  • 본 연구에서는 치과용 주조합금의 개발을 위하여 Ni-Cr 및 Ni-Cr-Ti합금을 소결체를 제조하고 그 표면특성을 조사하였다. 결정조직은 Ti가 참가되면 결정립이 미세화되는 경향을 나타내었으며 Ti가 첨가되면 결정구조가 다르게 나타났다. Ti함량이 증가할수록 경도 값은 증가하였으며 Ti가 10wt% 첨가되었을 때 가장 높은 값을 보였다. 또한 압분체 < 소결체 < 벌크상태로 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 부식실험 결과 내식성은 Ti 함량이 증가함에 따라 증가하는 경향을 보였으며 벌크상태의 시편이 가장 좋은 내식성을 보였다.

  • In this study, an investigation was made on bristles for the prosthetic and periodontally involved patients based on the previous studies. The purpose of this study was to investigate the ideal location and dimensions of bristles for the patients who were installed with fixed prostheses and severely involved periodontitis. 3D scanner was used to develop 3D visual models of bristles and teeth. These models were developed to be used for designing the ideal bristles for the prosthetic and periodontally involved patients. For the ideal design of bristle, interproximal area of dental arch and bristle must get into maximum and standard teeth may have to be chosen from many gypsum molds. During the design process the factors should be considered that influence the removal of plaque by bristle.

  • The aim of this study was to develop an ultrasonic tooth-whitening apparatus using piezoelectric transducers, which enhance bleaching efficiency by applying ultrasound, while performing a teeth whitening procedure. For this purpose, an ultrasonic transducer was designed and manufactured, and the effects of reduction in the whitening material's concentration and in the whitening treatment time through using the ultrasound cavitation phenomenon were confirmed. Also, the validity of this study was investigated by comparing the whitening performance with a commercialized optical whitener, through color comparison. The results revealed that the ultrasound whitener produced color values that were enhanced by as much as double that of the conventional LED light whitening method. Even when the operational time was reduced by half, the ultrasound method showed superior performance by over 54% compared to the conventional light whitener, revealing that the ultrasound method showed a remarkable treatment reduction effect.

  • Defect region segmentation of TFT-LCD images is performed by combining defect pixels detected by a defect detection method into defect region, or by using morphological operations to segment defect region. Therefore, the result of segmentation of the defect region is highly dependent on the defect detection result. In this paper, we propose a method which segments defect regions sequentially according to the possibility of being included in defect regions in TFT-LCD images. The proposed method repeats the process of detecting a seed using the median value and the median absolute deviation of the image, and segments the defect region using the seeded region growing method. We confirmed the superiority of the proposed method to segment defect regions using pseudo-images and real TFT-LCD images.

  • In this progressed super-impose individual recognition system, the photograph of a skull was caught by CCD-camcoder with the MPEG, and an ante-mortem photograph was read by scanner. These two images were processed and superimposed using horizontal angle and vertical angle of face using the forensic dental medicine theory. The enhancement of super-impose individual recognition by anatomical references was performed on the two superimposed images of the same angle using the facial triangle and histogram analysis scheme.

  • A glucanhydrolase (a DXAMase exhibiting both dextranolytic and amylolytic activities) from Lipomyces starkeyi KSM 22 hydrolyzed polysaccharides having ${\alpha}-(1{\rightarrow}3)-,\;{\alpha}(1{\rightarrow}4)-,\;and\;{\alpha}-(1{\rightarrow}6)$-D-glucosidic linkages. The oral hygiene benefits of DXAMase-containing mouthwash were examined in relation to human experimental gingivitis during a 3-week period without brushing. The DXAMase-treated group exhibited a lower increase in plaque accumulation and gingival index score than the chlorhexidine-treated group. The DXAMase-treated group also showed less tongue accumulation, bad taste, and tooth staining, thus indicating a positive role for DXAMase as an antiplaque agent ingredient.

  • In this paper the impact force which occurs on each tooth of jaw-bones while masticating is calculated through the rigid body dynamic analysis. This analysis is done by ADAMS. The impact force calculated in this paper is required for the structural stress analysis of implant system which is needed for the implant system design. The analysis results show that the impact time decreases as the impact force increases, the largest impact force occurs on the front tooth and the impact force is almost normal to the tooth surface together with slight tangential force.

  • Accurate acquisition of surface geometries such as machined surfaces, biological surfaces, and deformed parts have been very important technique in scientific study and engineering, especially for system design, manufacturing and inspection. Two-camera method keeps accuracy more than double than mechanical method. In this paper, a new method is studied to acquire 3D geometric data of the small object such as a die in stone model. When the devices, cameras, laser beam and object are in a perfect plane, the calculation is measured by position error 0.025[mm] within. But this paper shows that arbitrarily positioned system can also be used to obtain 3D data. Also, this paper present a method to generate coping surface data with which CAM system can do for milling work.
