많은 윤활 부품의 성능과 수명은 초기작동기간에 금속표면에서 일어나는 현상들에 의하여 좌우된다. 특히 혼합마착구역(Mixed film region)에서나 윤활막의 두께가 몇십 마이크론의 정도가 되는 EHD(Elastohydrohynamic)윤활구역에서 작동하는 경우엔 더욱 중요하다. 이러한 경험적 현상에 의해 상대운동하는 두마찰면의 초기 작동과정을 길들이기(run-in, breaking-in)라고 부르고 "마찰 부분의 형상이나 마모 및 윤활 마찰특성이 향상되어가는 과정" 으로 정의한다. 보통 길들이기 과정이 끝나면 표면 모양은 더이상 변하지 않고 마모나 마찰 특성이 일정하게되며 이 단계를 정상 상태라고 부른다. 길들이기과정이 중요시되는 것은 이 과정에서 마모는 정상 상태보다 심하고 Scuffing 혹은 Scoring현상이라고 부르는 마찰면 손상의 가능성이 항상 존재하기 때문이다. 이 현상은 보통의 마모나 부식 또는 피로파손의 형태와는 달리 갑작스런 발생으로 부품이나 기관의 부분적 혹은 완전 파손을 유발함으로써 설계나 제조 과정에 문제를 제기하는 요인으로 오래전부터 알려져 왔다.부터 알려져 왔다.

Tooth wear is a multifactorial condition, leading to the loss of dental hard tissues. While for many years, tooth wear was a condition of little interest in daily clinical practice, nowadays this is changed. Tooth wear is becoming increasingly significant in maintaining the long-term health of the dentition. This becomes especially important when the dentition is kept relatively intact in the contemporary ageing population, and edentulism is decreasing. There is also evidence that the prevalence of tooth wear is growing. It is a natural consequence of the unidirectionality of tooth wear that it is frequently used as a means of individual age estimation. Tooth wear was very serious in ancient populations up to the medieval period. Tooth wear is thus studied in a wide variety of areas. The purpose of this paper is to summarize and analyze the many issues surrounding tooth wear through recent studies in various fields and to search for future research direction.

미국 과학재단의 주최로 Tribology에 관한 심포지움이 개최되어 산업계, 학계 및 공사립 연구기관에서 종사하는 세계적으로 저명한 Tribology 전문가들이 Tribology의 기본연구에 관해 토론하고 장차 연구의 방향을 설정한 바 있다. 이때 작성된 보고내용을 요약하여 정리하였다. 토론된 많은 내용중에 다음의 4개 분야가 연구의 중심대상이 되어야 함에 의견을 모았고 그들은 아래와 같다. 1. 마찰, 마모 및 손상에 대한 model 예측 2. 윤활에 관한 미시적 및 화학적 관점에서의 해석 3. 미시적 관점에서 마모 메카니즘 해석과 그 예방 4. 높은 온도에 사용하기 위한 재료와 윤활제 개발 이들 연구는 매우 복잡하므로 학계, 연구소 및 산업계에서 공동으로 연구하는 것이 바람직하고 그 연구결과는 산업전반에 걸쳐 기여도가 매우 클 것으로 결론지었다.

1) Natural gas engine에서 intake valve와 valve seat insert가 exhuast valve와 valve seat insert보다 마모가 심하다. 2) Ceramic valve seat insert을 금속재료를 사용하는 것이 보다 더욱 효과적이다. 즉 적어도 3배 정도 마모가 적게 일어난다. 3) Ceramic valve와 ceramic valve seat insert로 결합한 경우 valve face 또는 stem 부위에서 응력이 집중되어 파손된다. 따라서 현재의 ceramic valve design methodology로는 ceramic valve은 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 없다. 4) 가장 효과적인 결합은 Tribolloy 800의 hardfacing 합금의 valve와 질화규소의 valve seat insert이다.

Patients often seek rehabilitative treatment for severely worn dentition. The etiology of noncarious tooth wear due to attrition, abrasion, and erosion is multifactorial. To treat the worn dentition, it is important to identify and eliminate and/or control the factors that contribute to excessive wear. Many situations requiring complete mouth rehabilitation present with the challenge of a lack of restorative space. To establish a correct occlusal plane and space for prostheses, it is necessary to increase vertical dimension. This may require an increase in occlusal vertical dimension. Also clinicians should be able to choose the appropriate restorative materials to achieve excellence in natural esthetics as well as proper biomechanics and durability. This article presents a method for altering occlusal vertical dimension to restore dentitions with limited restorative space due to loss of tooth structure.

Inadequate or unstable posterior support cause extrusion of antagonistic teeth and overloading of remaining teeth. Extrusion of antagonistic teeth result in collapsed occlusal plane and decreased prosthetic space. Also, overloading of remaining teeth increase occlusal wear or anterior extrusion of anterior teeth, which is resulting in loss of anterior guidance, disharmony of occlusion and decreased prosthetic space. In this case, careful evaluation of OVD(occlusal vertical dimension) is the general first trial to regain appropriate function and esthetics. Simultaneously, adequate anterior guidance and harmonious occlusal plane should be established in the repeatable reference position of the mandible. We report this case because severely worn dentition achieved functional and esthetic results from full mouth rehabilitation with increased vertical dimension and use of centric relation.

Severe dental attrition causes pathological changes of the tooth, imbalanced occlusion, and functional and aesthetic complications and can also result in a decrease in occlusal vertical dimension that can incur temporomandibular joint and muscular complications. Before restoring the vertical dimension with full-mouth prosthetic restorations, it is important to determine the amount of vertical lifting through complete diagnosis. In this study, a 59 year-old male patient with generalized attrition and fracture of teeth was treated with full-mouth zirconia prosthetic restoration in order to recover vertical dimension and aesthetics. Through the analysis of physiologic rest position and inter-canine distance, the treatment was planned for lifting 3 mm in vertical dimension. Interim crown were fabricated after full-mouth wax up, having the patient use for 6 months. The final monolithic and bilayered zirconia restorations were completed. The patient showed satisfaction in function and aesthetics for 18 months of follow-up since delivering the final restorations.

In the oral cavity, the teeth undergo wear and corrosion throughout their lives. Progressive and constant tooth wear is a natural phenomenon of aging, but wear and corrosion due to specific factors are pathological factors. It can cause pathological damage of the occlusal surface, aesthetic problems, dimensional loss and jaw joint disorders. This case is a 26-year-old female patient with general tooth abrasion and erosion on the entire dentition. Diagnostic wax-up was fabricated based on the information including digital facial analysis, physiological stabilization, and evaluation of anterior crown length. Through the digital analysis, the necessary guides for crown lengthening were prepared and the mastication function and esthetics were evaluated by using temporary crowns. Definitive prosthesis was fabricated with the zirconia restorations. The results were satisfactory when they were observed 3 months of follow-up.

Excessive tooth wear causes loss of tooth structure, disharmony of occlusal plane, functional and esthetic problems. Although the decrease of occlusal vertical dimension may be compensated by growth of alveolar bone, if the length of tooth is not enough for the retention of restoration, minimum increase of occlusal vertical dimension is required without discomfort of the patient. In this case, 33-year-old woman drinks more than 1 liter of soft drinks a day and has bruxism in night time, visited in Seoul National University Dental Hospital with chief complaint of generalized tooth wear and related esthetic and functional problems. It was considered as a loss of occlusal vertical dimension based on the accelerated tooth wear caused by erosion and bruxism and facial appearance, phonetic, esthetic, functional evaluations. It was planned to raise occlusal vertical dimension by provisional restoration two times for patient's adaptation, 3 mm and 2 mm each, total 5 mm. Confirming no discomfort and clinical symptom during total 16 weeks after restoration with provisional fixed restoration, it was restored with porcelain fused to gold crown and bridge. Because the patient was young woman, anterior teeth were restored with collarless porcelain fused to gold crown. This case presents that satisfactory esthetic and functional result by full mouth rehabilitation with increase of occlusal vertical dimension.

Severely worn dentition is frequently multifactorial. It is crucial that the etiology of excessive wear be determined, but accurately diagnosing the factors responsible for tooth wear is often confusing. Before initiating the treatment of these cases, meticulous examination and determining vertical dimension are essential. A 69-year-old male patient had the chief complaint that he has worn dentition and functional and esthetic discomfort. Based on model analysis and diagnostic wax up, new vertical dimension had been determined. Provisional restorations were cemented and after 5 months permanent prostheses were fabricated. This case reports a satisfactory functional and esthetic clinical outcome achieved by restoring the vertical dimension.
