and displacement of the models were analyzed. RESULTS. The stress distribution of the natural mandible was more uniform than that of the reconstructed fibula. When the loading was applied to the implant prosthesis of reconstructed fibula, stress was concentrated at the cortical bone around the neck of the implants. The three-piece prosthesis model showed less uniform stress distribution compared to the others. Displacement of the components was positively correlated with the distance from areas of muscle attachment. The three-piece prosthesis model showed the greatest displacement. CONCLUSION. The splinted implant prosthesis showed a more favorable stress distribution and less displacement than the separated models in the reconstructed mandible.

본 연구는 PET-CT 검사를 시행할 때 치과보철물에 의해 발생되는 CT의 HU(Hounsfield Unit) 값을 금속의 종류에 따라 측정하고, PET 영상의 왜곡정도와 표준섭취계수(SUV)의 변화를 확인하여 영상 판독 시 오류의 감소방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 실험방법은 실제 치아와 메탈 크라운, 골드크라운, 티타늄, 지르코니아의 치과보철물을 이용하여 PET-CT 검사를 실시하였다. 일반 치아와 비교한 결과 HU 값이 증가함에 따라 SUV 값이 증가되는 것을 확인하였고, 메탈 크라운, 티타늄, 지르코니아의 SUV 값은 37% 정도 증가되었고, 골드 크라운에서는 45.4%로 가장 많이 증가했다. 그리고 일반치아, 메탈크라운, 티타늄, 지르코니아에서 영상 왜곡은 미미했지만, 골드 크라운에서는 선속경화현상이 심하게 발생하였고, 영상 왜곡이 나타났다. 따라서 치과보철물의 금속종류는 SUV 값에 영향을 미치기 때문에 치과 보철물 중에서 골드 재질을 사용한 환자를 진단할 때에는 영상 판독 시 보정된 PET 영상보다는 NAC(무보정) PET 영상을 확인한다면 판독에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.
