The purpose of this study was to research the recognition of Korean Dental Technicians in Busan region about retitle of the name of 'Dental Technician'(DT), then to figure out the reality of retitle of the name(DT), so to provide data for whole country survey and to drive of the retitle of DT by Korea Dental Technicians Association. For these purpose, 250 subjects were sampled out of dental technicians in Busan, and the survey was performed with self-administered questionnaire. Out of all collected questionnaires, 192 pieces(76.8%) were addressed for this study. 1) Their desires on changing of the name(DT), 57.4%(74/129) was agreed. 2) If they could change the name(DT), they hope 3 main new names and the others, Dental Lab Art Technician(39.2%), Certified Dental Technician(23.0%), Dental Prosthetic Technician(23.0%), the others(14.8%).

Korean dental hygienists perform more tasks in dental clinics than are described in the law. The purpose of this study was to investigate the actual work of Korean dental hygienists in dental clinics using an observational study design. Two dental hygienists observed and recorded the work performed in 1 day from the time of commencement to the time of leaving work by 18 dental hygienists working in the dental clinic in a single area. Data management, prevention of infection, counseling, calculus removal, radiography, assistance of fixed orthodontic treatment, assistance of fixed prosthetic treatment, and preparation for implant surgery were recorded. Among the tasks that take more than 1 min, the most time-consuming tasks were document management, infection control, consultation, calculus removal, preparation for implant surgery, assistance of orthodontic treatment, and assistance of fixed prosthetic treatment. Korean dental hygienists are performing various tasks, such as infection control, dental hospital/clinic management, oral disease prevention, and dental treatment assistants.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of prostheses misfit, cantilever on the stress distribution in the implant components and surrounding bone using three dimensional finite element analysis. Two standard 3-dimensional finite element models were constructed: (1) 3 ITI implant supported, 3-unit fixed partial denture and (2) 3 ITI implant supported, 3-unit fixed partial denture with a distal cantilever. variations of the standard finite element models were made by placing a $100{\mu}m$ or $200{\mu}m$ gap between the fixture, the abutment and the crown on the second premolar and first molar. Total 14 models were constructed. In each model, 244 N of vertical load and 244 N of $30^{\circ}$ oblique load were placed on the distal marginal ridge of the distal molar. von Mises stresses were recorded and compared in the crowns, abutments, crestal compact bones, and trabecular bones. The results were obtained as follows: 1. In the ITI implant system, cement-retained prostheses showed comparatively low stress distributions on all the implant components and fixtures regardless of the misfit sizes under vertical loading. The stresses were increased twice under oblique loading especially in the prostheses with cantilever, but neither showed the effects of misfit size. 2. Under the oblique loading and posterior cantilever, the stresses were highly increased in the crestal bones around ITI implants, but effects of misfit were not shown. Although higher stresses were shown on the apical portion of trabecular bones, the effects by misfit were little and the stresses were increased by the posterior cantilever. 3. When the cement loss happened in the ITI implant supported FPD with misfit, the stresses were increased in the implant componets and supporting structures.

If the implant is planted in the wrong position or direction, it is disadvantageous for stress distribution, and it is easy to cause complications such as screw loosening, abutment fracture, and implant fracture. If the position or orientation of the implant is not good, efforts should be made to minimize the problem through proper implant prosthetic treatment. In this article, the prosthetic method for facilitating future maintenance in cases with poor implant placement or orientation will be presented.

According as the density of prosthetic by casting among the prosthetic restorations is increasing now, the definition and the bounds as to the casting, the method of making the right casting and the establishment of concepts about a minute report and so on, the establishment of the basic principles like those are unavoidable, and then the casting shrinkage must be compensated by setting expansion thermal expansion. Hygroscopic expansion in making the good casting types as we demonstrated that already asbestos lining. We confirmed the fact that the considerable concern about the surface tension and the gas inspiration? Is necessary in making better the casting.

Whether congenitally abscent or lost as the of an accident or pathologic condition, missing lateral incisors present a problem. which complicates orthodontic treatment. The condition requires careful treatment planning and a consideration of the options and outcomes following either space closure or prosthetic replacement. Thos study prasents the clinical cases with maxillary lateral incisors missing. following optimal diagnosis and treatment planning , considerations in treatment in these cases.

The objective of this study was to confirm the validity of classification of dental disability by measuring the dental treatment time required for disabled patients and identify the disability type that requires more of chair time. As a result of measuring a total of 123 patients who were admitted to the Seoul dental hospital for the disabled on Oct. 2014, I was able to make the following conclusions: 1. For dental counseling and check-up, the chair time did not show significant differences between the different types of disability. 2. For periodontal treatment, restorative treatment, root canal treatment, and surgical treatment, the difference of the chair time for dentally disabled patients was significantly longer than that of non-dentally disabled patients. 3. The difference in the total chair time for prosthetic treatment was statistically insignificant. However, each of the prosthetic treatment steps did show statistically significant differences.
