Recently implant supported single crown is the popular treatment option to replace a single missing tooth. The purpose of this retrospective study was to analyze and evaluate the survival of implants with the $TiUnite^{TM}$ surface for single tooth replacement. From September 2002 to December 2006, 269 TiUniteTM surfaced implants were used in single tooth replacements at the Institute of Oral Health Science, Samsung Medical Center. Twenty one cases were excluded because of neighbor implants, missing records & short follow up period. Among 248 implants, the 129 implants (52.0%) were inserted in the maxilla and 119 (48.0%) in the mandible. One hundred implants placement (40.3%) were combined with guided bone regeneration, and 36 implants placement (14.5%) were combined with sinus bone augmentation. Mean observation period was $26.0{\pm}11.8$ months after implant placement. Twelve implants were recorded as failures, rendering a single implant survival rate of 95.2% over the observation period. Among failed 12 implants, 10 implants placed in the maxilla. The survival rate in the maxilla was 92.2% and in the mandible was 98.3%. The use of $TiUnite^{TM}$ surfaced single implant placement showed high survival rate for short time period.

치과용 임플란트(Implant)란 상실된 자연치아를 대신하여 골 내에 매식하는 인공치근을 말한다. 임플란트는 인접 자연치아의 보호, 심미적 안정 등의 장점으로 인해 그 수요가 늘어나고 있으며, 단일치아 임플란트의 경우, 부분 무치악 환자들에게 있어서 우수한 치의학적 해법이 되어왔다. 대부분의 임플란트는 두 개 이상의 구성요소로 이루어져 있으며, 각각의 구성요소는 나사에 의해 결합되어 있다. 많은 연구결과를 통해, 임플란트의 나사 풀림 현상(Screw loosening)은 임플란트와 관련하여 가장 흔한 문제로 나타나고 있다.(중략)

In the case of single tooth replacement, a fixed prosthesis or a dental implant is the treatment option commonly selected as first choice. However, any amount of sound tooth structure should be removed to prepare the abutment teeth for full coverage retainer. The adjacent tooth damage can be avoided placing a dental implant. However, depending on the patient's oral condition and any other circumstances, it may be impossible or delayed. In this case resin bonded fixed partial denture was selected as an alternative that can restore single tooth loss without much tooth structure removal to the young patients and the patients with gingival recession. We report these patients were satisfied with esthetic and function.

Purpose: After the introduction of concept of osteointegration, dental implantology have been successful procedure in the dental field. Recently, it has shown successful results when used to restore single tooth missing. Considering the difference in bone quality of the mandible and maxilla, and the increased occlusal force in the posterior region, the success rates in each region may be different. In this study, success rates of single implants placed in the mandibular first and second molar areas were analyzed. Materials and methods: The subjects were patients (284 patients, 308 implants) who had been operated with single implant installation from 2002 to 2009 in seven dental clinics in Daegu city. One hundred sixty eight implants were placed in the mandibular 1st molar and 140 implants were placed in the mandibular 2nd molar. They were analyzed according to implant site, age, sex, length and diameter. Results: The survival rates of single implant of this study were 97.6% in the mandibular 1st molar and 92.9% in the mandibular 2nd molar. In the mandibular 1st molar, 4 implants were failed. In the mandibular, 2nd molar, 10 implants were failed. Conclusion: The restoration of the mandibular 1st molar using single implant was found to be clinically acceptable treatment and showed higher survival rate than mandibular 2nd molar single implant. Single implant in mandibular 2nd molar needs careful consideration of poor bone quality, risk of overloading and anatomical structure of the mandible.

Axial displacement of an implant-supported prosthesis is frequently reported in clinical and laboratory studies. However, limited information is available about the behavior of the axial displacement of implant-supported prostheses functioning in intraoral situations. The present case report evaluated the three-dimensional displacement of posterior single implant-supported prostheses in 2 different patients. Internal connection type implants were placed, and screw and cement-retained prosthesis (SCRP) type prosthesis were delivered after an appropriate healing period. Intraoral digital scans were performed using an intraoral scanner (Cerec Omnicam, Dentsply Sirona, USA) on the day of crown delivery and one week, one month, and one year after delivery. The amount of 3-dimensional displacement of the prosthesis was evaluated by using a digital inspection software (Geomagic Control X, 3D systems, USA). The axial displacement of implant-supported prosthesis occurred in both patients. Furthermore, the amount of displacement increased over time.

성장기 환자에서의 각 부위별 임플란트 식려 시기를 요약해보면 다음과 같다. 1) 상악전방부 : 외상이나 선천적 결손을 해결하는 방법으로 임플란트를 사용하는 술식이 권장하지만 성장이 완료되지 않았기 때문에 야기되는 문제를 해결하기 위해 성장이 완료될 때까지 연기하는 것이 좋다. 2)상악 후방부: 수직적인 성장량이 최고 1cm까지 일어날 수 있으면 상악동의 흡수로 조기에 임플란트 침강과 치근부의 노출을 야기할 수 있다. 그리고 동시에 보철에 의한 구개열의 횡적인 성장방해를 피해야한다. 3) 하악 전방부 : 무치증 아이에서 임플란트의 조기식립이 적응증이 되는 유일한 곳으로 치아가 없을 때는 치조골의 성장이 최소이며 초기에 횡적, 후방 성장이 대부분 완료된다. 그러나 단일 임플란트 식립은 권장되지 않는다. 4)하악후방부: 늦게까지 성장변화가 지속되기 때문에 전후방, 횡적, 수직적 성장의 많은 양이 일어난다. 하악의 회전성장의 영향을 많이 받아 하악 무치악에서 조기 임플란트 사용한 보고도 적고. 자연치아에 인접하여 임플란트를 식립한 기록은 있으나 골격성장이 완료될 때 까지는 식립하지 않는 것이 좋다.

The labio-palatal location of the implant in the maxillary anterior region is one of the important factors affecting the aesthetics of the implant prosthesis. However, the thin labial bone of maxilla could be absorbed in significant amounts after extraction of the teeth, which makes the implant be placed on the palatal side rather than the ideal location. In fact, in the cases of maxillary central incisor loss, UCLA was used for prosthetic restoration of palatally placed implant. In addition, with multidisciplinary treatment, GBR (Guided Bone Regeneration) was performed for compensating the absorbed alveolar bone and adjacent anterior tooth were aligned. Definitive restoration was performed after confirming aesthetic recovery of the gingiva with sufficient provisional restoration period. There were satisfactory results of functional and esthetic recovery of tooth loss through implant prosthesis.
