Purpose: Zirconia fixed partial dentures with mandibular 2^nd premolar and 2^nd molar as abutments are fabricated and then the effects of inter-abutment distance on fracture resistance of zirconia fixed partial dentures is studied. Materials and Methods: The materials used in this study are Cameleon S zirconia block and S2 zirconia block, which are divided into CS Group and S2 Group applying different inter-abutment distance for each material, and the sintered zirconia fixed partial denture was luted to the epoxy resin die using a temporary luting cement, and then the fracture resistance was measured by placing a 6 mm diameter hardened steel ball on the occlusal surfaces of the pontics and applying pressure at a cross head speed of 1.0 mm/min on a universal testing machine with a load cell of 5.0 kN. Results: The fracture resistance of zirconia fixed partial dentures is not significantly affected by inter-abutment distance The fracture resistance of zirconia fixed partial dentures in CS Group was significantly higher in 15 mm of inter-abutment distance than in 13 mm and 17 mm of inter-abutment distance (P < 0.05). The fracture resistance of zirconia fixed partial dentures in S2 Group was not significantly different between the three groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion: The fracture resistance of zirconia fixed partial dentures with mandibular 2^nd premolar and 2^nd molar as abutments does not significantly affected by the inter-abutment distance.

Dose distribution of point source represents an inverse square law as the distance, Difference of measurement value and calculation value according to moving distance of radiation source show very large error in dose calculation of Brachytherapy. Therefore, in RALS of high dose rate, dose calculation have an important effect in treatment of uterine cervix cancer and recurrent rate. In this paper, authors measured moving distance of radiation source carrying out RALS. And we measured Rectum dose compared with calculationdose.

연구배경 임플란트에 관한 전통적인 연구들은 주로 임플란트 매식체와 골조직간의 결합에 중점을 두어왔다. 최근 임플란트의 심미적 관점에 대한 관심이 높아지면서 임플란트 주위 연조직의 재건 및 유지에 대한 연구들이 많이 이루어지고 있다. 이번 연구는 임플란트 주위 연조직이 임플란트 지대주의 모양에 따라 어떻게 반응하는지 알아보고자 한다. 연구방법 및 재료 2 마리의 성견을 대상으로, 먼저 하악의 모든 소구치를 발치하고, 3개월의 치유 기간 후에 각 4분악에 실험에 사용된 3개의 다른 모양의 지대주를 가진 임플란트를 식립하였다: (1) 위로 벌어진 모양의 지대주 (2) 안쪽으로 오목하게 좁아진 지대주 (3) 평행한 모양의 지대주. 식립 순서는 무작위로 하였으며, 3개월 후 실험동물을 희생하고 조직 표본을 얻었다. 조직 표본은 광학 현미경을 통해 관찰하고, 상피, 결합조직, 전체 연조직의 수직적 거리를 측정하여 비교하였다. 연구 결과 이번 연구에서 임플란트 주위의 연조직을 측정한 결과, 접합 상피는 1.21 ${\pm}$ 0.47 mm, 결합조직은 1.16 ${\pm}$ 0.39 mm, 전체 연조직 두께는 2.37 ${\pm}$ 0.47 mm로 이전의 연구들과 비슷한 결과를 보였다. 지대주 주위의 연조직 중 결합조직이 많은 부위에서는 여러 주행 방향의 교원 섬유들이 관찰되었다. 그 중에서 결합조직이 차단막으로써의 역할을 할 수 있도록 하는 원형으로 주행하는 교원 섬유들이 모든 지대주 모양에서 관찰되었다. 특히 오목하게 좁아진 모양을 가진 지대주에서는 오목하게 파인 부분으로 많은 원형으로 주행하는 교원 섬유들이 관찰되었다. 오목한 모양의 지대주는 다른 모양의 지대주에 비해서 측면 방향의 연조직 두께가 두꺼웠다. 특히 위로 벌어진 모양의 지대주에 비해서 두꺼운 연조직을 확보할 수 있었으며, 내부에 많은 결합조직 교원 섬유들을 관찰할 수 있었다. 결론 이번 연구에서 오목한 모양의 지대주가 연조직을 두껍게 유지하고, 많은 원형으로 주행하는 교원 섬유들을 확보할 수 있었다. 이를 통해 오목한 여태의 지대주가 연조직 유지에 더 유리하고, 따라서 심미적인 부위에서 연조직의 퇴축을 예방하는데 더 유리하다고 할 수 있다.

Purpose: Increasing use of computer aided design-computer aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) system and number of design software made design of restoration easy and quick. Outcome of restoration has been dependent on dental technician's wax up proficiency, dentists can design restoration for themselves now. This study aims to investigate the outcome of restoration designs, according to handling skill of CAD-CAM design tool. Materials and methods: A patient's mandibular right 1st molar was prepared. After taking impression, stone model was made, scanned the stone model with 3 shape intra-oral scanner, stereolithography (STL) file was extracted. With 3shape dental designer, one dental technician with more than 5 years work experience (designer 0) and three dental technicians with less than 2years work experience (designer 1, 2, 3-group DT) and 4 1st year residents (designer 4, 5, 6, 7-group RT) designed gold crown on the same STL file. Designed crown's MD (mesio-distal) and BL (bucco-lingual) diameter, height of crown, inter-cuspal distance, number of occlusal contact points were compared. Statistical analysis was carried out, test of normality within each group, using independent t-test. Number of contact points were compared, using Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results: There was no significant difference between group DT and group RT. Number of contact points also resulted in no significant difference. Conclusion: The outcome of each designed crowns showed no statistical differences, in values which can be expressed as numbers. Subjective factors were different. With increasing proficiency in handling designing software, fabrication of restorations according to each designer's occlusal concept can be made easy.

This study is to assess the effect of horizontal misfit of an implant supported 3-unit fixed prosthodontics on the stress development at the marginal cortical bone surrounding implant neck. Two finite element models consisting of a three unit fixed prosthodontics and an implant/bone complex were constructed on a three dimensional basis. The three unit fixed prosthodontics were designed either shorter (d=17.8mm model) or longer (d=18.0mm model) by 0.1mm than the span of two implants placed at the mandibular second premolar and second molar areas 17.9mm apart. Fitting of the fixed prosthodontics onto the implant abutments was simulated by a total of 6 steps, that is to say, 0.1mm displacement per each step, using DEFORM 3D (ver 6.1, SFTC, Columbus, OH, USA) program. Stresses in the fixed prosthodontics and implants were evaluated using von-Mises stress, maximum compressive stress, and radial stress as necessary. The d=17.8mm model assembled successfully on to the implant abutments while d=18.0mm model did not. Regardless if the fixed prosthodontics fitted onto the abutments or not, excessively higher stresses developed during the course of assembly trial and thereafter. On the marginal cortical bone around implants during the assembly, the peak tensile and compressive stresses were as high as 186.9MPa and 114.1MPa, respectively, even after the final sitting of the fixed prosthodontics (for d=17.8mm model). For this case, the area of marginal bone subject to compressive stresses above 55MPa, equivalent of the $4,000{\mu}{\varepsilon}$, i.e. the reported threshold strain to inhibit physiological remodeling of human cortical bone, extended up to 2mm away from implant during the assembly. Horizontal misfit of 0.1mm can produce excessively high stresses on the marginal cortical bone not only during the fixed prosthodontics assembly but also thereafter.
