Osseointegrated implant prostheses are to provide normal function without compromising the unique interaction between the tissue and the implant. The essential requirement for the osseointegrated implant prostheses is passive fit of abutment. Therefore, the impression must be accurate and reproduciable since the resultant master cast precisely duplicates the clinical condition. The purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy of the master casts obtained from five impression techniques. Group 1 : To take impression with indirect technique and Impregum F. Group 2 : To take impression with unsplinted direct technique and Impregum F. Group 3 : To take impression with splinted direct technique and Impregum F. Group 4 : To take impression with unsplinted direct technique and Xanthano. Group 5 : To take impression with splinted dierct technique and Xanthano. The results were as follow : 1. In taking impression of Impregum F, there was no significant difference between to use of indirect technique and unsplinted direct technique.(p<0.05) 2. Unsplinted direct technique with Impregum F is less accurate than splinted direct technique with Impregum F or Xanthano and unsplinted direct technique with Xanthano.(p<0.05). 3. There was no significant difference between splinted direct technique with Impregum F and unsplinted direct technique with Xanthano.(p<0.05) 4. Splinted direct technique reproduce more accurate than unsplinted direct technique.(p<0.05) 5. Impression plaster produced less distortion than polyether.(p<0.05) As a result, splinted direct technique with Xanthano was the most accurate technique. As a result, splinted direct technique with Xanthano was the most accurate technique in this study. In addition to dimensinal changes in the materials used, positional errors were also attributed to the mechanical components used in the transfer porocess. Although the errors measured were relatively small, this study demonstrates the potential for distortions with the transfer technique used. Further study is indicated that ?the technique will be able to reproduce the intraoral relationship of implant fixtures reliably and predictably.

Purpose: Immediate implantation presents challenges regarding site healing, osseointegration, and obtaining complete soft-tissue coverage of the extraction socket, especially in the posterior area. This last issue is addressed herein using the double-membrane (collagen membrane+high-density polytetrafluoroethylene [dPTFE] membrane) technique in two clinical cases of posterior immediate implant placement. Methods: An implant was placed immediately after atraumatically extracting the maxillary posterior tooth. The gap between the coronal portion of the fixture and the adjacent bony walls was filled with allograft material. In addition, a collagen membrane (lower) and dPTFE membrane (upper) were placed in a layer-by-layer manner to enable the closure of the extraction socket without a primary flap closure, thus facilitating the preservation of keratinized mucosa. The upper dPTFE membrane was left exposed for 4 weeks, after which the membrane was gently removed using forceps without flap elevation. Results: There was considerable plaque deposition on the outer surface of the dPTFE membrane but not on the inner surface. Moreover, scanning electron microscopy of the removed membrane revealed only a small amount of bacteria on the inner surface of the membrane. The peri-implant tissue was favorable both clinically and radiographically after a conventional dental-implant healing period. Conclusions: Secondary closure of the extraction socket and immediate guided bone regeneration using the double-membrane technique may produce a good clinical outcome after immediate placement of a dental implant in the posterior area.

Excessive heat generation at the implant-bone interface may cause irreversible bone damage and loss of osseointegration. The effect of heat generation in vitro at the implant surface caused by abutment reduction with high-speed dental turbine was examined. Titanium-alloy abutments connected to a titanium alloy screw-implant embedded in an acrylic-resin block in a $37^{\circ}C$ water bath were prepared. Temperature changes were recorded via embedded thermocouples at the cervix and apex of the implant surface. Analysis of variance for repeated measures was used to compare seven treatment groups. Fifty seconds of continuous cutting with air and water coolant caused a mean temperature increase of $1.24^{\circ}C$ at apex and $5.77^{\circ}C$ at cervix. Similar intermittent cutting caused increase of $2.50^{\circ}C$ at apex and $1.64^{\circ}C$ at cervix. But, continuous cutting with air coolant caused a mean temperature increase of $6.47^{\circ}C$ at apex and $5.77^{\circ}C$ at cervix. Similar intermittent cutting caused increase of $6.47^{\circ}C$ at apex and $5.77^{\circ}C$ at cervix. Preparation of implant abutment does not lead to detrimental effect on peri-implant tissues provided that adequate cooling. However, without water cooling, extreme overheating could be provoked, reaching the critical temperature that would lead to irreversible bone damage within only a few seconds.

통상적인 임플란트 치료는 식립 후 약 3 - 5개월 뒤 임플란트 상부 보철물을 제작한다. 이러한 치료과정의 단점으로는 환자가 임플란트 식립 후 보철물이 장착되는 최종 치료 시점까지의 기간 동안 유지력과 저작능력이 떨어지는 임시의 치를 사용하여 생활해야 한다는 것이다. 최근의 임플란트 식립 후 즉시 부하 보철물 치료는 시술 적응증에 따른 제한이 있긴 하지만, 잦은 치과 방문이 어렵고 진료에 대한 협조도가 낮은 정신적, 신체적 장애 환자들에게 더욱 유용하다고 생각된다. 본 증례에서는 삼차원 컴퓨터 유도 수술법을 이용한 임플란트 식립 후 즉시 부하 보철치료를 정신지체장애 환자에서 시행하였으며, 시술 후 좋은 경과를 보였기에 이를 보고하는 바이다.

Cleidocranial dysplasia is rare inherited skeletal dysplasia. It was first reported by Martin in 1765. Subsequently, Marie and Sainton independently documented the criteria of the disease. Cleidocranial dysplasia is a bone disorder caused by a defect in the CBFA1 gene of chromosome 6p21. This gene guides osteoblastic differentiation and appropriate bone formation. Patient with cleidocranial dysplasia has maxillary deficiency, high and narrow palate, prolonged retention of primary teeth, unerupted permanent teeth and supernumerary teeth. Therapeutic options in these patients include of autotransplantation of selected impacted teeth, forced eruption of permanent teeth, full denture, overdenture and implant-supported prosthesis. We report a patient with cleidocranial dysplasia. This patient was treated with implant supported bar overdenture. Despite of gene defect that affects osteoblastic activity, bone remodeling and osseointegration occurred in our patient. So, we report this case with review of literature.

Purpose: This study examined the significance of increased bone density according to time after implantation on maxilla using demographic data with CBCT and compared the bone density between before vs. after implantation using the Hounsfield index. Materials and Methods: Twenty-five implant site on maxilla were selected. Cone-beam computerized tomography (CBCT) scans were used for the analysis. The implant sites were evaluated digitally using the Hounsfield scale with EzImplant TM and the results were compared over time. Statistical data over time was carried out to determine the correlation between the recorded Hounsfield unit (HU) over time and gender difference using repeated ANOVA. Results: The bone density of implantation site over time showed an increase in the HU mean values. Immediately after implantation, bone density was significantly increased than bone density before implantation. Until 6 month follow-up, bone density showed stable increasement. There is no significant difference on gender. Conclusions: Using CBCT, bone density increased over time after implantation on maxilla. Bone density measurements using CBCT might provide an objective assessment of the bone quality as well as the correlation between bone density and stability of implant.

Purpose : Ridge expansion osteotomy (REO) has been introduced when it is necessary to expand narrow crestal ridge with simultaneous implant placement. This study has designed to evaluate the clinical availability of REO. Materials and methods : Subject were patients who had visited Seoul National University Bundang Hospital from July. 2003 to December, 2005 for implant placement using REO by one surgeon. Intraoperative and postoperative complication, failure of initial osseointegration and marginal bone resorption were estimated using electronic medical record and periapical radiography. Twenty?three patients, 8 males and 15 females, mean age 51, ranged 18 to 72, were treated for mean 26 months, ranged from 16 months to 46 months. Results : Mean diameter and length of implants placed at upper anterior, were 3.72mm and 13.32mm each other. Guided bone regeneration and ridge splitting were accompanied in this study. Five cases of cortical bone fracture, three cases of crestal bone loss more than 2mm, 2cases of gingival recession, and 2 cases of infection were noted, but there were no implants removed because of disintegration. Success rate of implant was 91.7%, even if survival rate of implant was 100%. In addition, there were no statistical significance between the success rate of REO and bone graft(p>0.05). Conclusion : Based on the results of the present study, it can be concluded that REO technique is reliable for implant placement at atrophic ridge with adequate height compared to bone graft and other osteotomies for ridge expansion, but care should be taken of esthetic problem such as gingival recession because of crestal bone resorption from trauma by osteotome.

생체 식립형 임플란트의 경우 성공도는 매식체의 골유착 정도에 크게 영향을 받는다. 골유착 시 임플란트의 표면 형상과 하중, 골질의 양 등 많은 요인에 영향을 받게 되므로, 임플란트의 안정성을 주기적으로 점검해야할 필요가 있다. 따라서 임플란트 안정성을 공진 주파수 분석법을 이용하여 측정하기 위해 압전소자 제작과 트랜스듀서의 구조를 설계하였다. 유한요소 해석을 통하여 압전소자와 트랜스듀서의 두께와 크기 변화를 통해 측정 주파수 범위를 10kHz대역으로 맞추었으며, 해석 결과를 토대로 샘플제작과 평가를 실시하였다. 평가 결과 시뮬레이션 해석결과와 유사한 10kHz의 주파수 대역을 가지는 것을 볼 수 있었고, 식립된 나사의 고정도가 증가할수록 주파수가 점차 증가하는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

The use of resonance frequency analysis (RFA) provides a possibility to clinically measure implant stability and osseointegration. The implant stability quotient (ISQ) value of RFA is well known that influenced by effective abutment length and stiffness of the implant in the surrounding tissues. Among these factors stiffness is not accurately defined histologically yet. And the purpose of this study was to find the histolgical relationship of RFA. 17 implants in 3 beagle dogs were used for this study. Among these implants 10 were survived for 7 months, 4 were survived for 3 months and 3 were immediate status after placement. Resonance frequency analyses were conducted and the dogs were sacrificed. Percentage of the bone to implant contact (BIC) in the interface, percentage of the mineralized bone (bone area) within the threads of the implant, and marginal bone level were measured under light microscopy. The correlation between resonance frequency and histomorphometric measurements were analysed and following results were obtained. 1. There was statistically significant correlation between ISQ value and BIC on healed implants. But ISQ value and BIC of all implants were not significantly correlated. (P<0.01) 2. Significant correlation between ISQ value and bone area was not found in this study. 3. There was statistically significant correlation between ISQ value and marginal bone level on all implants as well as on healed implants. (P<0.01).

Purpose: We have developed a new method of segmenting the areas of absorbable implants and bone using region-based segmentation of micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) images, which allowed us to quantify volumetric bone-implant contact (VBIC) and volumetric absorption (VA). Materials and Methods: The simple threshold technique generally used in micro-CT analysis cannot be used to segment the areas of absorbable implants and bone. Instead, a region-based segmentation method, a region-labeling method, and subsequent morphological operations were successively applied to micro-CT images. The three-dimensional VBIC and VA of the absorbable implant were then calculated over the entire volume of the implant. Two-dimensional (2D) bone-implant contact (BIC) and bone area (BA) were also measured based on the conventional histomorphometric method. Results: VA and VBIC increased significantly with as the healing period increased (p<0.05). VBIC values were significantly correlated with VA values (p<0.05) and with 2D BIC values (p<0.05). Conclusion: It is possible to quantify VBIC and VA for absorbable implants using micro-CT analysis using a region-based segmentation method.
