With the understanding of tooth crown biomechanics and the progress of dentin adhesives, bonded porcelain restorations including a porcelain laminate veneer present an extended spectrum of indications for anterior teeth. Porcelain laminate veneer as a restoration offers the conservative solution that balances the functional and esthetic needs of the anterior dentition. Porcelain's stiffness, its surface characteristics, and the biomechanical strength achieved through bonding to tooth surface enable the restoration of the tooth as a whole supporting occlusal force and masticatory function. Namely, the optical effects inherent in the tooth and the lifelike features of the porcelain make that this restoration approaches the ultimate in esthetic satisfaction for both the dentist and the patient. A 49-year-old female patient with the incisal discoloration of upper central incisors and black triangle between the central incisors was referred to correct her esthetic problems with prosthodontic approach. The patient was satisfied with two porcelain laminate veneers that were made according to prof. Magne and Belser's recommendation.

This clinical report presents the clinical appearance and treatment approach in a case of excessive anterior teeth erosion resulted from swimming in a poorly-chlorinated swimming pool. Clinical findings revealed tooth sensitivity, severe enamel erosion resembling veneer preparations, and the presence of anterior open bite. A novel hybrid ceramic (Vita Enamic) was chosen for fabricating full-coverage crowns for this patient. After 6-months follow-up, the tooth sensitivity disappeared and the patient was satisfied with esthetic outcome. The hybrid ceramic restorations can be recommended with no complications.

In the past, restoration of implant crown, ready-made abutment produced by implant manufacturer could only be used. Using straight, angled abutment, there was a limit in adaptation multiple implants. Recently, with the development of implant and CAD/CAM technology, CAD/CAM customized abutment use has become possible which is different from the past when restoration was possible with only prefabricated abutment. Not only it makes emergence profile possible which is similar to natural teeth, but also it makes insertion path possible on CAD in multiple implant restorations. However, on anterior teeth which dental esthetics is very important, another restorations which are formed with natural colored gingiva area could be required. Titanium-based zirconia prostheses which have titanium connection and zirconia structure from 1mm above fixture platform are alternative. Therefore, the purpose of this review is to analyze the characteristics, advantages and disadvantages of the abutment which is used in multiple implant restorations, and to choose right abutment when clinical trials.

컴퓨터 지원 설계 제조 기술(CAD/CAM)의 발전에 따라, 완전한 디지털 워크플로우를 구현하기 위한 첫번째 단계인 구내스캐너의 중요성이 높아지기 시작했다. CAD/CAM 이중스캔 기술은 임시 수복물의 외형을 복제하여 최종 수복물에 반영하도록 하는 방법이다. 이 증례에서는 비심미적인 전치부, 중증도의 마모, 수직 고경의 감소를 보이는 67세 남성을 치관 연장술과 수직고경 회복을 동반한 완전구강회복을 통해 치료했다. 임시 수복물은 구내스캐너와 CAD/CAM 이중스캔을 이용해 제작되었다. 적응 기간 후, 최종 단일 구조 지르코니아 수복물을 CAD/CAM 이중스캔을 이용해 임시 수복물을 반영해 제작되었다.

If orthodontists and restorative dentists establish the interdisciplinary approach to esthetic dentistry, the esthetic and functional outcome of their combined efforts will be greatly enhanced. This article describes satisfying esthetic results obtained by the distribution of space for restoration by orthodontic treatment and porcelain laminate veneers in uneven space between maxillary anterior teeth. It is proposed that the use of orthodontic treatment for re-distribution of the space and the use of porcelain laminate veneers to alter crown anatomy provide maximum esthetic and functional correction for patients with irregular interdental spacing.

This study aimed to compare color matching between single-shade composite resin-restored teeth with various pulp capping materials and the dentin surrounding the restoration through instrumental analysis and visual evaluation of the color difference. Fifty maxillary right central incisor acrylic resin teeth were prepared with standardized Class III cavities on the proximal surfaces. These teeth were divided into five groups: restored with single-shade composite resin only; Ultra-Blend^TM plus followed by single-shade composite resin; TheraCal PT^TM followed by single-shade composite resin; Endocem^® MTA premixed followed by single-shade composite resin; and Well-root PT^TM followed by single-shade composite resin. The color difference (ΔE_ab^*) between the restored area and the center of the resin teeth was measured using a spectrophotometer. No significant color difference was observed in groups restored with only single-shade composite resin, Ultra-Blend^TM plus, and TheraCal PT^TM. The visual evaluation revealed that Ultra-Blend^TM plus exhibited the best color matching score, whereas the Endocem^® MTA premixed and Well-root PT^TM groups showed significantly lower color matching scores than the single-shade composite resin-only group. When opting for single-shade composite resin usage for anterior tooth restorations with the aim of reducing chair time, pulp capping materials Ultra-Blend^TM plus and TheraCal PT^TM provide esthetically pleasing results.

완전 무치악 환자에서 전악 수복시 환자 고유의 악간관계, 교합평면의 위치, 구순지지, 치아형태와 교합양상을 알 수 없기 때문에 그 모든 것을 임시의치에 기록한 후 이것을 최대한 최종 보철물에 반영하여 이상적인 보철물을 제작해 주어야 한다. 본 증례의 환자는 치주질환에 의한 다수 치아 동요가 존재하여 예후가 불량한 잔존치아 전악 발거 후 임플란트 식립하여 임시치아에 환자의 수직 및 수평 악간관계, 교합평면의 위치, 수직 및 수평 피개의 양, 치아 크기, 전치부 길이를 기록하였다. 그 후 임시치아를 스캐너와 CAD/CAM 기술을 이용하는 double scanning technique로 복제하여 임시치아와 동일한 형태의 단일 구조 지르코니아 브릿지 보철물을 제작하였다. 치료 이후 4개월간의 임상 관찰에서 환자는 심미적, 기능적으로 만족하고 안정적으로 유지되었기에 이를 보고하고자 한다.

임플란트는 자각증상을 느끼기 어렵고, 완충역이 없으므로 응력 분포를 고려하지 않는 경우 기계적 실패를 야기할 수 있다. 다수의 상악 전치부 임플란트 수복의 경우 하악의 기능 운동 시 유도를 담당함으로써, 임플란트에 가해지는 측방력의 분산에 중요한 역할을 하므로, 적절한 가이드의 설정이 중요하다. T-scan system을 이용하는 방법은 교합지나 shimstock을 사용하는 기존의 정성적인 방법에 비해, 시간에 따른 교합의 변화와 기능 운동시 접촉되는 치아의 기여정도 및 육안으로 관찰하기 어려운 후방 구치나 반대편 치아의 접촉을 파악하는 등 동적인 교합평가에 유리하다. 본 논문에서는 다수의 상악 임플란트 보철물에 조화로운 전방유도를 부여하기 위하여 T-scan 분석을 활용하는 방법에 관하여 증례를 통해 살펴보고자 한다.

Replacements for natural dentition must fulfil many criteria. An important aspect, especially for the patient, is aesthetic consideration. The shape and colour can be important factors in the aesthetic success of an anterior restoration. In order to allow for proper shape; the outline form, the spatial position of individual teeth and the surface characteristics must be considered. For the colour; translucency, value, chroma and hue must be expressed exactly. The dentist and technicians should catch up these very specific characteristics of the patient and convert them accurately to the restorations with the simplest way.

The critical factors affecting the esthetics of anterior implants can be summarized as following: 1) Correct positioning of implant fixture 2) Enough amount of alveolar bone 3) Optimum volume of soft tissue. The position of implant is probably the most important factor in obtaining esthetic treatment outcome. The 3-dimensional orientation of implant is determined by the position on the alveolar ridge and its direction. Clinicians often try to mimic natural teeth when fabricating restorations. During the course of esthetic diagnosis and treatment, however, one should not forget to consider the correlation between facial pattern, lips, gingiva, alveolar ridge, as well as remaining dentition. Since anterior region is biologically unfavorable when compared with posterior region, one minor discrepancy in positioning of implant can cause esthetically undesirable treatment outcome. If one understands the biological and prosthetic meaning of implant's 3-dimensional position, he or she can achieve superior esthetic outcome in anterior region.
