Abstract

Fracture causes serious problems in many instance of prosthetic failures. But it is hard to find the definite causes when fractures occur. Fractography encompasses the examination of fracture surfaces that contain features resulting from the interaction of the advancing crack with the microstructure of the material and the stress fields. All fractured specimens(implant retaining screw) retrieved from Gangneung-Wonju national university dental hospital for 3 years(from 2007 to 2009). After pretreatment of samples, the scanning electon microscope were used for surface examination and fracture analysis. In case of most of the fractured specimens, fracture took place by fatigue fracture and fractured surface represents fatigue striation. Fatigue striation indicate the progression of the crack front under cyclic loading, are characteristic of stage 2 crack growth. The site of crack initiation and stage 1 crack growth were not easily identified in any of the failure, presumably because of the complex microstructural features of the polycrystalline sample. In case of fractured by overload, dimpled or cleavage surface were observed. Using the interpretation of characteristic markings(ratchet mark, fatigue striation, dimple, cleavage et al) in fracture surfaces, failure events containing the crack origin, crack propagation, material deficiency could be understand. Using the interpretation of characteristic markings in fracture surfaces, cause and mechanism of fractures could be analyzed.

보철물의 실패는 파절로 인해 다수 발생하게 되지만 파절 발생시 그 원인을 파악하는 것은 어렵다. 보철물의 실패를 예방하고 예후를 예측하기 위해 보철물의 원인을 분석하는 것이 중요하며, 원인을 밝히기 위해 파절면 분석을 시행하게 된다. 파절면 분석은 파절면 뿐 아니라 주위 환경(응력 상황)에 대한 분석이 동반되며, 이를 이용하여 균열 진행, 파절 양상, 파절 원인 등을 파악하게 된다. 이 연구의 목적은 임상적으로 기능 시 파절된 임플란트 유지나사의 파절면 분석을 시행하여 파절 기전 및 파절 원인(하중 양상)을 밝히는 것이다. 파절된 임플란트 유지나사는 3년간 강릉-원주 대학교에 임플란트 유지나사의 파절을 주소로 내원한 환자를 대상으로 수집하였다. 먼저 임상 및 방사선 사진 분석을 시행하였으며, 시편 세척 과정을 거쳐 주사 전자 현미경을 이용한 파절면 분석을 시행하였다. 임플란트 파절면 분석 시 피로 줄무늬, 톱니바퀴 모양, 벽개 파절, 딤플 파절 등의 파절 지표를 통해 제작 금속, 파절 시 하중상태에 따른 각기 다른 파절 양상을 관찰할 수 있었다.
