마그네슘 양극산화 임플란트는 동물실험에서 우수한 골반응을 나타내었지만 이에 대한 임상 연구는 전무하다. 본 연구에서는 마그네슘 양극산화 임플란트의 단기간 성공률 및 안정성, 변연골 흡수량을 평가하고자 하였다. 강릉원주대학교 치과병원의 임상시험위원회의 승인을 거쳐 건강한 부분 무치악 환자에게 마그네슘 양극산화 임플란트를 식립한 후 일반적인 프로토콜에 따라 보철 치료를 시행하였다. 1차 수술, 2차 수술, 보철물 시적, 하중 후 1개월, 3개월, 6개월 평가를 시행하였으며, 매회 내원 시 임플란트 안정지수(Implant stability quotient, ISQ)를 측정하고 구내 치근단 방사선 사진에서 변연골 흡수량을 산출하였다. 반복측정이 있는 분산분석법을 이용하여 통계적 분석을 시행하였다. 총 50명에게 식립된 101개의 임플란트 중 골유착에 실패한 임플란트는 없었으며, 하중 후 6개월 성공률은 100%였다. 평균 ISQ는 시간이 경과함에 따라 증가하였으며 여성보다 남성에서, 상악보다 하악에서 높게 나타났다 (P<.05). 하중 6개월 후 골질이 양호할수록, 고정체 직경이 클수록 높은 ISQ 값을 보였다 (P<.05). 하중 후 6개월간 평균 변연골 흡수량은 0.26 mm로 관찰되었으며 하악보다 상악에서, 여성보다 남성에서 더 많은 흡수가 관찰되었다. 본 연구의 마그네슘 양극산화 임플란트의 6개월 성공률은 100%이며, 낮은 골질에서도 우수한 골유착이 관찰되었다. 안정성과 변연골 수준 또한 만족스러운 결과를 보였지만 더욱 장기적인 임상연구가 필요하다고 사료된다.

목적: 외측 육각형과 내측 원추형 연결부로 설계된 임플란트 지지 하악 구치 수복물에 교합력을 가할때 발생하는 생역학 현상을 분석하고자 한다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 외측 연결형 임플란트(EXHEX)와 내측 연결형 임플란트(INCON) 그리고 이와 결합할 해당 나사와 지대주 및 크라운을 제작하였고, 하악 무치악 치조골을 설계하였다. 각 부분을 조립하여 2종의 유한요소 모형을 제작하였다. 총 120 N 크기의 수직력(L1)과 45도 측방력(L2)을 가하였고, 유한요소 응력 분석을 시행하였다. 결과: L2 측방력 하중에 의해 발생한 최대 응력은 L1 수직력 하중에 의한 것 보다 6 - 15배 더 컸다. INCON 모델은 EXHEX 모델보다 크라운 교두부에서 2.2배 더 큰 변위량을 보여 주었다. 측방력에 의해 EXHEX 모델은 나사에서, INCON 모델은 임플란트 고정체의 상단 변연부에서 폰미세스 응력의 최대값이 관찰 되었다. INCON 모델에서는 임플란트 내부 계면에서 긴밀한 접촉이 유지 되었다. 결론: 측방력이 큰 변형과 응력을 발생하였으나, 임플란트에서의 최대 응력 발생부위는 INCON과 EXHEX 모델이 서로 상이하였다.

Since the treatment of edentulous patients with osseointegrated implant was first introduced more than 30 years ago, implant therapy has become one of the most important dental treatment modalities today. Based on the previous experience and knowledge, $Br{\aa}nemark\;Novum^{(R)}$ protocol was introduced with the concept of simplifying surgical and prosthetic technique and reducing healing time recently. This protocol recommends the installation of three 5mm wide diameter futures in anterior mandible and the prefabricated titanium bars for superstructure fabrication. This study was designed to analyze the stress distribution at fixture and superstructure area according to changes of fixture number, diameter and superstructure materials. Four 3-dimensional finite element models were fabricated. Model 1 - 5 standard fixtures (13mm long and 3.75mm in diameter) & superstructure consisted of type IV gold alloy and resin Model 2- 3 wide diameter fixtures (13mm long and 5.0mm in diameter) & superstructure consisted of type IV gold alloy and resin Model 3-3 wide diameter fixtures (13mm long and 5.0mm in diameter) & superstructure consisted of titanium and resin Model 4-3 wide diameter fixtures (13mm long and 5.0mm in diameter) & superstructure consisted of titanium and porcelain A 150N occlusal force was applied on the 1st molar of each model in 3 directions - vertical($90^{\circ}$), horizontal($0^{\circ}$) and oblique($120^{\circ}$). After analyzing the stresses and displacements, following results were obtained. 1. There were no significant difference in stress distribution among experimental models. 2. Model 2, 3, 4 showed less amount of compressive stress than that of model 1. However, tensile stress was similar. 3. Veneer material with a high modulus of elasticity demonstrated less stress accumulation in the superstructure. Within the limites of this study, $Br{\aa}nemark\;Novum^{(R)}$ protocol demonstrated comparable biomechanical properties to conventional protocol.

본 연구에서는 임플란트 디자인이 주입회전력과 주변 응력에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 삼차원 유한 요소 분석을 이용하여 유효 응력과 모멘트 그리고 축력을 측정, 비교 조사하였다. 나사형 임플란트 매식체의 디자인을 4종의 평행형과 7종의 근첨형으로 구분하였고 하악골 소구치 부위에 식립한 것으로 가정하여 유한 요소 모델을 제작하였다. 각각의 임플란트가 식립될 때 주변부에 발생하는 응력을 분석하였으며 그 결과 근첨형 임플란트가 평행형 임플란트에 비해 높은 식립 회전력을 보여 초기 고정력이 우수할 것으로 예상되었으나 응력 분산 측면에 있어서는 효율성이 낮은 양상을 나타내었다. 근첨형 임플란트에 비해 평행형 임플란트가 나사산의 높이에 따른 영향을 크게 받는 것으로 나타났으며 근첨형 임플란트는 임플란트 몸체의 경사도가 증가함에 따라 높은 응력이 발생되는 것이 관찰되었다.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to examine the significance of increased bone density according to whether bone grafts were applied using demographic data with Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) and to compare the bone densities between before and after implant prosthesis using the Hounsfield index. Materials and Methods : Thirty-six randomly selected computed tomography (CT) scans were used for the analysis. The same sites were evaluated digitally using the Hounsfield scale with V-Implant $2.0^{TM}$, and the results were compared with maxillary posterior bone graft. Statistical data analysis was carried out to determine the correlation between the recorded Hounsfield unit (HU) of the bone graft and implant prosthesis using a Mann-Whitney U test and Wilcoxon Matched-pairs test. Results : The bone grafted maxillary posterior teeth showed an increase in the mean values from-157 HU to 387 HU, whereas non-grafted maxillary posterior teeth showed an increase from 62 HU to 342 HU. After implantation, the grafted and non-grafted groups showed significantly higher bone density than before implantation. However, the grafted group showed significantly more changes than the non-grafted group. Conclusion : Bone density measurements using CBCT might provide an objective assessment of the bone quality as well as the correlation between bone density (Hounsfield scale) and bone grafts in the maxillary molar area.

Objectives: The purpose of this preliminary study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a customized, three-dimensional, preformed titanium mesh as a barrier membrane for peri-implant alveolar bone regeneration. Materials and Methods: Ten patients were recruited for this study. At the time of implant placement, all patients had fenestration or a dehiscence defect around the implant fixture. A mixture of particulate intraoral autologous bone and freeze-dried bone allograft was applied to the defect in a 1 : 1 volume ratio and covered by the preformed titanium mesh. A core biopsy specimen was taken from the regenerated bone four months postoperatively. Patients were followed for 12 months after the definitive prosthesis was placed. Results: Satisfactory bone regeneration with limited fibrous tissue was detected beneath the preformed titanium mesh. Histologic findings revealed that newly formed bones were well-incorporated into the allografts and connective tissue. New growth was composed of approximately 80% vital bone, 5% fibrous marrow tissue, and 15% remaining allograft. All implants were functional without any significant complications. Conclusion: The use of preformed titanium mesh may support bone regeneration by maintaining space for new bone growth through its macro-pores. This preliminary study presents the efficacy of a preformed titanium mesh as a ready-to-use barrier membrane around peri-implant alveolar bone defect. This preformed mesh is also convenient to apply and to remove.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to visualize and identify peri-implant bone defects in optical coherence tomography (OCT) images and to obtain quantitative measurements of the defect depth. Methods: Dehiscence defects were intentionally formed in porcine mandibles and implants were simultaneously placed without flap elevation. Only the threads of the fixture could be seen at the bone defect site in the OCT images, so the depth of the peri-implant bone defect could be measured through the length of the visible threads. To analyze the reliability of the OCT measurements, the flaps were elevated and the depth of the dehiscence defects was measured with a digital caliper. Results: The average defect depth measured by a digital caliper was $4.88{\pm}1.28mm$, and the corresponding OCT measurement was $5.11{\pm}1.33mm$. Very thin bone areas that were sufficiently transparent in the coronal portion were penetrated by the optical beam in OCT imaging and regarded as bone loss. The intraclass correlation coefficient between the 2 methods was high, with a 95% confidence interval (CI) close to 1. In the Bland-Altman analysis, most measured values were within the threshold of the 95% CI, suggesting close agreement of the OCT measurements with the caliper measurements. Conclusions: OCT images can be used to visualize the peri-implant bone level and to identify bone defects. The potential of quantitative non-invasive measurements of the amount of bone loss was also confirmed.

Statement of problem : The use of permanent magnetics is increasing in implant dentistry. Purpose : This study is to know the effect of permanent magnetics on bone matrix formation of osteoblasts. Materials and methods : The konus abutment-shaped permanent magnetics were connected to the implant fixture, and placed on the culture plate. The osteoblast-like cell Mc3T3E1 were used for cell culture. As the control group, the implants were connected to titanium healing caps, and cultured in the same conditions of experimental group. After 3. 7, 14 days, cells were cultured, and we measured and compared the amount of collagen type I, osteocalcin, which is bone matrix protein by Western immunoblotting analysis. Results: As a result of Western immunoblotting analysis for estimating the amount of bone extracellular matrix, there was no difference between osteoblast of the experimental group and the control group during 3 and 7day-osteoblast culturing. However when cells were cultured for 14days, the amount of bone extracellular matrix was increased, on the experimental group. Conclusion: From these results, magnetic field of permanent magnetics might have effect on bone formation of osteoblast, especially at initial stage of implant placement. Therefore, their clinical application for implant or bone graft could be possible.

Statement of problem : Stress concentration on the neck bone affects the bone resorption, and finally the implant survival. Purpose: In order to examine the stress distribution on the neck bone and prosthesis abutment for implants, decreasing abutment sizes were used. Material and methods : Axisymmetric models were used to obtain the data required. These models were composed of 4mm implants with 3.4mm and 4mm abutments, 5mm implants with 3.4mm and 5mm abutments and 6mm implants with 3.4mm and 6mm abutments. All abutments were designed to received a 10mm high by 10mm diameter gold crown. Functional element analysis was used to obtain these results using data that consisted of 50 N vertical and 45 degree inclination forces. Results : 1. Changing the diameter of the abutment on the implant affects the effect of the inclination forces more than the effect of the vortical forces. 2. Changing the diameter of the abutment on the implant affect the effect of the inclination forces more than the effect of the vertical forces. 3. Experimentation showed that the larger diameter implants provided a decreased neck bone stress, whereas a larger diameter abutment provided a decrease marginal abutment stress. 4. Experimentation showed that the neck bone and abutment received more stress from inclination forces than vertical forces, Conclusions: By decreasing the size of the abutment on the implant we were able to diminishneck bone stress.
